  • Publication number: 20260247400
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are described for dynamically determining codewords that are enabled for transmitting a transport block. A WTRU receives DCI associated with an UL grant for an UL transmission. The DCI may comprise one or more indicators associated with a first codeword and a second codeword. The one or more indicators may comprise at least one of a TPMI or an antenna-group indicator. The WTRU may determine, if the one or more indicators associated with the first codeword and the second codeword comprises a TPMI associated with the second codeword, that the first codeword is enabled for transmission and the second codeword is disabled for transmission. The WTRU transmits a transport block associated with the enabled one or more of the first codeword and the second codeword. If the first codeword is enabled, the WTRU transmits the transport block associated with the first codeword.

  • Patent number: 12713366
    Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may receive indication information indicating an uplink (UL) configuration and one or more triggering conditions for transmission of UL signals. Based on reception of a deactivation command or fulfillment of a condition for WTRU-triggered deactivation of a secondary cell group (SCG), the WTRU may deactivate the SCG. Based on the UL configuration and the fulfillment of the one or more triggering conditions, the WTRU may transmit the UL signals via the SCG. The WTRU may receive, via a master cell group (MCG), an in-synch or out-of-synch indication for the SCG. Based on the reception of the out-of-synch indication including a timing advance (TA) delta value, the WTRU may update a UL TA towards the SCG based on the TA delta value. Using the updated UL TA towards the SCG, the WTRU may transmit one or more subsequent UL signals via the SCG.

  • Publication number: 20260239223
    Abstract: A method and a WTRU for uplink polarization based operation are disclosed. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) receives a first uplink (UL) grant and a second UL grant indicating a first and second polarization type, respectively, to be used for a first and second UL transmission, respectively. The WTRU determines a maximum power associated with each of the first and second polarization type. The WTRU determines that a sum of the maximum power associated with the first and second polarization type exceeds a threshold. The WTRU scales one or more of the maximum power associated with the first or second polarization type based on the sum exceeding the threshold. The WTRU sends the first and second UL transmission. A sum of a first and second power associated with the first and second UL transmission does not exceed the threshold.

  • Publication number: 20260239055
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are configured to polarization interference measurement and reporting using polarized reference signals. A Wireless Transmit/Receive Unit (WTRU) may receive configuration information for Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS) measurements, including two polarization indices related to different polarization types. Upon receiving a trigger, for example, through downlink control information (DCI), the WTRU may perform and report CSI-RS measurements based on the polarization types. The WTRU may determine the polarization-based CSI-RS measurement using the configuration and polarization type indicated in the reporting information, and send such data to a network. The measurements may be based on the polarization indices in the reporting information.

  • Publication number: 20260231220
    Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may be configured to perform early channel state information (CSI) measurement and/or reporting. Early CSI measurement and/or reporting may differ from traditional CSI measurement and/or reporting in that early CSI measurement/reporting may be performed in association with a two or four step random access channel (RACH) procedure. For example, the WTRU may receive a synchronization signal block (SSB). The WTRU may send a first RACH message based on the SSB. The WTRU may receive a random access response (RAR). The RAR may indicate a resource for early CSI measurement. The WTRU may perform measurement of the early CSI resource and send a report. The report may be sent as part of the random access procedure, for example, in a RACH msg3.

  • Patent number: 12683733
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed herein associated with transmission of demodulation reference signals (DMRS) in wireless systems. DMRS symbols may be placed in a slot for channel estimation operations. For example, channel estimation performance may be enhanced based on using an increased number of DMRS symbols. Channel estimation enhancements may be performed by transmitting DMRS symbols in an extended slot, for example, to avoid data degradation (e.g., which may result from replacing data transmission symbols with DMRS symbols). An extended slot may be a slot that includes symbols spanning across multiple slots (e.g., two slots, consecutive slots), for example, such as a slot n and a slot n+1.

  • Publication number: 20260180643
    Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may receive a first channel state information (CSI) request and a second CSI request. The WTRU may determine a first active window for the first CSI request and a second active window for the second CSI request. The WTRU may determine, based on a first association rule, a first number of computational units (CUs) needed to process the first CSI request in the first active window and a second number of CUs needed to process the second CSI request in the second active window. The WTRU may determine that the second CSI request is an invalid CSI request based on the first number of CUs, the second number of CUs, and a number of CUs available to the WTRU. The WTRU may determine, based on a second association rule, a number of additional CUs needed to process the second CSI request in an active sub-window.
