Abstract: There is provided a user equipment apparatus that includes at least one processor and at least one memory. The memory stores instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the user equipment apparatus at least to: perform an initial cell search of one or more cells on a network, including scanning for synchronization signal block (SSB) transmissions corresponding to synchronization raster points; receive an SSB transmission associated with a synchronization raster point and with a transmission bandwidth, where a size of the transmission bandwidth is based on location of the synchronization raster point in a band having at least a first region and a second region, and where the SSB transmission includes a physical broadcast channel (PBCH); and determine a PBCH puncturing pattern for receiving the PBCH based on the size of the transmission bandwidth.

Abstract: There are provided measures for enabling/realizing pathloss measurement on an unlicensed spectrum, i.e. arrangement of an appropriate pathloss reference signal for operation on an unlicensed spectrum. Such measures exemplarily comprise that a communication node or element in a communication system, which is configured for beam-based operation on an unlicensed band, obtains a pathloss measurement configuration, including a reference signal for pathloss measurement, validates practicability of pathloss measurement based on the configured reference signal, and controls pathloss measurement, wherein pathloss is measured based on the configured reference signal in a case where the configured reference signal is practicable, or pathloss measurement is skipped or pathloss is measured based on another reference signal being on the same quasi-co-location chain as the configured reference signal in a case where the configured reference signal is not practicable.

Abstract: Devices, methods and computer programs for client device operation mode indication are disclosed. A client device obtains a first indication indicating at least a time duration and at least a first period for repeating the time duration. A downlink control information, DCI, received within the indicated time duration includes a second indication indicating a second operation mode of the client device, and the second indication is not included when the DCI is received outside of the indicated time duration. In response to receiving, at the client device, the DCI from a network node device within the indicated time duration, the client device determines the second operation mode of the client device based on the received second indication, and applies the determined second operation mode of the client device.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided for cell-edge scheduling arrangement for high subcarrier spacing. In an example implementation, the method may include configuring, by a gNB, a first numerology parameter that enables at least symbol repetition and a modified cyclic prefix, and transmitting, by the gNB, a downlink signal/channel that is configured based at least on the symbol repetition and modified cyclic prefix. In another example implementation, the method may include configuring, by a user equipment (UE), a first numerology parameter that enables at least symbol repetition and modified cyclic prefix based at least on information received from a gNB, aligning, by the UE, fast Fourier transform (FFT) windows with boundaries of the repeated symbols, and processing, by the UE, a downlink signal/channel received from the gNB based at least on the aligning.

Abstract: An apparatus including at least one processor and at least one memory storing instructions that when executed by the at least one processor cause the apparatus at least to perform receiving from a network node an indication of a second radio frequency carrier. The second radio frequency carrier is contained within a first radio frequency carrier over which the network node communicates.

Abstract: Devices, methods and computer programs for a packet data unit session for physical uplink control channel transmission slot determination are disclosed. A client device receives from a network node device physical uplink control channel, PUCCH, configuration information for configuring more than one serving cell for a PUCCH transmission within a PUCCH cell group for the client device. The PUCCH configuration information comprises at least one set of relative slot offset values n for at least one target serving cell for the PUCCH transmission having a larger sub-carrier spacing, SCS, than an SCS of a reference cell. The client device utilizes the received PUCCH configuration information in selecting a PUCCH transmission slot for a target serving cell.
