· The BS power model defined in this study is a simplified model for the purposes of evaluations, considering single-RAT NR BSs only. This does not mean a BS cannot benefit from the identified techniques when serving multi-RAT.
Transition among power states, transition time, are implementation specific, and different BS types may support a different number of power states with different characteristics, i.e., power consumption values and required transition time.
Agreement
All calculation of energy consumption should use the same time unit (companies to indicate which time unit they used).

Based on the simulation results, at empty load, one result shows that BS energy saving gain can be achieved by 15.7%-28.3% with only PSS and SSS transmitted from SSB, and half-reduced SIB1 transmission One company show that the gain from light SSB only ranges from 0.8% to 4.4%, which slightly increases as the listening periodicity of WUS from UE becomes larger. One result shows that simplified SSB with PSS, SSS and partial PBCH, for empty load and Set 1 reference configuration, 2.4% BS energy savings can be achieved.
No impact on UPT was observed due to empty load.

Based on the results,
· One company observed that statically skipping certain SIB1 transmission occasions under Set 1 reference configuration for BS Category 1 can achieve energy saving gain by 2.6%~3.9% compared to the baseline of 20 ms SSB&SIB1 repetition periodicity at low load. No impact to UPT was observed. There is no random access procedure modelled in the simulation, therefore the impact on access delay/latency is not shown.
· One company observed that static adaptation of number of SSB can achieve energy saving gain by 0.3%~25.4% at different scenarios with FTP3 model. The gain generally increases when the traffic load becomes lighter while decreases as the SSB periodicity becomes larger. For a same traffic load and SSB periodicity, the gain increases as the number of SSB can be reduced. For FR2 with larger number of SSB for baseline, there is generally larger gain observed than FR1. Due to reduced number of SSB, access delay is increased. Performance of dynamic adaptation of SSB numbers is not provided. There is no random access procedure modelled in the simulation, therefore the impact on access delay/latency is not shown.

Based on the results with static configurations from 9 sources, it can be observed that longer SSB/SIB1 periodicity can bring BS with significant energy savings in most cases, compared to a selected baseline, for both BS Categories, under all reference configurations. When other configurations/settings are the same, the saving gain generally increase as the periodicity becomes larger, and decrease as the traffic load increases or the number of SSBs increases. Particularly, there are two companies providing results with SSB periodicity larger than 160ms which is the maximum value that is currently supported, i.e., being 640ms and 1280ms, and observed that together with longer SIB1/RACH/RO monitoring periodicities, then depending on the traffic load, the BS energy saving gain can be 53.6%~7.1% and 83.6%~3.4%, respectively, compared to a baseline with 20ms SSB periodicity.
The scheme does not affect the UPT for empty load case. When traffic occurs and load increases, the UPT also significantly decreases. The latency/access delay/UE power consumption increases proportionally as the periodicity of SSB/SIB increases compared to a corresponding baseline.
Performance of dynamic SSB/SIB1 periodicity adaptation is not provided.

Based on the results,
· One company observed that for BS category 1 and at empty load case, statically adapting paging configuration could provide BS energy savings by 0.3%~6.7% when paging load (resource used for paging) is 0.2%~0.5%, and the gain can be up to 42.3% when paging load is increased up to 3.6%. The gain could also increases as the number of SSB increases. Performance of dynamically adapting paging configurations is not provided. The above energy saving gains were achieved with SSB periodicity of 80ms or 160ms.
· One company observed that having compact SSB (i.e., no time gap between consecutive SSBs) could provide 10.3% network energy saving for BS category 1 and at empty load case in FR2 when SSB periodicity is 20ms. Furthermore, UE power saving can be improved by 4%.

"light SSB" combined with UL WUS and on demand SIB 1 |
For UE WUS signal triggering SSB/SIB1/RACH for RRC IDLE/INACTIVE/CONNECTED mode, based on results from 4 sources, it is observed that, with UE WUS signal triggering a BS of 100% detection assumption,
· With C-DRX, at low load, one source observed about 50% network energy savings with marginal UE power increment, without UPT loss observed. The scheduling delay when switching to a new gNB is not modelled.
· For the evaluations with assumption of RRC_IDLE/INACTIVE mode without C-DRX,
o without DL transmission including DL common signals before gNB reception of WUS, with WUS period of 20ms, 80ms and 160ms, at zero or low load, the network energy savings could be 7.4%~32.1% (6.2%~45.6%), 19.6%~69.6% (6.4%~51.9%), 23.8%~ 83.7% (6.5%~52.5%) respectively by using Category 1 (Category 2) BS power model. The savings can increase as the WUS period increases, and decrease as the traffic load increases. When WUS period is 20ms, marginal UPT loss, access delay/latency increment and UE power consumption increment are observed. The UPT loss and access delay/latency increases as WUS periodicity increases, while there is marginal UE power consumption increment.
o With sparse SSB of 160ms periodicity transmitted before gNB reception of WUS, at zero or low load, 27.3%~29.7% (18.1%~19.1%), 60.4%~66.6% (18.3%~19.4%), 72.8%~80.7% (18.3%~19.4%) network energy savings can be achieved with WUS period of 20ms, 80ms and 160ms respectively by using Category 1 (Category 2) BS power model. When WUS period is 20ms, marginal UPT loss, access delay/latency increment and UE power consumption increment are observed. The UPT loss and access delay/latency increases as WUS periodicity increases, while there is marginal UE power consumption increment.
· Note: gNB coordination for WUS reception is assumed. Resource configuration for WUS is not specifically modelled, while one source assumes the configuration of WUS can be obtained from a camping cell. For the case of no DL transmission, also gNB synchronization is further assumed.
· Note: For evaluation results from 2 source, it is assumed that UE achieves timing for the UL WUS transmission from the other cell. For evaluation results from 2 source, it is assumed that UE achieves synchronization with the gNB targeted for energy saving utilizing discovery signal from the same cell, and one source assumed the discovery signal contains PSS only and its use is to help the UE to get synchronized and to be able to transmit an uplink trigger signal. The differentiation of multiple gNBs which has detected the WUS is not modelled.
o The detection of WUS is assumed to be ideal. False triggering for detection of targeting gNB is not considered.
For UE WUS signal triggering gNB to wake up in case of uplink traffic arrival, for RRC_CONNECTED without C-DRX and without DL common signals/DL transmission other than PDCCH carrying UL grant, with the assumption of a separate receiver used and 100% detection assumption, at low load, 1 source observed that,
· With WUS detection power of 10, 55 or, with 90 which has the same active UL power
o When the WUS periodicity is same as the baseline of SR periodicity, 77.8%~93%, 66.7%~92.8% or 57.2%~76.4% network energy savings could be achieved respectively;
o When the WUS periodicity is smaller than the SR periodicity of the baseline, 76.3%~92%, 46.7%~78% or 25.7%~67.1% network energy savings could be achieved respectively;
o For each case, the gain generally increases as the WUS periodicity increases and decreases as the traffic load increases. The gain could also increase as the gNB detection power decreases.
o There is latency reduction observed, which could increase as the periodicity of WUS decreases. The gain can be up to 45%.
· The assumption is that gNB needs to wake up to detect SR but can detect WUS during sleep state. gNB is assumed to be in a state such that the main UL receiver is still in deep sleep when detecting wake-up signal and gNB is able to wake up from deep sleep to active in one slot after WUS detection. The WUS receiver is assumed to be active only when detection of WUS signal and becomes 0 power in other time.
When combined with a light version of SSB and on demand SIB1, one source observed 18.7% network energy savings at low load for FR2, assuming the light version of SSB contains PSS only and its use is to help the UE to get synchronized and to be able to transmit an uplink trigger signal.

