Abstract: A UE may perform a location-based conditional handover (CHO) based on a region information and size parameter associated with a serving cell of a non-terrestrial network (NTN). In time-based CHO, the UE may perform CHO in response to expiration of a network-configured wait time. Alternatively, the UE may perform CHO by randomly selecting a wait time from a network configured time range. The selection may be randomized using a network provided seed or using a cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) value. In elevation-based CHO, the UE may perform CHO in response to the elevation angle of a satellite being less than a network configured threshold. When the UE is configured with multiple cells of the NTN, and the CHO criteria for two or more of the cells are satisfied, the UE may select a target cell for CHO based on network indicated prioritization of the cells.

Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments for authentication and authorization in a 5G network between an edge enabler client (EEC) of a UE and an edge configuration server (ECS). The embodiment include performing primary authentication with the 5G network to obtain a K AUSF; generating a K edge and a K edge ID using the K AUSF and a subscription permanent identifier (SUPI); providing the Kedge and the K edge ID to the EEC to cause it to compute a MAC EEC using the K edge and an EEC ID; and sending to the ECS an application registration request, the application registration request including the EEC ID, MACEEC, and K edge ID.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage media for prioritizing data transmissions. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, in accordance with a determination that a first condition to enter a prioritized transmission phase is satisfied, a device prioritizes, based on a first priority rule, data transmissions from a terminal device to a network device and associated with a service. In accordance with a determination that a second condition to leave the prioritized transmission phase is satisfied, the device ceases prioritizing the data transmissions associated with the service.

Abstract: Techniques are described for improving service continuity for Multicast and Broadcast Services (MBS) communications during handover. Techniques are included for supporting lossless handover and data forwarding during handover for peer-to-multiple (PTM) MBS transmission. Lossless handover may be achieved in part by the user equipment (UE) providing to the target base station an indication of the next packet of the MBS session to be received following an RRC reconfiguration message, and an indication of any MBS packets provided by the source base station prior to the RRC reconfiguration message that were not properly received by the UE. Data forwarding may be performed from the source base station to the target base station if the MBS session was not configured on the target base station prior to the handover. Data forwarding may be omitted if the MBS session was configured on the target base station prior to the handover.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for controlling behavior for overriding grants for channel state information (CSI) feedback. A user equipment (UE) may control override of a first grant of a first radio resource by a second grant of a second radio resource. The UE determines that the second radio resource at least partially overlaps with the first radio resource. The UE also determines a physical layer priority of the first grant of the first radio resource and the second grant of the second radio resource. The physical layer priority is based on at least one of the first grant of the first radio resource and the second grant of the second radio resource being configured for transmitting CSI feedback over a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) to a base station. The UE then generates a transmission according to the physical layer priority.

Abstract: Methods for wireless communications by user equipment (UE) are described. Reporting UL Tx DC sub-carrier location information may include decoding a radio resource control (RRC) message received from a base station. The RRC message may comprise a configuration for dynamically reporting uplink (UL) transmit (Tx) direct current (DC) sub-carrier location information. A change associated with at least one previous UL Tx DC sub-carrier location may be determined to have occurred, thereby creating at least one new UL Tx DC sub-carrier location. In response to determining the change, a medium access control (MAC) control element (MAC CE) may be encoded for transmission to the base station. The MAC CE may include information corresponding to the at least one new UL Tx DC sub-carrier location.
