    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) includes a transceiver and a processor. The processor is configured to receive, from a network and via the transceiver, a configuration for a multiple layer physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission using more than one codeword. The processor is also configured to transmit, via the transceiver and in accordance with the configuration for the multiple layer PUSCH transmission that uses more than one codeword, the multiple layer PUSCH transmission. The multiple layer PUSCH transmission is transmitted on at least a first layer of the multiple layers using a first codeword of the more than one codeword, and on at least a second layer of the multiple layers using a second codeword of the more than one codeword.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is related to techniques for configuring a repeater device by control signaling in a wireless communications system. In some embodiments, a repeater device is configured to form separate coverage regions. For example, the repeater device determines a first coverage region based on a first beam at the repeater device paired with a network device, wherein the first coverage region corresponds to a direction such that the first beam falls within the first coverage region for serving a control link or a backhaul link between the repeater device and the network device. Based on a first indication, the repeater device determines one or more coverage regions with respect to the first coverage region, wherein the one or more coverage regions are configured to communicate with a user equipment via an access link of the repeater device.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed to configure different paging occasions for enhanced UEs that support, and for legacy UEs that do not support, the enhanced feature of the paging early indication (PEI) in paging procedure for 5G/LTE networks. Different paging occasions for the enhanced and legacy UEs may be configured by providing separate paging occasion parameters for the enhanced and legacy UEs. The network may use the separate paging parameters to design the PEI to save signaling overhead. The network may reuse paging format for the paging PDCCH to serve as the PEI that is transmitted in advance of the paging occasions for the enhanced UEs, or may keep legacy paging PDCCH at its current locations to serve as the PEI for the enhanced UEs. A scheduling offset may be configured to separate in time the paging PDCCH serving as the PEI and the paging PDSCH containing the paging message.
