  • Publication number: 20240172310
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is connected to a wireless network and operates in a carrier aggregation (CA) state that includes a first connection to a primary cell and a second connection to a secondary cell. The UE determines a beam failure has occurred for one of the first connection or the second connection and initiates a beam failure recovery (BFR) operation. The BFR operation includes transmitting, to the primary cell, a BFR Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE).

    Abstract: Inter-cell mobility may include decoding a first radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration message received from a first cell. The first RRC reconfiguration message may comprise a first portion of configuration information for performing a cell change to a second cell. A cell change message received from the first cell may be decoded. The cell change message may indicate that a cell change to the second cell is to be performed. A cell change acknowledgment may be encoded for transmission to the second cell. A second RRC reconfiguration message received from the second cell may be decoded. The second RRC reconfiguration message may comprise a second portion of configuration information for performing the cell change to the second cell. The second portion of configuration information may comprise a remaining portion of configuration information to perform the cell change to the second cell.

  • Publication number: 20240146424
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses disclosed herein can generate and report a cross link interference (CLI) report. These systems, methods, and apparatuses can receive a CLI report configuration that outlines requirements for the CLI report, where the CLI report configuration is received on Layer 1 signaling, for example, Downlink Control Information (DCI) on a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) or Layer 2 signaling, for example, downlink (DL) Media Access Control-Control Element (MAC-CE) on Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH). The CLI report configuration can identify the one or more CLI measurement resources to be measured and reported; one or more CLI measurements to be performed on the one or more CLI measurement resources; one or more CLI measurement occasions to measure the one or more CLI measurement resources; and one or more resources, to be used to report the CLI report. These systems, methods, and apparatuses can generate the CLI report as outlined in the CLI report configuration.

  • Patent number: 11973591
    Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE) and/or cellular network to perform downlink control information (DCI) mode signaling and control resource set (CORESET) selection. A DCI mode may be signaled based on a predefined rule, media access control (MAC) control element (CE), and/or group based beam reporting. One or more CORESETs may be selected based on configuration of an active bandwidth part (BWP), CORESET identifier, higher layer index, periodicity, type of search space, and/or MAC CE.

  • Patent number: 11969719
    Abstract: A polydentate organic ligand, a preparation method and an application method thereof, a metallo-supramolecular polymer and a preparation method thereof are provided. A structure of triphenylamine is combined with a structure of phenanthroline to serve as the polydentate organic ligand, which takes advantages of a large-volume distortion structure and excellent electroactivity of the triphenylamine. The polydentate organic ligands have good solubility, which provides lower-cost and diversified methods for preparing the metallo-supramolecular polymers. Meanwhile, the phenanthroline has a rigid structure and a conjugated large ? bond in its molecule, which facilitates chelating coordination with metal ions to form a stable compound. Therefore, the polydentate organic ligand enables the metallo-supramolecular polymer to have good transferability, stable electroactivity, and high conversion speed, i.e., fast response speed, excellent electrochromic cycling stability and long service lifetime.

  • Patent number: 11963058
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for performing dual active protocol stack handovers in a frequency range above 24 GHz. A UE may transmit an indication to a base station indicating a dual active protocol stack (DAPS) handover capability of the UE corresponding to a frequency range (FR) above 24 GHz. The UE may receive, from a target cell of the one or more cells, a command to perform a DAPS handover from a source cell to the target cell. While performing the DAPS handover and maintaining a data connection with the source cell, the UE may perform measurements on the target cell followed by a physical random access channel (PRACH) procedure. The UE may then receive a source cell release command from the target cell and release the data connection with the source cell.

  • Patent number: 11963056
    Abstract: Layer 2 handling during a cell change procedure includes decoding an RRC reconfiguration message received from a first cell. The RRC reconfiguration message includes a Layer 1 (L1) configuration corresponding to a second cell. The first cell and the second cell share an SDAP entity, a PDCP entity, an RLC entity, and a MAC entity. The first cell and the second cell have a separate L1 entity. In response to decoding the RRC reconfiguration message, the L1 configuration corresponding to the second cell is stored. A cell change message received from the first cell is decoded. The cell change message indicates that a cell change from the first cell to the second cell is to be performed. The stored L1 configuration corresponding to the second cell is applied for data transmission and reception associated with the second cell. A cell change to the second cell is initiated.

  • Publication number: 20240107610
    Abstract: Techniques discussed herein can facilitate back-off mechanisms for inter-cell mobility. One example aspect is a baseband processor configured to: receive a unified transmission configuration indicator (TCI) from a first serving cell where the unified TCI is associated with a second serving cell; in response to receiving the unified TCI, transmit an ACK message to the first serving cell; communicate with the second serving cell; configure a time window subsequent to transmission of the ACK message; and perform a fallback operation when a dedicated signaling from the second serving cell is not received within the time window.
