An information reporting method includes: determining that a random access problem occurs; and reporting, to a base station, a bandwidth part (BWP) on which the random access problem occurs. By determining that the random access problem occurs and reporting the BWP on which the random access problem occurs to the base station, the base station may determine the BWP on which the random access problem occurs.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive signaling indicating a configuration for communicating to the UE a random access response of a random access procedure. The configuration may indicate a first quantity of instances of control information associated with the random access response in a set of slots and a portion of the time window configured for the first quantity of instances. The UE may monitor the set of slots for instances of the control information and receive a second quantity of instances of the control information for the UE in a first subset of slots of the set of slots. The second quantity of instances may be less than the first quantity of instances. The UE may combine the instances of the control information from the first subset of slots and decode the random access response based on combining the instances.

Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques to reduce overhead and improve resource management by efficiently selecting RSMA spreading code for periodic traffic in IoE devices. For example, in accordance with one technique, the IoE device, during an initial access to the base station, may notify the base station of the traffic periodicity of the IoE device such that the base station may assign a spreading code from a dedicated pool that is not utilized during the periodic access of the device. Additionally or alternatively, another technique to reduce overhead and improve resource management may include the IoE devices broadcasting the selected RSMA spreading code that the IoE devices intends to use in discovery broadcasts (DBs) along with the IoE device traffic periodicity such that the IoE devices may autonomously manage selection of RSMA spreading code that avoids collisions for the same traffic periodicity.

A user equipment that is provided in a wireless communication system including a base station and the user equipment includes an acquisition unit that acquires information indicating a resource position where a downlink data channel is mapped or a resource position where an uplink data channel is mapped in a radio frame and a timing when an HARQ response to downlink data is transmitted from the user equipment or a timing when an HARQ response to uplink data is received from the base station and a communication unit that transmits an HARQ response to downlink data received by the downlink data channel at a timing when the HARQ response to the downlink data is transmitted and receives an HARQ response to data transmitted by the uplink data channel or retransmission data scheduling information at a timing when the HARQ response to the uplink data is received.

A method for performing wireless communication by an apparatus and an apparatus for supporting same are provided. The method may comprise: receiving information related to a plurality of resource pools from the base station; and monitoring a plurality of sidelink (SL) downlink control information (DCIs) related with each of the plurality of resource pools, wherein the plurality of SL DCIs include information for scheduling SL resources on the plurality of resource pools, wherein, before at least one zero bit is appended to the plurality of SL DCIs, a size of a first SL DCI is a largest among sizes of the plurality of SL DCIs, and wherein, based on that the plurality of resource pools are configured for the device, the sizes of the plurality of SL DCIs to which the at least one zero bit is appended are same as the size of the first SL DCI.

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for a scheduled entity to communicate within a wireless communication network. In one aspect, the scheduled entity receives a plurality of neighbor cell measurement relaxation mechanisms from a scheduling entity. The scheduled entity determines one or more channel condition parameters and selects one or more of the pluralities of neighbor cell measurement relaxation mechanisms, based on the determined one or more channel condition parameters. The scheduled entity executes measurement of one or more neighbor cells using the selected one or more neighbor cell measurement relaxation mechanisms.

Using a modulation and coding scheme for a control channel that is more conservative than needed to fulfill the control function may waste resources. To address this issue, a variable size control channel is provided. An apparatus in such a system may be configured to determine an aggregation level of a plurality of aggregation levels associated with a control channel. Each aggregation level of the plurality of aggregation levels is associated with a number of time-frequency resources dedicated for the control channel and a particular modulation and coding scheme used for modulating and coding control information in the control channel. The apparatus is configured to receive control information in the time-frequency resources associated with the aggregation level and decode the control information received in the time-frequency resources associated with the determined aggregation level. The decoding is based on the particular modulation and coding scheme associated with the determined aggregation level.

An information transmission method and apparatus are provided. In the method, an entity part of an IAB donor transmits information to a DU, wherein the information is used for instructing the DU to perform link status switching. A storage medium and an electronic apparatus are also provided.

A method for bandwidth part (BWP) operating of a serving cell, adapted to a user equipment (UE) in a first BWP, is provided. The method includes: receiving a signaling; and determining whether to switch to a second BWP from the first BWP according to the signaling.

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5.sup.th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4.sup.th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services.
