Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for to support user equipment (UE) channel state information (CSI) report of time domain channel properties concurrently with Interference Measurement Resources (IMRs) measurements. Embodiments herein consider Uplink Control Information (UCI) multiplexing, UCI omission, Interference Measurement Resource (IMR) configuration, and phase continuity handling. A CSI report configuration (CSI-ReportConfig) may comprise configuration details for both one or more Channel Measurement Resources (CMRs) and one or more Interference Measurement Resources (IMRs). The CMRs may be used to measure time domain channel properties (TDCP) based on a CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) for tracking reference signal (TRS).

Abstract: Systems and methods for utilizing inter-UE coordination regarding reserved resources of a sidelink (SL) resource pool are described herein. A first user equipment (UE) may identify that a first SL resource pool on a first radio access technology (RAT) overlaps with a second SL resource pool on a second RAT, sense for reservation signaling on the second SL resource pool to determine reserved resources on the second SL resource pool, and transmit resource reservation information indicating those reserved resources on SL on the first RAT. A second UE may receive the resource reservation information on the SL, identify, within the first SL resource pool, corresponding resources that overlap with the reserved resources of the second SL resource pool, select, from the first SL resource pool, transmission resources to use for a SL transmission by prioritizing resources other than the corresponding resources; and perform the SL transmission using those transmission resources.

Abstract: A network device (e.g., a user equipment (UE), a new radio NB (gNB), or other network component) can process or generate a physical shared channel based on a number of resource blocks determined by one or more formulas for a transport block size (TBS). In response to determining a result of the one or more formulas based on one or more received parameters a configured action for the physical shared channel can be determined based on the number of resource elements (REs). A radio frequency (RF) interface, is configured to provide, to RF circuitry, data for transmitting a new radio (NR) communication based on the configured action.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) communicates with transmission-reception points (TRPs). When the UE generates uplink control information (UCI), it determines a higher layer index (HLI) value to target the UCI to the appropriate TRP. (Possible values of the HLI are associated with the TRPs.) For UCI on Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH), the HLI value may be determined: based on an HLI value configured for a control resource set (CORESET), or for particular Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resources; based on UCI type or spatial relation data or an index related to PUCCH resources. For UCI on a configured-grant Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), the HLI value may be based on higher layer signals or an indicator relating to channel sounding on spatial relation data. For UCI on MsgA PUSCH in a two-step random access procedure, the HLI value may be based on PUSCH resource unit or PUSCH opportunity.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for muting resource elements used for wireless communications is disclosed. In one aspect, a method can include actions of obtaining, by user equipment (UE), configuration data that indicates a frequency density of muted resource blocks, identifying, by the UE and based on a value of an antenna ports information element in downlink control information (DCI) that schedules a PUSCH transmission, a group of resource elements within the muted resource blocks, determining, by the UE, a muted resource pattern (MRP) within the RBs for the scheduled PUSCH based on the frequency density of the muted resource blocks and the identified group of resource elements, and transmitting, by the UE, an allocation of RBs for PUSCH without transmission on the identified group of resource elements of the determined MRP.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems are disclosed for providing traffic information pertaining to a data traffic group, e.g., for use in 3GPP XR communications. A UE may transmit a traffic flow including data of a certain type (e.g., video, audio, control/pose) generated by an application implemented on the UE, such as an augmented reality application. The traffic flow may include bursts of data traffic groups, wherein each group includes a plurality of data packets containing a functional set of data, such as data for encoding a single video frame. A UE may generate and transmit, to a base station, traffic information regarding the nature, status, performance, and/or constraints of the data traffic group. The base station may use the traffic information to make intelligent scheduling decisions regarding the data traffic group.

Abstract: A smart repeater (SMR) can be configured to amplify and forward data from a base station based on received control information for managing power efficiency of on-off operations. The SMR can configure a power control mechanism based on the control information to adapt one or more bandwidths associated with the SMR based on the control information to save power and forward the communications to the base station or the UE. The control information can include a component carrier (CC) index or a bandwidth part (BWP) identifier (ID), and a set of parameters to configure on-off operations of the one or more bandwidths according to one or more CCs or BWPs.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for enhancing non-PMI based CSI reporting for NC-JT in multi-TRP operations, including addressing channel CRI reporting, CQI reporting, RI reporting, and CSI processing complexity and timeline in NC-JT multi-TRP operations. For example, a UE may receive, from a base station, a configuration for a first set of CSI-RS resources for a first TRP (associated with single TRP operation), a second set of CSI-RS resources for a second TRP (associated with single TRP operation), and a third set of pairs of CSI-RS resources for the first TRP and second TRP (associated with multi-TRP operation). The UE may report, to the base station, a CRI report indicating whether the UE prefers single TRP operation from the first TRP or the second TRP, or multi-TRP operation from the first TRP and the second TRP. The CRI report may be based on the configuration.
