    Abstract: Some embodiments include a system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method, and/or computer program product and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for implicit power saving operations for a network-controlled repeater (NCR) in a wireless network. Some embodiments include an NCR that can receive a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format including a first Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) monitoring periodicity, KS1, and operate in an On-state for a duration of KS1. The NCR can detect a skipped PDCCH monitoring periodicity, and operate in an Off-state for a duration corresponding to the skipped PDCCH monitoring periodicity. In some embodiments, the NCR operates with a carrier component (CC) with unpaired spectrum supporting slot configurations time division duplex (tdd)-uplink (UL)-downlink (DL)-ConfigurationCommon or tdd-UL-DLConfigurationDedicated. The NCR can detect from a System Information Block (SIB), a flexible orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol, and operate in an Off-state for a duration of the flexible OFDM symbol.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) configured to report Channel State Information (CSI) to a wireless network. The UE transmits a first sounding reference signal (SRS) on an uplink (UL) channel, receives a first channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) on a downlink (DL) channel, wherein the first CSI-RS includes a first configuration of CSI-RS parameters based on the first SRS, performs first CSI-RS measurements based on the first configuration of CSI-RS parameters, transmits a first CSI report including the first CSI-RS measurements, transmits a second SRS on the UL channel, receives a second CSI-RS on the DL channel, wherein the second CSI-RS includes a second configuration of CSI-RS parameters based on the second SRS, performs second CSI-RS measurements based on the second configuration of CSI-RS parameters and transmits a second CSI report including the second CSI-RS measurements.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for hybrid measurement gap operation. A network-side device may provide a hybrid measurement gap (MG) configuration to a wireless device, the hybrid measurement gap (MG) configuration scheduling measurement operation of the wireless device in accordance with hybrid measurement gap patterns. The wireless device may receive the hybrid measurement gap (MG) configuration, and thus perform measurement operation based on the hybrid measurement gap patterns as scheduled.
