A UE may enter a dormant state, e.g., for power savings. The systems, methods, and apparatus described herein may provide ways for the UE to transition between an active state and a dormant state, as well as UE behavior in a dormant state. The apparatus may be a UE configured to receive an indication of a bandwidth part (BWP) switch for a secondary cell and to transition between an active state and a dormant state for the secondary cell based on the indication of the BWP switch.

A user equipment (UE) and a base station (BS) for a mobile communication system are provided. The UE receives, from the BS, a first downlink control information (DCI) indicating a first uplink resource for transmitting a first uplink signal, and then receives, from the BS, a second DCI indicating a second uplink resource for transmitting a second uplink signal. The BS configures the second uplink resource to be advanced to the first uplink resource in the time domain based on the uplink out-of-order configuration. The UE decides the transmission of the first uplink signal according to the condition of resource configuration.

Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE) and methods for communication are generally described herein. The UE may be configured for carrier aggregation using a primary component carrier (CC) and a secondary CC. The UE may attempt to detect a sidelink synchronization signal (SLSS) from another UE on the primary CC. The UE may, if the SLSS from the other UE is detected: determine, based on the detected SLSS, a common time synchronization for the primary CC and the secondary CC for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) sidelink transmissions in accordance with the carrier aggregation. The UE may, if the SLSS from the other UE is not detected: transmit an SLSS to enable determination of the common time synchronization for the primary CC and the secondary CC by the other UE. The SLSS may be transmitted on the primary CC.

A wireless communication network includes a user equipment (UE) to receive a set of instructions, from a base station, to perform a simultaneous change of a set of current bandwidth parts (BWPs) to a set of new BWPs in a set of cells. The set of instructions schedules set of slots for the UE to receive and/or transmit a set of downlink and/or uplink signals via the set of new BWPs, respectively. The UE also determines a delay associated with performing the simultaneous change of the set of current BWPs to the set of new BWPs, respectively, and determines whether it is able to receive and/or transmit the set of downlink and/or uplink signals via the set of new BWPs in the set of slots satisfying the delay, respectively. A base station is also included to communicate with the UE to effectuate the aforementioned operation.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for indicating carrier aggregation capabilities. An example method generally includes signaling, to a base station (BS), carrier aggregation capability information indicating a capability for performing separate operations concurrently on a plurality of component carriers; receiving a carrier aggregation configuration indicating component carriers designated for the separate operations; and receiving or transmitting transmissions based on the carrier aggregation configuration.

The present disclosure provides a method for processing carrier activation at user equipment (UE) and a corresponding device. The method implemented at the user equipment comprises: acquiring an indication related to deactivation of a currently activated carrier, wherein the carrier is a carrier in a carrier group consisting of a plurality of carriers; and if a random access procedure is ongoing, then ignoring the indication.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for channel state information measurement adaptation to maximum multiple-input multiple-output layers. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a first channel state information (CSI) report configuration including one or more first CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) resources, wherein each first CSI-RS resource comprises a first resource set; determining, based on an indication of a maximum number of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) layers that the UE is expected to receive, a first resource subset on which to report first CSI; and reporting the first CSI to a base station (BS), wherein the first CSI is based on the determined first resource subset.

This document generally relates to unified beam indication and/or unified transmission frameworks for wireless communication. In some implementations, a first communication node, such as a mobile station, associates a least one of a power control parameter, a port parameter, or a first reference signal (RS) resource with a communication parameter set, where the communication parameter set comprises at least a second RS resource and at least a quasi co-location (QCL) type parameter. Also, the first communication node may transmit an uplink signal according to the communication parameter set and the association.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, an indication of a monitoring window used by the base station to monitor for uplink transmissions from the UE. The UE may receive a control signal scheduling uplink resources for an uplink transmission by the UE on at least a first component carrier, the first component carrier in a first radio frequency spectrum band. The UE may reconfigure, in response to the received control signal, a first transmit chain of the UE from a second component carrier in a second radio frequency spectrum band to the first component carrier in the first radio frequency spectrum band for the uplink transmission. The UE may transmit, based at least in part on the indicated monitoring window and using at least the reconfigured first transmit chain, the uplink transmission on the first component carrier using the scheduled uplink resources.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) with the capability to support a single active TCI state may receive configuration signaling which configures the UE with an active transmission configuration indication (TCI) state corresponding to a first beam for a control resource set and a shared data channel. The UE may perform a random access channel procedure to select a second beam from a set of different beams. The UE may update a quasi co-location (QCL) assumption for the control resource set to correspond to the second beam and deactivate the active TCI state based on updating the QCL assumption. The UE may then monitor the control resource set, the shared data channel, or both, using the second beam. The UE may deactivate the TCI state and use the indicated downlink beam so that the UE does not exceed its capability.
