Abstract: Method, apparatus and computer program product where a base station broadcasts a signal indicating that at least one time-frequency region, which is unused by a data transmission in a first radio access technology, is available for a transmission, allowing the base station to maintain support for and/or extending coverage of certain legacy user equipment. Such a transmission includes system information for a second radio access technology, wake-up signal, synchronization signal, and/or extension of the data transmission. Thereafter, the base station transmits such a transmission in the at least one time-frequency region that was indicated.

Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) assisted communication. For example, RIS assisted blockage avoidance for low power internet of things (IoT) devices. An apparatus performs communication with a network device via a RIS, using at least one of a first channel or a second channel, wherein the first channel is for a transmission to the RIS and the second channel is for a reception from the RIS. In this way, it is possible to help reconnecting an IoT device with the network that has lost its connection with a gNB by using an RIS. It is also provided a low-cost and low-power connectivity solution for low-power IoT devices.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices and computer readable storage medium for transport block size (TBS) configuration. In example embodiments, a terminal device transmits a random access preamble to a network device. The terminal device receives a random access response from the network device. The random access response includes a resource allocated for a reference TBS. Based on the reference TBS, the terminal device determines a TBS for transmitting data to the network device. Then, the terminal device transmits the data to the network device by using the determined TBS and the allocated resource. This TBS configuration is more flexible.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for physical broadcast channel extension are provided. For example, a method can include mapping, by the network element, symbols of a physical channel to a first set of resource elements. The method can also include identifying, by the network element, a portion of the symbols of the physical channel mapped outside a second set of resource elements. The second set of resource elements can be a subset of the first set of resource elements, The method can further include preparing, by the network element, replacement symbols corresponding to a first portion of the physical channel outside the second set of resource elements. The method can additionally include mapping, by the network element, the replacement symbols to the second set of resource elements in extension symbols. The method can also include transmitting, by the network element, the physical channel and the extension symbols.
