A base station can select orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) numerologies that define subcarrier spacing values based on attributes associated with one or more services that a user equipment (UE) is using. The base station can use the selected OFDM numerologies for transmission associated with the services. When the UE is using multiple services simultaneously, the base station can select the same or different OFDM numerologies for the multiple services.

A second base station may transmit, to a UE, an indication of a PCI associated with the second base station. The UE may transmit, to a first base station, a measurement report corresponding to the second base station. The UE may receive, from the first base station, a request for the CGI associated with the second base station based on the PCI associated with the second base station. The UE may receive, from a second base station, a first indication of a CGI associated with the second base station via a PDCCH or a PDSCH. The UE may transmit, to a first base station, a second indication of the CGI associated with the second base station based on the received first indication of the CGI. The CGI may be an NCGI. The UE may refrain from monitoring for a SIB 1 associated with the second base station.

A transmitting apparatus includes: a frame generator configured to generate a frame including a plurality of OFDM symbols; and a signal processor configured to signal-process the generated frame, wherein the plurality of OFDM symbols are included in a bootstrap, a preamble including an L1 basic and an L1 detail, and a payload, and wherein the bootstrap includes information on an FFT size of the OFDM symbols included in the preamble, a length of a guard interval (GI) inserted in the preamble, and a pattern of a preamble pilot inserted in the preamble, and information on an L1 basic mode.

A boundary within a last orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol of a PHY data unit is determined. Pre-encoder padding bits are added to a set of information bits to generate a set of padded information bits such that the set of padded information bits, after being encoded, fill one or more OFDM symbols up to the boundary within the last OFDM symbol. The set of padded information bits are encoded to generate a set of coded bits. A PHY preamble is generated to include a subfield that indicates the boundary. The one or more OFDM symbols are generated to include (i) the set of coded information bits in the one or more OFDM symbols up to the boundary to allow a receiving device to stop decoding the one or more OFDM symbols at the boundary, and (ii) post-encoder padding bits in the last OFDM symbol following the boundary.

An eNodeB (eNB), user equipment (UE) and method of providing a flexible Radio Access Technology (FRAT) are generally described. The information (resource allocation, partition information and numerology) of at least one of a plurality of RATs used by the eNB is provided to a UE. Each RAT has a flexible subcarrier spacing and symbol duration, which are integer multiples of a base subcarrier spacing and symbol duration, and is associated with at least one of different temporal and frequency resources. The symbol and/or frame structure of each RAT are independent. A Transmission Time Interval (TTI) boundary between the RATs is common, and the RATs comprise a common reference TTI duration. The information of the RATs is provided either via a different RAT than the RAT used by the UE for communication or via a dedicated carrier in the RAT used by the UE for communication.

Processing and transmitting transmission frames. A method for processing a transmission frame, includes receiving a transmission frame including a bootstrap portion, a preamble portion, and a payload portion. The boot strap portion of the received transmission frame is processed, by processing circuitry of a reception apparatus, to extract preamble structure information from one of four bootstrap symbols included in the bootstrap portion. The preamble portion of the transmission frame is decoded, by the processing circuitry, based on the extracted preamble structure information. A first one of the four bootstrap symbols is used for synchronization and a last one of the four bootstrap symbols in the bootstrap portion includes the preamble structure information. Further, the preamble structure information indicates a structure of one or more preamble symbols in the preamble portion that follows the last symbol.

A method, system and apparatus are disclosed. According to one or more embodiments, a network node configured to communicate with a wireless device is provided. The network node includes processing circuitry configured to dynamically indicate a mixed numerology to the wireless device for implementation where the mixed numerology corresponds to a first numerology for a data channel and a second numerology for a control channel, the first numerology being different from the second numerology.

Techniques are provided for utilizing positioning reference signals (PRS) in full duplex scenarios. An example method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a positioning reference signal in a time slot, wherein the positioning reference signal spans a first frequency bandwidth, transmitting a signal in a second frequency bandwidth during the time slot, wherein the second frequency bandwidth includes frequencies within the first frequency bandwidth, and processing the positioning reference signal received in the first frequency bandwidth excluding the frequencies in the second frequency bandwidth.

A method in which a first apparatus performs wireless communication and an apparatus supporting the same are provided. The method may include: receiving information related to a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) resource from a base station; receiving a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) from a second apparatus; and transmitting a PSFCH related to the PSSCH to the second apparatus. Here, the information related to the PSFCH resource may include, for example, information related to a resource block (RB) available for the first apparatus to transmit the PSFCH.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a user equipment (UE) may identify an energy per resource element (EPRE) ratio between a synchronization signal block (SSB) symbol containing a primary synchronization signal (PSS) and an SSB symbol containing a secondary synchronization signal (SSS), a physical broadcast channel (PBCH), or both, based on an operating band for the UE, a bandwidth of the SSB symbol containing the PSS and the SSB symbol containing the SSB, the PBCH, or both. The EPRE ratio may be based on maximum regulatory equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) limits, maximum regulatory power spectral density (PSD) limits for the band, or both. The EPRE ratios may be different for different SSB symbols, when different SSB symbols have different bandwidths. A base station may configure and transmit, and a UE may receive, the SSB according to the identified EPRE ratio.
