Abstract: A method and apparatus of a device that determines a physical downlink shared channel scheduling resource for a user equipment device and a base station is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the device selects a plurality of component carriers from a pool of available component carriers associated with a wireless link established between the user equipment device and the base station. In addition, the device selects a virtual component carrier from the plurality of component carriers. Furthermore, the device determines a physical downlink shared channel scheduling resource based on at least the virtual component carrier.

Abstract: A wireless user equipment (UE) device may transmit a random access preamble to a base station, using a physical resource on an uplink signal. After failing to receive an initial transmission of a response message from the base station (BS), the UE device may monitor for one or more retransmissions of the response message. Each of the retransmission may include a corresponding transmission number. As an alternative, each of the retransmissions may be at least partially scrambled using a corresponding Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI). As another alternative, a window for monitoring and RNTI calculation may be extended to include the one or more retransmissions. The successive retransmissions may include the same set of UE-specific payloads, or, a decreasing set of payloads over time as UE devices acknowledge successful receipt of their respective payloads.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to multi-path operation. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a measurement report is transmitted to a base station on a first path between the UE and the base station, wherein the measurement report indicates channel quality information on one or more potential paths between the UE and the base station. A path addition command is then received from the base station, wherein the path addition command indicates the UE to add a path from one or more potential paths as a second path. The second path between the UE and the base station is then established based on the path addition command.

Abstract: A first user equipment (UE) is configured to establish a device-to-device (D2D) connection with a second UE, generate internet protocol (IP) packets for uplink (UL) transmission to a network and identifying a quality of service (QoS) flow for the packets, encapsulate each packet with a header comprising a QoS flow-identifier (QFI), transmit a first portion of the encapsulated packets to the network via a first radio link and transmitting a second portion of the encapsulated packets to the second UE via the D2D connection for transmission to the network via a second radio link of the second UE.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to enter a radio resource control (RRC) CONNECTED state on a first network using a first subscriber identification module (SIM) and an RRC INACTIVE or RRC IDLE state on a second network using a second SIM, transmit, to the first network, a request for a scheduling gap (SG) configuration, wherein, during a duration of the SG, the first network avoids scheduling resources for the UE, receive, from the first network, an indication of the SG configuration to be used, during the duration of the SG, tune away from the first network to perform operations on the second network and after the duration of the SG, tune back to the first network, wherein the RRC CONNECTED state is maintained on the first network during the duration of the SG.

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.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to deactivate/activate a point-to-multipoint (PTM) link of a multicast radio bearer (MRB). The UE receives, from a base station of a wireless network, a multicast radio bearer (MRB) configuration, wherein the MRB includes configuration of a split MRB including a point to multipoint (PTM) link and a point to point (PTP) link, deactivates or activates the PTM link based on the MRB configuration, reestablishes a radio link control (RLC) associated with the PTM link and recovers a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP).

Abstract: Provided is a method for a user equipment (UE). The UE generates a first information for the UE for transmission to a network device. The first information is associated with a small data transmission (SDT) procedure in an inactive state of the UE. The UE obtains a first configuration information from the network device. The first configuration information is determined with reference to the first information. The UE determines whether to perform the SDT procedure in the inactive state according to the first configuration information. The UE, in response to determining to perform the SDT procedure in the inactive state, performs the SDT procedure in the inactive state according to the first configuration information.
