    Abstract: The disclosure relates to reduced signaling to carry out the linking between new radio (NR) carrier aggregation (CA) band combinations and NR band processing combinations (BPCs), and includes apparatus and methods of receiving, at a modem of a user equipment (UE), a UE configuration from a base station based on UE band combination constraint information, configuring the UE, by a processor of the UE, according to the UE configuration, and performing a communication with the base station, via the modem of the UE, according to the UE configuration. In an implementation, the disclosure includes transmitting the UE band combination constraint information, such as in the form of receiving a total number of layers supported in a CA band combination, and wherein receiving the UE configuration further comprises receiving a CA combination and a BPC configuration in response to the UE band combination constraint information.

    Abstract: A beam selection method and apparatus suitable for millimeter wave (mmW) communication systems is disclosed. In one aspect, a user equipment (UE) may perform a beam sweep procedure to identify suitable downlink beams candidates from one or more gNBs. The UE may generate a beam list by selecting some of the downlink beams for active tracking. When beams on the beam list become unavailable, the UE may compare the number of available beams on the beam list with a threshold value. If the number of available beams falls below the threshold, the UE may perform another beam sweep procedure.
