Systems and methods are disclosed herein for operational tasks to be performed in slots that are partially overlapped by measurement gaps in a wireless communication system. Embodiments of a method performed by a wireless device and corresponding embodiments of a wireless device are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method performed by a wireless device for performing scheduled communications operations for a serving cell comprises determining a communication slot that is partially overlapped by a measurement gap, the communication slot being associated with a serving cell of the wireless device. The method further comprises identifying a scheduled operational task which can be carried out in a non-overlapped portion of the communication slot, the non-overlapped portion of the communication slot being a portion of the communication slot not overlapped by the measurement gap. The method further comprises performing the scheduled operational task in the non-overlapped portion of the communication slot.

A transmitting device may select frequency domain resources for an alert transmission based on a severity level of the alert transmission. The transmitting device may determine a severity level of an alert transmission to be transmitted on one or more available channels. The transmitting device may determine a presence of one or more systems configured to transmit on one or more neighbor channels of the one or more available channels. The transmitting device may select, for the alert transmission, frequency domain resources within the one or more available channels based on the presence of the one or more systems and the severity level. The frequency domain resources for a highest severity level transmission are spaced further apart from the one or more neighbor channels in the frequency domain than resources for a lower severity level transmission. The transmitting device may transmit the alert transmission on the frequency domain resources.

Different filtered-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (f-OFDM) frame formats may be used to achieve the spectrum flexibility. F-OFDM waveforms are generated by applying a pulse shaping digital filter to an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signal. Different frame formats may be used to carry different traffic types as well as to adapt to characteristics of the channel, transmitter, receiver, or serving cell. The different frame formats may utilize different sub-carrier (SC) spacings and/or cyclic prefix (CP) lengths. In some embodiments, the different frame formats also utilize different symbol durations and/or transmission time interval (TTI) lengths.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a base station may transmit a plurality of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) communications in a same PDCCH monitoring occasion in a first cell, and may transmit a plurality of physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) communications in at least one of the first cell or a second cell. Each of the PDCCH communications schedules a respective PDSCH communication of the plurality of PDSCH communications. A PDCCH communication, of the plurality of PDCCH communications, includes an indication of a counter downlink assignment index that is based at least in part on a combination of a starting symbol and a cell in which an associated PDSCH communication is to be transmitted, a cell index of the cell in which the associated PDSCH communication is to be transmitted, and the PDCCH monitoring occasion. Numerous other aspects are provided.

A user equipment (UE) is disclosed that includes a receiver that receives a parameter and a processer that, based on the parameter, configures Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) resources with a first SRS resource set and a second SRS resource set. The UE further includes a transmitter that transmits one or more SRSs using the SRS resources. In other aspects, a method and a wireless communication system are also disclosed.

Described are examples for providing intent based network slice management using a management data analytics function (MDAF) to predict deficiencies. A network management system receives an intent for a network slice constituent. The network management system configures computing resources for the network slice constituent to satisfy the intent based on expected performance of the computing resources. The network management system receives feedback with respect to actual performance of the network slice constituent. The network management system determines, based on analysis of the feedback by a management data analytics function (MDAF), a predicted deficiency of the network slice constituent not being able to satisfy the intent. The network management system modifies the configuration of the computing resources based on the feedback and the predicted deficiency to satisfy the intent.

Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating duplex mode per uplink control channel resource are disclosed herein. An example method for wireless communication at a user equipment includes receiving a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource configuration from a base station, the PUCCH resource configuration indicating an uplink beam for transmitting an uplink transmission. The example method also includes identifying a downlink beam paired with the uplink beam for transmitting the uplink transmission, the paired downlink beam for full-duplex reception of a downlink transmission from the base station that overlaps in time with transmission of the uplink transmission. Additionally, the example method includes performing full-duplex communication with the base station by transmitting the uplink transmission using the uplink beam while receiving the downlink transmission using the paired downlink beam.

A method, network node and wireless device for receiving and/or mapping a physical downlink control channel, PDCCH, to resource elements of a time-frequency grid are provided in which the PDCCH is mapped to resource elements of the time-frequency grid by configuring resource element groups, REGs, each REG spanning one orthogonal frequency division multiplex, OFDM, symbol, and the PDCCH being at least two OFDM symbols. In accordance with one embodiment, the method includes receiving the PDCCH from the network node on one of a plurality of sets of physical resource blocks, PRBs.
