Method, apparatus and computer program product for transfer of capability support information in a multi-rat environment
An apparatus for enabling transfer of mobile terminal inter-RAT capabilities in a multi-RAT environment from the perspective of the capability provider may include at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code. The at least one memory and the computer program code may be configured, with the processor, to cause the apparatus to perform at least receiving an indication of a request for mobile terminal inter-RAT capability information relative to a particular RAT, acquiring the inter-RAT capability information in response to receipt of the indication of the request for inter-RAT capability information, and providing the inter-RAT capability information to a target base station.
Mobility Enhancement
A second base station sends, to a first base station, a first message comprising a parameter indicating that the second base station supports layer 1 and/or layer 2 (L1/L2)-based mobility. The second base station receives, from the first base station, a second message indicating to perform the L1/L2-based mobility for a wireless device.
Timing advance validation techniques for L1/L2 inter-cell mobility
A method of wireless communication at a UE is disclosed herein. The method includes transmitting, at a first time instance, an indication of a first measurement on at least one DL-RS associated with a first cell, where the first cell is included in a L1 mobility configured cell set or a L2 mobility configured cell set. The method includes receiving, at a second time instance after the first time instance, an estimated TA associated with the first cell. The method includes performing a second measurement on the at least one DL-RS. The method includes accepting or rejecting the estimated TA for communication with the first cell based on at least one of the first measurement or the second measurement.
LAYER 1 (L1) AND LAYER (L2) SIGNALING OF CELL AND/OR BEAM CHANGES
Disclosed are systems and techniques for performing wireless communication. For example, a method for wireless communications at a network entity (e.g., a base station or portion thereof) may include selecting a special cell (SpCell) from one or more candidate cells for communicating with a user equipment (UE) and transmitting an indication of the SpCell to the UE. In another example, a method for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE) may include receiving an indication of a special cell (SpCell) from a network entity and, in response to the indication, communicating with the SpCell.