Based on 6 sources results, semi-static UE C-DRX alignment achieves BS energy savings gain by 0.2%~71.4% depending on the traffic, UE DRX configurations, and the assumed baseline e.g. random DRX offset per UE, or gNB is always ON to provide service to the UE. At low or light traffic load cases, 4 sources show that the gain can be 14.4%~71.4%, while 3 sources show less than 6.7% gain, depending on whether BS and UE active duration are aligned or not; at medium load case, 2 sources show network energy saving gain can be 4.8%~47.8%. According to one source, dropping SSB outside UE active time can achieve the energy savings by 14.4%~70.1% and it is assumed that the UE active durations are aligned and the potential impact on synchronization and UE measurement outside the UE duration is not considered.
On UPT, one result shows there is marginal negative impact while one result shows it can be up to 15.5%. Also, one result shows that the impact on UPT varies: when the UE DRX cycle is 160ms and gNB active time is 80ms, the UPT is increased while in other configurations, there can be large UPT loss.
On access delay/latency, one result shows marginal increment while one result shows the increment can be up to 50%. Also, about 50% unfinished packet ratio is observed from one source compared to the baseline without UE C-DRX alignment during the evaluation period. The increments are related to the DRX configuration.
Additionally, one source shows that at low and medium load, the average EE is increased up to 28.93% when UE DRX alignment is assumed, whereas for light load case, average EE decreases up to 12.24% when UE DRX alignment is assumed.

One source shows that with a 4-symbol Discover signal (DRS), and without SIB1 transmission and for on-demand SIB1, 2.6% and 5.9% energy savings can be achieved for one SSB and four SSB respectively, at empty load with baseline of 20ms SSB/160ms SIB1 periodicity.
One source shows on-demand SSB can achieve BS energy savings by 22.0%/43.4% at low load compared to a baseline of 20ms SSB/SIB1 periodicity with or without gNB DTX configuration.
One source is provided with on-demand SIB1 at empty load with baseline of 20ms SSB/SIB1 periodicity, 5.8%~8.6% BS energy savings can be achieved at SIB1 transmission rate of 20%~5% for one SSB beam, and the gains can increase to 32.1%~38.8% for 8 beams case for a same SIB1 transmission rate range.

