    Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, an apparatus of a user equipment (UE) comprises baseband circuitry including one or more processors to decode a secondary synchronization signal (SSS) or a beam reference signal (BRS) received from an evolved Node B (eNB) to select a Tier-1 sector for receiving downlink transmissions from the eNB, decode a downlink control channel message received from the eNB at one or more fixed time offsets after the UE decodes the SSS to obtain index information for the Tier-1 sector to identify the Tier-1 sector, and if the Tier-1 sector has changed initiate a random access procedure to select an updated Tier-1 sector, and generate an updated Tier-1 sector index message to report to the eNB.

    Abstract: Embodiments of a station (STA) and method for communication in accordance with phase noise compensation are generally described herein. The STA may determine, based at least partly on one or more operational parameters, whether to perform phase noise compensation of data symbols of a received protocol data unit (PDU). For instance, the STA may compare the operational parameters with one or more thresholds. The STA may further determine a method of phase noise compensation based at least partly on one or more operational parameters. As an example, the STA may determine a type of interpolation to be used for an interpolation of phase noise estimates of pilot symbols to determine phase noise estimates of data symbols. Example operational parameters may include a signal quality metric, a carrier frequency offset (CFO) measurement and/or modulation and coding scheme (MCS).

    Abstract: In a radio access network, user equipment (UE) is to encode signaling for sector-sweep transmission to a base station via a plurality of directional beams in a millimeter-wave radio band over a random-access shared channel during at least one contention period, and determine a transmission power setting for the directional transmission. The transmission power setting is based on a targeted received signal characteristic to be achieved at the base station using a selected beam direction, and the transmission power setting is determined based on transmission parameters of the UE and reception parameters of the base station, and on channel characteristics. The UE is to initiate transmission of the signaling using the transmission power setting for the plurality of directional beams, wherein the signaling is transmitted to be received according to a targeted received signal characteristic to be achieved at the base station.
