    Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for access management for reduced capability (RedCap) devices. A method may include acquiring system information from a cell. In some example embodiments, the system information may provide a control resource set zero configuration. The method may also include monitoring a physical downlink control channel based on the control resource set zero configuration. The method may further include receiving, from the physical downlink control channel, downlink control information that indicates a resource allocation for a system information block. In addition, the method may include determining, from the resource allocation whether the cell is barred.

    Abstract: There are provided apparatuses, methods and computer program products. In accordance with an embodiment, there is disclosed a method comprising defining at least one message length related criterium comprising at least a minimum data volume threshold; determining whether transmission of a message using a small data transmission procedure in an inactive state of the user equipment is allowed; and providing the user equipment indication of the usage of the at least one message length related criterium. There is also disclosed a method comprising obtaining at least one message length related criterium comprising at least a minimum data volume threshold; preparing at least one message to a message buffer of the user equipment to be transmitted by a small data transmission procedure in an inactive state of the user equipment; comparing a length of data in the message buffer with the at least one message length related criterium; n constructing a packet from the data in the message buffer for transmission; and transmitting the packet by the small data transmission procedure if the length fulfils the at least one message length related criterium.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method comprising detecting a beam failure on at least one transmission reception point of a plurality of transmission reception points. One or more beam failure indication data is included into a first medium access control (MAC) control element (CE), wherein the one or more beam failure indication data indicates the beam failure detected on the at least one transmission reception point. The one or more beam failure indication data comprises at least a first bit that comprises a first value and a second value, wherein the first value of the first bit indicates a first transmission reception point at least on which the beam failure is detected. The first MAC CE comprising the one or more beam failure indication data is transmitted to an access point.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of wireless communications, and particularly to a technique for performing the beam failure recovery (BFR) of transmission reception points (TRPs) in a multiple-TRP (mTRP) scenario. More specifically, the technique involves defining rules according to which a UE may determine that the TRPs have failed concurrently or the TRPs are considered to fail individually in the mTRP scenario. Such rules are defined based on current counter values of beam failure instance (BFI) counters used by the UE for each of the TRPs. In some embodiments, the rules may be additionally defined based on current timer statuses of timers supervising the BFI counters. By using the rules thus defined, it is possible for the UE to clearly determine when it is required to use the BFR mechanism individually for at least one of the TRPs or concurrently for all the TRPs in one or more cells.

    Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to transmit power control for beam management. The first device transmits a first configuration to a second device. The first configuration indicates information about at least one candidate beam assigned to the second device. Alternatively, or in addition, the first configuration further indicates a correspondence between the at least one candidate beam and a plurality of transmission occasions, where the plurality of transmission occasions are allocated by the first device for transmission from the second device to the first device while the second device is in an inactive mode. The first device detects transmissions from the second device according to the first configuration at the plurality of transmission occasions. Through this solution, a beam management solution and efficient resource configuration for a device in an inactive mode is proposed.
