Abstract: Embodiments of a user equipment (UE) configured for new-radio (NR) operations in a fifth-generation (5G) system (5GS) may be configured to detect a downlink-control information (DCI) format that includes a one-shot hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) request field and a frequency domain resource assignment field (FDRA). The one-shot HARQ-ACK request field may indicate whether one-shot HARQ-ACK feedback is triggered. The UE may decode the FDRA field to determine whether the FDRA field indicates a valid frequency resource or whether the FDRA field indicates a special value and may also be configured to determine whether or not a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) is scheduled by the DCI format and whether or not secondary cell (SCell) dormancy switching is triggered based on both the one-shot HARQ-ACK request field and the FDRA field. The UE may also encode a HARQ-ACK transmission on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH).

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure further provide an apparatus and a method for wireless communication. The apparatus includes processing circuitry that receives, from a base station (BS), a downlink (DL) grant scheduling an uplink (UL) transmission to the BS. The DL grant indicates a first type of channel access procedure for the UL transmission. The processing circuitry further receives channel occupancy information for a channel occupancy that is initiated by the BS. The processing circuitry switches, from the first type of channel access procedure, to a second type of channel access procedure for the UL transmission according to the first type of channel access procedure and the channel occupancy information.

Abstract: A first radio device may send SL control information to a second radio device. The SL control information indicates at least one radio resource for transmission of a reference signal from the first radio device. The second radio device receives the reference signal. Further, the second radio device may forward the received sidelink control information to one or more other radio devices. Based on the received reference signal, the second radio device estimates quality of a radio channel between the first radio device and the second radio device. The estimated quality of the radio channel, may be used to control an SL radio transmission between the first radio device and the second radio device.

Abstract: Aspects relate to determining whether to conduct a scheduled communication after a bandwidth part (BWP) for the scheduled communication has been changed. In some examples, a user equipment (UE) receives a first indication from a base station (BS) that schedules a communication associated with a first BWP. Subsequently, upon receiving a second indication (e.g., a DCI or a slot format indicator (SFI)) from the BS indicative of a change in the first BWP, the UE determines whether to conduct the scheduled communication. For example, the second DCI may indicate a change in a second BWP that imparts a change on the first BWP or the second DCI may explicitly indicate a change in the first BWP. As another example, an SFI may indicate that at least one symbol for the first BWP has been changed from uplink to downlink, or vice versa.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for use in a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) for receiving and transmitting information blocks is disclosed. A WTRU receives transmitted broadcast information, the transmitted broadcast information including a first information block and a second information block.

After the transmission of the random access preamble, the WTRU may receive a random access response. Based on information in the received random access response, the WTRU may transmit a message including control information indicating additional information blocks that the WTRU is requesting to receive. After transmission of the transmitted message, the WTRU may receive the additional information blocks. In an example, the transmitted broadcast information may be periodically transmitted broadcast information.

The number of uplink subframes may be indicated by the uplink scheduling parameter.

Abstract: A method performed by a base station (BS) is provided. The method transmits, to a user equipment (UE), a radio resource control (RRC) message that carries a configuration for a configured downlink (DL) transmission on a first DL channel and a configured uplink (UL) transmission on a UL channel.

The UL channel includes a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) feedback.

Abstract: Example implementation relates to a method of failure detection and seamless traffic switchover in a VPN system. A cluster of nodes exchange heartbeat messages to detect a failure at a first node in the cluster. When failure is detected at the first node, a master node transmits a failover message to a network end node connected to the first node. The failover message includes a list of active nodes to which traffic may be routed. The network end node updates its routing table based on the failover message and switches the traffic to a second node in the cluster of nodes.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may use information received as part of a two-step random access channel (RACH) procedure to indicate that the two-step RACH procedure has been completed. For example, a UE may perform a two-step RACH procedure that includes the UE transmitting a first message to a base station and, in response, receiving a second message from a base station. The second message may include feedback information the UE uses to signal that the RACH procedure has been completed. In some examples, the feedback information may indicate a physical channel or grant, or both, and a third message may be transmitted by the UE based on the feedback information included in the second message. As such, the third message may serve as an indication that the second message was received, and the UE completed the RACH procedure.
