    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a wakeup radio in a wireless communication system, e.g., in 5G NR systems and beyond. A UE may report a supported sensitivity with base station provided adjacent channel interference information for a wakeup radio. Additionally, a wakeup radio layer may be configured for the UE to perform synchronization, identification of a wakeup signal, and/or RRM measurement with 1D or 2D ON-OFF patterns. Further, a wakeup signal preamble bandwidth may be configured by a base station and may be constructed with a 1D OOC, a 2D OOC, a Hadamard code, an m-sequence, and/or a Gold sequence. In addition, selection of a particular preamble may be via a function with cell-ID, UE-ID/UE-group ID, and/or time parameters as inputs. Also, there may be a cyclic extension such as prefix and/or postfix to a selected preamble.

    Abstract: A reduced capacity (redcap) device may perform initial uplink communications, including transmitting a redcap physical uplink control channel (R-PUCCH), over an initial uplink bandwidth part (BWP) shared with a second device, the initial uplink BWP having a bandwidth (BW) larger than a maximum BW supported by the redcap device and smaller than or equal to a maximum BW supported by the second device. Frequency hopping operation for the redcap device may be supported for the R-PUCCH transmission through frequency division multiplexing and/or time division multiplexing settings for the resources used for the R-PUCCH transmission, and for PUCCH transmission by the second device. Restrictions may be implemented to create a gap for redcap devices to perform RF retuning between a physical RACH transmission and a subsequent physical control channel (e.g. PDCCH) monitoring for random access reception when the frequency gap is larger than the maximum BW supported by the redcap device.