Observation includes the results for techniques that are also evaluated under #A-6. The following is observed.
In general, for SSB and/or SIB saved from one carrier of two carriers, 8 resources observed BS energy savings gain, by 5.1%~97.4% for empty load, 3.0%~58.4% for low load, and 1.0%~7.9% for light load, 0.3%~5.7% for medium load. When traffic load is low, network may turn off SCell for energy saving. The results are for FR1 only.
With one of two carriers having simplified SSB and no SIB1, one result shows BS energy saving gain can be achieved by 31.4%~56.5% compared with a baseline of both carriers having SSB and SIB1 periodicity of 20ms; the same source company result also show that with CA configured where SIB1 is already carried by PCell, compared with normal SSB on SCell, the gain of simplified SSB on SCell can be 5.7%~10.5%.
With SIB-less only from one of two carriers and SSB is still transmitted,
·
one result shows that
33.6%~16.0% BS energy saving gain can be achieved compared with a carrier has
20ms SIB1 periodicity and both SSB and SIB1
are transmitted, and the gain which decreases
as the traffic load increases, compared with 20ms SIB1 periodicity.
Meanwhile, the SIB1 carried on another carrier increase the energy of that
carrier by 7.5%~5.5%, resulting a total saving across two carries by
26.1%~10.5%. The gain decreases to 4.0% when the baseline SIB1 periodicity
increases to 160ms;
· one result shows BS energy saving gain can be 3.3%~40.7% compared with baseline of SSB+SIB periodicity of {20ms+20ms, 80ms+80ms, 160ms+160ms} for anchor cell and non-anchor cell; meanwhile, the SIB1 carried on another carrier increase the energy of that carrier by 2.0%~17.8%, resulting a total saving across two carries by 1.3%~22.9%;
· one result shows at different loads, compared to baseline of 20 ms SSB/SIB1 periodicity, that BS energy savings can be achieved by 53.8%~36.5% with RO periodicity of 20ms and 160ms;
· also one result show less than 2.3% BS energy savings when compared with a baseline of SCell having SIB1.
With SSB-less only from one of two
carriers, for CA in which case the SIB is already saved from ScellSCell, with assumption that UE is able to acquire
sync from a carrier from another band,
· at different loads, compared to a baseline of 20 ms SSB/SIB1 periodicity, one result shows BS energy savings by 27.5%~22.7% and 51.8%~43.2% when the RO periodicity is 20ms and 160ms respectively;
· two results show that BS energy savings can be 5.1%~14.7% at different loads, compared to a baseline of 20ms SSB periodicity;
· one result shows with the same load, BS energy saving gain can be 6.1%~15.2% for DL traffic, and 18.7%~39.4% for UL traffic compared with baseline of SSB periodicity of {20ms, 80ms, 160ms}. The BS energy saving gain from SSB-less cell with UL traffic is 12.6%~24.2% larger than SSB-less cell with DL traffic;
· one result also shows that when the baseline Scell SSB periodicity is 160ms, only 0.3%~3% BS energy savings can be achieved, and one another shows BS energy savings by less than 7.9% if compared with Scell having SIB1.
· UE measurement is based on SSB(s) transmitted in the other carrier of the two carriers
With both SSB-less and SIB1-less from one of two carriers for non-CA operation, with assumption that UE is able to acquire sync from a carrier from another band,
· compared to baseline of 20 ms SSB/SIB1 periodicity on both carriers, one result shows BS energy savings by 55.1%~44.4% with RO periodicity of 20ms~160ms at different loads, and one result shows 9.1%~14.8% energy savings at empty load if an anchor carrier carries additional SIB1 for another carrier;
· at different loads, compared to baseline of 20 ms SSB/SIB1 periodicity, one result shows BS energy savings by 36.0%~13.5% when combined with simplified SSB (i.e. PSS and SSS only);
· one result shows that with baseline of SSB+SIB periodicity of {20ms+20ms, 80ms+80ms, 160ms+160ms} for anchor cell and non-anchor cell, BS energy savings can be 9.4%~97.9% if an anchor carrier carries the SSB and SIB1 for another carrier depending on the traffic load. Meanwhile, the SIB1 carried on another carrier increase the energy of that carrier by 2.0%~17.8%, resulting a total saving across two carries by 7.4%~80.1%.
· Comparison with CA is not provided
· UE measurement is not considered
For source results where SSB is not transmitted in SCell, performance impact(s) due to lack of AGC and cell measurement results before SCell access and activation is not provided.
For source results where SSB is not transmitted in neighbour cell, mobility performance impact(s) due to SSB-less operation in neighbour cell(s) is not provided.
In most results for SSB and/or SIB saved from one carrier of two carriers, the UPT is not negatively impacted while one result shows slightly increased UPT. One source shows that the SCell activation delay can also be reduced to 6ms from the baseline.
No negative impact observed on UE power consumption for the above schemes.
Additionally, SSB-less SCell for CA can slightly improve the average EE, reported by one result.
One company showed that UE-group Pcell switching together with Scell dormancy could provide network energy saving by up to 37.5% for two-CC CA scenario with FR1 Set 1. However, UPT degrades by 14% if one Scell goes to dormant state.

The following capture the results for semi-statically configured bandwidth part of UEs within a carrier. The evaluation is performed with different traffic, e.g. medium traffic to light traffic for Set 1, and low traffic to very low traffic for Set 3, and the reduced BW of 80 MHz is applied as NES mode compared with baseline BW of 100 MHz.

The following capture the results for dynamic adaptation of spatial elements.
Table 6.1.1-x: BS energy savings by adaptation of spatial elements
Use table in section 6.3.1.2 of R1-2212935
12 sources observed that BS energy savings can be achieved, at all loads for different sets of reference configurations with FTP3 for FTP3 IM traffic models, with or without UE C-DRX configuration. The gain depends on whether there is multiple CSI report assistance, the number of antenna ports that can be adapted, the load scenarios, and UPT loss. No performance analysis was provided for broadcast and common channels with dynamic antenna adaptation.
With dynamic/semi-static adaptation of spatial elements,
· One source shows that BS energy saving for UE specific PDSCH for FR1 can be achieved by 3.4%~19.2% with dynamic adaptation and multi-CSI, compared to dynamic adaptation of spatial elements with single CSI report. The UPT loss was observed by less than 10%.
· 2 sources shows that the gain for UE specific PDSCH for FR1 can be 7.6%~31.3% with dynamic adaptation and multi-CSI, compared with no adaptation, with UPT loss of 0.02%~7%.
· 2 sources show that the gain can be 6.7%~26.5% with dynamic adaptation without multi-CSI, compared to no adaptation, with UPT loss of 0.3%~18.5%.
· 9 sources show that the gain can be 4.8%~48.2% with static adaptation without multi-CSI, compared to no adaptation, with UPT loss of 0.02%~87.08%. One source observed that the downlink coverage is reduced by 4.5dB – 6.5dB when reducing the number of TxRUs from 64 to 32 in Set 1 FR1 configuration.
· One source shows that when dynamic antenna adaptation is variably changed, the gain is reduced to a range of 0~4.5% with 0.02%~2.18% UPT loss.
· One source shows BS energy saving can be 18.8%~19.7% that additional gain can be obtained when this scheme is combined with PDSCH power offset. The UPT loss is observed by 9.06%.
· More number of elements are reduced, more gain can be generally obtained.
On latency, there is negative impact observed in three sources and the increment becomes larger as the number of reduced antenna ports becomes larger.
On UE power consumption, 2 sources show that there is increase by up to 79.99% % (number of TX RU is reduced from 64 to 8).
Additionally, one result shows that the average EE can be generally increased except for the low load case where number of antenna is reduced from 64 to 16, and the case of antenna number variably changing.

