Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may operate on a dormant bandwidth part (BWP) and a non-dormant BWP of a carrier. The UE identifies a dormant bandwidth part (BWP) and a non-dormant BWP of a carrier corresponding to a primary secondary cell (PSCell) of a secondary cell group (SCG) for dual connectivity (DC), determines that the dormant BWP is configured in an active state and performing one or more actions corresponding to the dormant BWP.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to receive a quality of experience (QoE) measurement configuration for performing QoE measurements, wherein the QoE measurement configuration includes at least one QoE measurement session, receive a QoE measurement deactivation command including an indication as to whether the QoE measurements are deactivated based on a geographical area scope restriction and based on the indication, determine whether to promptly deactivate the QoE measurements or to deactivate the QoE measurements when an active measurement session has ended.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) device may perform random access to a base station in the context where propagation delay between the base station and the UE device is large. The UE device randomly selects a random access preamble from an available set of preambles. The UE device selects a time slot for transmission of the random access preamble based on a configured correspondence between allowable time slots and subsets of the available set. The UE device transmits the random access preamble to a base station in the selected time slot, with timing advance to compensate for a common delay. Thus, the base station, knowing the configured correspondence, is able to determine the time slot in which the random access preamble was transmitted. The UE device receives a random access response that has been addressed with a Random Access Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RA-RNTI).

Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components, including apparatus, systems, and methods for selecting timer values and starting or stopping timers related to configured grant or discontinuous reception.

Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to configure a UE for dual connectivity. In an example, a network node requests the UE to indicate the capability it supports for the dual connectivity. This request can implicitly or explicitly indicate that the UE should report carrier grouping information. In response, this information is sent by the UE, and the network node can configure an MCG and an SCG for the UE based on the reported carrier grouping information.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for providing broadcast and multicast services to wireless devices while in Idle and Inactive modes a wireless communication system. A wireless device may establish a wireless link with a cellular base station of a cellular network.

The wireless device may receive the broadcast or multicast service in one or more of the inactive mode or the idle mode based at least in part on the information indicating whether provision of the broadcast or multicast service in one or more of the inactive mode or the idle mode is supported by the cellular network.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to deactivate/activate a point-to-multipoint (PTM) link of a multicast radio bearer (MRB).

Abstract: A UE may coordinate the use of a low Power Wake-Up Radio (LR) and a main radio (MR) to determine a Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement. The UE may enter a deep sleep state by turning off a MR and turning on a LR. The UE may measure the serving cell quality when in the deep sleep state, and enter a normal state by turning on the MR, when the serving cell quality is less than a threshold. The UE may perform a neighbor cell measurement, when in the normal state when a serving cell measurement meets a criteria.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may camp on a base station of a network. The UE receives, from the base station of a wireless network, a broadcast including access restrictions, wherein the access restrictions include one or more predetermined criteria that must be satisfied to camp on the base station. The UE then determines whether the UE satisfies the one or more predetermined criteria.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for enhancement of MBMS transmission reliability. A UE may receive PDCP PDUs via a PTM link from a network. The UE may determine to provide feedback regarding receipt of the PDCP PDUs, e.g., based, at least in part, on an occurrence of a triggering event. The triggering event may be configured by the network and may include the UE receiving a request for feedback from the network, the UE determining that at least one PDCP PDU is missing, the UE determining that a number of missing PDCP PDUs exceeds a threshold, and/or the UE determining that a PDCP reordering window is changing based on expiration of a PDCP reordering timer. The UE may transmit feedback associated with receipt of the PDCP PDUs. The feedback may include an indication of missing PDCP PDUs, e.g., such as an indication of a sequence number associated with missing PDCP PDUs.

Abstract: Provided is a method for a user equipment (UE). The method includes determining a mobility state of the UE and performing reference signal measurement in a relaxation mode within at least one cell. The mobility state indicates mobility capability of the UE, and, the at least one cell is determined based on the mobility state.

Abstract: A base station may restrict access by a user equipment (UE). The base station broadcasts access restrictions to one or more UE within a cell coverage area of the base station, wherein the access restrictions include one or more predetermined criteria that must be satisfied for a UE to be allowed to camp on the base station. The base station performs a random access channel (RACH) procedure to allow the UE to camp on the base station when the UE satisfies the one or more predetermined criteria.

Abstract: Techniques for flexible hybrid automatic repeat request selection by a user equipment are provided. An example method includes a user equipment (UE) processing a plurality of physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) opportunities associated with a configured grant (CG) cycle. The UE can apply a first logical channel prioritization (LCP) setting when processing a first PUSCH opportunity of the plurality of PUSCH opportunities. The UE can evaluate whether a condition for switching from the first LCP to a second LCP of the plurality of PUSCH opportunities has been met. The UE can, based on the evaluation, apply a second LCP setting when processing the second PUSCH opportunity.

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.

Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods for L2 resets. For example, a UE can be connected to a base station DU via a first cell and can be configured with information about a second cell. This information can indicate whether an LTM association exists between the first cell and the second cell (e.g., whether these two cells are provided by the same base station DU or not). Upon a command to establish a connection with the second cell (e.g., a MAC CE handover command), the UE can determine whether an L2 reset is to be performed or not based on the configuration information (e.g., the L2 reset can be foregone when the two cells are provided by the same base station DU; otherwise, the L2 reset can be performed).

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for using integrated access and backhaul (IAB) nodes configured to provide multi-access edge computing (MEC) functionality. An IAB node may include a MEC functionality that includes an instance of an application configured for MEC. A UE using the application connects to the network through an access link with the IAB node and establishes a PDU session for traffic of the application with a core network (CN). The CN may determine that the traffic corresponds to the application, and that an instance of the application is present on the IAB node. Accordingly, the CN may instruct the IAB donor to instantiate a remote packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer and, in some cases, a remote service data application (SDAP) layer that are configured to route the traffic from the UE for the application to the instance of the application on the IAB node.

At a later time, the wireless device may set the second base station in an activated state and communicate with the first base station and the second base station.
