Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for location verification. In an aspect, a radio access network (RAN) node receives a request from a core network node to verify a location of a user equipment (UE), performs a RAN-based positioning procedure with the UE to determine a verified location of the UE, and transmits a response to the core network node, the response including: measurements obtained by the UE during the RAN-based positioning procedure, measurements obtained by the RAN node during the RAN-based positioning procedure, the verified location of the UE, an indication that the location of the UE is verified, or any combination thereof.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may collect one or more paging metrics for a first paging carrier over a plurality of paging occasions in a collection period. The UE may communicate with a base station to switch from the first paging carrier to a second paging carrier based at least in part on the one or more paging metrics for the first paging carrier. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network entity and via a system information block (SIB), information that indicates frequencies associated with a terrestrial network (TN) cell. The information may include one or more of a priority of frequency, frequency-specific offset, or cell-specific offset. The UE may perform, during an idle mode of the UE, measurements of the frequencies associated with the TN cell based at least in part on a location of the UE being within the TN cell. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from an entity of a non-terrestrial network (NTN), a system information block (SIB) that indicates information relating to one or more NTN SIBs that are to include at least one of ephemeris information or feeder link timing advance information. The UE may receive, from the entity of the NTN, the one or more NTN SIBs based at least in part on the information. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine a scaling factor for a UE measurement period based at least in part on the UE being associated with a non-terrestrial network (NTN). The UE may perform a measurement during a scaled UE measurement period based at least in part on the scaling factor and the UE measurement period. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus, and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for GNSS validity reporting in NTNs. A UE may transmit, to a network entity, a report of a validity duration for GNSS tracking information. The GNSS tracking information may be associated with an NTN including the UE and the network entity. The report may include an indication of a remaining time period of the validity duration based on a threshold. The UE may switch to an RRC idle mode based on the report of the validity duration. The RRC idle mode may be switched to after an expiration of the remaining time period of the validity duration or based on an RRC release message received from the network entity.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some non-terrestrial networks, the movement of satellites may result in the movement of cell coverage. A user equipment (UE) may experience changing cell coverage due to the movement of cell coverage, even if the UE is stationary. A UE may be configured to determine a cell is serving two or more earth-fixed tracking areas, determine whether to monitor paging resources of a first earth-fixed tracking area or a second earth-fixed tracking area, and monitor the selected paging resources. In some aspects, the UE may determine that a cell serves two or more earth-fixed tracking areas based on a received control message including multiple tracking area indicators. In some aspects, the UE may determine which paging resources to monitor based on a geographic position of the UE.

Abstract: An apparatus for wireless communications includes a processor, and a memory coupled with the processor and storing instructions operable, when executed by the processor, to cause the apparatus to output a pre-configured uplink resource (PUR) configuration information comprising a least significant bit (LSB) associated with a hyper system frame number (H-SFN). Execution of the instructions further cause the apparatus to obtain, from a user equipment (UE) at a PUR start time, a first message on a PUR associated with the PUR configuration information, the PUR start time associated with the H-SFN corresponding to the LSB.

Abstract: A UE may include IoT NTN device, and the UE may acquire the GNSS location to perform the time/frequency pre-compensation. A NAS layer of the UE may initiate a connection request procedure based on the GNSS fix procedure at one or more lower layer of the UE. A network may transmit a paging request to the UE, and manage a paging response timer based on the GNSS fix procedure at the UE.
