Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to cell recovery techniques. One example method generally includes receiving, at a user-equipment (UE), at least one pilot signal via a secondary cell, receive, via a primary cell, a first message triggering reporting of at least one preferred beam for communication via the secondary cell, determining the preferred beam based on the at least one pilot signal, transmitting, via the primary cell, a report indicating the at least one preferred beam, and communicating data via the secondary cell and via the preferred beam.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from an entity of a non-terrestrial network (NTN), a system information block (SIB) that indicates information relating to one or more NTN SIBs that are to include at least one of ephemeris information or feeder link timing advance information. The UE may receive, from the entity of the NTN, the one or more NTN SIBs based at least in part on the information. Numerous other aspects are described.

A method, performed by a first communication device, for transmitting a wireless local area network (WLAN) packet to a WLAN network interface device of a second communication device is described. The second communication device includes a separate wakeup radio (WUR) coupled to the WLAN network interface device. The WLAN packet is generated at the first communication device to include a WUR identifier associated with a neighbor communication device. The WUR identifier is usable by the WUR of the second communication device to identify WUR packets transmitted by the neighbor communication device. The neighbor communication device is different from the first communication device. The WLAN packet is transmitted by the first communication device to the WLAN network interface device of the second communication device.

A method and system to help prevent legacy devices that do not support a service feature such as uplink-downlink subcarrier shifting from connecting with an access node on a carrier where the service feature should be applied. An example method involves use of Network Signaling (NS) values that are used for spectral emission control. Per the disclosure, the access node could broadcast an NS value that legacy device are not configured to understand but that newer devices are configured to understand as relating to both spectral emission limitation and also the service feature at issue. Responsive to the broadcast of that NS value, the legacy devices will therefore not connect with the access node, while the newer devices may connect with the access node and apply the service feature.

Provided are wireless communication methods and corresponding base stations and user terminals. The wireless communication method performed by the base station includes generating indication information indicating a support capability of the base station for user terminals of different heights and/or types; and transmitting the indication information to user terminals within a cell managed by the base station. The wireless communication method performed by the user terminal includes receiving indication information indicating a support capability of a base station for user terminals of different heights and/or types; and selecting a portion of information that matches its own height and/or type from the indication information.

A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a device to perform sidelink transmission. The method includes the device being in RRC (Radio Resource Control)-connected mode in Uu link. The method also includes the device being configured to use at least DL (Downlink) pathloss for sidelink power control. The method further includes the device deriving a first DL pathloss value for determining an uplink transmit power of one specific kind of uplink transmission. In addition, the method includes the device determining or deriving a sidelink transmit power based on the first DL pathloss value. Furthermore, the method includes the device performing a sidelink transmission to other device(s) with the sidelink transmit power.

Embodiments of the present invention provide apparatus and methods for announcing a BSS parameter updates for a wireless link that can be received by a MLD even when the MLD is not listening for parameter updates on that specific link by employing a different wireless link to broadcast, receive, and/or signal the BSS parameter update. An MLD can update the BSS parameters of the wireless link and use the wireless link according to the updated BSS parameters (e.g., after performing a channel switch). According to some embodiments, an STA within an AP MLD transmits an information elements (IE) including BSS parameter updates associated with a different STA (operating on a different wireless link) within the AP MLD.

Embodiments of a non-access point (non-AP) EHT station (EHT STA) configured to operate as part of an STA multi-link logical entity (STA MLLE) comprising the EHT STA and one or more other non-AP EHT STAs are generally described herein. The STA MLLE is configured to be associated with an access point (AP) MLLE (AP MLLE) comprising a plurality of EHT APs. The EHT STA is configured to decode a beacon frame received from the EHT APs of the AP MLLE including a multi-link beacon check element to indicate which of the one or more multiple links has a critical update to its link parameters. When the multi-link beacon check element indicates an update to link parameters for the link between the EHT STA and its associated EHT AP, the EHT STA is to configured obtain the updated link parameters either waking-up at a target beacon transmission time (TBTT) or send a probe request.

A system for converging fifth generation (5G) communication systems for supporting higher data rates beyond fourth generation (4G) systems with a technology for Internet of things (IoT) is provided. The communication method and system 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. A system is provided for determining system information validity by acquiring and storing a first system information block and other system information, including information on a public land mobile network (PLMN) identity and a value tag, and determining whether the stored system information is valid for the cell. As another example, a terminal and base station are provided for performing beam failure detection and a recovery procedure using first and second configuration information for beam failure recovery (BFR) and if failure is detected, initiating a first random access (RA) procedure and if second configuration information is received while the first RA procedure is ongoing, terminating the first RA procedure and initiating a second RA procedure based on the second configuration information.

Techniques are described for facilitating an inter-Radio Access Technology (RAT) selection or measurement process for a dual-mode or a multi-mode device. For example, a wireless communication method includes a network node transmitting to a communication node a system information block (SIB) that includes information about Radio Access Technologies (RATs). The information includes any one or more of a first carrier priority value and a first threshold value of a serving frequency associated with a RAT, a second carrier priority value and a second threshold value of a serving cell associated with the RAT, an indicator to indicate existence of one or more additional RATs, carrier information for the one or more additional RATs, and access information to access the one or more additional RATs.
