Abstract: Techniques discussed herein can facilitate measurement gap configuration and/or determination of activation or deactivation delays for NR (New Radio) UEs (User Equipments). A first set of aspects can involve coordination of measurement gap configuration for a UE between a MN (Master Node) and SN (Secondary Node). A second set of aspects can involve estimation of timing for activation and/or deactivation of SCell(s) (Secondary Cell(s)) in DC (Dual Connectivity) scenarios. Various embodiments can employ techniques of the first set of aspects and/or the second set of aspects.

Abstract: In embodiments, apparatuses, methods, and storage media may be described for identifying, by a master evolved NodeB (MeNB), one or more packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) packets that were previously scheduled to be transmitted to a user equipment (UE) by a secondary eNB (SeNB). The PDCP packets that are identified by the MeNB may then be transmitted, or retransmitted, to the UE. Additionally, embodiments may include apparatuses, methods, and storage media for allowing the UE to identify one or more parameters related to a PDCP reordering process to be performed by the UE. Other embodiments may be claimed.

Abstract: Technology described herein provides carrier-monitoring (CM) signaling approaches that can be used by networks and/or mobile devices. An evolved Node B (eNB) can send an IncMon-support message indicating whether a network supports the increased-number-of-frequencies-to-monitor (IncMon) feature. A UE can apply a default CM configuration if the UE does not receive an IncMon-support message from the eNB. The eNB can use dedicated signaling or broadcast signaling to inform a UE of a default CM configuration or one or more adopted CM configurations that are used in the network. The eNB can also send a list of carriers that are to be monitored to the UE. The UE can also send UE-capability information to the eNB, such as a default CM configuration, an adopted CM configuration, or configurable configurations in different radio access technologies (RATs) supported by the UE.

Abstract: Aspects of filtering coefficient configuration operations are described. Some aspects include a user equipment (UE) decoding a measurement configuration information element (IE) including a measurement quantity parameter, a reference signal (RS)-type filter configuration and at least one filter coefficient. In some aspects, the UE filters at least one of a cell measurement result and a beam measurement result, according to the measurement configuration IE. If the measurement quantity parameter indicates the cell measurement quantity, the UE can filter the cell measurement result according to the RS type filter configuration and the filter coefficient to determine a measurement evaluation input for a measurement reporting operation. If the measurement quantity parameter indicates the beam measurement quantity, the UE can filter the beam measurement result according to the RS type filter configuration and the filter coefficient to determine a beam measurement selection input for a beam measurement selection operation.

Abstract: Uplink (UL) data splits between LTE and WLAN can be go supported in cellular networks. The split can be UE controlled or network controlled. Both UE and network controlled bearer split architectures can be supported. The reporting of Uplink Buffer Status (BSR) and the subsequent data allocation can depend on what option is supported by the network. For UE controlled UL data splits, the UE determines a traffic split ratio between LTE and WLAN. The split can be based on local link conditions. For network controlled UL data splits, the network (e.g. a Link Aggregation Scheduler at the eNB) is responsible for making bearer split decisions. The decisions can be based on link qualities, available traffic and quality of service (QoS) requirements of associated users. The split can be based on a per bearer threshold, an eNB configured ratio, or an implicit inference based on a UL grant.

Abstract: User Equipment (UE), computer readable media, and methods to modify communication channel measurement timing based on a mobility of the UE are disclosed. The UE may include circuitry configured to determine a plurality of signals from one or more cells, determine a first value for a first performance metric associated with a first cell of the one or more cells, wherein the first value is determined from a first measurement, select the first cell for a first communication based on the first value, determine first location information associated with the UE, determine, following the first measurement and using the first location information, that the UE is stationary, and delay, in response to the determination that the UE is stationary, a second measurement of the first performance metric. In various alternate embodiments, different measurement types may be used for mobility and channel quality determinations. In further embodiments, only measurements for unused channels may be delayed.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure describe systems, devices and methods for system information acquisition in radio resource connection (RRC) connection reestablishment when Radio Link Failure (RLF) happens. Various embodiments may include a serving cell that provides system information of a neighbor cell to a user equipment (UE). When the UE detects an RLF event, the UE may determine whether the previously received system information is valid and proceed with RRC connection reestablishment based on the determination. Other embodiments may be described or claimed.

Abstract: Embodiments of a base station and method for early handover using uplink channel characteristics in a wireless network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a method for handover determination is performed by an enhanced node B (eNB) operating as a serving cell base station. In these embodiments, a handover decision is based on a signal level of uplink transmissions of user equipment (UE) measured at a target cell base station in addition to signal levels of downlink signals of the target cell base station and downlink signals of a serving cell base station measured at the UE.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for mobility state estimation in a heterogeneous network are disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) includes circuitry to perform a mobility state estimation (MSE) operation to determine an MSE state for the UE, and a receiver to receive, from a cell in a heterogeneous third generation partnership project (3GPP) network, mobility state information corresponding to movement of the UE within the heterogeneous 3GPP network. The circuitry is configured to update the MSE state based on the mobility state information received from the cell. The UE may also include a transmitter to communicate the updated MSE state to the cell.
