    摘要: Aspects relate to mechanisms for wireless communication devices to update transmission configuration indicator states (TCI-states), spatial relation (SR) indicators (SRIs), or pathloss reference signals (PL-RSs) for a group of two or more component carriers (CCs) for multi-component carrier communication. A radio access network (RAN) node may generate a message indicating one or more TCI-states, one or more SRs, or one or more PL-RSs to utilize for multi-CC communication. The message may include an index identifying a group of two or more CCs of a plurality of access CCs or a plurality of sidelink CCs associated with the one or more TCI-states, the one or more SRs, or the one or more PL-RSs. A user equipment (UE) may receive the message and update the one or more TCI-states, the one or more SRs, or the one or more PL-RSs for the group of two or more CC for the multi-CC communication based on the message.

    摘要: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a system information message including first system information for the UE; receive, after receiving the system information message, a system information update message indicating a change to at least a portion of the first system information; determine whether the change applies to one or more capabilities of the UE; and selectively acquire second system information based at least in part on whether the change applies to the one or more capabilities of the UE. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    摘要: A configuration for an originating wireless device to transmit one or more MAC-CEs, where each of the one or more MAC-CEs include information related to the number of MAC-CEs transmitted. The apparatus transmits at least one of a plurality of related MAC-CEs to a second wireless device based on a determination of at least a first path of a plurality of paths to transmit the at least one of the plurality of related MAC-CEs. The at least one of the plurality of related MAC-CEs indicates a number of the plurality of related MAC-CEs transmitted by the first wireless device. The apparatus monitors for a response MAC-CE from the second wireless device based on a transmission of the at least one of the plurality of related MAC-CEs. The response MAC-CE corresponds to an activation of the MAC-CE transmitted to the second wireless device.
