Abstract: Embodiments of a system and method for random access and scheduling request for new radio things sidelink are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a nUE (network user equipment) schedules a RA (random access) resource in a control channel. The nUE decodes a TAS (transmitter resource acquisition and sounding) payload, received from a wUE (wearable user equipment) in a PRB (physical resource block) addressed to a RA-ID (random access identifier) associated with the nUE. The nUE encodes, in response to decoding the TAS payload, a RAS (receiver resource acknowledgement and sounding) payload in the PRB. The nUE decodes initial access content received via a data channel from the wUE, the initial access content including a pro posed temp ID (temporary identifier) for addressing the wUE. The nUE encode, in response to the initial access content, an ACK (acknowledgement), addressed to the wUE, to accept initial access of the wUE.

Abstract: Examples provide a mobile communication system, a mobile device, user equipment, a network node, a NodeB, circuits, apparatuses, methods, machine readable media and computer programs for mobile device, user equipment, network nodes, NodeBs. An apparatus (10) for a user equipment, UE (100), configured to communicate in a mobile communication system (400) comprises one or more interfaces (12) configured to communicate within the mobile communication system (400). The apparatus (10) comprises a control module (14) configured to control the one or more interfaces (12). Then control module (14) is configured to process reference signal configuration information received by the one or more interfaces (12). The reference signal configuration information comprises information on a reference signal radio configuration information resource, the reference signal radio resource specifying at least one reference signal from a group of two or more reference signals. The two or more reference signals differ in at least one element of the group of a time-frequency resource, a sequence, and a cyclic shift. The control module (14) is configured to enable measurements based on the at least one reference signal.
