    Abstract: Systems and methods using control signaling for uplink frequency selective precoding at a user equipment (UE) are disclosed herein. A base station may indicate a transmission rank indicator (TRI), a wideband transmission precoder matrix indicator (TPMI), and one or more subband TPMI(s) to the UE. The base station may indicate, to the UE, whether to use the wideband TPMI or a subband TPMI to precode a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission from the UE to the base station. The UE then precodes (and transmits) the PUSCH accordingly. Methods of UE application of the indicated subband TPMI(s) to subbands of the bandwidth in which a PUSCH may be transmitted are described. Methods accounting for a UE capability as to non-coherent, partial-coherent, and/or coherent precoding are described. Methods of assigning TPMI(s) to subbands in view of multiple transmission reception point (TRP) use by the UE for UE transmission are described.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for a wireless device to perform gradual timing adjustments in a non-terrestrial wireless communication system. According to the techniques described herein, a wireless device may establish a non-terrestrial network based wireless link with a cellular base station. The wireless device may detect a trigger for changing a gradual timing adjustment rate from a first gradual timing adjustment rate to a second gradual timing adjustment rate. The wireless device may determine a time window for which to perform gradual timing adjustment at the second gradual timing adjustment rate. The wireless device may perform gradual timing adjustment at the second gradual timing adjustment rate for the time window.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for performing inter radio access technology measurements without a measurement gap in a wireless communication system. A wireless device and a cellular base station may establish a wireless link according to a first radio access technology. The cellular base station may indicate to the wireless device to perform inter radio access technology measurements. The wireless device may determine that it is capable of performing the inter radio access technology measurements without a measurement gap. The wireless device may provide capability information to the cellular base station indicating that the wireless device is capable of performing the inter radio access technology measurements without a measurement gap. The wireless device may perform the inter radio access technology measurements without a measurement gap.
