Abstract: A method of operating an infrastructure equipment configured for communicating with one or more communications devices via a wireless access interface. The wireless access interface comprises resource elements for carrying sub-carriers of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) symbols. Forming a downlink signal comprises selecting a plurality of component-signals from a set of component-signals, each of the component-signals from the set of component-signals being formed from a sequence of signal samples for transmission in one of the blocks of resource elements and in one of the time units by the number of OFDM symbols, each of the component-signals being detectable by a narrow bandwidth receiver, and selecting for each of the plurality of component-signals one or more of the plurality of the blocks of resource elements and one or more of the time units to transmit the component-signal.
Abstract: Examples disclosed herein include a method performed by a wireless device for transmitting a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) protocol data unit (PDU). The method comprises selecting one or both of a first path and a second path for transmitting the PDU to a destination based on a comparison of a first delay on the first path and a second delay on the second path, wherein the first delay includes a queueing delay and/or a processing delay on the first path, and/or the second delay includes a queueing delay and/or a processing delay on the second path. If both the first path and the second path are selected, the method comprises using carrier aggregation (CA) or dual connectivity (DC) to send the PDU to the destination on the first path using a first carrier and sending a duplicate of the PDU to the destination on the second path using a second carrier.

Abstract: A communication method and a system for converging a 5th-generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-generation (4G) system with a technology for internet of things (IoT) are provided. The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method and an apparatus for transmitting cell status information (CSI) in a mobile communication system are provided. The method includes receiving configuration information for a plurality of channel status information reference signals (CSI-RSs), generating feedback information by measuring at least one of the CSI-RSs based on priority information, and transmitting the feedback information.
Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may improve capability parameter signaling and handling phase discontinuity according to an absence or presence of certain capability parameters within a capability message. In one aspect, when a power amplifier capability parameter is present within a capability message, this may be treated as if a phase discontinuity capability parameter is absent from the capability message. Alternatively, in another aspect, when a power amplifier capability parameter is absent within a capability message, this may be handled as if a phase discontinuity capability parameter is present within a capability message. Thus, for band combinations that include intra-band carrier aggregation with a single band, UE may include a power amplifier capability parameter or a phase discontinuity capability parameter. For all other band combinations, the UE may refrain from including the power amplifier capability parameter and may include a phase discontinuity capability parameter in the capability message.

Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) operating in an autonomous-scheduled mode may select a first resource from a resource pool. The WTRU may determine that the first resource is reserved for at least one sidelink transmission scheduled via a network-scheduled mode. The WTRU may evaluate the availability of resources in the resource pool based on determining that the first resource is reserved for the sidelink transmission. The WTRU may determine that a resource is available based on a measurement comparison to one or more thresholds. For example, there may be a first threshold for resources reserved by WTRUs operating using the network-scheduled mode and a second threshold for resources reserved by WTRUs operating using the autonomous-scheduled mode. The first threshold may be determined based on the second threshold and an offset value. The WTRU may reselect to a second resource in the resource pool based on the evaluated resource availability.
