Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for performing efficient emergency services fallback. A cellular network element may provide emergency services fallback information to a wireless device during 3GPP 5GS cellular registration. The emergency services fallback information may include an indication of whether emergency services fallback via fallback to evolved packet core service is supported. The emergency services fallback information may also include an indication of whether emergency services fallback via fallback to circuit switched service is supported.

Abstract: Peer devices may wirelessly communicate with each other over a bidirectional sidelink logical channel (LCH) through an established bidirectional sidelink radio bearer. An initiating device of the peer devices may dynamically select a logical channel ID for establishing a fully bidirectional or semi-bidirectional SLRB. At least two alternative sidelink radio resource control (PC5-RRC) procedures may ensure the SLRB parameters are configured correctly in the established logical channel. The procedures also allow the network to configure a limited SLRB which is used to couple the SLRB configuration in the direction in which limited traffic (e.g. feedback information such as robust header compression feedback and/or status reports) is transmitted.

Abstract: Techniques discussed herein can facilitate inactive state transmissions for a Base Station (BS) via a 4-step or 2-step inactive state RACH process. One example aspect is a BS comprising: communication circuitry; and one or more processors communicatively coupled to the communication circuitry and configured to: receive, via the communication circuitry, a message 1 (Msg1) or a message A (MsgA) preamble based on a Random Access Channel (RACH) configuration for a Radio Resource Control (RRC) inactive data transmission; receive, via the communication circuitry, a message 3 (Msg3) or a MsgA Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) comprising uplink (UL) data via configured resources; and transmit, via the communication circuitry, a message 4 (Msg4) or a message B (MsgB) in response to the Msg3 or the MsgA PUSCH.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a wireless device avoiding reselection or handover to cells of different operators. The wireless device may attach to a first base station of a first network operator. The wireless device may determine that a neighboring base station is associated with a second network operator. Based on determining the neighboring base station is associated with the second network operator, the wireless device may exclude the third base station from handover or reselection.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are described to facilitate soft signaling between a user equipment (UE) and a network element. A UE and a network element can exchange HTTP or Websocket messages to identify and request network resources needed for the UE to access and use application services. The network element can use requested network resources to cause the configuration of a connection between the UE and a radio access network.

Abstract: Base stations, user equipment devices (UEs), and methods for a base station to supply service type-specific information to the UE. The base station may broadcast a first system information block (SIB) comprising scheduling information for a plurality of second SIBs, wherein each of the plurality of second SIBs corresponds to a respective service type of a plurality of service types, and wherein the second SIBs describe service type-specific capabilities of the base station. The plurality of service types may comprise two or more of enhanced mobile broadband, ultra-reliable low latency communications, and massive machine-type communications. The base station may broadcast the plurality of second SIBs according to the scheduling information of the first SIB, and may establish a connection and communicate with the UE using one or more service types and according to the service type-specific capabilities described by second SIBs corresponding to the one or more service types.

Abstract: A service device (e.g., a user equipment (UE), or other network component) can operate generate sidelink communications with peer UE devices based on PC5 unicast link to enable a direct peer-to-peer communication as part of PC5 vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. Radio status link detection can be configured based on a keep alive (KA) coordination scheme via the PC5 unicast link to monitor a status of the PC5 unicast link. A KA timer can be configured based on the KA coordination scheme via the PC5 unicast link. The KA coordination scheme is configured to reduce redundant KA requests in the PC5 unicast link to coordinate the direct peer-to-peer communication across the PC5 unicast link.

Abstract: A transmitter (e.g. a packet data convergence protocol, PDCP, in the transmitter), which may be a base station for downlink communications or a user equipment device for uplink communications, may control timing of the delivery of duplicate (same) packets to multiple (e.g. two) wireless links (e.g. radio link control links) for transmission to a receiver, based at least on synchronization information received from the receiver. The duplicate packets may be transmitted over the multiple wireless links to the receiver, which may receive the duplicate packets over the multiple wireless links. The receiver may collect and/or generate synchronization information indicative of the timing or latency between the multiple wireless links, based at least on the respective receive timings of the duplicate packets over the multiple wireless links. The receiver may transmit a report containing the synchronization information to the transmitter periodically and/or in response to a trigger event.