With transmission power reduction on PDSCH, 10 sources show that it can achieve BS energy savings gain at all load cases for both Set 1 FR1 TDD and Set 2 FR1 FDD including 4Tx BS antenna configuration, for both BS categories with FTP3 or FTP3 IM model, with or without UE C-DRX configuration.
With dynamic power reduction assisted by multi-CSI,
· For UE specific PDSCH in FR1, one source observed BS energy saving gain by 5.3%~11.5%, compared to dynamic power reduction without multi-CSI report; one source observed BS energy savings by 12.1%~23.8%, compared to no power reduction baseline;
· The gain generally increases when the traffic load increases;
· The UPT loss is less than 1.17%.
· No performance analysis was provided for broadcast and common channels with dynamic downlink transmission power adaptation.
With semi-static power reduction of 3~18dB in 6 sources and two other sources, compared to a baseline without power reduction, network energy saving can be achieved by 3.9%~51.6%.
· The gain can increase as the traffic load increases in most cases while one source observed a reduced gain, for BS category 1 with power reduction of 3 dB;
· The UPT loss is observed from 2.03%~19.49%.
One source observed that the latency can be increased by up to 24.21% when the power reduction level is up to 9 dB; one source observed that packet latency can be increased by 24.7% while scheduling delay is not increased.

The transmission of common signal and channels or reception of random-access signals may limit the gNB ability to use (deeper) sleep modes to save energy. Currently, system information (SI) update mechanism can adapt the parameters in the cell, such as those associated with downlink common and broadcast signals, such as SSB/SI/paging/cell common PDCCH, and/or the periodicity/availability of uplink random access resources.
Technique
A-1 adapts the transmission pattern (when applicable) of downlink common
and broadcast signals, such as SSB/SI/paging/cell common PDCCH, and/or the transmission
pattern/availability of uplink random access opportunities. Adaptation
of the transmission pattern includes changes to periodicity, time resource
locations, and omitting of specific signals/channels. The transmission pattern
can be adapted semi-statically or dynamically. For adaptation of
uplink random access opportunities, PRACH resources
configured via SIB1 are used to support legacy and Rel-18 UEs and dynamic

transmissions in A-6. Technique A-3 can be used to trigger gNB to wake
up in A-4.
With the support of WUS, the gNB might be inactive (e.g., where it does not transmit nor receive signal/channel or where it only transmits and receives limited signals). A gNB can transition to become active for transmitting or receiving a channel/signal upon reception of an uplink signal from the UE.

6.1.X Technique A-4
6.1.X.1 Description of technique
Currently, the gNB can use reduce downlink
transmission/uplink reception activity without an explicit cell DTX/DRX pattern
with
restrictions due to UE DRX configurations and any configured
transmission/reception, e.g., common channels/signals. Currently C-DRX is
configured per UE. The alignment of the DRX cycles or offsets for different UEs can be
done only via RRC. During UE DRX off period, the UE does not expect to monitor
PDCCH, but it is allowed to initiate UL transmission according to the
configured resources (e.g. using PUCCH, RACH, SR, or CG-PUSCH).
Aligning/Omitting of DRX patterns across multiple UE’s can be achieved via gNB
implementation. In addition, UE expects to monitor/receive
configured DL signals/channels and network is expected to monitor/receive
configured UL signals/channels, which may prevent the cell DTX/DRX.
Technique A-4 aims at providing mechanisms informing UE whether the cell stays inactive. This may include enhancements to UE DRX configuration, e.g., to align/omit DRX cycles or start offsets of DRX, for UEs in connected mode or idle/inactive mode, potentially allowing longer opportunities for cell inactivity. During a cell DTX/DRX, the cell may have no transmission/reception or only keep limited transmission/reception. For example, the cell does not need to transmit or receive some periodic signals/channels, such as common channels/signals or UE specific signals/channels.

For the cell DTX/DRX cases, depending on DTX/DRX occasions, legacy UEs and UEs that do not support the technique may not have impact to idle/inactive/connected mode operations. For example, if DTX/DRX are not applied to common signals and channel required for idle/inactive/connected modes or applied in UE specific manner, legacy UEs and UEs that do not support the technique may not be impacted.

6.3.X Technique C-1
6.3.X.1 Description of technique
According to legacy MIMO procedures, the adaptation of spatial elements can be achieved by RRC (re-)configurations updating, such as CSI-RS (re-)configurations, in a semi-static manner. Moreover, the current framework allows UE to be configured with multiple CSI-RS resources, where these CSI-RS configurations may be with respect to different numbers of spatial antenna ports or antenna elements. With CSI reports respect to different number of spatial elements available, gNB is able to dynamically adjust the number of spatial elements for PDSCH transmission in current specification. CSI-RS and CSI reporting configurations are BWP-specific, and BWP adaptation framework can be utilized for the adaptation for a UE capable of multiple BWPs and dynamic BWP switching.
Indication for potential enhancements related to spatial element adaptation may help the UEs to adapt the already configured CSI-RS configuration such as dynamic/semi-persistent ON-OFF of CSI-RS or to reconfigure the CSI-RS configuration, with respect to adapted number of spatial elements/ports.
Technique C-1 aims to enhance dynamically adaptation of spatial elements such as the number of active transceiver chains or the number of active antenna panels at gNB in transmitting and/or receiving channels and signals.

6.4.X Technique D-4
6.4.X.1 Description of technique
In case of low load, the PA can adapt/reduce its backoff reducing thus the PA power consumption. PA backoff impacts unwanted in-band and out-of-band emissions. gNB may be able to implement PA backoff adaptation in a specification transparent manner.
Technique
D-4 supports modification and/or reduction of the power amplifier (PA) input
bias backoff in cases of no or low load. This technique aims
to enables PA backoff adaptation for few msec, or
usec, and coordinate PA backoff adaptation among neighboring
cells.

