    Abstract: Provided is a method for a base station, includes: generating, for transmission to at least one UE, control information associated with SRS transmission, wherein the control information indicates an SRS band including a plurality of RBs for the SRS transmission, the control information indicates a first subband for a first UE and a second subband for a second UE in a same SRS band for an SRS transmission occasion; receiving, from the at least one UE, SRS on a plurality of SRS transmission occasions according to the control information, wherein a location hopping parameter is applied to the plurality of SRS transmission occasions, wherein a first starting location of the first subband for the first UE on a first SRS transmission occasion and a second starting location of the first subband for the first UE on a second SRS transmission occasion are determined based on the location hopping parameter.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for sidelink (SL) resource pool resource use by a user equipment (UE) are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, when the UE performs contiguous partial sensing in addition to periodic partial sensing, the UE performs one of resource selection and resource re-evaluation based a size of a time gap between a slot where the UE has SL data and a first slot of periodic-based candidate slots within a resource selection window. In other embodiments, the UE performs contiguous partial sensing without additional periodic partial sensing in the case where a packet delay budget (PDB) for the SL data is greater than a threshold. In some embodiments, the UE performs periodic partial sensing for resource re-evaluation and/or resource pre-emption according to a set of periodicity values Preserve,re-ev (and optionally period definition data Kre-ev). Restrictions on the use of random resource selection by the UE are also described.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE), baseband processor or other network device (e.g., base station, next generation NodeB, etc.) can operate to process or generate an acknowledgement (ACK) or a non-acknowledgement (NACK) of a beam report to indicate an autonomous transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state update, which can be a TCI update without a corresponding TCI indication/trigger. The UE can determine the ACK/NACK in response to providing the beam report in the autonomous TCI state update. The UE can then activate a TCI state of the autonomous TCI state update in response to identifying the ACK or re-transmit the beam report for autonomous TCI state update when a NACK is recognized.
