    Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for user equipment are provided. A method may include determining to transmit, upon data arrival on a logical channel, the data on a configured grant for the logical channel. The method may also include transmitting, based on the determination, the data on the configured grant to activate a cell. In an example embodiment, the transmission on the configured grant may be performed regardless of a current activation status of the cell for which the configured grant is configured, or a suspend status of the configured grant.

    Abstract: For example, a communication link between a first relay node and a second relay node, which are in synchronous movement, is established. Beam management assistance information from the first relay node is received at the second relay node upon an occurrence of beam failure at the first relay node (S801). At the second relay node it is decided about a timing at which the received beam management assistance information is to be transmitted to a serving network node (S802), and the received beam management assistance information is transmitted from the second relay node to the serving network node at the decided timing (S803).

    Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from taking appropriate measurements. For example, certain wireless communication systems may benefit from optimized user equipment measurements for fast cell access. A method can include receiving, at a user equipment, a configuration from a network to which the user equipment is connected. The configuration may include instructions to the user equipment regarding measurements with respect to detected cells. The method may also include performing the measurements according to the received configuration, and reporting the measurements to the network.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for faster radio frequency (RF) activation are provided. One method may include transmitting by a network node, or receiving by a user equipment, a connection release message for the user equipment, wherein the connection release message comprises an indication for the user equipment to start measuring secondary cells after connection release. The method may then include during or immediately after connection setup or connection resume, receiving by the network node or transmitting by the user equipment, an indication of availability of measurements of the secondary cells.

    Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from appropriate sharing of resources amongst multiple nodes. For example, certain wireless communication systems may benefit from using a single measurement gap for master node and secondary node measurements in a multi-radio-access-technology dual connectivity scenario, or similar scenarios. A method can include determining, by a first network node, that a gap pattern is existing in a second network node. The method can also include enquiring, by the first network node to the second network node, whether the gap pattern can be used for a new measurement. The method can further include configuring, by the first network node, a user equipment to perform the new measurement in the gap pattern, based on a response from the second network node to the enquiring.
