Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for utilization of an iner-UE coordination message. A UE may receive, from a first UE, an inter-UE coordination message. The inter-UE coordination message may include an indication of a set of resources and an indication of whether the set of resources are preferred resources or non-preferred resources. The UE may be configured to select resources for sidelink communications based on the set of resources indicated in the inter-UE coordination message. The UE may perform differing selection processes based on the set of resources indicated in the inter-UE coordination message. The UE may perform a first process and/or set of processes when the set of resources are indicated as non-preferred and a second process and/or set of processes when the set of resources are indicated as preferred.

Abstract: Reporting capabilities regarding Cross Carrier Scheduling (CCS) with different Sub-Carrier Spacing (SCS) may include generating a message to send to a base station. The message may comprise an indication of a user equipment's (UE's) capability for CCS with different SCS. Based on the UE's capability for CCS with different SCS, a number of unicast downlink control information (DCI) per physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring occasion per span may be processed to determine scheduled resources for downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) signaling or channels. The DL and UL signaling or channels may be processed using the scheduled resources.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE) to perform methods for triggering a change in beam configuration based on UL beam conditions. The UE may detect an unsafe UL beam condition for an UL beam based, at least in part, on an MPE level being exceeded by the UL beam. In response to the detection, remedial actions that to alleviate the unsafe UL beam condition may be performed. The remedial actions may prioritize UL beam quality over DL beam quality and may include reducing a transmit power of the UL beam based on an MPR, triggering an intra-panel antenna switch to a candidate UL beam that satisfies one or more conditions for intra-panel beam switching, triggering an inter-panel antenna switch to a candidate UL beam that satisfies one or more conditions for intra-panel beam switching, and/or signaling a beam failure to a network serving the UE.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) user plane (UP) integrity protection (IP) for a user equipments (UE) and radio access network (RAN) nodes operating in Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access—New Radio dual connectivity (EN-DC). In an attach procedure, a UE may indicate a UE security capability for support of relay node (RN) PDCP UP IP used in LTE. Based on the security capability, a master e Node B (MeNB) security capability, and a secondary g Node B (SgNB) security capability, the MeNB may determine whether to use UP IP between the UE and the MeNB, the UE and the SgNB, and/or in a split bearer between the MeNB and the SgNB.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for reducing likelihood of Random Access Channel (RACH) transmission blockages and thereby facilitate an initial access procedure for new radio (NR) unlicensed spectrum (NR-U) operation in a fifth generation (5G) wireless communication system including an NR node. In some embodiments, a parameter generated by a gNB and received by a UE indicates that, from among a set of consecutive RACH Occasions (ROs), a gap is available for performing a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure before commencing a RACH transmission.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for beam indication latency reduction via a symbol level beam sweeping configuration. A base station may receive, from a user equipment device (UE), a report associated with symbol level beam sweeping. The base station may determine a symbol level beam sweeping configuration. The symbol level beam sweeping configuration may be based, at least in part, on the report. The base station may transmit, to the UE, the symbol level beam sweeping configuration.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. To monitor a PDCCH for CA, a UE may receive PDCCH candidates in a plurality of configured component carriers (CCs). In response to a determination that a maximum number of virtual CCs that the UE is capable of monitoring for PDCCH is smaller than a number of the plurality of configured CCs, the UE groups the plurality of configured CCs into CC groups based at least in part on SCS numerologies and PDCCH monitoring configurations corresponding to span patterns within a slot of a DL subframe. The UE determines a maximum number of blind decoding operations and non-overlapped CCEs for each of the CC groups. The UE then monitors at least a first portion of the PDCCH candidates based on the maximum number of blind decoding operations and non-overlapped CCEs for each of the CC groups.

Abstract: MBS key distribution includes processing group information associated with an MB session context received from an AF. At least a portion of the group information comprises a TMGI. A plurality of session join requests received from a plurality of UEs are processed. Each of the plurality of session join requests include the TMGE and are associated with the MB session context. A request associated with the MB session context for transmission to an MB-SMF is encoded. A response associated with the MB session context received from the MB-SMF is processed. The response includes a key derived for each of a portion of the plurality of UEs using a UE ID and the TMGI. A DL NAS message and an N2 message are encoded for the plurality of UEs and a base station, respectively. The DL NAS message and the N2 message include the derived key.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for channel access scheme enhancements for systems operating in unlicensed higher frequency bands. A wireless device may perform channel access detection (CAD) measurements on a channel at a first periodicity, determine a CAD metric based on the CAD measurements at a second periodicity, and select, for the channel, a first channel access scheme from a plurality of channel access schemes based on comparison of the CAD metric to a threshold. The first channel access scheme may include a first set of channel access procedures that may define physical channels and signals to utilize respective channel procedures. In instances when the CAD metric is below the threshold, the first channel access scheme may include accessing a channel using a first listen before talk (LBT) procedure that is less restrictive than a second LTB procedure used when the CAD metric is above the threshold.

Abstract: Methods and devices for a base station acting as a primary cell to perform dual spectrum sharing (DSS) with a first user equipment device (UE) over a 5G NR connection and a second UE over an LTE connection. The first UE establishes the 5G NR connection with the primary cell and one or more secondary cells. One of the secondary cells is configured in the 5G NR connection to provide downlink control information to the UE for the primary cell, to avoid collisions by the primary cell with LTE control transmissions.
