Disclosed is a method for a terminal to receive a reference signal in a wireless communication system. In particular, the method comprises: receiving first information related to a reference signal configuration from a serving cell; receiving the reference signal from a neighbor cell on the basis of the first information; and obtaining second information on the timing of the reference signal on the basis of the sequence of the reference signal, wherein the reference signal is of a different type from a SS/PBCH block.

[Object] To make it possible to select a cell that is more preferable for a terminal device in an environment in which beamforming is performed. [Solution] There is provided a device including: an acquiring unit configured to acquire received quality information indicating received quality of a reference signal in a terminal device; and a control unit configured to perform cell selection for the terminal device based on the received quality information. When a predetermined condition related to use of weight sets for beamforming by a base station is satisfied, the control unit does not perform the selection based on the received quality information.

A method of UE includes receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message for configuring bandwidth parts (BWPs) of a serving cell, receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) indicating activation of a first BWP, performing a BWP switching to the first BWP indicated by the PDCCH, and starting a first downlink BWP timer associated with the first BWP. A UE includes a transceiver, and at least one controller coupled with the transceiver, the at least one controller configured to receive an RRC message for configuring BWPs of a serving cell, receive a PDCCH indicating activation of a first BWP, perform a BWP switching to the first BWP indicated by the PDCCH, and start a first downlink BWP timer associated with the first BWP.

Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a UE may partially disable transmissions on a transmission port based on a temperature condition (e.g., chipset temperature or skin temperature exceeding threshold). In a further aspect, the UE may enable the partially disabled transmissions on the transmission port in response to cessation of the temperature condition. In a further aspect, the UE may transmit a capability indication to a base station that indicates that the UE is capable of supporting a transition from a multi-layer (rank-2) communication mode to a single-layer (rank-1) communication mode.
