    摘要: Embodiments herein provide techniques for indication of a system frame number (SFN) in and/or associated with a random access response (RAR) for a random access procedure. A UE may transmit a physical random access channel (PRACH) preamble in a PRACH occasion (e.g., in a Msg1 or MsgA) and monitor for a message (e.g., Msg2 or MsgB) in a RAR window. The RAR window may be greater than one frame. The Msg2 or MsgB (e.g., a downlink control information (DCI) and/or a medium access control (MAC) RAR) may indicate the SFN associated with the RACH occasion. The UE may determine whether the message is for the UE or another UE based on the SFN. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

    摘要: Embodiments herein provide techniques for a next generation radio access node (NG-RAN, such as a next generation base station (gNB)) and an access and mobility management function (AMF) to share information associated with a non-public network. In an embodiment, the NG-RAN node transmits a NG SETUP REQUEST message to the AMF that includes at least one closed access group (CAG) or network identifier (NID) associated with the NPN. The NPN may be a stand-alone NPN (SNPN) or a public network integrated NPN (PNI-NPN). Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

    摘要: Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE), Evolved Node-B (eNB) and methods of communication are generally described herein. The UE may receive a SystemInformationBlockType1 from an eNB. The UE may determine that the eNB supports Fifth Generation Core (5GC) operation if the SystemInformationBlockType1 message includes a plmn-Identity-5GC-r15 parameter. The UE may transmit a radio resource control (RRC) connection request message to establish an RRC connection. If it is determined that the eNB supports 5GC operation, and if the UE supports 5GC operation, the UE may encode the RRC connection request message in accordance with a default new radio packet data convergence protocol (NR PDCP) configuration; and may use NR PDCP for one or more subsequent messages.
