Abstract: Configuring non-zero-power channel state information reference signal (NZP-CSI-RS) may include encoding a channel state information (CSI) configuration communication for transmission to a user equipment (UE) that is in connected mode with both a first transmission and reception point (TRP) associated with a serving cell and a second TRP associated with a neighbor cell. The NZP-CSI-RS configuration communication may establish a plurality of parameters for NZP-CSI-RS in the serving cell and the neighbor cell.

Abstract: Indicating a transmission gap at a user equipment (UE) in a non-terrestrial network (NTN) may include decoding a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) aggregation factor associated with a distance to a serving satellite in the NTN. A transmission gap information communication may be decoded. The transmission gap information communication may include at least information associated with a PUSCH transmission gap and a maximum number of repetitions before the PUSCH transmission gap. Uplink (UL) PUSCH transmissions equal to the maximum number of repetitions may be encoded before occurrence of PUSCH transmission gap.

Abstract: Devices and methods of using xSS are generally disclosed. A UE receives an xPSS with (Nrep) symbols each with a subcarrier spacing of K×a PSS subcarrier spacing and a duration of a PSS symbol/K. PSD subcarriers surround the xPSS and the ZC sequence is punctured to avoid transmission on a DC subcarrier. Guard subcarriers separate the xPSS and PSD when the ZC sequence is less than the occupied BW of the xPSS and at least one element in the ZC sequence is punctured for xPSS symbol generation otherwise. One or more xSSSs and xS-SCHs may follow the xPSS. The xSS may be omnidirectional, each having a same xPSS and different xSSS or xS-SCH or a different xPSS and same xSSS or xS-SCH or beamformed, each having different xPSSs and xSSSs or xS-SCHs or a same xPSS and different xSSS or xS-SCH.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatus for determining time-domain PRACH resources in wireless communication. A New Radio (NR) Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) configuration comprising an indication of a time-domain PRACH resource type to determine when the UE is allowed to transmit a PRACH preamble and a type of preamble format may be received. Additionally, a PRACH resource based on the received PRACH configuration to transmit the PRACH preamble, wherein the PRACH resource includes RACH resource occasions (ROs) with gaps in between may be determined. Thereafter, a PRACH procedure may be initiated by transmitting the PRACH preamble on a RO based on the determined PRACH resource to a base station (BS).

Abstract: Aspects herein relate to wireless devices, circuits, and methods for indicating, by a wireless device, to a wireless station, an ability to support semi-persistent (SP) measurement gap (MG) configuration; receiving, from the wireless station, a SP MG configuration; receiving, from the wireless station, a message to activate the SP MG configuration; performing, in response to receiving the message to activate the SP MG configuration, a target carrier frequency measurement, wherein the target carrier frequency measurement is performed in accordance with the activated SP MG configuration; receiving from the wireless station, a message to deactivate the SP MG configuration; and discontinuing, in response to receiving the message to deactivate the SP MG configuration, the performance of the target carrier frequency measurement. In other aspects, the wireless device may indicate, to the wireless station, an ability to support aperiodic (AP) MG configuration, which does not require explicit deactivation by the wireless station.

Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to perform SRS transmission when a UE supports SRS Tx antenna port switching. In an example, a determination is made about whether a scheduled SRS transmission impacts a scheduled DL reception given the SRS Tx antenna port switching. If so, the SRS transmission and/or the DL reception are changed. In a further example, the UE can supports an SRS TA capability in conjunction with the SRS Tx antenna port switching capability. In this example, SRS TA can be applied to a scheduled SRS transmission.

Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods for partial sensing for resource selection, reevaluation, and preemption. In some embodiments: a UE receives configuration information for a resource pool; determines a type of traffic to be transmitted by the UE, the type to include aperiodic traffic or periodic traffic; determines, based on the configuration information and traffic type, first and second values to define a window for contiguous partial sensing; and performs contiguous partial sensing within the window.