6.4.X.3 Legacy UE and RAN1 Specification impacts
The list of UE and RAN1 specification impact described in this section is not an exhaustive list. RAN1 may identify additional impact and also determine that listed impact below may no longer apply to the described technique(s) as specification is further developed.
Specification impact of the technique may include:
- mechanism and signalling to enable operation of UE post distortion,
- enhancements to reference signals to aid UE post distortion,
- signaling/configuration
for supporting UE digital post-distortion,
(e.g., UEs capability, list of power amplifier models)

6.1.X Technique A-6
6.1.X.1 Description of technique
Current specification supports SSB/SIB1-less operation for intra-band CA, where UE retrieves system information from and can perform synchronization based on another intra-band cell that transmits SSB and SIB1. Current specification supports SSB periodicity configuration up to 160 msec.
For technique A-6, the UE may obtain system information from other associated carriers/cells and synchronize from other associated carriers/cells and/or synchronize from signal(s) transmitted on the cell.
Technique A-6 also supports on-demand SSBs/SIB1 transmissions and enable longer periods of cell inactivity to achieve network energy saving. SSB/SIB1 transmission at the serving cell can be triggered on-demand, e.g by the UE.

[Editor Note: Analysis/Observation of performance evaluations to be discussed in AI 9.7.1]
6.1.X.3 Legacy UE and RAN1 Specification impacts
The list of UE and RAN1 specification impact described in this section is not an exhaustive list. RAN1 may identify additional impact and also determine that listed impact below may no longer apply to the described technique(s) as specification is further developed.
Specification impact of the technique may include:
- channel/signal design and behaviors and procedures of on-demand SSBs/SIB1 and any related signaling,
- random access related enhancement including procedures and configuration for UEs to access the SSB/SIB1-less carrier/cell,
- mobility support or paging for the cell that does not transmit SSB and/or SIB1,
- design for new signal/channel (if any) and related procedures,
For on-demand SSB, if no SSB or simplified SSB is transmitted and normal SSB transmission is triggered upon reception of UE WUS, legacy UEs and UEs that do not support this technique may not be able to operate in this cell.
- Technique may be enabled for a carrier only when legacy UEs are not using the carrier.
For on-demand SIB1, if no SIB1 is transmitted and normal SIB1 transmission is triggered upon reception of UE WUS, legacy UEs and UEs that do not support this technique may not be able to operate in this cell.
- Technique may be enabled for a carrier only when legacy UEs are not using the carrier.
For technique where UE may obtain system information from other associated carriers/cells, cell without a SSB cannot be used as Pcell/PScell/inter-band Scell for legacy UEs and UEs that do not support this technique.
For technique where UE may obtain system information from other associated carriers/cells, cell without a SIB1 cannot be used as Pcell for legacy UEs and UEs that do not support this technique.

6.2.X Technique B-1
6.2.X.1 Description of technique
Intra-band SSB-less Scell operation is supported by the current specification. Pcell switching is supported by handover command according to current specification.
Technique B-1 supports inter-band CA with SSB-less Scell. No SSB transmission in some inter-band SCell. The synchronization is acquired from other cell with SSB transmission or same cell with simplified signal transmission, also in order for fast activation and deactivation of SCell. Enabling of inter-band SSB-less Scell operation that may include mechanism for UE/gNB to trigger normal SSB transmission and/or reference signals, if needed, on a SCell for fast access, where the on-demand uplink triggering signal can be received either at inter-band SSB-less cell or another carrier/cell. RACH transmission opportunity may be supported in SSB-less Scell.
Technique B-1 supports dynamic Pcell switching in which a common primary cell may be dynamically indicated for a group of UEs.

6.2.X.3 Legacy UE and RAN1 Specification impacts
The list of UE and RAN1 specification impact described in this section is not an exhaustive list. RAN1 may identify additional impact and also determine that listed impact below may no longer apply to the described technique(s) as specification is further developed.
For SSB-less inter-band CA, Specification impact of the technique may include:
- RACH procedures in SSB-less SCell for inter-band CA,
- enhancement on SCell activation procedure,
- enhancements on SCell dormancy operation,
- design for new simplified signal/channel (if supported) and related procedures,
Legacy UEs or UEs that do not support this feature may not be able to operate inter-band CA with SSB-less Scells. A carrier without SSB cannot be operated as a PCell for legacy UEs. The carrier cannot be operated as an SCell for legacy UEs if another intra-band carrier with SSB is not present. At least the feasibility and/or potential requirements of acquiring synchronization/measurements (including AGC aspects) from other cell with SSB transmission in inter-band CA needs study.
For inter-band SSB-less technique, cell without a SSB cannot be used as Pcell/PScell/inter-band Scell for the legacy UEs and UEs that do not support this technique.

- mechanism to signal Pcell switching,
- UE behavior based on indicated signalling.

R1-2304120 Discussion summary #5 for enhancements on cell DTX/DRX mechanism Moderator (Intel Corporation)
From April 26th GTW session
Agreement
For PDDCH monitoring, further work on Rel-18 NES in RAN1 is to follow the RAN2 agreement below:
10. The understanding for the gNB scheduling behaviour for new transmissions during Cell DTX non-active period is that the gNB does not schedule UE-specific dynamic grants/assignments, even if the UE is in C-DRX Active Time. UE doesn’t monitor PDCCH for dynamic grants/assignments for new transmissions during Cell DTX non-active period, even if the UE is in C-DRX Active time. FFS how to deal with any exceptions (e.g. SR if agreed and RACH).
Working Assumption
Support of L1 signaling at least for activation/deactivation of a cell DTX and/or DRX configuration is feasible (e.g., in terms of enabling/disenabling the feature) from RAN1 perspective.

