    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for determining whether a user equipment (UE) and a base station of a radio access network (RAN) configured to operate according to compatible variants of a standardized radio access technology (RAT). In some cases, a standard development organization for a geographic territory may modify a standardized RAT in a way that creates a new variant (also referred to as a forked deviation) of the RAT. Depending on what changes are made, the new variant may be compatible or incompatible with the original standardized RAT. This disclosure enables the UE to determine according to which variant of the RAT the RAN is configured to operate and manage connections to the RAN based whether the UE and the RAN are configured to operate according to compatible variants of the RAT.

    Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and computer program products for handover are provided. An example method may include receiving a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission from a network entity, the PDSCH transmission comprising a set of radio resource control (RRC) messages, each RRC message in the set of RRC messages comprises a respective group handover configuration in a set of group handover configurations associated with a respective UE in a set of UEs including the UE, the set of RRC messages being included in a set of medium access control (MAC) service data units (SDUs) (MAC SDUs) in a MAC protocol data unit (PDU). The example method may further include processing a first subset of the MAC SDUs that are associated with the UE and discard a second subset the MAC SDUs that are not applicable to the UE.

    Abstract: Certain aspects provide a method of wireless communications by a user equipment, such as a low-power user equipment. The method includes receiving, from one grouped user equipment of a first group of user equipments, an indication that the user equipment is a current group leader of the first group of user equipments; receiving, from one or more grouped user equipments of the first group of user equipments via a first wireless transceiver system, one or more data requests; and sending, to a network entity via a second wireless transceiver system, one or more data payloads associated with the one or more data requests.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for wireless communication including an apparatus, e.g., a user equipment (UE) and/or base station. In one aspect, the apparatus can determine to enter into a two-step RACH procedure in an RRC inactive state. The apparatus can also determine to transmit uplink data in a payload of a message A (MsgA) of the two-step RACH procedure. The apparatus can also transmit the MsgA of the two-step RACH procedure, the MsgA including the payload, the payload including at least the uplink data. Additionally, the apparatus can monitor for a MsgB of the two-step RACH procedure. The apparatus can also receive the MsgB of the two-step RACH procedure, where the MsgB includes a fallback indication including a fallback RAR. Further, the apparatus can retransmit the payload of the MsgA when the MsgB including the fallback indication is received.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a UE capability request message. The UE may transmit, to the base station in response to the UE capability request message, a UE capability information message that indicates one or more UE capabilities associated with one of a non-terrestrial network (NTN), a terrestrial network (TN), or both the NTN and the TN. Numerous other aspects are described.
