    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) can include processing circuitry configured to decode control information of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) received via a resource within a control resource set (CORESET) occupying a subset of a plurality of OFDM symbols within a slot. At least one of the symbols in the subset coincides with a pre-defined symbol location associated with a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) of a PDSCII. The DM-RS can be detected within the slot, the DM-RS starting at a symbol location that is shifted from the pre-defined symbol location and following the subset of symbols. Downlink data scheduled by the PDCCH and received via the PDSCH can be decoded, where the decoding is based on the detected DM-RS.

    Abstract: Technology for a user equipment (UE) operable to perform downlink (DL) channel quality measurement reporting is disclosed. The UE can decode a system information block type y bandwidth reduced (SIBy-BR) received from an eNodeB. The SIB1-BR can instruct the UE to include a DL channel quality measurement report in a message 3 (Msg3) transmitted during a random access procedure between the UE and the eNodeB, wherein y is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1. The UE can determine a DL channel quality measurement for a DL channel between the UE and the eNodeB. The UE can encode the Msg3 for delivery over an uplink channel to the eNodeB. The Msg3 can be delivered during the random access procedure and can include the DL channel quality measurement report with the DL channel quality measurement.

    Abstract: A device of a New Radio (NR) User Equipment (UE), a system, a method and a machine-readable medium. The device includes a radio frequency (RF) interface, and a processing circuitry coupled to the RF interface, the processing circuitry to: decode a message from a NR Node B (gNodeB), the message corresponding to a unicast message or to a broadcast message and being received through a Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) interface (Uu interface), the message further including reference time information; and determine a reference time from the reference time information, the reference time to be used by higher layers of the UE.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and circuitries are provided for determining fallback behavior in a user equipment (UE) wireless communication device. The method includes signaling an enhanced processing time capability and fallback type to the wireless network, wherein the processing time capability includes respective numbers of transport blocks per slot the UE can process mapped to different respective specified numbers of serving cells. A number of configured serving cells that support the enhanced processing time capability is determined. The method includes determining, based on the number of configured serving cells, a maximum number of transport blocks per slot that will be communicated between the UE and the configured serving cells. A fallback behavior based on the determined maximum number of transport blocks per slot and the fallback type is determined.
