In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives, via one or more component carriers, one or more downlink reference signals from one or more serving or neighboring transmission-reception points (TRPs), wherein a number of the received one or more downlink reference signals is less than or equal to a maximum number of downlink path loss estimates, spatial transmit beam determinations, spatial receive beam determinations, or any combination thereof to be simultaneously maintained by the UE for positioning purposes, and wherein the maximum number does not include any downlink reference signals the UE is already monitoring for other purposes, and performs a downlink path loss estimate, a spatial transmit beam determination, a spatial receive beam determination, or any combination thereof at least based on each of the received one or more downlink reference signals.
Abstract: Techniques are described to automatically activate and deactivate standby backup paths in response to changing bandwidth requirements in an adaptive private network (APN). The APN includes one or more regular active wide area network (WAN) links in an active mode and an on-demand WAN link in a standby mode. The on-demand WAN link is activated to supplement the conduit bandwidth when an available bandwidth of the conduit falls below a pre-specified trigger bandwidth threshold and the conduit bandwidth usage exceeds a usage threshold of a bandwidth of the conduit that is being supplied by the active paths (BWc). The on-demand WAN link is deactivated to standby mode when an available bandwidth of the conduit is above the pre-specified trigger bandwidth threshold and the conduit bandwidth usage drops below the usage threshold of BWc techniques for adaptive and active bandwidth testing of WAN links in an APN are also described.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses for advertising discovery information of an AP in one or more downlink (DL) transmissions. In some implementations, the AP may allocate a dedicated resource unit (RU) for advertising discovery information of the AP to stations not associated with the AP, and may allocate one or more additional RUs for DL transmissions to one or more stations associated with the AP. The AP may transmit a multi-user (MU) packet containing discovery information intended for the unassociated stations and containing non-discovery-related information intended for the one or more associated stations. The discovery information may be transmitted on the dedicated RU, and the non-discovery-related information may be transmitted on the one or more additional RUs.

Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting an enhanced massive mobile broadband (eMBB) physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) in the presence of for ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC) users are disclosed. A eMBB wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may receive a eMBB control resource set (CORESET) configuration for a CORESET including a PDCCH preemption indicator. If PDCCH preemption is enabled based on the PDCCH preemption indicator, the eMBB WTRU may identify and remove preempted resource element groups (REGs) in the eMBB CORESET by comparing channel estimates for each REG bundle in the eMBB CORESET. The WTRU may perform channel estimation based on remaining REGs in the eMBB CORESET and detect the PDCCH by performing blind decoding, based on a received signal, on the remaining REGs in the eMBB CORESET.

Abstract: A method for a base station can create a subframe structure used in communication between the base station and a UE. The subframe structure can include a plurality of subframes each having a subframe duration. The method can include operating a serving cell on a carrier frequency. The method can include performing a LBT on the carrier frequency for a time duration that at least partially overlaps a terminal portion of a subframe duration of a first subframe of the plurality of subframes. The method can include determining a position of a starting OFDM symbol for transmitting a control channel in a second subframe of the plurality of subframes based on the time duration of the LBT. The subframe duration of the second subframe can occur immediately after the subframe duration of the first subframe.
Abstract: An apparatus for wireless communication based on sidelink accumulates a value, e.g., a token value, based on an accumulation rate of a transmit beam. When the apparatus has a packet for transmission over sidelink, the apparatus determines whether to transmit the packet over the sidelink based on a current accumulation of the value. The accumulation may be based on any of a CBR, a CR, and/or a feedback rate. A base station may measure interference on an access link of the base station and transmit a side link parameter that controls accumulation of a value at a transmitting device for the transmission of sidelink communication based on the measured interference.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for routing a plurality of session packets across a network toward a destination modifies each packet to include a sequence number that is different from the sequence number of other packets in the plurality of packets. Accordingly, at this point, each of the plurality of packets is transformed into a corresponding plurality of processed packets. The method also duplicates the plurality of processed packets to produce a corresponding plurality of duplicated packets. Next, the method forwards the plurality of processed packets toward the destination using a first stateful path through the network, and correspondingly forwards the plurality of duplicated packets toward the destination using a second stateful path through the network. In preferred embodiments, the first stateful path is different from the second stateful path. For example, the two paths may be entirely distinct in that they share no common intermediary elements.
