Abstract:
A method for wireless communication is presented. The method includes receiving pre-configured uplink resource (PUR) configuration information including one or more least significant bits (LSBs) of a hyper system frame number (H-SFN). The method also includes determining a PUR start time based on the H-SFN identified by the one or more LSBs. The method further includes transmitting data to a base station on a PUR identified in the PUR configuration information at the PUR start time.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. Aspects described herein provide techniques and apparatuses associated with synchronizing a preconfigured uplink resource (PUR) release counter between a base station and a user equipment (UE). For example, the synchronization may be performed in connection with the UE entering a connected mode, the base station reconfiguring a PUR, and/or the like. By synchronizing the PUR release counter, misalignment of the PUR release counter between the UE and the base station may be reduced or eliminated. Reducing the misalignment of the PUR release counter reduces the occurrence of a premature release of a PUR, thus reducing UE interference and improving the likelihood of success of the UE's transmission.
Abstract:
Some techniques and apparatuses described herein enable synchronization of a user equipment (UE) identifier between a UE and a base station upon UE identifier reallocation, which enables the UE to use preconfigured uplink resources to reduce latency, reduce signaling overhead, and/or the like. For example, some techniques and apparatuses described herein enable the UE to use preconfigured uplink resources when a UE identifier reallocation occurs between preconfigured uplink resource configuration and use of the preconfigured uplink resources by the UE to transmit uplink data.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) without a radio resource control (RRC) connection to a base station includes receiving system information from the base station and transmitting a data communication to the base station over a control plane without establishing an RRC connection with the base station. A UE in an RRC suspended state may transmit a data communication to the base station over a user plane without resuming an RRC connection with the base station. The data communication may comprise data and UE identity information and/or a cause indication. A base station may indicate resources in the system information for the transmission of the data communication information and receive the data communication over the control plane without establishing an RRC connection with the UE or over a user plane without resuming an RRC connection with an RRC suspended UE.
Abstract:
A method includes sending communication data from a user equipment (UE) to a base station (eNB) during a random access procedure prior to establishment of a radio resource control (RRC) connection between the UE and the base station. Methods may allow a UE to use a message 1 (Msg1) communication or a message 3 (Msg3) communication to send data to a base station prior to the establishment of the RRC connection between the UE and the base station. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication by a wireless communication device are described. A circuit switched fallback from an LTE cell to a GERAN cell is initiated. A system information type 3 message is received. The GERAN cell is accessed based on the system information type 3 message without receiving a system information type 13 message. A circuit switched connection is established on the GERAN cell. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for control channel adjustment for a connected state are described. In some examples, a user equipment (UE) may receive a control message from a base station, the control message indicating a number of repetitions for a downlink control channel (e.g., a narrowband physical downlink control channel (NPDCCH)) for the UE. In such examples, the UE may be in a connected state and may receive an indication to adjust the number of repetitions for the downlink channel for the UE from a first number of repetitions to a second number of repetitions. In some examples, the UE may monitor one or more transmission time intervals (TTIs) for the downlink control channel for the UE based on the second number of repetitions, where a number of the one or more TTIs may correspond to the second number of repetitions.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to transmitting and receiving a group wake-up signal (WUS) in conjunction with an ungrouped WUS. A base station may group one or more UEs in a UE group, while other UEs may not be assigned to a UE group. The configuration of WUS resources and WUS sequences for grouped UEs and other UEs is a challenge. The base station may transmit, to one or more UEs in the UE group, a resource allocation of a group WUS resource within a set of WUS resources associated with a paging occasion that is assigned to the one or more UEs in the UE group. A UE, after receiving the resource allocation, may determine a location of the group WUS resource within the set of WUS resources. The UE may monitor for a group WUS at the determined location in the resource allocation of the group WUS resource.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for an RRC reestablishment procedure between a TN and an NTN. The apparatus may be on a first network associated with one of the TN or the NTN. The apparatus transmits a RRC connection request to establish a connection with a second network associated with one of the NTN or the TN. The apparatus receives an RRC reconnection message from a network entity associated with the second network. The apparatus transmits an RRC reconnection complete message to the network entity associated with one of the NTN or the TN of the second network. The apparatus may transmit a registration update request to the network entity associated with one of the NTN or the TN of the second network.
Abstract:
Apparatus, methods, and computer program products for tracking area code (TAC) based cell barring. An example method at a user equipment (UE) may include receiving, from at least one cell, a system information block (SIB) comprising a tracking area list associated with a non-terrestrial network (NTN) and the at least one cell, the SIB not including a tracking area code associated with a terrestrial network (TN) or the NTN, a supported network of the UE corresponding to the TN. The example method may further include skipping, based on the tracking area code being absent and the tracking area list being present or both the tracking area code and the tracking area list being absent in the SIB, a selection of the at least one cell for subsequent communication.
