    Abstract: Embodiments include a computer readable storage medium, a user equipment, a method and an integrated circuit that perform operations. The operations include receiving a plurality of control resource sets (CORESETs), selecting a CORESET, wherein the CORESET includes one or more active transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states and determining a default beam or a pathloss reference signal (RS) based on a TCI state. Further operations include receiving a beam indication for a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), wherein the PDCCH is received via one or more CORESETS, each having a plurality of TCIs, determining if the PDCCH collides with a second signal and determining whether to (a) drop the PDCCH or the second signal or (b) base a quasi co-location (QCL) of one of the PDCCH or the second signal on a QCL of the other one of the second signal or the PDCCH.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) receives a resource allocation for a shared channel transmission that includes mapping modulated symbols of a transport block with a single dedicated hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number across resource elements for N consecutive slots of the resource allocation, wherein N is at least two. The UE may also receive, from a base station, a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) triggering (DMRS-T) value indicating a DMRS pattern to be used for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission, wherein the PDSCH transmission includes mapping modulated symbols of a transport block with a single dedicated hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number across resource elements for N consecutive slots of a PDSCH resource allocation, wherein N is at least two and measure transmitted DMRS based on the DMRS pattern corresponding to the DMRS-T value.

    Abstract: A base station indicates a resource allocation for a shared channel transmission to a user equipment, wherein the shared channel transmission includes mapping modulated symbols of a transport block with a single dedicated hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number across resource elements for N consecutive slots of the resource allocation, wherein N is at least two. The base station may also transmit, to the UE, a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) triggering (DMRS-T) value indicating a DMRS pattern to be used for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission by a base station, wherein the PDSCH transmission includes mapping modulated symbols of a transport block with a single dedicated hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number across resource elements for N consecutive slots of a PDSCH resource allocation, wherein N is at least two and transmits the DMRS pattern corresponding to the DMRS-T value.

    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for capability reporting for antenna switching, AS, sound reference signals, SRS. A user equipment (UE) can transmit a capability report for AS SRS that includes a plurality of receive antenna (e.g., six or eight receive antenna), and receive SRS instructions based on the capability report. The UE can transmit a first temporary capability reduction for a duration, and transmit a first SRS according to the first temporary capability reduction and the SRS instructions, while maintaining phase continuity. To maintain phase continuity, the UE can calibrate one or more SRS ports participating in the AS SRS to transmit with substantially a same transmit power. The UE can determine that a second SRS overlaps an other transmission in a time domain, determine that the other transmission has an absolute priority over the second SRS, and transmit the other transmission but not the second SRS.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) monitors a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH). The UE receives a configuration for a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) including repetitions for PDCCH candidates comprising first PDCCH data, wherein the PDCCH candidates are repeated across multiple durations of a DL resource grid, detects, based on a repetition detection scheme, each of the PDCCH candidates and combines soft bits from each of the PDCCH candidates, wherein the combined soft bits are jointly decoded to determine the first PDCCH data and calculates a number of blind decodes (BDs) for the durations of the DL resource grid carrying the PDCCH candidates, wherein at least one BD value for the PDCCH candidates is scaled by a scaling factor for the calculation of the number of BDs.

    Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for supporting channel state information (CSI) report configuration for network spatial elements adaptation. The UE can receive a CSI report configuration from the base station indicating a first configuration to configure a first CSI report, and a second configuration to configure a second CSI report. The UE can determine one or more active configurations selected from the first configuration and the second configuration, based on whether one or more of the first configuration or the second configuration is activated by a Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (MAC CE) or triggered by a Downlink Control Information (DCI). The processor can be further configured to select, based on a report mode, one or more CSI reports from the first CSI report and the second CSI report. The report mode can be a basic mode or an enhanced mode.
