    摘要: A user equipment (UE) is described. Receiving circuitry is configured to receive a radio resource control (RRC) message including first information used for indicating an index of a downlink bandwidth part (DL BWP) in a primary cell. Transmitting circuitry is configured to perform, based on an initiation of a random access procedure, the random access procedure. In a case that physical random access channel (PRACH) resources are not configured for an active UL BWP in the primary cell, the random access procedure is performed on a DL BWP in the primary cell and an UL BWP in the primary cell. An index of the DL BWP being defined as “0”, and an index of the UL BWP being defined as “0”.

    摘要: An evolved NodeB (eNB) for scheduling multiple Licensed-Assisted Access (LAA) cells is described that includes a processor and memory in electronic communication with the processor. Instructions stored in the memory are executable to perform clear channel assessment (CCA) detection and obtain a channel status at a configured Licensed-Assisted Access (LAA) secondary cell (SCell). The instructions are also executable to manage a counter. The instructions are further executable to determine whether the counter is reduced or suspended if the channel is sensed to be idle. The instructions are additionally executable to reduce the counter if determined, otherwise suspend the counter and move to a next channel sensing.

    摘要: A user equipment (UE) that communicates with a base station apparatus on one or more downlink bandwidth parts (DL BWPs) in a serving cell is described. Receiving circuitry is configured to receive a radio resource control (RRC) message comprising first information. The receiving circuitry is also configured to receive a RRC message comprising second information. The receiving circuitry is also configured to monitor a PDCCH based on the first information. The receiving circuitry is also configured to receive on the PDCCH, a downlink control information (DCI) format comprising third information and fourth information. Transmitting circuitry is configured to perform in a slot, based on a detection of the DCI comprising the third information and the fourth information, an aperiodic CSI reporting on the PUSCH, the slot being determined based on the fourth information.

    摘要: A user equipment (UE) is described that includes a higher-layer processor configured to configure a shortened transmission timing interval (TTI) for a serving cell. The UE also includes a physical uplink channel transmitter configured to transmit a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) on the serving cell. The UE further includes a shortened physical uplink channel transmitter configured to transmit a shortened physical uplink control channel (SPUCCH) on the serving cell. In a case that a transmission instance of the SPUCCH collides with an uplink subframe where the PUCCH is to be transmitted, the PUCCH is dropped, and the SPUCCH is transmitted.

    摘要: A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes a processor and memory in electronic communication with the processor. Instructions stored in the memory are executable to acquire a first higher layer configuration indicating at least a short uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource configuration. The instructions are also executable to acquire a second higher layer configuration indicating multiple sets of PUCCH resource configurations, one set of PUCCH resource configurations within the multiple sets of PUCCH resource configurations include the short PUCCH resource configuration. The instructions are further executable to select a set of PUCCH resource configurations from the sets of PUCCH resource configurations based on a payload size of uplink control information (UCI). The instructions are additionally executable to transmit the UCI on a PUCCH resource, the PUCCH resource corresponding to a PUCCH resource configuration within the selected set of PUCCH resource configurations.
