Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to report channel state information (CSI) to a base station of a network. The UE receives configuration information from the base station including one or more interference measurement resources (IMRs) to be measured by the UE, determines a noise power for each of the IMRs, transmits a reference channel state information (CSI) report the base station, measures CSI reference signals (CSI RS) transmitted by the base station to determine an interference and noise power for each of the one or more IMRs and transmits a new CSI report including one of i) only interference and noise power fluctuation feedback or ii) multiple signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) or SINR statistics to the base station.

Abstract: Provided is a method for a user equipment (UE). The UE obtains a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) secondary cell (SCell) activation command from a primary cell (PCell) or primary secondary-cell-group cell (PSCell). The PUCCH SCell activation command is used for an PUCCH SCell activation of a target PUCCH SCell for the UE. The UE performs PUCCH SCell activation operations associated with a valid timing advance (TA) and the PUCCH SCell activation command. TA is considered to be a valid TA when the TA meets a preset criterion. The UE generates a channel state information (CSI) report for transmission to at least one of the PCell, PSCell and the target PUCCH SCell. The CSI report indicates that the PUCCH SCell activation is completed.

Abstract: An apparatus may receive a media access control (MAC) control element (CE) from a base station (BS) indicating a secondary cell (SCell) to be activated in an unlicensed band. The apparatus may initiate a timer with an end value in response to receiving the MAC CE and may further adjust a radio-frequency (RF) chain from a first state to a second state corresponding to the SCell to be activated. The apparatus may determine, based on measurements of one or more synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) transmitted from the BS indicating one or more listen before talk (LBT) failures corresponding to the SCell, one or more failed SSB transmissions corresponding to the SCell. Accordingly, the apparatus may readjust, in response to expiry of the timer, the RF chain from the second state to the first state and receive one or more additional SSBs in the first state.

Abstract: Provided is a method for a user equipment (UE). The method comprises acquiring a downlink control information (DCI) configured for multiple-physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) scheduling; determining, based on the number of PDSCHs scheduled by the DCI, whether a codebook group (CBG)-based operation is enabled for the scheduled PDSCHs; and determining, based on the number of PDSCHs scheduled by the DCI, a format of the DCI.

Abstract: A cellular base station (BS) which determines an aperiodic sounding reference signal (SRS) triggering offset configuration specifying an offset between an aperiodic SRS trigger received by a user equipment (UE) and transmission of the SRS by the UE. The cellular base station may determine that the SRS triggering offset should be adjusted. In response, the cellular base station may transmit signaling to the UE specifying a new value for the aperiodic SRS triggering offset. The new SRS triggering offset value may be partly based on a minimum timing offset for the UE and may be contained in a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) or in downlink control information (DCI). Additionally, the new triggering offset value may be applicable for a plurality of component carriers or bandwidth parts. The cellular base station may also determine a new triggering offset value due to conflicts regarding the AP-SRS transmission.
