    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for handling a radio link failure timer in the presence of a conditional handover command. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving, from a serving cell, a conditional handover command for handing over the UE to a target neighbor cell, wherein the conditional handover command includes one or more triggering conditions for executing a handover to a candidate target cell; monitoring one or more first signals from the candidate target cell for the one or more triggering conditions; and performing one of: stopping a timer based on performing a conditional handover to the target candidate cell; or detecting a timer has expired while monitoring the one or more first signals from the candidate target cell for the one or more triggering conditions.

    Abstract: Device and techniques for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may switch from a first bandwidth part (BWP) configuration to a second BWP configuration based on a trigger for transitioning from a first activity state to a second activity state with respect to a cell group. The trigger may be an expiration of a timer at the UE, or the UE may receive control signaling indicating the transition. The second BWP configuration may be based on a mode configured at the UE associated with the second activity state. The configured mode may indicate one or more measurements the UE is to perform while in the second activity state. In some examples, the BWP configuration may include configured BWPs based on the indicated measurements of the configured mode.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described related to timer-based sidelink discontinuous reception (DRX). A UE may receive configuration information for a sidelink DRX mode from a base station or another UE, which may indicate one or more parameters of the sidelink DRX mode. When operating in the sidelink DRX mode, a group of UEs may have shared active durations and inactive durations for coordinating sidelink communications. In a timer-based sidelink DRX mode, if a UE receives or transmits a sidelink communication, the UE may initiate an inactivity timer, and the UE may continue to monitor a sidelink channel for other sidelink communications while the timer is running. One or more rules may govern the operation of an inactivity timer with respect to the shared inactive durations.

    Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to mobility with consideration for network slicing are provided. In one embodiment, a user equipment (UE) transmits in a first cell frequency of a network, a request for a network slice of the network that is not provided by the first cell frequency. The UE receives, in response to the request, an information for communicating in a second cell frequency of the network that provides the requested network slice. In one embodiment, a core network entity receives, from a network entity operating over a first cell frequency of a network, a request to provide a network slice of the network to a UE, the network slice not provided by the first cell frequency. The core network entity transmits, to the BS, information associated with a second cell frequency of the network providing the network slice.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses for a user equipment (UE) performing Listen Before Talk (LBT) procedures during a handover, such as during a dual active protocol stack (DAPS) handover or a conditional handover. During the handover, the UE may have a source connection with a source cell. If the source cell is unlicensed, the UE may perform LBT for a channel of the source cell. The UE may establish a target connection with a target cell before releasing the source connection with the source cell. If the target cell is unlicensed, the UE may perform LBT for a channel of the target cell.
