Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage media for relaxing evaluation of radio link quality. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a terminal device transmits, to a network device, capability information indicating a capability of the terminal device to relax an evaluation of a radio link quality. The terminal device receives, from the network device, a relaxation configuration for relaxing the evaluation. The terminal device performs the evaluation using a relaxed evaluation period determined based on the relaxation configuration. The relaxed evaluation period is longer than a normal evaluation period without relaxing the evaluation.

Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing mechanisms for reducing interferences for Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) by, for example, one or more of frequency domain interference randomization, code domain interference randomization, or power control. For example, a user equipment (UE) can be configured to determine a comb offset and/or a cyclic shift for each Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) transmission occasion for the UE. The comb offset and/or the cyclic shift change between different SRS transmission occasions of the UE. The UE is further configured to transmit an SRS to the base station using the determined comb offset and/or the determined cyclic shift during the SRS transmission occasion corresponding.

Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure include apparatuses and methods for implementing mechanisms for performing L1-RSRP (Layer 1 Reference Signal Received Power) measurements and/or L1-SINR (Layer 1 Signal-to-Noise and Interference Ratio) measurements on a neighbor cell. For example, some aspects of this disclosure relate to an electronic device. The electronic device includes a transceiver configured to communicate with a serving cell and a neighbor cell and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The processor determines a measurement period for a Layer 1 (L1) measurement on the neighbor cell and receives, using the transceiver, a resource from the neighbor cell during the measurement period. The processor further performs the L1 measurement on the neighbor cell using the received resource from the neighbor cell.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for a user equipment (UE) to receive physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmissions of a transport block (TB) over multiple slots. The UE can receive a configuration for a PDSCH transmission of a TB over multiple slots (TBoMS), such as a first number of slots, through a downlink from a base station. The configuration can include an indication of the first number of slots. The UE can further determine a transport block size (TBS) for the PDSCH transmission, and allocate a second number of slots used by the UE to support the PDSCH transmission. Based on the TBS for the PDSCH transmission satisfying a condition, the processor can be configured to receive the PDSCH transmission of the TB over the second number of slots, and decode the PDSCH transmission received.
