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: 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: Activating an uplink (UL) gap at a base station may include decoding a user equipment (UE) UL gap capability report received from a UE. A radio resource control (RRC) UL gap configuration may be encoded for transmission to the UE. A power headroom report (PHR) medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) received from the UE may be decoded. The PHR MAC CE may include at least one of a P value or a power management maximum power reduction (P-MPR) value. Decoding the measurement information may include determining that the P value is equal to one or the P-MPR value is greater than zero. Based on determining that the P value is equal to one or the P-MPR value is greater than zero, the UL gap configuration may be implicitly activated.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for configuring, performing, and reporting neighbor cell measurements in a wireless communication system. A base station of a serving cell may provide configuration information relevant to performing layer 1 (L1) measurements based on reference signals of one or more neighbor cells. A UE may perform L1 inter-frequency measurements of the neighbor cell(s) based on the configuration. The UE may report the measurements.

Abstract: A first cellular base station transmits a configuration message to a reporting device installed on a high-speed vehicle. The configuration message specifies one or more parameters of a Doppler measurement report. The reporting device performs one or more first Doppler measurements on the first base station and/or one or more second Doppler measurements on a second base station. The reporting device transmits the Doppler measurement report to the first and/or second base stations. The Doppler measurement report may be used by the first and/or second base stations to perform Doppler pre-compensation on transmissions to the reporting device.

Abstract: Provided is a method for a user equipment (UE). The method comprises determining a first time period for the UE, based on whether the UE uses Discontinuous Reception (DRX) and whether the UE uses Measurement Gap (MG). The first time period indicates a respective timing criterion for the UE to determine a time period of maintaining available downlink timing for a reference cell; The method further comprises determining, based on the first time period, a first time threshold for the UE to determine reference cell availability.
