Abstract: A WTRU may receive downlink control information (DCI) indicating a start of a frame. The DCI may be received on a control channel, such as the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) from an eNB, base station, AP, or other infrastructure equipment operating in a wireless communications system. The WTRU may decode the DCI and may determine a transmit time interval (TTI) duration, which may be expressed in terms of an integer number of basic time intervals (BTIs). The WTRU may determine a downlink (DL) transmission portion and assignment and an uplink (UL) transmission portion and UL grant based on the received DCI. Additionally, the WTRU may determine the start of the UL portion based on an offset (toffset). The WTRU may receive data in a DL portion of the frame and may transmit in an UL portion of the frame based on the determined UL grant and TTI duration.

Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) is configured to receive a radio resource control (RRC) message. The RRC message may comprise information that indicates an association between each of a plurality of beams and power information. The WTRU is configured to receive a trigger message. The WTRU is configured to select a beam in response to the received trigger message. The WTRU is configured to send a control channel transmission using a power level. The power level may be based on the power information mapped to the selected beam.

Abstract: A system and methods for beam failure recovery and management for multi-carrier communications with beamforming are disclosed herein. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may monitor for and detect a beam failure of a beam associated with a secondary cell (Scell). The WTRU may select an Scell candidate beam. The WTRU may transmit using a selected uplink (UL) resource in a primary cell (SpCell) a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) including an indication of Scell beam failure and identifying the selected candidate beam. The WTRU may receive an Scell beam failure indication response on the SpCell indicating an SCell index and a downlink (DL) quasi co-location (QCL) reference associated with the Scell. The WTRU may verify that the DL QCL reference matches with the candidate beam. The WTRU may perform random access on the SCell using the selected QCL reference and the selected candidate beam.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for panel activation and/or deactivation for uplink multi-in multi-out (MIMO) transmission are disclosed. A device, such as a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) may have one or more antennal panels. Each panel may have an identifier (ID). Based on reported feedback that includes measurement information, one or more panels may be activated or deactivated. In some embodiments, a gNB may determine whether to activate or deactivate a panel. In other embodiments, a WTRU may determine to activate or deactivate a panel.

Abstract: A WTRU may be configured to perform logical channel prioritization. A WTRU may receive an indication (e.g., a mapping) that indicates an association between a first HARQ process ID and a first HARQ processing type and between a second HARQ process ID and a second HARQ processing type. The WTRU may receive an indication (e.g., a mapping) that indicates an association between a first logical channel and the first HARQ processing type and between a second logical channel and the second HARQ processing type. The WTRU may receive an a HARQ process ID indication. The WTRU may determine a HARQ processing type associated with the HARQ process ID. The WTRU may determine a logical channel available for a transmission. The logical channel available to be used may be determined based on the HARQ processing type associated with the HARQ process ID. The WTRU may send the transmission.

Abstract: A method performed by a WTRU may comprise receiving a plurality of LBT configurations associated with one or more of a beam, a BWP, a LCH, a set of LBT parameters, a transmission type or an LBT subband. The method may further comprise receiving an indication to transmit using a first LBT configuration of the plurality of LBT configurations. An attempt to acquire a channel may then be made using the first LBT configuration. The indication to transmit may additionally indicate a second LBT configuration of the plurality of LBT configurations. Data may be transmitted on the channel when the attempt to acquire the channel is successful. An attempt to acquire the channel using the second LBT configuration of the plurality of LBT configurations may be made when the attempt to acquire the channel using the first LBT configuration fails.

Abstract: Systems and methods described herein are provided for beamforming and uplink control and data transmission techniques. Such techniques enable a UE to maintain at least one beam process for operation with multiple beams and/or points. A beam process may be indicated for transmission or reception over a downlink or uplink physical channel. Power, timing, and channel state information may be specific to a beam process. A beam process may be established as part of a random access procedure in which resources may be provisioned in random access response messages. Techniques are provided to handle beam process failures, to use beam processes for mobility, and to select beams using open-loop and closed-loop selection procedures.

Abstract: A WTRU may be configured with a plurality of monitoring patterns. The WTRU may determine, based at least in part upon the particular slot in the downlink channel, monitoring occasions for each of the plurality of monitoring patterns. The WTRU determines PDCCH candidates for each of the plurality of monitoring patterns and evaluates the total number of PDCCH candidates for each of the plurality of monitoring patterns against blind detection limits. The WTRU selects one of the plurality of monitoring patterns for the slot based at least in part on determining the PDCCH candidates for the selected monitoring pattern satisfy the blind detection limits.
