Abstract: A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) determines a downlink/uplink (DL/UL) switching capability of the UE, and reports the DL/UL switching capability to a network. The DL/UL switching capability may indicate a quantity of DL/UL switch points, N, supported by the UE, and a time duration to which the quantity of DL/UL switch points is applied. The DL/UL switching capability may indicate a minimum link duration for which the UE should maintain a link direction after a previous DL/UL switch operation and before a next DL/UL switch operation. The DL/UL switching capability may include a DL/UL switching delay indicating a time specified for the UE to complete a DL/UL switching operation. The DL/UL switching capability may be based on a reference subcarrier spacing (SCS).

A wireless device such as a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a scheduling device such as a base station, control signaling which indicates a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration scheduling a burst of multiple downlink shared channel transmission opportunities during an SPS interval. Based on receiving the SPS configuration, the UE may receive downlink signaling from the base station in a downlink shared channel transmission opportunity of the SPS interval. In some other aspects, a UE may receive control signaling which indicates a configured grant (CG) that schedules a burst of multiple uplink shared channel transmission opportunities during a CG timing interval. Based on receiving the CG, the UE may transmit uplink signaling to the base station in an uplink shared channel transmission opportunity indicated by the CG.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing measurements of one or more cells during an small data transmission (SDT) procedure between a user equipment (UE) and a network when the UE is in a radio resource control (RRC) INACTIVE state are described herein. Beam and/or cell measurements taken during an SDT measurement period of the SDT procedure may be used to determine one or more respective cell qualities, among other possibilities. Beginnings and endings of the SDT measurement period, and the manner (timing) for taking measurements within the SDT measurement period, are also described. The cell qualities so determined can then be used to monitor, during the SDT measurement period, for a measurement event, which causes the UE to send a measurement report to the network having data determined using those cell qualities, and/or to send messaging intended to induce the network to change the RRC state of the UE.
