Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for reducing latency in a high-propagation-delay wireless communication system. A user equipment device (UE) may transmit to a base station a random access initiation message, having a characteristic that is configured to indicate to the base station a requested size of a subsequent uplink grant to be provided by the base station for transmission of uplink data by the UE. For example, the characteristic may include a predetermined preamble included in the random access initiation message, such that a requested grant size is indicated by which preamble the UE selects from a plurality of possible preambles. As another example, the characteristic may include which RACH occasion is selected by the UE to transmit the random access initiation message. In response, the base station may allocate resources for use by the UE based on the characteristic.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may camp on a base station of a network. The UE receives, from the base station of a wireless network, a broadcast including access restrictions, wherein the access restrictions include one or more predetermined criteria that must be satisfied to camp on the base station. The UE then determines whether the UE satisfies the one or more predetermined criteria.

Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, baseband processors, and methods for performing vehicle-to-everything sidelink communication. A wireless device receives first control information through a sidelink control channel specifying one or more first time slots for the wireless device to transmit a first acknowledgment message over a sidelink feedback channel. The wireless device transmits second control information through the sidelink control channel specifying one or more second time slots for the wireless device to receive a second acknowledgment message over the sidelink feedback channel. The first and second time slots at least partially overlap, and it is determined whether the first data packet or the second data packet has a higher priority. The acknowledgment message associated with the higher priority data packet is transmitted or received during at least a subset of the overlapping time slots.

Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE) and/or cellular network to perform downlink control information (DCI) mode signaling and control resource set (CORESET) selection. A DCI mode may be signaled based on a predefined rule, media access control (MAC) control element (CE), and/or group based beam reporting. One or more CORESETs may be selected based on configuration of an active bandwidth part (BWP), CORESET identifier, higher layer index, periodicity, type of search space, and/or MAC CE.

Abstract: To accommodate a mix of high frequency carriers and lower frequency carriers, a protocol stack may include a radio link control (RLC) entity that allows configuration of status reporting control parameters on per carrier, or per subcarrier spacing. Alternatively, a protocol stack may include two RLC entities, one for handling high frequency carriers, and another for handling lower frequency carriers. (High frequency carriers and lower frequency carriers may be distinguished based on a frequency threshold.) Furthermore, a user equipment may transmit (to the network) an indication of its L2 buffer size. The network may configure the UE and/or control scheduling, to ensure the UE's L2 buffer does not overrun. Alternatively, the UE may indicate that it can support a percentage of a maximum buffer size. The network may configure the UE and/or control scheduling so that the UE's buffer occupancy does not exceed the percentage.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) operates in a network. The UE receives, from the network, a paging area comprising a plurality of cells of the network. When the UE is in one of a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state or RRC idle state with respect to the network, the UE transmits a message to a first cell of the paging area based on the UE moving into a first coverage area of the first cell from a second coverage area of a second cell of the paging area. The UE then monitors the first cell for a page from the network.
