Abstract: New radio (NR) power headroom report (PHR) design for millimeter wave (mmWave) deployment is discussed. The power control process for mmWave may include beam-specific periodic PHR reporting and user equipment (UE)-specific event-trigger PHR reporting. The periodic PHR reporting may either provide a single PHR that includes power headroom information for each of the serving beams, or the UE may be configured to measure and report PHR for different beams in different slots. When reporting a single PHR with power headroom information for multiple serving beams, a beam index may be included in the reserved bits of the PHR. For the event-trigger PHR, the PHR reported based on a detected event trigger may provide power headroom information only for the current serving beam, or for all serving beams.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may measure quality of experience (QoE) metrics and transmit a QoE report that is formatted to be readable by a base station, such that a base station may receive the QoE report and independently perform adjustments associated with the service being utilized by the UE. A UE may receive a configuration message that includes a first configuration for reporting QoE measurements to a base station and a second configuration for reporting QoE measurements to a QoE server. The UE may measure one or more QoE metrics in accordance with the configuration message, and generate a first report for the base station based on the QoE measurements and the first configuration. Upon generating the report, the UE may transmit the first report to the base station in accordance with the first configuration.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In a service-based network, groups of core network services may share a user equipment (UE) credential or network subscription. Signaling between a UE and a service-based network (e.g., via a distributed unit) enables the UE to establish a service context for communications with multiple core network services in a same service group. A UE may receive control signaling from the network indicating service groups offered by the service-based network. The control signaling may indicate the services included in each service group and how to access the service group. The UE may transmit an access request indicating a selected service group to the network, and in response, the network may indicate a service context for communicating with the services included in the service group. The UE may use the same service context to access the different services in the service group.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for uplink switching for enhanced mobility. In some aspects, this disclosure provides techniques for potentially reducing or eliminating service interruptions experienced during a handover from a source cell to a target cell. Additionally, this disclosure provides techniques for potentially simplifying or improving uplink communications while a UE is connected to both the source cell and the target cell during the handover. This disclosure further provides techniques for potentially reducing UE power consumption or improving uplink resource utilization during a handover from a source cell to a target cell while a UE is connected to both the source cell and the target cell during the handover.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a base station may determine to transmit a pre-allocated uplink (UL) grant to a user equipment (UE), wherein the pre-allocated UL grant includes: a secondary node (SN) transmission configuration indicator (TCI) list, and a type 1 configured grant (CG). The base station may transmit, to the UE, the pre-allocated UL grant based at least in part on determining to transmit the pre-allocated UL grant. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive synchronization signal block (SSB) related measurement configurations exclusively in a system information block (SIB). The UE may receive SSB frequency lists for idle measurements in both a SIB or a radio resource control (RRC) message, such as an RRC release message. In some examples, the UE may receive SSB related measurement configurations or SSB frequency lists for idle measurements in a SIB and an RRC message. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may receive SSB frequency lists in a SIB and an RRC message, while SSB measurement configurations for SSB frequencies out of a sync raster may exclusively be indicated in the RRC message. The UE may therefore experience improved coverage and reliability and, in some examples, may promote low latency for wireless communications relating to multiple radio access technologies, among other benefits.
