H04W 36/08
H04W 72/02
H04W 72/10

Abstract:

UEs' mobility may have a significant impact on sidelink communications and Uu mobility procedures of UEs participating in SL communication or SL Group Communication. Methods devised to optimize handover procedures, cell reselection procedures, and transition to RRC_IDLE and RRC_INACTIVE for UEs with ongoing SL communications. Methods are disclosed herein for PLMN selection for UEs requiring sidelink communication or with active sidelink communication, as well as, methods to provide priority-based resource allocation while using exceptional transmit resource pools. Also, provided are SL group management procedures to deal with impacts of UE mobility.

International Classification:

H04W 52/02
H04W 72/04

Abstract:

A first apparatus including a processor; and a memory storing computer-executable instructions that when executed by the processor cause the first apparatus to: receive, from a second apparatus, information including Discontinuous Reception (DRX) configurations, wherein one of the DRX configurations is a first active DRX configuration and other DRX configurations are candidate DRX configurations; perform Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) monitoring in accordance with the first active DRX configuration; monitor signaling from the second apparatus for an indication that is used for adapting the first active DRX configuration; receive from the second apparatus an indication for adapting the first active DRX configuration into a second active DRX configuration; based on the indication for adapting the first active DRX configuration into the second active DRX configuration, adapt the first active DRX configuration into the second active DRX configuration; and perform PDCCH monitoring in accordance with the second active DRX configuration.

Abstract:

An apparatus in accordance with the present application may monitor a sidelink (SL) connection. The apparatus includes processing circuitry that receives signals in a protocol stack to perform SL-radio link monitoring (SL-RLM), and determines, according to the signals, whether a SL-radio link status reporting dio link failure (RLF) has occurred. The signals may include hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback. In a case that the signals include a HARQ-NACK, the processing circuitry determines that the SL-RLF has occurred. The processing circuitry further receives configuration information related to the SL-RLM for the signals, the configuration information including configurations for measurement quantities of the signals and a condition for declaring SL-RLF, configures, according to the configuration information, lower layers of the protocol stack for the SL-RLM for the signals, and performs SL-RLM measurements of the measurement quantities.

International Classification:

H04W 68/00
H04W 76/20

Abstract:

A radio apparatus communicating with a first and a second network, and having a first connection to the first network, may receive a page from the second network and determine to form a second connection with the second network, and notify the first network of the selection. The first network may then notify the apparatus to release or suspend the first connection. The apparatus may send release and/or suspension preferences to the first network, such as a preference to be treated in an idle or inactive mode, paging preferences, and a preferred identifier of the apparatus. The apparatus may then form the second connection, and monitor for paging from the first network, e.g., during a given paging occasion and paging frame.
