  • Publication number: 20240163738
    Abstract: Apparatus and method are provided for a user equipment (UE) to perform measurement operations for a handover procedure including target NR Primary Secondary Cell (PSCell) change or addition. The measurements of a target PSCell are performed in accordance with a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel (SS/PBCH) block measurement time configuration (SMTC) included in a measurement object received from a base station (BS). A source primary cell (PCell) is used for reference timing of the SMTC if the measurement object is configured by the source PCell on same frequency and subcarrier spacing of the target PSCell. A source PSCell is used for reference timing of the SMTC if the measurement object is configured by the source PSCell on same frequency and subcarrier spacing of the target PSCell.

  • Publication number: 20240155696
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE), baseband processor or other network device (e.g., base station, next generation NodeB, etc.) can operate to configure a hand over (HO) or a primary secondary cell (PSCell) addition based on a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) based contention free random access (CFRA) procedure. A CSI-RS rough timing of a CSI-RS position can be determined based on a synchronization signal block (SSB) associated with a CSI-RS or a serving cell timing. A CFRA transmit timing can be determined based on the CSI-RS rough timing or a CSI-RS fine timing that is derived from a timing and frequency (T/F) tracking operation on the CSI-RS. Reference signal receive power (RSRP) measurement(s) can be made on the CSI-RS for performing the CSI-RS based CFRA procedure with transmissions according to the CSI-RS transmit timing of the CSI-RS that satisfies an RSRP threshold.

  • Publication number: 20240155398
    Abstract: Systems and methods for analyzing a validity of an early measurement report (EMR) measurement result are described herein. A base station may configure a threshold value for EMR result validity and receive, from a user equipment (UE), a first measurement value corresponding to a first time at or before expiration of a timer associated with idle mode or inactive mode measurements. The base station receives, from the UE, a second measurement value corresponding to a second time when a radio resource control (RRC) connection setup or resume procedure starts. The base station then determines, based on a comparison of the threshold value to a difference between the first measurement value and the second measurement value, whether the EMR result is valid.

  • Patent number: 11979760
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) monitors a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) in multiple component carriers (CC). The UE determines if the UE is operating in carrier aggregation (CA) mode having a first CC in a first frequency band and a second CC in a second frequency band. When the UE is operating in CA with a first CC in the first frequency band and the second CC in the second frequency band, the UE determines a span pattern for PDCCH symbols being received on the first and second CC and selects a PDCCH monitoring type based on, at least, the span pattern. A UE also determines if a first CC and a second CC of a CA combination are collocated and selects a PDCCH monitoring type based on, at least, the determination of whether the first and second CC are collocated.

  • Publication number: 20240147423
    Abstract: This disclosure provides details of sequence-based WUS design and signaling, also DCI-based WUS design which also serves as scheduling DCI. For sequence-based WUS there are two variants. A first is based on CSI-RS, that is relatively wide band so the sequence occupies wider band compared to SSB transmission. The second is more akin to the Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS) type of sequence in that it occupies a narrower band over the entire bandwidth.
