Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may be configured to receive one or more slot timing values for transmission of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgment (ACK) information bits using first time and frequency resources. The WTRU may be configured to receive configuration information indicating second time and frequency resources for transmission of HARQ-ACK. The configuration information may indicate a set of sequences. The WTRU may be configured to transmit based on HARQ-ACK feedback to be reported for the downlink signals one or more of a first sequence of the set of sequences using the second time and frequency resources, a second sequence of the set of sequences using the second time and frequency resources, or at least one indication of an acknowledgment and at least one indication of a negative acknowledgment using the first time and frequency resources.

Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may include a transceiver and a processor. The WTRU may be configured to receive one or more downlink signals. The WTRU may be configured to receive configuration information indicating time and frequency resources for transmission of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgement (ACK). The configuration information may indicate a first sequence. The WTRU may be configured to determine a set of sequences to be used in response to the receipt of the one or more downlink signals. The set of sequences may be determined based on the indicated first sequence. The WTRU may be configured to send a second sequence from the set of sequences in the time and frequency resources to indicate HARQ-ACK. The second sequence may be selected based on a number of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring occasions associated with the indicated HARQ-ACK.

Abstract: A wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) may receive physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) configuration information, SBFD configuration information, and DCI comprising a first PRI. The WTRU may determine that a PUCCH transmission is to be sent. The WTRU may determine, based on a first rule of interpreting the first PRI and the PUCCH configuration information, that a first PUCCH resource indicated by the first PRI is included in at least one frequency resource that is at least partially included in at least one subband for uplink (UL) transmission and one subband for downlink reception indicated by the SBFD configuration information. The WTRU may determine a second PUCCH resource, which may be determined based on a second rule for interpreting the first PRI and the PUCCH configuration information. The second PUCCH resource may be within subbands for UL transmission. The WTRU may transmit the PUCCH transmission using the second frequency resource.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for joint channel state information (CSI) measurement are described herein. A method may include receiving channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs) from first and second transmit/receive points (TRPs), determining CSI, and selecting one of the TRPs as a primary TRP and a remaining one of the first TRP or the second TRP as a secondary TRP. The method may include reporting information indicating a first CSI for the primary TRP and receiving second CSI-RSs from the TRPs. The method may include determining a second CSI and a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) for the primary TRP, and determining channel coding information for the primary TRP. The method may include determining a second CSI for the secondary TRP, determining, based on channel coding information and the second CSI for the secondary TRP and a PMI for the secondary TRP, and reporting information indicating the PMI for the second TRP.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for seamless switching between frequency ranges are provided herein. A method may include: receiving information identifying channel state information (CSI) reference signal (CSI-RS) resources in a first frequency range (FR), where each of the CSI-RS resources in the first FR is associated with CSI-RS resources in a second FR and the second FR is a lower FR than the first FR; and measuring a signal quality of at least one of the CSI-RS resources in the first FR. The method may further include selecting a subset of the CSI-RS resources in the first FR or the second FR, wherein, on a condition that the measured signal quality meets or exceeds a threshold, the selected subset is in the first FR, and the selection is based on the measured signal quality. The method may further include reporting the measured signal quality.
