Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive synchronization signal block (SSB) related measurement configurations exclusively in a system information block (SIB). The UE may receive SSB frequency lists for idle measurements in both a SIB or a radio resource control (RRC) message, such as an RRC release message. In some examples, the UE may receive SSB related measurement configurations or SSB frequency lists for idle measurements in a SIB and an RRC message. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may receive SSB frequency lists in a SIB and an RRC message, while SSB measurement configurations for SSB frequencies out of a sync raster may exclusively be indicated in the RRC message. The UE may therefore experience improved coverage and reliability and, in some examples, may promote low latency for wireless communications relating to multiple radio access technologies, among other benefits.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, apparatus, computer programs encoded on computer readable-medium to provide a user equipment (UE) to receive reference signals from a first base station, perform radio resource management (RRM) measurements based on the reference signals, and transmit information regarding the RRM measurements to a second base station. In another aspect, a UE receives reference signals from a first base station, performs channel quality indicator (CQI) measurements based on the reference signals, stores information regarding the CQI measurements, and transmitting the stored information to the first base station. In another aspect, a base station receives, from a UE, information associated with CQI measurements related to a second base station, and transmits the information to the second base station.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a user equipment (UE) reporting unified access control (UAC) measurements to a network. In an example operation, the UE receives a configuration from the network indicating one or more measurements (e.g., UAC measurements) to record. Thereafter, the UE performs an attempt to access the network and records the one or more measurements associated with the attempt. The UE then reports, to the network, an availability of the one or more measurements after the attempt is performed. The UE may then receive from the network a request for at least one measurement of the one or more measurements. If so, the UE reports the at least one measurement to the network. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

Abstract: Aspects relate to an allocation of periodic resources where use of the periodic resources is conditional. In some examples, a user equipment (UE) receives a periodic resource allocation along with an indication of a condition for using the periodic resources. For example, the UE may be allowed to transmit on at least one first resource of the periodic resources if the condition is true. Similarly, a base station (BS) may monitor for a transmission by the UE on the at least one first resource if the condition is true.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may determine to operate as a relay UE based on a set of thresholds configured for the first UE. The UE may transmit a relay discovery announcement on a communication channel of a sidelink to indicate support for relay communications. A remote UE may monitor for and receive the relay discovery announcement on the sidelink communications channel. The remote UE may select the relay UE based on a set of criteria for selecting a candidate relay UE. The remote UE and the relay UE may establish the relay communications based on the relay discovery announcement transmitted on the communications channel of the relay sidelink.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a base station associated with a first radio access network (RAN) may transmit, and a user equipment (UE) may receive, a paging message while the UE is operating in an inactive or idle mode on the first RAN and while the UE is operating in a connected mode on a second RAN. The UE may transmit a response rejecting the paging message to the base station associated with the first RAN, and the response may include information that causes the base station to release the UE to the inactive or idle mode. Accordingly, the base station may transmit, to the UE, a radio resource control message that includes information to release the UE to the inactive or idle mode on the first RAN. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: The present disclosure provide various methods, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for managing communication paths, which may include at least one direct communication path between UEs, such as a sidelink communication path. Illustratively, an apparatus of the present disclosure may be a UE or component thereof that is configured to establish a direct wireless communication link and an indirect wireless communication link with another UE to carry data associated with one traffic stream. Further, the apparatus may be configured to communicate with the other UE over at least one of the direct communication link or the indirect communication link after the direct communication link and the indirect communication link are established with the other UE.

Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and computer program products for relaying and side link communication are provided. An example method may include receiving, from a BS via a controlled discovery procedure, a query to verify a sidelink procedure with at least one UE. The example method may further include establishing, via the BS as a L2 relay, the sidelink procedure with the at least one UE. The example method may further include switching from the sidelink procedure to a sidelink PDCP procedure with a hybrid mode, the BS being an L2 relay for the sidelink PDCP procedure. The example method may further include transmitting to the at least one UE via the BS as the L2 relay, or receiving, from the at least one UE via the BS as an L2 relay, one or more PDCP PDUs corresponding to L2.
