    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for capability reporting for antenna switching, AS, sound reference signals, SRS. A user equipment (UE) can transmit a capability report for AS SRS that includes a plurality of receive antenna (e.g., six or eight receive antenna), and receive SRS instructions based on the capability report. The UE can transmit a first temporary capability reduction for a duration, and transmit a first SRS according to the first temporary capability reduction and the SRS instructions, while maintaining phase continuity. To maintain phase continuity, the UE can calibrate one or more SRS ports participating in the AS SRS to transmit with substantially a same transmit power. The UE can determine that a second SRS overlaps an other transmission in a time domain, determine that the other transmission has an absolute priority over the second SRS, and transmit the other transmission but not the second SRS.

    Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing cross link interference (CLI) measurement indication. For example, a user equipment (UE) includes a transceiver configured to enable wireless communication with a base station and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The processor can be configured to receive, using the transceiver, a configuration message from the base station indicating a plurality of cross link interference (CLI) resources. The processor is further configured to receive, using the transceiver, an activation message from the base station activating one or more of the plurality of CLI resources. The processor is further configured to perform a CLI measurement during at least one CLI resource of the activated one or more of the plurality of CLI resources.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage media for relaxing evaluation of radio link quality. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a terminal device transmits, to a network device, capability information indicating a capability of the terminal device to relax an evaluation of a radio link quality. The terminal device receives, from the network device, a relaxation configuration for relaxing the evaluation. The terminal device performs the evaluation using a relaxed evaluation period determined based on the relaxation configuration. The relaxed evaluation period is longer than a normal evaluation period without relaxing the evaluation.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to configured to use multiple beams for transmission or reception. The UE receives, from a base station, at least one medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) that indicates multiple activated transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states, receives, from the base station, at least one downlink control information (DCI) indicating a subset of TCI states of the multiple activated TCI states, wherein the MAC CE and the DCI are part of a TCI configuration, and wherein the subset of TCI states corresponds to multiple transmission and reception points (TRPs) of a wireless network, maps the subset of TCI states to the corresponding multiple TRPs based on the TCI configuration and selects a beam used for transmission or reception based on one mapped TCI state of the mapped subset of TCI states.
