    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for Timing Advance (TA) validation are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) comprises receiving, from a base station, configuration information, where the configuration information specifying a configured grant (CG)-small data transfer (SDT) resource available for use by the UE and specifying a configuration for a Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) change-based TA validation method to be met in order to perform a SDT while in the RRC inactive state, the RSRP change-based TA validation method having configured TA validation criteria that is evaluated based on two measurement windows for timing advance (TA) validation, and at least one boundary of at least one of the two measurement windows for TA validation is based on a minimum of either a Frequency Range 2 (FR2) measurement period and a scaled Discontinuous Reception (DRX) cycle period, existing at time of TA validation criteria evaluation.

    Abstract: A method for enhanced autonomous uplink timing adjustment includes determining that a user equipment (UE) is traveling above a predetermined velocity. In response to the determination that the UE is traveling above the predetermined velocity, a maximum aggregate adjustment rate to an uplink timing for the UE and a maximum amount of a magnitude of a timing change to the uplink timing for the UE are determined. The uplink timing for the UE is adjusted based on the maximum aggregate adjustment rate and the maximum amount of the magnitude of the timing change.

    Abstract: An approach is described for a method for a base station in a fifth generation (5G) wireless communication or a new radio (NR) system that includes the following steps. The method includes determining base initial seeds and a time parameter. The method further includes generating actual initial seeds based on the base initial seeds and the time parameter; generating a Pseudo-Noise (PN) sequence based on one of the actual initial seeds; and generating a remote interference management reference signal (RIM-RS) sequence based on the PN sequence. The method further includes transmitting the RIM-RS sequence to a remote base station.

    Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing techniques for generating a report result based on a set of measurements performed at measurement gaps during a reporting period. The set of measurements are performed on a reference signal at a first bandwidth part (BWP) or a second BWP when BWP switching is performed. The first BWP has a first measurement gap configuration, the second BWP has a second measurement gap configuration. The measurement gaps of the reporting period are configured according to a third measurement gap configuration that is determined based on the first measurement gap configuration and the second measurement gap configuration.

    Abstract: In a general aspect, a user equipment (UE) in a cellular communications network receives a first Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) corresponding to a first cell of the cellular communications network, and a second SSB corresponding to a second cell of the cellular communications network. The UE clarifies a first cell identifier (ID) of the first cell. The UE clarifies a second cell ID of the second cell. The UE determines an SSB measurement accuracy value using the first cell ID and the second cell ID.
