    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to simultaneously connect to a primary cell (PCell) and a primary secondary cell (PSCell) of a wireless network, wherein a primary component carrier (PCC) of the PCell and a primary secondary component carrier (PSCC) of the PSCell are both in frequency range 1 (FR1). The UE receives a PCC measurement object (MO) configuration, a PSCC MO configuration, and an inter-frequency MO with no measurement gap configuration, determines a PCC MO carrier specific scaling factor (CSSF), a PSCC MO CSSF, and an inter-frequency MO with no measurement gap CSSF and applies each respective CSSF to a measurement period corresponding to each of the PCC MO, the PSCC MO, and the inter-frequency MO with no measurement gap to determine a scaled measurement period corresponding to each of the PCC MO, the PSCC MO, and the inter-frequency MO with no measurement gap.

    Abstract: Approaches are described for receiving downlink signals simultaneously where analog beamforming is being used to increase the link budget between the base station and user equipment (UE). Alternatives within these approaches include the UE determining the synchronization signal block (SSB) to receive when there are multiple SSBs from different cells in a slot, and determining whether there are other signals in the same symbols with the selected SSB based on the type of signal and the SSB's functionality. In the case where there are another downlink signals channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) or physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) from another cell, the UE selects the corresponding quasi co-location (QCL) assumption to receive the signals. Optionally, the UE can report whether it can support one or two QCL-TypeD at a time and whether it supports SSBs in different cells multiplexed in overlapped symbols.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to receive a command for a transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state change for a joint TCI state including uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) signals, decode the joint TCI state command and performing measurements necessary to receive and transmit with the target TCI state, the measurements including a pathloss (PL) measurement for an UL channel and switch to receive the DL signals and transmit the UL signals with the target TCI state no later than a time duration for a switching delay.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to simultaneously connect to a primary cell (PCell) serving a primary component carrier (PCC), a primary secondary cell (PSCell) serving a primary secondary component carrier (PSCC) and at least one secondary cell (SCell) serving a secondary component carrier (SCC), wherein the PSCell is in a deactivated state. The UE receives a radio resource management (RRM) measurement configuration comprising a PCC measurement object (MO) configuration, a PSCC MO configuration, and an SCC MO configuration, determines a PCC MO carrier specific scaling factor (CSSF), a PSCC MO CSSF, and an SCC MO CSSF and applies each respective CSSF to a measurement period corresponding to each of the PCC MO, the PSCC MO, and the SCC MO.
