Abstract: A relay user equipment (UE) can relay communication between remote UEs and a network entity via one or more remote device end-to-end (E2E) radio bearers (RB s) established between the network entity and the remote UEs. The remote device E2E radio bearers can be multiplexed into one or more logical channel between the relay UE and the network entity. The relay UE and/or the network entity can allocate communication resources to the remote UEs in consideration of the E2E bearer quality of service (QoS) requirement using, for example, logical channel prioritization at the relay UE and/or different buffer status reports that can provide information on the remote UEs and E2E bearers to facilitate the allocation of resources.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications by a transmitter user equipment (UE). The transmitter UE generates a message authentication code, based on information within a sidelink master information block (SL-MIB) and a key shared between the transmitter UE and a receiver UE. The transmitter UE transmits a sidelink broadcast channel (SL-BCH) transmission carrying the SL-MIB and the message authentication code.

Abstract: In some implementations, a network node of a wireless network may determine that a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection state of a Uu interface of the target UE comprises an inactive or idle state. The network node may determine a time during which the target UE will be in a sidelink (SL) active state, wherein the SL active state comprises a state of operation in which the target UE monitors communication via one or more SL interfaces, transmits communication via the one or more SL interfaces, or both. The network node may send a message, the message for obtaining positioning measurements of the target UE using one or more SL devices corresponding to the one or more SL interfaces, wherein obtaining the positioning measurements is performed while (i) the RRC connection state comprises the inactive or idle state, and (ii) the target UE is in the SL active state.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A multicast architecture may support flexible change between unicast and multicast operations and may support additional traffic types (e.g., Internet Protocol and Ethernet traffic). For example, the multicast architecture may include transmitting data over a shared multicast radio bearer (MRB) and/or specific data radio bearers (DRBs), a multicast user plane function (UPF) for supplying the multicast data to a base station, multicast data from different radio access networks (RANs), protecting the multicast data through creating a group key, ciphering the multicast data sent on the MRB using the group key, and transitioning the multicast data from a source RAN to a target RAN.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for wireless communication of an apparatus, e.g., a wireless device and/or a UE. In one aspect, the apparatus may receive a configuration for inter-RAT or intra-RAT sidelink carrier aggregation including one or more inter-RAT or intra-RAT CA parameters. The apparatus may also determine one or more inter-RAT or intra-RAT carriers for SL CA based on the configuration for inter-RAT or intra-RAT SL CA. The apparatus may also transmit, to at least one second wireless device, an indication of the one or more inter-RAT or intra-RAT carriers for SL CA.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a network node, a first indication, associated with a sidelink communication, of at least one of whether sidelink carrier aggregation is supported or a first one or more component carriers associated with the sidelink communication. The UE may receive, from the network node based on transmitting the indication, a second indication that a transmission associated with the sidelink communication is to be duplicated for multiple component carriers. The UE may transmit, based on the second indication, the sidelink communication via each of a plurality of component carriers that include at least one component carrier from the first one or more component carriers. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: The positioning capabilities of a User Equipment (UE) are stored in a core network to reduce positioning latency when the UE indicates that its positioning capabilities are stable and/or are long term valid. The UE may provide its positioning capabilities to a location server during a location session along with an indication of whether the positioning capabilities are stable. The location server may enable storage of the positioning capabilities for the UE in the core network, e.g., in the location server or another entity in the core network such as Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF), if there is an indication that the positioning capabilities are stable. The AMF may include a UE identifier in location requests with which the location server may retrieve the UE positioning capabilities if stored at the location server or may include the UE positioning capabilities if stored at the AMF.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communication at a first user equipment (UE). The method generally includes receiving, from a second UE, sidelink control information (SCI) scheduling a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH), determining a sequence for providing feedback for the PSSCH, from a plurality of possible sequences, based on one or more parameters, and transmitting the sequence via a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) as feedback for the PSSCH.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first wireless communication device (WCD) may initiate, based at least in part on a determination to participate in user-equipment-to-user-equipment (U2U) relay communication, a discovery procedure to discover one or more of access to a second WCD or services provided by the second WCD, the second WCD being accessible via a third WCD. The WCD may communicate, for example U2U communications, with the second WCD via the third WCD based at least in part on the discovery procedure. Numerous other aspects are provided.
