  • NEW RADIO (NR) HANDOVER, RADIO LINK MONITORING (RLM), BEAM FAILURE DETECTION (BFD), AND CANDIDATE BEAM DETECTION (CBD) WITH CLEAR CHANNEL ASSESSMENT (CCA)
    Publication number: 20230217339
    Abstract: Some aspects relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing mechanisms for performing handover, radio link monitoring (RLM), beam failure detection (BFD), and candidate beam detection (CBD) within the unlicensed spectrum when a listen-before-talk (LBT) failure occurs and/or when a user equipment (UE) performs receiving (RX) beam sweeping. For example, a UE is configured to receive a handover command to connect to a target cell. The UE is further configured to determine a search time and an interruption time uncertainty during a handover procedure initiated by the handover command and in response to a LBT failure or the UE performing a beam sweeping operation. The UE can further determine a handover delay based on the search time and the interruption time uncertainty. In response to a time period for performing the handover procedure exceeding the handover delay, the UE can cease the handover procedure.

    Publication number: 20230199678
    Abstract: A method performed by a user equipment (UE) for enhanced radio resource management (RRM) includes communicating, to an access node, a capability of the UE to support bandwidth part (BWP) without restriction. The UE determines that a synchronization signal block (SSB) is outside a downlink (DL) BWP configured for the UE. Based on determining that the SSB is outside the DL BWP configured for the UE, at least one radio frequency (RF) communication parameter of the UE is adjusted to adjust an operating bandwidth of the UE, and the SSB is received using the adjusted operating bandwidth.

  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MEASUREMENT SOLUTIONS FOR INTER-RAT MO FROM LTE MN IN EN-DC
    Publication number: 20230180071
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure enable a user equipment (UE) to performing inter-Radio Access Technology (RAT) measurements. The UE determines whether one or more inter-RAT measurement object (MO) is configured with or without a measurement gap (MG). When the one or more inter-RAT MO is on an NR serving component carrier (CC) with the MG, the UE performs an inter-RAT measurement on the NR serving CC based on whether the MG is fully overlapped or partially overlapped with synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) of a target MO of the one or more inter-RAT MO. When the one or more inter-RAT MO is on the NR serving CC without the MG, the UE performs the inter-RAT measurement on the NR serving CC based on whether a target SSB of the target MO is within or outside an active bandwidth part (BWP) of the NR serving CC.

  • PHYSICAL UPLINK CONTROL CHANNEL SECONDARY CELL ACTIVATION IN NEW RADIO
    Publication number: 20230180285
    Abstract: Provided is a method for a user equipment (UE). The UE obtains a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) secondary cell (SCell) activation command from a primary cell (PCell) or primary secondary-cell-group cell (PSCell). The PUCCH SCell activation command is used for an PUCCH SCell activation of a target PUCCH SCell for the UE. The UE performs PUCCH SCell activation operations associated with a valid timing advance (TA) and the PUCCH SCell activation command. TA is considered to be a valid TA when the TA meets a preset criterion. The UE generates a channel state information (CSI) report for transmission to at least one of the PCell, PSCell and the target PUCCH SCell. The CSI report indicates that the PUCCH SCell activation is completed.