From Wednesday session
Agreement
· Adopt the following TP for TS 38.214, Clause 5.2.1.1
=== start of TP===
The time domain behavior of the CSI-ReportConfig is indicated by the higher layer parameter reportConfigType and can be set to 'aperiodic', 'semiPersistentOnPUCCH', 'semiPersistentOnPUSCH', or 'periodic'. For 'periodic' and 'semiPersistentOnPUCCH'/'semiPersistentOnPUSCH' CSI reporting, the configured periodicity and slot offset applies in the numerology of the UL BWP in which the CSI report is configured to be transmitted on. The higher layer parameter reportQuantity indicates the CSI-related, L1-RSRP-related, L1-SINR-related, CapabilityIndex-related or TDCP-related quantities to report. The reportFreqConfiguration indicates the reporting granularity in the frequency domain, including the CSI reporting band and if PMI/CQI reporting is wideband or sub-band. The timeRestrictionForChannelMeasurements parameter in CSI-ReportConfig can be configured to enable time domain restriction for channel measurements and timeRestrictionForInterferenceMeasurements can be configured to enable time domain restriction for interference measurements. The CSI-ReportConfig can also contain CodebookConfig, which contains configuration parameters for Type-I, Type II, Enhanced Type II CSI, Further Enhanced Type II Port Selection, Enhanced Type II for coherent joint transmission (CJT), Further Enhanced Type II Port Selection for CJT, Enhanced Type II for predicted PMI, or Further Enhanced Type II Port Selection for predicted PMI including codebook subset restriction when applicable, and configurations of group-based reporting. A UE is not expected to be configured with a CSI report setting associated with a dormant DL BWP if the reportConfigType is set to 'aperiodic'. A CSI-ReportConfig can contain a list of sub-configurations, provided by the higher layer parameter [csi-ReportSubConfigList], where each sub-configuration is identified by [csi-ReportSubConfigID] and corresponds to a list of one or more CSI-RS resources or corresponds to a CSI-RS antenna port subset, and/or corresponds to a power offset for PDSCH relative to CSI-RS additional to powerControlOffset of the CSI-RS resource. A UE is not expected to be configured with a CSI-ReportConfig that contains a mix of sub-configuration(s) each corresponding to a list of one or more CSI-RS resources and some other sub-configuration(s) each corresponding to CSI-RS antenna port subset.
=== end of TP===
Conclusion
There is no consensus to support the following:
· A UE only reports PMI in CSI part 2 for the first sub-configuration among the sub-configurations with the same RI reported across sub-configurations.
Agreement
From RAN1 perspective, up to 4 CSI report configurations can be configured in a BWP for SP CSI reporting on PUCCH where one or more report configurations can contain a list of sub-configuration(s).
· Send an LS to RAN2 including the relevant agreements made in UE feature discussions.
Comeback on the LS
R1-2310577 SP-CSI reporting for network energy savings Huawei
Thursday decision: The draft LS is endorsed. Final LS is approved in R1-2310578.
Agreement
Only codebook type 1 for PMI is supported for type 2 SD adaptation and PD adaptation.
Conclusion
There is no consensus on the following proposal:
For a P/SP-CSI report configuration containing a list of L sub-configurations, if at least one subConfig (which is the triggered one for SP-CSI reporting, or configured one for P-CSI report) is associated with more than one CSI-RS resource, nCSI_ref is the smallest value >=5*2μDL; otherwise, it is the smallest value no smaller than 4*2μDL.

From Thursday session
For RAN1#115:
Further discuss in the next meeting for the following case:
A UE configured with CSI report configuration with e.g. two sub-configurations (sub-config#1 and sub-config#2), each with e.g. two CSI-RS resources, none of the CSI-RS Tx occasions of sub-config#1 meet the CSI reference resource, i.e. they are later than CSI ref. resource, the UE shall
· Alt 1: report the CSI report, according to current spec
· Alt 2: report the CSI sub-report#2 only and drop the CSI sub-report#1 only
· Alt 3: drop the entire CSI report
R1-2310574 FL summary#5 for SD and PD adaptation for R18 NES Moderator (Huawei)
From Friday session
For RAN1#115
· Further check whether there is any issue according to the current specification that, for the CSI mapping of a CSI report configuration having L sub-configurations, Part 2 wideband CSIs have the same priority and are dropped per sub-configuration level in the ascending order of sub-configuration index.
· Further check whether part 1 CSI can already be dropped in legacy for a CSI report configuration, and if so, then Part 1 CSIs are dropped per sub-configuration level, in the ascending order of sub-configuration index.
· Companies are encouraged to provide TPs for necessary changes.
Agreement
For CSI reporting on PUCCH and PUSCH, at least one new table is introduced for the scenarios of Table 6.3.1.1.2-11 and Table 6.3.2.1.2-5 in TS38.212, with update corresponding to the CSI mapping order of part 2 CSI even/odd subbands for CSI reporting corresponding to one or more sub-configurations.
Agreement
· Adopt the following TP for TS 38.214 for the above agreements

---------------------------------------------------- Unchanged text is omitted ---------------------------------------------------------
If the UE is configured with a CSI-ReportConfig that contains a list of sub-configurations, provided by the higher layer parameter [csi-ReportSubConfigList]:
−
tThe UE expects
to be configured with the higher layer parameter codebookType set to
'typeI-SinglePanel' or 'typeI-MultiPanel'. If the UE indicates a capability for
supporting mixed codebook combination in a slot with [ABC], each
sub-configuration can be configured with the higher layer parameter codebookType
set to 'typeI-SinglePanel' or 'typeI-MultiPanel'.
−
- Each
sub-configuration can be configured with an antenna port subset using the
higher layer bitmap parameter [port-subsetIndicator] which contains the
bit sequence , where
is the MSB
and
is the LSB,
bit
corresponds
to antenna port
, and
is the
number of ports nrofPorts configured for the CSI-RS resources(s) within
the NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceSet contained in the CSI-ResourceConfig
for channel measurement that corresponds to the CSI-ReportConfig. A bit
value 0 in [port-subsetIndicator] indicates that the corresponding
antenna port is disabled for the sub-configuration, whereas bit value 1
indicates that the antenna port is enabled and belongs to the antenna port
subset for the sub-configuration. For the derivation of PMI,
antenna ports corresponding to all bits with value of 1 in
[port-subsetIndicator] are mapped to
consecutive antenna ports starting at CSI-RS antenna
port 3000 in increasing order of the bit position in [port-subsetIndicator].

list of NZP CSI-RS resources configured for any other sub-configuration(s)
within the CSI-ReportConfig.
Agreement
For Type 1 SD adaptation, or joint operation of Type 1 SD and PD adaptation,
· For a CSI report with reportQuantity set to 'cri-RI-i1-CQI', UE expects that typeISinglePanel-codebookSubsetRestriction-i2 to be configured in each sub-configuration that contains port-subsetIndicator.

