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: This disclosure is directed towards improved methods for identifying one or more base stations for connection with user equipment. The user equipment may establish a connection with a base stations based on an estimated location of the base station. Additionally, the user equipment may receive an indication from the base station to scan for additional base stations at additional estimated locations. Further, the user equipment may determine one or more connection parameters (e.g., distance from communication hub to user equipment, angle of communication hub relative to user equipment, shadowing at the communication hub, and the like) associated with the base stations within the geographical area. The user equipment may establish connection with base stations that are determined to have the best signal strength based on the connection parameters.

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.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to system and method for supporting Multicast Broadcast Service (MBS) SERVICE in Non-terrestrial network (NTN). In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) device may comprises: at least one antenna; at least one radio, configured to perform wireless communication using at least one radio access technology; and one or more processor coupled to the at least one radio, wherein the at least one radio and the one or more processor are configured to receive Multicast Broadcast Service (MBS) data, wherein the one or more processor are configured to case the UE device to: receive, from a network device, a timing offset indicating a slot offset for a Hybrid Automatic Repeat request (HARQ) feedback transmission; and determine a transmission timing for an HARQ feedback transmission for the MBS data based on the timing offset.
