    Abstract: Provided is a method for a user equipment (UE). The UE obtains a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) secondary cell (SCell) activation command from a primary cell (PCell) or primary secondary-cell-group cell (PSCell). The PUCCH SCell activation command is used for an PUCCH SCell activation of a target PUCCH SCell for the UE. The UE performs PUCCH SCell activation operations associated with a valid timing advance (TA) and the PUCCH SCell activation command. TA is considered to be a valid TA when the TA meets a preset criterion. The UE generates a channel state information (CSI) report for transmission to at least one of the PCell, PSCell and the target PUCCH SCell. The CSI report indicates that the PUCCH SCell activation is completed.

    Abstract: Transmission of uplink demodulation reference signals (DMRSs) may be dynamically adapted for mobile devices. Downlink control information (DCI) that schedules uplink transmission (s) of the mobile device may include an information element (IE) corresponding to a DMRS to be transmitted by the UE during the uplink transmission (s). The IE enables the mobile device to determine when to transmit DMRSs during the scheduled uplink transmission (s). The mobile device may identify a corresponding DMRS pattern indicated by the IE, with the DMRS pattern defining how many DMRSs to transmit during the uplink transmission (s), how many DMRSs to transmit in a given time interval (TTI) bundle in the uplink transmission (s), how many DMRSs to transmit in a given repetition of the TTI bundle, and/or where the relative position (s) of the DMRSs are within the given repetition and the given TTI bundle. The DMRS patterns may be configured for the mobile device via higher layer signaling or may be hard-coded.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to establish a network connection including a new radio (NR) -NR dual connectivity band combination wherein a primary cell (PCell) of a primary cell group (PCG) and a primary secondary cell (PSCell) of a secondary cell group (SCG) both operate on frequency range 1 (FR1) and wherein at least one cell of either the PCG or the SCG operates on frequency range 2 (FR2). The UE receives a measurement gap timing advance parameter, selects one subframe from multiple serving cell subframes and determines a starting point for a configured per-frequency range (FR) measurement gap based on the measurement gap timing advance parameter and the selected subframe.

    Abstract: In at least one embodiment, a user equipment (UE) may receive a control signal from a base station to update a target pathloss reference signal from an existing pathloss reference signal. In at least one embodiment, the UE may obtain a plurality of samples of the target pathloss reference signal. In at least one embodiment, the UE may determine, based on obtaining the plurality of samples of the target pathloss reference signal, that the UE is unable to update the target pathloss reference signal. In at least one embodiment, the UE may adjust the uplink transmission power of the UE based on the existing pathloss reference signal or to a maximum transmit power based on said determining that the UE is unable to be updated to the target pathloss reference signal.