-----------------------------------------------------------Text proposal ----------------------------------------------------------- 5.2.1.6 CSI processing criteria <omitted text> In
any slot, the UE is not expected to have more active CSI-RS ports or active
CSI-RS resources in active BWPs than reported as capability. NZP CSI-RS
resource is active in a duration of time defined as follows. For aperiodic
CSI-RS, starting from the end of the PDCCH containing the request and ending
at the end of the scheduled PUSCH containing the report associated with this
aperiodic CSI-RS. When the PDCCH candidates are associated with a search
space set configured with searchSpaceLinking,
for the purpose of determining the NZP CSI-RS resource active
duration, the PDCCH candidate that ends later in
time among the two linked PDCCH candidates is used. For
semi-persistent CSI-RS, starting from the end of when the activation command
is applied, and ending at the end of when the deactivation command is
applied. For periodic CSI-RS, starting when the periodic CSI-RS is configured
by higher layer signalling, and ending when the periodic CSI-RS configuration
is released. If a CSI-RS resource is referred N times by one or more
CSI Reporting Settings not configured with higher

· For Cell DTX/DRX indication of a block in DCI format 2_9
o if [cellDTXDRX-L1activation] is configured,
§ 2 bits if cellDTXDRXconfigType is configured to dtxdrx for the serving cell;
§ 1 bit if cellDTXDRXconfigType is configured to either dtx or drx for the serving cell;
o otherwise 0 bit.
o [cellDTXDRX-L1activation] is a new RRC parameter
Agreement
· Introduce a new RRC parameter [cellDTXDRX-L1activation], that indicates configuration of L1 based cell DTX/DRX activation/deactivation for each serving cell.
· Adopt the follow TP for TS38.212
Reason for change: Clarify that 2 bits are needed if both cell DTX and cell DRX are configured for a serving cell; otherwise (i.e. only one cell DTX or cell DRX is configured), 1 bit is needed which corresponds to cell DTX or cell DRX configuration activation/deactivation and if not cell DTX and DRX is not configured 0 bits. Clarify that 1 bit for NES mode indication if configured by higher layers. Update RRC parameter names in the specification. |
Summary of change: · update NES-RNTI as cellDTRX-RNTI. · Associate the starting position of a block in DCI format 2_9 with a serving cell. · clarify the bitwidth of dynamic cell DTX/DRX information field in DCI format 2_9. · add NES-mode indication to block definition. |
Consequences if not approved: The starting position and bitwidth of dynamic cell DTX/DRX information field in DCI format 2_9 is unclear. NES-mode indication associated with nesEvent configuration is missing from specification. |
7.3.1.3.10 Format 2_9 DCI format 2_9 is used for activating or de-activating the cell DTX and/or DRX configuration of one or multiple serving cells for one or more UEs and/or to provide NES-mode indication. The following information is transmitted by means of the
DCI format 2_9 with CRC scrambled by - block number 1, block number 2,…, block number N where the starting position of a block associated with a serving cell is determined by the parameter positionInDCI-cellDTRX provided by higher layers for the UE. If
the UE is configured - Cell DTX/DRX indication – - if [cellDTXDRX-L1activation]
is configured, 2
bits if - otherwise 0 - NES-mode indication – 1 bit if nesEvent is configured and the serving cell is Pcell; otherwise, 0 bit.

· Adopt the following TP for TS 38.214:
Reason for change: There is ambiguity on whether the current spec supports sub-configuration level of Part 2 wideband CSI omission. |
Summary of change: Omission of Part 2 wideband CSI when needed, is done as legacy in report level. Only Part subband CSI is dropped in sub-configuration level. |
Consequences if not approved: UE omission behaviour for Part 2 WB CSI is unclear and unnecessarily complicated, if it is interpreted as supported. |
-----------------------------------------------------------Text proposal ----------------------------------------------------------- 5.2.3 CSI reporting using PUSCH <Unchanged parts omitted> When CSI reporting on PUSCH comprises two parts, the UE may omit
a portion of the Part 2 CSI. Omission of Part 2 CSI is according to the
priority order shown in Table 5.2.3-1, where
- For a Reporting Setting for which the CSI-ReportConfig contains a list of sub-configurations provided by [csi-ReportSubConfigList], for a corresponding CSI report which contains one or more CSIs sub-reports, omission of Part 2 subband CSI is done at a sub-configuration level within the same priority level defined by Table 5.2.3-1 where a sub-configuration with an index, provided by [csi-ReportSubConfigID], with lower value has higher priority. <Unchanged parts omitted> -------------------------------------------------------End of Text proposal ------------------------------------------------------ |

times and the CSI-RS ports within the CSI-RS resource are counted <omitted text> |
Agreement
· Adopt the following TP for TS 38.214.
Reason for change: For CPU occupation for SP-CSI report, the current spec only mentioned the triggered sub-configuration, missing the activated sub-configuration. |
Summary of change: Added “activated” to cover the case of SP-CSI on PUCCH |
Consequences if not approved: The CPU occupation for SP-CSI activated on PUCCH is not covered by spec |

