Abstract: A broadcast service network (separate from a cellular network) includes broadcast service signal (BSS) nodes that broadcast signals to receivers of user equipment (UE). The BSS may provide broadcast service information to user equipment, such as the emergency notifications, even when the user equipment is out of range of the cellular network. Further, the broadcast service signals may provide information that improves the user equipment's search and access time for connecting to the cellular network (e.g., a cellular service station) and/or that assists the user equipment in locating a nearby region of cellular network coverage. In addition, the BSS may be wake-up signals configured to activate the receiver when the receiver is in a sleep or inactive mode. In some embodiments, the BSS may be pointer signals configured to direct the user equipment to a broadcast service channel to receive the broadcast service information.

Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components, including apparatus, systems, and methods for measuring serving cell configuration. The user equipment may detect a condition, and based on the condition, it may determine a configuration associated with a set of requirements. The requirements may be associated with determining a maximum transmit power or power back-offs. The UE may determine the maximum transmit power based on the configuration. Based on the maximum transmit power, UE may perform power control or other algorithms to determine the transmit power used to transmit a signal to the network.

Abstract: A wake-up signal (WUS) network (separate from a cellular network) includes WUS nodes that broadcast WUSs targeting WUS receivers of user equipment (UE). The WUSs may have low frequencies, such as within a television whitespace spectrum. When the cellular network determines that a UE should enter a power saving mode, or when a cellular receiver of the UE enters an idle state, the cellular network may request resources for the UE from a WUS node and activate a WUS receiver of the UE. When the cellular network has data to send to the UE or a threshold time has expired, the cellular network may request a WUS from the WUS network, which broadcasts the WUS that may be received by the UE. If the UE has data to transmit to the cellular network, the cellular network may request that the WUS node stop providing resources to the UE.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and devices configured to perform operations including: transmitting capability information that indicates a number of resources blocks (RBs) that a user equipment (UE) supports for non-terrestrial network (NTN) communications in a satellite frequency band; receiving, in accordance with the capability information, scheduling information that allocates one or more RBs in the satellite frequency band for NTN communications between the UE and a network entity; and performing, in accordance with the scheduling information, the NTN communications using the one or more allocated RBs in the satellite frequency band. In some examples, the capability information indicates (i) a number of RBs supported by the UE for NTN communications in the satellite frequency band or (ii) a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) that can be used for the NTN communications in the satellite frequency band.

Abstract: An electronic device discussed herein may communicatively couple to a base station. The base station may receive a first paging cycle assignment corresponding to a first subscriber identification module (SIM) card and determine a second paging cycle assignment for use with a second SIM card. The second paging cycle assignment may be generated based on the first paging cycle assignment. The base station may communicate with the electronic device using the second paging cycle assignment. The second paging cycle assignment may guide the base station to transmit data to the electronic device without interrupting a transmission made according to the first paging cycle assignment.

Abstract: The present application relates to improve the data communications between a user equipment (UE) and a base station. In an example, the UE can indicate, to the base station, its support of pairing an uplink band with a downlink band to define a frequency division duplex (FDD) band. The uplink band can belong to a first frequency band, whereas the downlink band can belong to a second frequency band. The base station can configure the FDD band for the UE in association with a cell. Data communications can accordingly be performed using FDD.

Abstract: A base station may send an indication of frequency subranges supported by the base station to user equipment, which may respond with an indication of the frequency subranges that are also supported by the user equipment. Additionally, a Spectrum Access System (SAS) controller, using environmental sensing capability sensors, may determine whether non-federal networks are disposed in a coverage area of a base station and neighboring coverage areas. If so, then the SAS may indicate to the base station to send an indication to user equipment in the coverage area to operate using a default power mode. Otherwise, the SAS may indicate to the base station to send an indication to the user equipment to operate using a lower power mode. Moreover, a base station may indicate a regulatory requirement to user equipment using network signaling value of multiple network signaling values corresponding to multiple regulatory requirements of multiple geographical regions.

