USER EQUIPMENT BEHAVIOR ON OBTAINING NEW RADIO EARLY MEASUREMENT CONFIGURATION

Abstract:

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE). In one aspect, the UE is configured to select, by a user equipment (UE), a list of synchronization signal block (SSB) frequencies included in at least one message as a selected list of SSB frequencies. The UE is further configured to determine, based on whether a first frequency included in the selected list of SSB frequencies is an overlapping carrier or a non-overlapping carrier, whether to perform a new radio (NR) early measurement operation for the first frequency. The UE is also configured to identify a SSB-based measurement timing configuration (SMTC) based on a determination to perform the NR early measurement operation for the first frequency, and to initiate the NR early measurement operation for the first frequency using the identified SMTC.