From Thursday session
Agreement
· Adopt the following TP for TS 38.213:
Reason for Change: Whether sub-configuration level omission is supported or not for Part 2 CSI is unclear, however it should be supported as agreed in RAN1 and implemented in other specifications. Summary of Change: Sub-configuration level CSI omission for Part 2 CSI is supported. Consequences if not approved: Unclear UE behavior to perform omission of CSI corresponding to a CSI report configuration containing a list of sub-configurations.
9.2.5.2 UE procedure for multiplexing HARQ-ACK/SR/CSI in a PUCCH For a transmission occasion of a single CSI report, a PUCCH resource is provided by pucch-CSI-ResourceList. For a transmission occasion of multiple CSI reports, corresponding PUCCH resources can be provided by multi-CSI-PUCCH-ResourceList. If a UE is provided first and second PUCCH-Config, multi-CSI-PUCCH-ResourceList is provided by the first PUCCH-Config, and PUCCH-ResourceId in pucch-CSI-ResourceList or multi-CSI-PUCCH-ResourceList indicates a corresponding PUCCH resource in PUCCH-Resource provided by the first PUCCH-Config. If a UE is provided only one PUCCH resource set for transmission of HARQ-ACK information in response to PDSCH reception scheduled by a DCI format or in response to a DCI format having associated HARQ-ACK information without scheduling PDSCH reception, the UE does not expect to be provided simultaneousHARQ-ACK-CSI. A UE is configured by maxCodeRate a code rate for multiplexing HARQ-ACK, SR, and CSI report(s) in a PUCCH transmission using PUCCH format 2, PUCCH format 3, or PUCCH format 4. If a UE transmits CSI reports using PUCCH format 2, the UE transmits only wideband CSI for each CSI report [6, TS 38.214]. In the following, a Part 1 CSI report refers either to a CSI report with only wideband CSI or to a Part 1 CSI report with wideband CSI and sub-band CSI. In the following, a Part 2 CSI report refers to a Part 2 CSI sub-report, if a CSI report configuration contains a list of sub-configurations provided by csi-ReportSubConfigList for the Part 2 CSI report [6, TS 38.214].

· Adopt the following TP for TS 38.214:
Reason for Change: The restriction on configuring a list of NZP CSI-RS resource IDs for type 2 SD + PD adaptation is not specified. Summary of Change: For type 2 SD + PD adaptation, the NZP CSI-RS resource list configured for a sub-configuration is identical to or has no intersection with the resource list configured for another sub-configuration within the same CSI report configuration. Consequences if not approved: Arbitrary configuration for a list of NZP CSI-RS resource IDs for type 2 SD + PD adaptation is allowed.

· Reason for change: Ambiguous UE behavior is during resolution of the overlapping among PDSCHs (TS 38.214 clause 5) and determination of whether to receive a SPS PDSCH overlapping with non-active period of cell DTX.’
· Summary of change: the UE first performs determination of whether to receive a SPS PDSCH overlapping with non-active period of cell DTX and then performs resolution of the overlapping among PDSCHs (TS 38.214 clause 5.1).
· Consequences if not approved: Unclear UE behavior on which PDSCH should be received among the overlapping PDSCHs due to cell DTX operation

5.1 UE procedure for receiving the physical downlink shared channel
*** Unchanged text is omitted ***
If more than one PDSCH on a serving cell each without a corresponding PDCCH transmission are in a slot, after resolving overlapping with symbols in the slot indicated as uplink by tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon, or by tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated, or determined as non-active periods of cell DTX, if the serving cell is activated with cell DTX, based on [10, TS38.321], a UE receives one or more PDSCHs without corresponding PDCCH transmissions in the slot as specified below.
- Step 0: set j=0, where j is the number of selected PDSCH(s) for decoding. Q is the set of activated PDSCHs without corresponding PDCCH transmissions within the slot
- Step 1: A UE receives one PDSCH with the lowest configured sps-ConfigIndex within Q, set j=j+1. Designate the received PDSCH as survivor PDSCH.
- Step 2: The survivor PDSCH in step 1 and any other PDSCH(s) overlapping (even partially) with the survivor PDSCH in step 1 are excluded from Q.
- Step 3: Repeat step 1 and 2 until Q is empty or j is equal to the number of unicast/multicast PDSCHs in a slot supported by the UE

· Reasons for change: Unclear UE behaviour if a PUCCH with HARQ-ACK and CSI/SR overlaps with non-active period of cell DRX. Unclear UE behaviour if a PUSCH with HARQ-ACK overlaps with non-active period of cell DRX if the PUSCH is not associated with a corresponding PDCCH.
· Summary of change: UE drops the PUCCH without HARQ-ACK and drops the PUSCH without a corresponding PDCCH if HARQ-ACK is not multiplexed in the PUSCH if cell DRX is activated for a serving cell and the PUCCH or the PUSCH overlaps with the non-active period of the serving cell, respectively.
· Consequences if not adopted: Incomplete specification.

9 UE procedure for reporting control information
*** Unchanged Text Omitted ***
When a UE determines overlapping for PUCCH and/or PUSCH transmissions of the same priority index other than PUCCH transmissions with SL HARQ-ACK reports before considering limitations for UE transmission due to cell DRX operation [11, TS 38.321] or as described in clauses 11.1, 11.1.1, 11.2A, 15 and 17.2 including repetitions if any,
- first, the UE resolves the overlapping for PUCCHs with repetitions as described in clause 9.2.6, if any
- second, the UE resolves the overlapping for PUCCHs without repetitions as described in clauses 9.2.5
- third, the UE resolves the overlapping for PUSCHs and PUCCHs with repetitions as described in clause 9.2.6
- fourth, the UE resolves the overlapping for PUSCHs and PUCCHs without repetitions as is subsequently described in this clause.
After resolving the overlapping for PUCCH and/or PUSCH transmissions and if cell DRX is activated for a serving cell and a PUCCH or PUSCH overlaps with the non-active period of cell DRX of the serving cell, the UE drops the PUCCH, if HARQ-ACK is not multiplexed in the PUCCH, or drops the PUSCH, if HARQ-ACK is not multiplexed in the PUSCH and the PUSCH is without a corresponding PDCCH, respectively.
If a UE
- is provided simultaneousPUCCH-PUSCH and would transmit a PUCCH with a first priority index and PUSCHs with a second priority index that is different than the first priority index, where the PUCCH and the PUSCHs overlap in time on different respective cells
- can simultaneously transmit the PUCCH and the PUSCHs with different priority indexes [18, TS 38.306],
the UE excludes the PUSCHs for resolving the time overlapping between the PUCCH and PUSCHs with different priority indexes, where the timeline conditions for resolving the overlapping PUCCH and PUSCHs are not required for the excluded PUSCHs.
