Abstract: Embodiments described herein include methods, systems, and apparatuses for allowing a user equipment (UE) that supports dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) with uplink (UL)-shift to access a cell and barring UEs that do not support DSS with UL-shift. Embodiments may use a cell barring field in a master information block and additional filters to indicate a barring state for a network node.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for controlling behavior for overriding grants for channel state information (CSI) feedback. A user equipment (UE) may control override of a first grant of a first radio resource by a second grant of a second radio resource. The UE determines that the second radio resource at least partially overlaps with the first radio resource. The UE also determines a physical layer priority of the first grant of the first radio resource and the second grant of the second radio resource. The physical layer priority is based on at least one of the first grant of the first radio resource and the second grant of the second radio resource being configured for transmitting CSI feedback over a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) to a base station. The UE then generates a transmission according to the physical layer priority.

Abstract: Performing UCI multiplexing includes generating PUCCH resources Z at an L1 HP procedure and an L1 LP procedure. The L1 HP procedure and the L1 LP procedure results in a plurality of HP PUCCHs and LP PUCCHs, respectively. A modified procedure for Set Q to resources Z is performed with the plurality of HP PUCCHs and LP PUCCHs as inputs. The plurality of HP PUCCHs according to starting symbols is scanned to identify an earliest starting HP PUCCH. A PUCCH from the plurality of LP PUCCHs or HP PUCCHS that overlaps with the earliest starting HP PUCCH is collected. Inter-L1 priority multiplexing is performed on the earliest starting HP PUCCH and the collected PUCCH, which may result in a new HP PUCCH. The new HP PUCCH is inserted into the Set Q. The modified procedure is repeated until there is no overlap among the HP PUCCHs and the LP PUCCHs.

Abstract: Indicating repetitions at a UE in an NTN includes decoding a communication indicating a timing relationship value associated with a distance between a serving satellite and a farthest UE in the NTN. A PRACH communication is encoded for transmission. The PRACH communication includes an indication of a number of PRACH repetitions determined based on the timing relationship value. A RAR including an uplink (UL) grant corresponding to the UE and an indication of a number of RAR repetitions is decoded. The number of RAR repetitions is determined based on the timing relationship value. A PUSCH communication including an indication of a number of PUSCH repetitions is encoded. The number of PUSCH repetitions is determined based on the timing relationship value. A content resolution communication including an indication of a number of content resolution repetitions is decoded. The number of content resolution repetitions is determined based on the timing relationship value.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for cancellation and/or replacement of PUSCHs. A user equipment device (UE) may configure a first PUSCH and a second PUSCH, where the first PUSCH may correspond to a configured grant and where the second PUSCH may correspond to a configured grant or scheduled by a PDCCH on a serving cell. The UE may determine that at least one transmission occasion associated with the first PUSCH overlaps in time with at least one transmission occasion associated with the second PUSCH. The UE may drop transmissions scheduled for the second PUSCH, e.g., based on determining that a priority of the first PUSCH is higher than a priority of the second PUSCH, e.g., starting with a first symbol of a repetition of the second PUSCH which overlaps in time with one or more repetitions of the first PUSCH.

Abstract: Systems and methods for modularized design for inter-physical layer priority uplink control information (UCI) multiplexing are disclosed herein. A user equipment (UE) may determine a first code rate for a first portion of UCI and a second code rate for a second portion of UCI. Different code rates may be used to encode different portions of UCI (e.g., hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) bits, channel state information (CSI) reporting bits, scheduling request (SR) bits, cyclic redundancy check (CRC) bits, etc.). Further, a UE may select a group of bets offset sets based on a physical layer priority type and a UCI multiplexing type.

Abstract: A system is configured for reconfiguration of a Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) pattern. The system is configured for obtaining data including a configuration for a Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) transmission carrying a physical broadcast channel (PBCH), the configuration specifying, for an SSB of the configuration, resource elements (REs) allocated for transmitting a primary synchronization signal (PSS) to a user equipment (UE) and REs allocated for transmitting a secondary synchronization signal (SSS) to the UE. The system is configured for selecting a set of REs that are unused in the configuration for the SSB transmission, specifying a filling sequence for extending a synchronization signal or an SSB to the set of REs that are unused in the configuration of the SSB transmission, generating data including an enhanced configuration for the SSB transmission that includes the extended synchronization signal or the extended SSBs, and transmitting the SSB transmission using the enhanced configuration.
