    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: Systems, methods, and apparatuses disclosed herein can generate and report a cross link interference (CLI) report. These systems, methods, and apparatuses can receive a CLI report configuration that outlines requirements for the CLI report, where the CLI report configuration is received on Layer 1 signaling, for example, Downlink Control Information (DCI) on a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) or Layer 2 signaling, for example, downlink (DL) Media Access Control-Control Element (MAC-CE) on Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH). The CLI report configuration can identify the one or more CLI measurement resources to be measured and reported; one or more CLI measurements to be performed on the one or more CLI measurement resources; one or more CLI measurement occasions to measure the one or more CLI measurement resources; and one or more resources, to be used to report the CLI report. These systems, methods, and apparatuses can generate the CLI report as outlined in the CLI report configuration. Thereafter, these methods, and apparatuses can report the CLI report on Layer 1 signaling, for example, Uplink Control Information (UCI) on a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) or Layer 2 signaling, for example, uplink (UL) Media Access Control-Control Element (MAC-CE) on Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH).

    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: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for enhancement in NTN mobility. A cellular base station may serve as a source base station of a handover procedure from the source base station to a target non-terrestrial network (NTN) base station. The cellular base station may configure a parameter associated with the target NTN base station in a handover command, the parameter being related to NTN mobility, and send the handover command to a wireless device for use by the wireless device during the handover procedure. The wireless device may receive the handover command from the cellular base station, and perform the handover procedure using the parameter associated with the target NTN base station.
