Abstract: An apparatus configured to be employed in a user equipment (UE) associated with a new radio (NR) system is disclosed. The apparatus comprises one or more processors configured to select a first resource from a candidate resource set comprising a plurality of candidate resources within a first resource selection window. In some embodiments, the first resource is to be utilized by the UE for a first transmission of a transport block (TB) over sidelink. In some embodiments, a size of the first resource selection window is derived based on a (pre)configured maximum number of retransmissions of the TB. In some embodiments, the one or more processors is further configured to generate a first transmission signal comprising the first transmission of the TB, to be transmitted over the sidelink using the selected first resource.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for mitigation of listen before talk conflicts in the unlicensed spectrum. A wireless device may receive one or more synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) from a base station (BS) as part of a measurement procedure with listen before talk (LBT). The wireless device may determine one or more LBT failures associated with one or more receive beams of the wireless device. Furthermore, in response to determining the one or more LBT failures associated with the one or more receive beams of the wireless device, the wireless device may extend a measurement period for the one or more receive beams of the wireless device. The wireless device may then receive one or more additional SSBs on the one or more receive beams of the wireless device.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for scheduling multiple downlink transmissions using a single downlink control transmission in a wireless communication system. A wireless device may determine a beam configuration for use for receiving multiple downlink transport blocks scheduled by a single downlink control transmission. In some instances, the wireless device may be configured to skip one or more control channel monitoring occasions that overlap with the downlink transport blocks. The wireless device may provide hybrid automatic repeat request feedback for the downlink transport blocks.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining which part or operation of one or more Secondary Cell (SCell) activation process (es) to defer or restart when an attempt to simultaneously perform multiple operations of the one or more SCell activation processes would cause interference. For example, radio frequency (RF) tuning and/or automatic gain control (AGC) settling for an SCell activation may be deferred until after a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) for the SCell activation is sent by a UE to the SCell. In another example, RF tuning and/or AGC settling corresponding to the activation of a first SCell may be deferred until after RF tuning and/or AGC settling corresponding to the activation of a second SCell is complete.

Abstract: Technology is provided for supporting different numerologies for concurrent intra-frequency measurements and downlink data reception. A user equipment (UE) may send a message to the a wireless network to indicate whether the UE supports a mixed numerology wherein a different subcarrier spacing (SCS) is used in a serving cell or a neighboring cell for concurrent processing of at least two of: intra-frequency measurement by the UE of a synchronization signal block (SSB); intra-frequency measurement by the UE of a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) for mobility; and reception by the UE of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) or a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH). Based on the indication, the network may configure at least one of a CSI-RS measurement expectation, an SSB measurement expectation, and a scheduling restriction for reception of the PDCCH or the PDSCH by the UE.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for performing wireless communications by a network in communication with a UE that is moving rapidly. The network may adapt communication techniques in response to the CEs motion. For example, reference signals may be transmitted to the UE from additional transmission and reception points and/or using different configurations.

Abstract: A method for Resource Allocation for Msg-3 Transmission on an unlicensed spectrum may include receiving a random access response (RAR) grant comprising a 12-bit frequency domain resource allocation (FDRA) field. If the resource allocation type is type-1 some embodiments may zero padding the FDRA field to interpreting the 12-bit FDRA and determine a starting position of allocated resources where a Scheduled PUSCH Transmission is transmitted in an unlicensed spectrum. Some embodiments may use a virtual Bandwidth Part (BWP) to obtain a starting position and a length of allocated resources.
