摘要： Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing cross link interference (CLI) measurement indication. For example, a user equipment (UE) includes a transceiver configured to enable wireless communication with a base station and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The processor can be configured to receive, using the transceiver, a configuration message from the base station indicating a plurality of cross link interference (CLI) resources. The processor is further configured to receive, using the transceiver, an activation message from the base station activating one or more of the plurality of CLI resources. The processor is further configured to perform a CLI measurement during at least one CLI resource of the activated one or more of the plurality of CLI resources.

摘要： Systems and methods for beam failure recovery (BFR) are disclosed herein. A user equipment (UE) receives downlink (DL) reference signal(s) on corresponding beam(s) from a base station. The UE performs beam failure detection (BFD) on such beams used for user data to determine whether a beam failure has occurred, and candidate beam detection (CBD) on such beams not used for user data to identify candidate beams for recovering from the beam failure. The BFD and the CBD are based on both uplink (UL) channel performance considerations and DL channel performance considerations, as determined using the DL reference signal(s), such that a beam failure may be determined in the UL, the DL, or both, and a candidate beam may be identified for UL, DL, or both. The UE sends a beam failure recovery request BFRQ with this information to the base station, and the system changes beams accordingly.

摘要： Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing mechanisms for reducing interferences for Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) by, for example, one or more of frequency domain interference randomization, code domain interference randomization, or power control. For example, a user equipment (UE) can be configured to determine a comb offset and/or a cyclic shift for each Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) transmission occasion for the UE. The comb offset and/or the cyclic shift change between different SRS transmission occasions of the UE. The UE is further configured to transmit an SRS to the base station using the determined comb offset and/or the determined cyclic shift during the SRS transmission occasion corresponding.

摘要： A user equipment (UE) is configured to received phase tracking-reference signals (PT-RS). The UE receives configuration information associated with inserting phase tracking-reference signals (PT-RS) into a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) signal, generates a first signal that is to be transmitted over the PUCCH and is configured to include one or more PT-RS and transmits the first signal over the PUCCH. The UE may also generate a second signal that is to be transmitted over the PUSCH and is configured to include one or more PT-RS, wherein the configuration information further comprises configuration information associated with inserting PT-RS into a physical uplink control (PUSCH) signal and transmit the second signal over the PUSCH, wherein the PUCCH and PUSCH transmissions are performed simultaneously over different component carriers (CCs).

摘要： Systems and methods disclosed herein relate to acknowledgement signaling sent by a user equipment (UE) in response to downlink control information (DCI) received from a base station that schedules the use of multiple physical uplink control channels (multi-PUSCH) or multiple physical downlink control channels (multi-PDSCH). Acknowledgement signaling may inform the base station that DCI scheduling the multi-PUSCH/multi-PDSCH was received (or not), so that the base station may reclaim those scheduled resources in the case that the UE remains unaware of them. Methods for performing this signaling include, e.g., the use of HARQ-ACK codebooks (whether in a semi-static or dynamic manner), and aperiodic sounding reference signals (A-SRS). Embodiments involving such DCI received across multiple component carriers of different serving cells of the UE are contemplated. Acknowledgment signaling according to multi-PUSCH/multi-PDSCH subgroups, monitoring windows, acknowledgment signaling enablement/disablement, and the use of DCI to trigger acknowledgment signaling are also discussed.

摘要： A user equipment (UE) is configured to receive synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) from a wireless network to estimate frequency and timing errors. The UE receives a quasi co-location (QCL) configuration between a synchronization signal block (SSB) and at least one of a further SSB or a tracking reference signal (TRS), receives the SSB and the at least one of the further SSB or the TRS and estimates a frequency and timing error for the SSB by combining, based on the QCL configuration, measurements for the SSB and measurements for the at least one of the further SSB or the TRS.

摘要： Described are approaches to multi-cell PUSCH/PDSCH scheduling with a single DCI (downlink control information) in a wireless communication system. In one approach, only one component carrier is configured with the multi-cell scheduling DCIs, with no DCI configured on the other component carriers. In a second approach, all of the component carriers can be configured with the multi-cell scheduling DCIs. In a third option, one component carrier is configured with multi-cell scheduling DCI only, while the other component carriers can be configured with the legacy single-cell scheduling DCIs. In a fourth option, one component carrier is configured with both multi-cell scheduling DCIs and the legacy single-cell scheduling DCIs, while the other component carriers can be configured with the legacy single-cell scheduling DCIs. In the fifth option, all the component carriers can be configured with both multi-cell scheduling DCIs and the legacy single-cell scheduling DCIs. In addition, dropping rules are described for the situations of overbooking, i.e., when the number of PDCCH candidates exceeds the capabilities of the user equipment (UE). Potential dropping rules include following the legacy procedure, and providing higher priority to candidates with user-specific search spaces with multi-cell scheduling DCIs. Also described is the impact on DCI formats to accommodate single-cell and multi-cell scheduling DCIs on the same component carrier. Finally, limits on the number and sizes of the DCIs are described.

摘要： An approach is described for a dynamic off period of a base station within a wireless communication environment and a process for notifying a UE of the same. In a first scenario, the DCI message is modified with newly-defined values indicative of the different power saving states (i.e., “dynamic off states”) of the base station. These power saving states may defined as suspending one or both of downlink transmission and uplink reception. In another scenario, a new notification message is defined. In either case, the notification signal may also include cell and/or beam specific parameters as well as an application delay that defines a start time of the dynamic off period.
