Abstract: According to some embodiments, a method performed by a wireless device operating in a non-terrestrial network (NTN) comprises obtaining a first timing advance (TA) value for uplink transmission in the NTN. The first TA value comprises a reference TA value. The method further comprises obtaining a trigger condition for reporting a TA used by the wireless device for uplink transmission in the NTN and autonomously obtaining an adjusted TA value for uplink transmission. The adjusted TA is obtained via autonomous adjustment to the reference TA value based on a propagation delay between the wireless device and a serving satellite of the NTN. The method further comprises, upon determining the trigger condition for reporting the TA is satisfied, reporting the adjusted TA to a network node.

Abstract: Example methods and apparatuses provide for the advantageous use of “first” and “second” indicators for cell state control with respect to a wireless communication device. When sent singularly, the first indicator indicates activated/deactivated state transitions according to corresponding sequential state transition logic implemented in the device, and the second indicator indicates activated/dormant state transitions according to corresponding sequential state transition logic implemented in the device. When sent jointly for a given serving cell of the device, the first and second indicators operate as a combinational pair that indicates what the operational state of the cell shall be for the device, irrespective of the current cell state.

Abstract: According to certain embodiments, a method for synchronous control of timing configurations includes operating a wireless device according to a first timing configuration associated with a first delay duration for transmitting feedback to a network node. A second timing configuration associated with a second delay duration for transmitting feedback to the network node is received from the network node. The second delay duration is different from the first delay duration. In response to a first downlink transmission from the network node, a first feedback is scheduled for transmission at a transmission time determined based on the second delay duration associated with the second timing configuration.
