Abstract: Provided is a method for a user equipment. The method includes starting performing a handover (HO) with a target Primary Secondary Cell (PSCell) in response to receiving an HO command instructing the HO with the target PSCell, wherein the HO with the target PSCell comprises target PSCell addition/change, and performing the target PSCell addition/change in response to receiving a trigger message from a target Primary Cell (PCell) or sending a trigger message to the target PCell, wherein the trigger message is a message transmitted between the UE and the target PCell during the HO with the target PSCell.

Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing techniques for a user equipment (UE) to transmit a configured grant (CG) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) including an uplink control information (UCI) without transmitting a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH). The UE determines, based on a configuration received from the base station, a first set of CG PUSCHs. Each CG PUSCH of the first set of CG PUSCHs overlaps with the PUCCH, and is configured to transmit data from the UE to the base station. The UE further determines a second set of CG PUSCHs by excluding a third set of CG PUSCHs from the first set of CG PUSCHs. and select a CG PUSCH from the second set of CG PUSCHs to carry the UCI contained in the PUCCH. The UE further transmits the selected CG PUSCH including the UCI without transmitting the PUCCH.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for PDCCH enhancements for group-based paging indications. A user equipment device may be configured to receive, from a network, an indication of a paging occasion via a PG-RNTI and/or via at least 6 bits of a DCI. A value of the PG-RNTI may be associated with the paging occasion as well as a set of UEs, including the UE. The UE may be configured to monitor the paging occasion based on the value of the PG-RNTI and receive, during the paging occasion, a paging indication via at least six bits of a DCI, where each bit of the at least six bits may indicate a paging indication for a particular set of UEs and the particular set of UEs may be a subset of the set of UEs. The UE may also be configured to, in response to determining that the UE has a paging message, decode a corresponding PDSCH.

Abstract: SL-DRX involves both Uu and PC5 interfaces. For an RRC_CONNECTED UE (also referred to as a connected mode UE, or simply connected UE), several SL-DRX enhancements are described in this disclosure to trigger SL DRX and share configurations. Alignment of SL-DRX alignment with Uu-DRX (referred to as Uu/SL DRX alignment or simply alignment) is also described, as an optional feature (since not all schedules can temporally align).

Abstract: Techniques for flexible hybrid automatic repeat request selection by a user equipment are provided. An example method includes a user equipment (UE) processing a plurality of physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) opportunities associated with a configured grant (CG) cycle. The UE can apply a first logical channel prioritization (LCP) setting when processing a first PUSCH opportunity of the plurality of PUSCH opportunities. The UE can evaluate whether a condition for switching from the first LCP to a second LCP of the plurality of PUSCH opportunities has been met. The UE can, based on the evaluation, apply a second LCP setting when processing the second PUSCH opportunity.

Abstract: Provided is a method for a user equipment (UE), comprising: obtaining one or more indications associated with uplink transmission scheduled by one or more uplink (UL) grants, the one or more UL grants including a UL grant for a physical uplink share channel (PUSCH) with uplink control information (UCI), selecting a UL grant for transmission from the one or more UL grants based at least in part upon the one or more indications, such that the UL grant for the PUSCH with UCI is prioritized for selection, and causing a PUSCH corresponding to the selected UL grant to be transmitted.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to providing early packet delivery to radio link control. A transport block may be received by a wireless device via wireless communication. The transport block may fail a transport block cyclic redundancy check, but a subset of the code blocks of the transport block may pass code block cyclic redundancy checks. Packet data from the subset of the code blocks that pass code block cyclic redundancy checks may be provided to a radio link control layer of the wireless device, based at least in part on the successful code block cyclic redundancy checks for those code blocks.

Abstract: Performing a UE-triggered lower layer-based handover may include, based on measurements associated with both a source gNB and a target gNB, determining that a UE-triggered handover utilizing layer 1 or layer 2 is to be performed. First uplink resources configured by the source gNB for a dedicated scheduling request may be determined. The dedicated scheduling request may be generated at the UE to request second uplink resources from the gNB for a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) a handover request in a media access control (MAC) control element (CE). The handover request carried by the MAC CE for the source gNB may be generated. In response to the handover request, a handover command from the source gNB associated with performing a handover procedure from the source gNB to the target gNB may be processed.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein include methods, systems, and apparatuses for allowing a user equipment (UE) that supports dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) with uplink (UL)-shift to access a cell and barring UEs that do not support DSS with UL-shift. Embodiments may use a cell barring field in a master information block and additional filters to indicate a barring state for a network node.
