Abstract: Some embodiments are disclosed for Uplink (UL) Transmission (Tx) switching in a wireless network. Some embodiments a base station (BS) can receive first UL Txs, transmit, a dynamic trigger signal for UL Tx switching, where a number of configured UL Tx switching bands, M, is greater than a maximum number of UL Tx chains, N, where M and N are integers. The BS can receive second UL Txs according to the dynamic trigger signal. In some examples, the first UL Txs and the second UL Txs correspond to a first pair of bands of the M configured UL Tx switching bands, or the first UL Txs correspond to a first pair of bands of the M configured UL Tx switching bands, and the second UL Txs correspond to one band of the first pair of bands and a different band of the M configured UL Tx switching bands.

Abstract: Some aspects relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing mechanisms for providing signaling and procedures to indicate a mode of communication of a wireless communication system. For example, a base station is configured to determine a mode of communication for a cell associated with the base station. The mode of communication can include one of a full-duplex mode or a half-duplex mode. The base station can further generate system information to enable initial access by a user equipment (UE) to the cell. A portion of the system information can indicate the mode of communication for the cell. The base station can also transmit the system information to the UE.

Abstract: A base station can include a transceiver and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The transceiver can enable wireless communication with a user equipment (UE) by a first component carrier (CC) in a first cell managed by the base station in a carrier aggregation (CA) wireless communication system. The processor can generate a system scheduling message to be transmitted on the first CC to the UE in the first cell, where the system scheduling message comprises a schedule of monitoring occasions for system information of a second CC by the UE in a second cell. Afterwards, the processor can transmit the system scheduling message on the first CC to the UE.

Abstract: Current 5G provisions for wireless communications do not allow for the differentiation of channel access by User Equipments (UEs) with different priorities. Approaches are described by which priority access for UEs in a controlled environment using frame based equipment (FBE), and in particular for different UEs or the same UE that has different configured grants. The approaches are particularly helpful for ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) UEs. In one approach, the UE performs a clear channel assessment (CCA) in an idle period before the fixed frame period (FFP), followed by a channel access priority test. In an alternative approach, the UE performs a channel access priority test before the UE performs a clear channel assessment (CCA) in an idle period before the fixed frame period (FFP). Other approaches include setting the fixed frame period length to different sizes for each UE, using a random number of skipped fixed frame periods, and the gNB configuring UEs with multiple semi-static channel access mode parameters.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to provide a power headroom report (PHR) to a network. The UE receives a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) configuration from a base station of the wireless network, wherein the PUSCH configuration includes a plurality of beams over which PUSCH repetitions should be transmitted, determines at least one power headroom report (PHR) based on a power control parameter set corresponding to at least one of the plurality of beams or PUSCH repetitions and transmits the at least one PHR to the base station.

Abstract: Systems and methods disclosed herein relate to confirmatory signaling sent by a base station for the use of multiple physical uplink control channels (multi-PUSCH) or multiple physical downlink control channels (multi-PDSCH) scheduled in downlink control information (DCI) sent by the base station. Confirmatory signaling may be provided in the form of DCI, or in the form of a physical confirmation indicator channel (PCICH). Confirmatory signaling in DCI may confirm multi-PUSCH/multi-PDSCH scheduling according to one or more UE, and according to one or more CC used by each of the one or more UE using a bitmap. Confirmatory signaling in PCICH may confirm the multi-PUSCH/multi-PDSCH scheduling according to one or more UE. In these embodiments, a symbol for each such UE is spread according to different orthogonal covering codes (OCC), and such spreaded symbols are sent to the UE in a resource element set (RES) of a physical radio block (PRB).

Abstract: A wireless communication system may use enhanced feedback indicating a PDSCH decoding outcome. The enhanced feedback may be in an uplink control information (UCI) and carried over PUCCH or PUSCH. The enhanced feedback may be encoded and divided up into two parts of the UCI. A first payload may be carried in a first part of the UCI and a second payload comprising additional feedback information may be carried in a second part of the UCI.

Abstract: An approach to reduce the signaling overhead for tracking reference signal (TRS) configuration signaling to idle and inactive user equipments (UEs) operating in a wireless communication system. Conventional signaling approaches require more bits that can be conveyed in the maximum system information block (SIB) message size. One proposed approach optimizes the signaling by removing unnecessary or redundant information, using a single TRS configuration to replace multiple configurations, size reduction in some fields, and the sharing of some fields across different TRS configurations. Another proposed approach uses an SIB message to carry the TRS configurations for a particular beam or subset of beams. These two proposed approaches may be combined to provide further optimization possibilities.
