A device implementing unified coordination of wireless communications over multiple physical layers may include a MAC module communicatively coupled to first and second physical layer modules that are each configured to communicate with another device over first and second physical wireless channels, respectively. The MAC module may be configured to provide data to the first physical layer module for transmission to the another device over the first physical wireless channel, where the first physical wireless channel is associated with a first link parameter. The MAC module may be further configured to facilitate initializing the second physical wireless channel based at least in part on the first link parameter of the first physical wireless channel, and after initialization of the second physical wireless channel, provide second data to the second physical layer module for transmission to the another device over the second physical wireless channel.

Apparatus and methods are provided for virtual carrier operation in wireless systems with large carrier bandwidth. In one novel aspect, virtual carrier (VC) with a block of physically contiguous radio resources within a component carrier is configured. In one embodiment, the UE configures a downlink (DL) common virtual carrier (CVC) and an uplink (UL) CVC, which carry control information for the UE, and one or more DL/UL dedicated VCs (DVCs), which carry data services. In one embodiment, the UE obtains the CVC configuration information including the channel bandwidth and the physical location through system information. In another embodiment, the UE obtains DVC configuration through an RRC-layer signaling. In another novel aspect, the UE obtains a VC configuration switch command through either a MAC signal or a PHY signal, and subsequently reconfigures one or more configured VCs based on the received switch command.

Provided are methods for determining a transmission parameter of an uplink signal, a terminal and a network device. The method includes that: a terminal determines a first SRS resource set receives, from a network device, first indication information which is for instructing the terminal to transmit an aperiodic SRS, determines a target SRS resource set according to the first indication information and the first SRS resource set, sends the aperiodic SRS to the network device on an SRS resource in the target SRS resource set, receives, from the network device, second indication information which is for indicating a target SRS resource in the target SRS resource set; and the terminal determines a transmission parameter used to transmit an uplink signal according to the target SRS resource.

A method performed by a user equipment, UE, for handling communication in a wireless communication network, providing dual connectivity, DC, communication through a master node using a master cell group, MCG, over a first radio interface between the UE and the master node and through a secondary node using a secondary cell group, SCG, over a second radio interface between the UE and the secondary node. The UE detects a failure associated with the SCG and suspends actions associated with the SCG. The UE further performs a reconfiguration of the SCG in case the UE has received a MCG radio resource control, RRC, message comprising SCG configuration, wherein performing the reconfiguration of SCG comprises applying the reconfiguration; and resuming or not resuming the actions associated with the suspended SCG.
