Abstract: An apparatus includes at least one processor; and at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to: determine whether the apparatus is expected to perform communication on a first carrier within a time interval, and communication on a second carrier within the time interval; determine whether there is a conflict between at least one symbol of the first carrier and at least one symbol of the second carrier within the time interval; determine at least one scheme to use for performing communication with at least one user equipment, when there is the conflict between the at least one symbol of the first carrier and the at least one symbol of the second carrier within the time interval; and perform the communication with the at least one user equipment using the at least one scheme.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to an apparatus comprising: means for determining (1100), by a sidelink manager, a first resource allocation used by a first module for performing sidelink communications via a first radio access technology; means for determining (1102), by the sidelink manager, a second resource allocation used by a second module for performing sidelink communications via a second radio access technology; means for determining (1104), by the sidelink manager, a resource allocation conflict based on the first resource allocation and the second resource allocation; means for converting (1106), by the sidelink manager, the first resource allocation into a converted first resource allocation compatible with the second radio access technology or the second resource allocation into a converted second resource allocation compatible with the first radio access technology; and means for sending (1108), by the sidelink manager, the converted first resource allocation to the second module or the converted second

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for handling NR slot aggregation in radio SL co-channel coexistence. A method may include determining that one or more slots of a first radio access technology overlaps a subframe of a second radio access technology. The method may also include detecting whether the second radio access technology is using the subframe of the second radio access technology. The method may further include determining by an outcome of at least one evaluated condition whether to transmit in the one or more overlapping slots or refrain to transmit in the one or more overlapping slots. The method may further include performing transmission with a same transmit power in all the slots that overlap the subframe of the second radio access technology.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for transitioning states or modes on a user equipment, the method having the steps of receiving, at a network element, a transition indication; checking a radio resource profile for the user equipment; and making a transitioning decision at the network element based on the received transition indication and the radio resource profile.

Abstract: A method and network element to control use of a transition indication message by a user equipment, the method including an inhibit transition indication in a configuration message; and sending the configuration message with the inhibit transition indication to the user equipment. Also, a method and user equipment for sending a transition indication, the method setting a timer according to an inhibit transition indication received from a network element; detecting that a data transfer is complete; and sending the transition indication upon detecting that the timer is not running.
