    Abstract: Certain embodiments are directed to a system and method of physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission termination. The system and method can include a user equipment (UE) that can receives a downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a PUSCH transmission overlapped with repetitions of a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process for the UE and terminates the PUSCH transmission upon detection of the DCI after a fixed number of symbols where the fixed number of symbols is counted from a symbol after the last symbol of a control resource set (CORESET).

    Abstract: User equipment (UE) includes processing circuitry coupled to memory. To configure the UE for multi-transmission reception point (TRP) reception, the processing circuitry is to decode radio resource control (RRC) signaling. The RRC signaling includes configuration information configuring a plurality of transmission configuration indication (TCI) states. A media access control (MAC) control element (CE) is decoded, where the MAC CE indicates multiple active TCI states of the configured plurality of TCI states. Multiple received beams are determined using the multiple active TCI states. Downlink information is decoded, where the downlink information originates from multiple TRPs and is received via the determined multiple receive beams associated with the multiple active TCI states.

    Abstract: A network device (e.g., a user equipment (UE), or a new radio NB (gNB)) can process or generate a configuration of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring in different search spaces sets independently from one another in order to manage different services optimally. A processor of the network device can be configured to receive physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates of a PDCCH in a slot for channel estimation across search spaces of the slot. Different priorities can be determined among the PDCCH candidates in the slot based on a priority rule. Then a number of PDCCH candidates can be skipped/dropped from monitoring based on the different priorities of the PDCCH candidates to ensure that a threshold level of blind decoding operations across a plurality of slots of the PDCCH is being satisfied. The UE can monitor a portion of the PDCCH candidates while concurrently skipping another.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for wake-up signaling of user equipment (UE). The systems and methods can include at least generating, by the BS, a wake up signal (WUS), wherein the WUS includes a length-131 Zadoff-Chu (ZC) sequence and a Gold sequence for radio equipment-level (RE-level) scrambling, and transmitting, by the BS, the WUS to a user equipment (UE) in a paging group associated with the WUS.

    Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques for antenna port configuration in wireless communication systems are described. A described technique performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving configuration information that determines a bit-width value for an antenna port indication field of a downlink control information (DCI) format; receiving a DCI message that is in accordance with the DCI format; and determining an antenna port configuration for one or more demodulation reference signals based on the DCI message, the configuration information, and the bit-width value.
