Abstract: A method of UE capability signaling that allows flexible addition and deletion of capabilities relative to an indexed baseline capability is proposed. The network has access to a database of indexed capabilities, with each index value corresponding to a complete UE capability structure. UE reports index value X, but also indicates deltas to the capability indexed by X in portions of the capability structure, where the portions are constructed as a list of supported capabilities. Specifically, UE sends two lists along with the capability index, a “ToAddMod” list and a “ToRemove” list. Each entry in the “ToAddMod” list represents either a new entry to be added to the list, or a set of modified parameters for an existing entry in the list. Each entry in the “ToRemove” list represents an existing entry in the list, which should be considered as deleted.

Abstract: A method for UE capability reduction on a per-component-carrier or a per-frequency-range basis is proposed. In NR networks, UE may be operating in multiple frequency ranges (FRs) and configured with multiple component carriers (CCs) under carrier aggregation. UE can detect an overheating problem due to the RF activity supporting high bandwidth or high MIMO rank on a specific FR or a specific CC. Accordingly, UE indicates to the network a preference for a capability reduction on the specific FR or the specific CC, e.g., a reduced number of carriers, a reduced maximum bandwidth, or a reduced MIMO rank. Such per-FR or per-CC request allows UE to restrict or reduce its capability in a manner that is specific to certain component carriers and/or certain frequency ranges rather than to a global capability reduction that affects all carriers/frequencies.

Abstract: Aspects of this disclosure provide techniques for detecting and recovering from beam-failure events. In some embodiments, motion sensor information generated by motion sensors on a UE is used to detect, predict, and/or recover from a beam failure event that results, or would otherwise result, from movement of the UE. The motion sensor information may be used to adjust a current beam direction used by the UE to transmit or receive a signal, or to determine a recommendation for adjusting a current beam direction of the base station. The motion sensor information may be generated by any sensor that detects a movement of the UE, such as a gyroscope, an accelerometer, a magnetometer, a global positioning system (GPS) sensor, a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) sensor, or any other device that detects a change in position/orientation of the UE.
