In other aspects, an apparatus and a system are also disclosed. | 2022-01-20 |
20220022186 | Short TTI Patterns - There is disclosed a method of operating a terminal ( | 2022-01-20 |
20220022187 | TRANSMISSION METHOD, TERMINAL DEVICE, AND NETWORK-SIDE DEVICE - This disclosure provides a transmission method, a terminal device, and a network-side device. The method is applied to a terminal device and includes: receiving first indication information from a network-side device, where the first indication information is used to indicate a first resource usable for configured grant transmission within a configured grant resource period; and transmitting first to-be-transmitted data on the first resource for consecutively K times, where K is a positive integer. | 2022-01-20 |
20220022188 | FACILITATING COMMUNICATION BASED ON FREQUENCY RANGES - Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating per bandwidth part TCI state or spatial relation are disclosed herein. For example, aspects disclosed herein provide techniques for enabling a UE (e.g., a reduced capability UE) to associate at least one of a TCI state or a spatial relation with respective hopping regions. An example method for wireless communication at a UE includes determining, while communicating using a first frequency range comprising a first set of frequency hops, at least one of a TCI state or a spatial relation for communicating using a second frequency range comprising a second set of frequency hops. The example method also includes communicating, after switching communication from the first frequency range to the second frequency range, using the second frequency range based on the determined at least one of the TCI state or the spatial relation. | 2022-01-20 |
20220022189 | TRANSMIT DELAY SENSITIVE UPLINK CONTROL ON SECONDARY CARRIER - Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may select at least one of a primary carrier associated with a physical uplink control channel group or a secondary carrier associated with a physical uplink control channel group for transmitting a physical uplink control channel message to a base station. The UE may transmit, based on selecting at least one of the primary carrier or the secondary carrier, the physical uplink control channel message using at least one of the primary carrier or the secondary carrier. | 2022-01-20 |
20220022190 | APPARATUS AND METHOD OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION OF SAME - An apparatus and a method of wireless communication of same capable of providing good sidelink (SL) system operation performance and saving SL resources are provided. A method of wireless communication of a user equipment includes receiving, from a base station, a sidelink resource configuration signaling for more than one radio access technology (RAT) and reporting to the base station that a UE capability supports cross-RAT control. This provides good sidelink (SL) system operation performance and saving SL resources. | 2022-01-20 |
