Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) reliability enhancement. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a processor of a UE receives, from a BS associated with a first TRP and a second TRP, a first message for configuring a PUCCH resource to be used by the UE to perform a PUCCH transmission with the BS. In this case, the first message indicates a first configuration corresponding to the first TRP and the first configuration comprises at least one power control parameter associated with the first TRP. The message further indicates a second configuration corresponding to the second TRP and the second configuration comprises at least one power control parameter associated with the second TRP. The processor performs the PUCCH transmission with the BS via the first and second TRPs based on the first message. In this way, the reliability and robustness of the PUCCH transmission for multiple TRP is enhanced.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to simultaneously connect to a primary cell (PCell) serving a primary component carrier (PCC), a primary secondary cell (PSCell) serving a primary secondary component carrier (PSCC) and at least one secondary cell (SCell) serving a secondary component carrier (SCC), wherein the PSCell is in a deactivated state. The UE receives a radio resource management (RRM) measurement configuration comprising a PCC measurement object (MO) configuration, a PSCC MO configuration, and an SCC MO configuration, determines a PCC MO carrier specific scaling factor (CSSF), a PSCC MO CSSF, and an SCC MO CSSF and applies each respective CSSF to a measurement period corresponding to each of the PCC MO, the PSCC MO, and the SCC MO.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to report beam information for a secondary cell. The UE receives a signal from a network indicating that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) secondary cell (SCell) activation procedure has been initiated, collects beam information corresponding to a target PUCCH SCell, reports the beam information to the network, determines that the target PUCCH SCell has been activated as a PUCCH SCell and transmits uplink control information (UCI) over a PUCCH to the PUCCH SCell, wherein the UE is also configured with a different PUCCH corresponding to a primary cell (PCell).
