    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for base station conformance testing are disclosed. Two wireless carriers that are based on different radio technologies and dynamically share a radio spectrum are received from a base station. Frequencies and timings of the two wireless carriers are measured and a frequency difference between the measured frequencies and a timing difference between the measured timings of the two wireless carriers are then determined. It can then be determined whether the frequency and timing differences satisfy predefined criteria for acceptable frequency and timing differences.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes at least one processor; and at least one non-transitory memory including computer program code; wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to: receive from a network a configuration of two or more uplink grants; transmit uplink data to the network during operating in a given time with one of the two or more uplink grants; and operate with a first operation following receiving an indication of triggering the first operation for the apparatus, or following the apparatus autonomously triggering the first operation; wherein operating with the first operation corresponds to at least using the one of the two or more uplink grants for uplink transmission.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for signaling a message regarding UE receiver performance degradation between a user equipment and a network. Close UL/DL frequencies or harmonic relationships may cause MSD. A user equipment may indicate an actual or improved maximum sensitivity degradation value for a configuration, or that there is no maximum sensitivity degradation for a configuration, using capability transfer signaling, RRC reconfiguration signaling, and/or measurement reporting. The indicated maximum sensitivity degradation for a configuration may be found in a table. The user equipment may additionally signal information about configuration(s) it supports and/or measurements it has made related to cross band transmit-to-receive degradation and/or SINR. A UE may implicitly indicate a MSD value through selection of a bandwidth combination set. MSD may be used by the network to assist in making scheduling decisions.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for interleaved control channel element to resource element group mapping within a portion of a control resource set. A method may include determining a first set of parameters having a first configuration for a first control resource set including a plurality of resource element groups. The method also includes determining an interleaver block size of each of a plurality of interleaver blocks. The plurality of interleaver blocks are formed by dividing the control resource set in time and numbering the interleaver blocks. The method further includes mapping the plurality of resource element groups to control channel elements, such that resource element groups of a first interleaver block, which are a subset of the plurality of resource element groups, are mapped to the control channel elements before mapping resource element groups of any subsequent interleaver block of the plurality of interleaver blocks to control channel elements.