Abstract: This disclosure provides various techniques for enabling user equipment to communicate with a non-terrestrial communication hub or network of non-terrestrial communication hubs via a non-terrestrial network (NTN). By conforming NTN communications to standards and regulations for terrestrial cellular communications, network capabilities of the user equipment may be enhanced. This may be accomplished by defining frequency band identifiers (IDs) for NTN frequency bands and various uplink and downlink frequencies within the NTN frequency bands.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a communication technique for converging a 5G communication system, which is provided to support a higher data transmission rate beyond a 4G system with an IoT technology, and a system therefor. The disclosure may be applied to intelligent services (e.g., smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car or connected car, health care, digital education, retail business, security and safety related service, or the like) based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT related technology. The disclosure relates to a method for recovering a beam into a correct beam according to a position of a terminal using a non-contention-based and contention-based beam failure recovery method in order to recover a beam failure in which communication is disconnected due to movement of a terminal or the like in a wireless communication system performing beam-based communication services.

Abstract: Embodiments herein provide various apparatuses and techniques that indicate multiple power classes that user equipment may support to a network. The user equipment may support at least a lower power class (e.g., having a lower maximum transmission power) and a higher power class (e.g., having a higher maximum transmission power) to the network. The user equipment may send indications to the network that it supports both the lower power class and the higher power class. If the network/user equipment are in a geographical region associated with regulations limiting transmission power to the lower maximum transmission power, then the network may configure a transmission power characteristic based on the lower power class. If the network/user equipment are in a geographical region associated with regulations limiting transmission power to the higher maximum transmission power, then the network may configure the transmission power characteristic based on the higher power class.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein include methods, systems, and apparatuses for allowing a user equipment (UE) that supports dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) with uplink (UL)-shift to access a cell and barring UEs that do not support DSS with UL-shift. Embodiments may use a cell barring field in a master information block and additional filters to indicate a barring state for a network node.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein relate to techniques for measuring and/or detecting a signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) of a received signal at a user equipment (UE). The received signal may include a desired signal, co-channel interference, adjacent channel interference, and an in-band blocker. The UE may filter (e.g., remove) the various interferences and in-band blocker. The UE may determine or measure a power (or Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)) of the desired signal and a power (or RSSI) of the co-channel interference separately because the desired signal and the co-channel interference overlap in frequency. To do so, the UE may determine a total power of the received signal including the desired signal and co-channel interference. The UE may receive the desired signal again while an uplink transmission is deactivated (and thus without the interference). The UE may then calculate the SIR based on the total power and the power of the desired signal.

Abstract: User equipment may transmit and receive wireless signals to and from various communication networks. Furthermore, user equipment may indicate usage capabilities to the various wireless communication networks to enable the user equipment to transmit and/or receive wireless signals to and from at least two different communication networks. In particular, the user equipment may indicate usage capabilities of supporting both Frequency Range 2 (FR2) wireless signals of a fifth generation (5G) network and 7-24 gigahertz (GHz) wireless signals of a sixth generation (6G) network in an intermediate frequency range of the user equipment. The communication network(s) may then configure and/or schedule the user equipment based on the usage capabilities to enable the user equipment to simultaneously or non-simultaneously communicate using both the FR2 wireless signals and the 7-24 GHz wireless signals while preventing interference in the intermediate frequency range of the user equipment.

Abstract: User equipment may include a transmitter coupled to an antenna to enable the user equipment to transmit data with a communication node and/or a non-terrestrial network. The user equipment may transmit using high power over a period of time such that the transmission power of the user equipment is below an emission threshold. For example, the user equipment may adjust a buffer status report to reduce uplink allocation frequency. In another example, the user equipment may determine a duty cycle and transmit the data using high power based on the duty cycle. In another example, the user equipment may determine a priority of uplink symbols and transmit certain uplink symbols using high power. In this way, the user equipment may transmit using high power and may improve transmission range to the non-terrestrial network and/or a likelihood that transmissions may be received by the network while remaining within the emission threshold.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for indicating to a spectrum access system communication preferences of a base station and/or of a network operator. Different methods may be used to indicate the communication preferences, including a dedicated type parameter transmitted with spectrum allocation requests from the base station, a rule-based system where the spectrum access system accesses communication preferences of the base station and/or network operator through an identifier corresponding to a rule definition, or the like. The spectrum access system may assign a channel to the network operator based on its communication preferences, such as to determine a channel assignment to correspond to a channel aligned with a raster of communications to be used by the network operator.
