Abstract: Provided are a method for performing wireless communication by a first device, and an apparatus for supporting same. The method may comprise: receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message including information related to configured grant (CG) from a base station, wherein the information related to the CG include information for an offset related to the CG and information for a period related to the CG; based on at least one resource pool being configured for the first apparatus, performing sidelink transmission to a second apparatus based on sidelink resources determined from among candidate resources allocated by the CG in the at least one resource pool. For example, the sidelink resources determined from among the candidate resources allocated by the CG are located after the offset related to the CG from the closest sidelink slot after the time when the system frame number (SFN) is zero.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a sidelink bandwidth part (BWP) configuration. The UE may detect an active sidelink BWP on a component carrier based at least in part on the sidelink BWP configuration. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Systems and methods for setting a carrier-sensing mechanism in a PLC node are disclosed. In a PLC standard, coexistence is achieved by having the nodes detect a common preamble and backing off by a Coexistence InterFrame Space (cEIFS) time period to help the node to avoid interfering with the other technologies. In one embodiment, a PHY primitive is sent from the PHY to the MAC know that there has been a preamble detection. A two-level indication may be used—one indication after receiving the preamble and other indication after decoding the entire frame. The MAC sets the carrier-sensing mechanism based on the preamble detection.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for cancellation and/or replacement of PUSCHs. A user equipment device (UE) may configure a first PUSCH and a second PUSCH, where the first PUSCH may correspond to a configured grant and where the second PUSCH may correspond to a configured grant or scheduled by a PDCCH on a serving cell. The UE may determine that at least one transmission occasion associated with the first PUSCH overlaps in time with at least one transmission occasion associated with the second PUSCH. The UE may drop transmissions scheduled for the second PUSCH, e.g., based on determining that a priority of the first PUSCH is higher than a priority of the second PUSCH, e.g., starting with a first symbol of a repetition of the second PUSCH which overlaps in time with one or more repetitions of the first PUSCH.

Abstract: Messages are transmitted in closely-spaced subcarriers in 5G and 6G, configured so that each subcarrier signal is orthogonal to the adjacent subcarrier signals. However, many effects can penetrate that orthogonality—distortion, interference, frequency variations, amplitude variations, crosstalk, etc.—collectively termed energy spill-over. To combat this problem, a receiver can determine the total energy spill-over into adjacent subcarriers by measuring a residual signal in a subcarrier with no transmission, adjacent to another subcarrier with a known transmission. The receiver can measure the amplitude, phase, temporal or spectral properties, and so forth of the residual signal. The receiver can then correct the message during signal processing, by calculating a function of the residual signal and subtracting it from each digitized subcarrier signal of a message.

Abstract: A method for switching clock sources is provided. In the method, Precision Time Protocol, PTP, packets are monitored using each of PTP ports which connect to a new grandmaster (401). A frequency and a phase for the PTP port are calculated based on the PTP packets (402). In response to a successful check for the frequency and the phase, the PTP port is added to a candidate list (403). A phase calibration and a phase stability check may be introduced prior to the alternate BMCA.

Abstract: A group of radio network nodes (14) performs automatic synchronization source selection using Radio-interface Based Synchronization, based on the exchange of clock-attribute information between respective nodes (14) via inter-node connections. Access to the clock-attribute information for other nodes (14) in the same domain or subdomain allows a given node (14) to select the best or most preferred synchronization source for use in synchronizing its own clock (44), based on a combined or joint evaluation of parameters or metrics that include the reception quality of OTA signals from respective ones of the candidate nodes (14) and the corresponding clock-attribute information. Further parameters or metrics may be evaluated in the selection, such as neighbor-relation considerations. The combined use of OTA synchronization signaling and clock-attribute information exchanges, e.g.

Abstract: A network interface controller (NIC) associated with a virtual machine (VM) in a cloud computing network is configured to be flexibly attached and detached from a parent NIC to thereby enable the virtual machine to simultaneously be attached to multiple different virtual networks (VNets) and/or subnets that are associated with the same or different subscriptions. The inventive NIC, referred to herein as a flexibly extensible NIC (eNIC), enables a service provider to inject compute instances into an existing VNet using a multi-homing configuration in which the data plane uses a dedicated network interface to connect the customer's VNet, while another dedicated network interface provides management plane connectivity to the service provider. Such multi-VNet homing advantageously provides data plane isolation for the customer's VNet to comply with applicable security policies without disrupting management traffic between the injected resources and the service provider.

Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a system which facilitates scaling of routing in an EVPN. During operation, the system determines, in an Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN), a plurality of virtual tunnel endpoints (VTEPs) coupled to a plurality of subnets, wherein a respective subnet includes one or more hosts, wherein a first VTEP is configured with a first number of host routes for a first subnet coupled to a second VTEP, and wherein each of the first number of host routes corresponds to a host residing in the first subnet. Responsive to detecting that a total number of routes configured on the first VTEP exceeds a first predetermined threshold, the system aggregates the first number of host routes by replacing the first number of host routes with a first prefix route which indicates the first subnet.

The method generally includes receiving, from a network entity, signaling that schedules an uplink or downlink transmission on resources that overlap with a time gap for switching from a first set of frequency resources to a second set of frequency resources; and taking an action to process the uplink or downlink transmission so that the uplink or downlink transmission does not overlap with the time gap.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing a network protocol for view replication over an unreliable network are described herein. A sender and a receiver may apply a branching time model to the history of views to replicate the views consistently. The sender may send a first data packet to receiver. The first data packet may comprise a first sequence number identifying the first data packet, a source version number, and a first set of one or more changes to be applied to a first state identified by the source version number. Based on a determination that an acknowledgment message indicating receipt of the first data packet is not received, the sender may send a second data packet to the client device. The content of the second data packet may be determined based on the first data packet.

The restrictions may differentiate data originating from the first device and the second device, restrict the first device to one or more resources, or associate logical channels at the first device with one or more transport block sizes and communication links. The second device may relay the indication of the restrictions to the first device. The first device, the second device, and the base station may communicate over the communication link according to the restrictions.
