An enhanced provision of pre-provisioned access management containers for wireless services is disclosed. A method can comprise initiating, by a device comprising a processor, a request for a service from a device of networked devices; facilitating, by the device, a search of an evolved packet core network device for permissive service container data based on the request for the service; facilitating, by the device, retrieval of the permissive service container data from the evolved packet core network device, wherein the permissive service container data comprises code associated with the service; and executing, by the device, the code.

A method for detecting a discovery reference signal includes: detecting, by a terminal device, a candidate sequence of a discovery reference signal at a candidate time-frequency resource location of the discovery reference signal to determine an actual time-frequency resource location and an actual sequence of the discovery reference signal, wherein the a candidate sequence includes the actual sequence, and the a candidate time-frequency resource location includes the actual time-frequency resource location; determining, by the terminal device, a value of information, and a mapping relationship between the value and the candidate sequence and/or the candidate time-frequency resource location; and determining, by the terminal device, an actual value from the value according to the actual sequence and/or the actual time-frequency resource location, and the mapping relationship.

Aspects of the present disclosure describe receiving, from at least one cell of a zone of multiple cells, a zone-specific signal related to the zone of multiple cells, wherein the zone of multiple cells operate using synchronized timing, acquiring, based on the zone-specific signal, a timing synchronization with a cell of the zone of multiple cells, and communicating with the cell based on the timing synchronization.

User equipment associated with a legacy network may utilize a bottom-to-top search technique to identify relevant control channel samples. Generating a control channel that is configured for the bottom-to-top search technique may lead to poor performance in a single-carrier waveform, which may be disadvantageous as networks move toward New Radio. In some aspects, described herein, a base station generates a control channel that is configured to minimize gaps in the control channel, and a user equipment performs a top-to-bottom search technique to identify relevant control channel samples. By using the top-to-bottom search technique, degradation of single-carrier waveforms is reduced and efficiency is improved.

Appropriate timing may beneficial in various communication systems. For example, Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) and LTE Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) may benefit from appropriate maximum time determinations for unlicensed secondary cell (SCell) detection, measurements, and activation. A method can include determining a window for a reference signal. The method can also include communicating based on the determined window. For example, the method can include transmitting the reference signal based on the determined window. Alternatively, or in addition, the method can include providing measurement reports based on the reference signal received within the window.

[Object] To make it possible to perform measurement reporting suitable for an environment in which the on/off state of a cell is switched.

[Solution] There is provided a device including: an acquiring unit configured to acquire information indicating that a serving cell is scheduled to be in an off state; and a control unit configured to perform measurement reporting before the serving cell is in the off state.

The invention relates to a method for operating a first access node (100) of a first cellular network in which a first user entity (200) uses a first access technology with at least one first carrier frequency to access a first cell (110) of the first cellular network, the at least one first carrier frequency having a bandwidth. It comprises: determining that a second user entity (400) or a second access node (300) using a second access technology different from the first access technology may operate in the first cell (110) within the bandwidth of the at least one first carrier frequency in order to access a second cellular network, transmitting information to the first user entity (200) by which the first user entity is informed about the fact that the second user entity (400) or second access node may operate in the first cell within the bandwidth of the at least one first carrier frequency using the second access technology.

Aspects of the present disclosure describe receiving, in a portion of bandwidth, a unified synchronization signal from one or more cells in a zone, and receiving, in the portion of bandwidth, a cell-specific signal from at least one cell of the one or more cells in the zone.

Techniques are described herein that allow a user equipment (UE) to configure a subcarrier spacing value while monitoring synchronization signals of neighboring cells. In some wireless communication systems, synchronization signals in given radio frequency spectrum band may be transmitted using one of a plurality of different subcarrier spacings. In some cases, a network entity, such as a base station, may transmit an indication to the UE that indicates the subcarrier spacing used by a cell to transmit a specific set of synchronization signals. In some cases, the UE may select a subcarrier spacing based on a database of subcarrier spacings stored locally by the UE. In some cases, the UE may select the subcarrier spacing based on a predetermined configuration.

The present disclosure provides techniques configuring channel state information (CSI) reporting for certain service types, such as the ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC) service type. In some cases, a UE may obtain information regarding a first set of channel state information (CSI) reporting configurations for a first service type separate from a second set of CSI reporting configurations for a second service type, receive a first downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a CSI report for the first service type on at least one physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), generate at least one CSI report for the first service type based on one of the first set of CSI reporting configurations selected based on a field in the DCI, and transmitting the CSI report for the first service type on the PUSCH.
