    Abstract: Techniques discussed herein can facilitate configuration by a network of one or more measurement gaps based at least in part on UE (User Equipment) assistance. One example embodiment employable by a UE (User Equipment) comprises a memory interface; and processing circuitry configured to: generate UE capability information that comprises, for each measurement scenario of one or more measurement scenarios, an indication of whether the UE is capable of non-gap measurement in connection with that measurement scenario, wherein each measurement scenario applies to one or more associated serving frequencies and one or more associated measurement objects; and process configuration signaling that comprises, for each measurement scenario of the one or more measurement scenarios, an associated indication of whether an associated measurement gap is configured for that measurement scenario.

    Abstract: Described is an apparatus of a User Equipment (UE). The apparatus may comprise a first circuitry, a second circuitry, and a third circuitry. The first circuitry may be operable to determine that the UE is in an Inactive Radio Resource Control (RRC) state. The second circuitry may be operable to process a first transmission received by the UE while the UE is in the Inactive RRC state, the first transmission carrying a set of one or more Access Control (AC) parameters. The third circuitry may be operable to regulate the sending of a second transmission, in accordance with the set of one or more AC parameters, while the UE is in the Inactive RRC state.

    Abstract: An apparatus to be used in a UE in a mobile communication network to communicate with a base station, includes a memory configured to store a RRC message, and processing circuitry configured to decode the RRC message to obtain BWP configuration information and mapping information, identify one or more UL BWPs and one or more DL BWPs within a carrier bandwidth per Serving Cell based on the BWP configuration information, identify one or more SR configurations which a LCH is mapped to for the UL BWPs based on the mapping information, the LCH being mapped to none or one SR configuration for each of the UL BWPs, identify activation of a UL BWP of the UL BWPs, and encode an SR on a PUCCH based on a SR configuration for the UL BWP.
