Abstract

Conventional TIMD prediction mode derivation has the problem wherein a large amount of computation is required to derive a template image and calculate costs. In the present invention, a TIMD prediction mode derivation unit that, in intra prediction, receives the input of a plurality of prediction mode candidates and selects a prediction mode has a template prediction image derivation unit for generating a prediction image, a template cost derivation unit, and a candidate selection unit. The candidate selection unit narrows down the number of prediction mode candidates on the basis of a cost derived by the template cost derivation unit. A candidate update unit updates the prediction mode candidate list narrowed down by the candidate selection unit and increases the width of a template region. In the TIMD prediction mode derivation unit, multiple iterations of a prediction mode derivation process are performed, and a final prediction mode is selected.

A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for performing a System Information Block Type 1 (SIB1) request operation is provided. The method receives, from a first cell, a Wake-Up Signal (WUS) configuration. The method transmits, to a Network Energy Saving (NES) cell, an Uplink (UL) WUS based on the WUS configuration to request an On-Demand (OD)-SIB1. Upon determining that a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) has been successfully decoded with a first Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI), the method receives the OD-SIB1 based on the PDCCH scrambled by the first RNTI. Upon determining that the PDCCH has been unsuccessfully decoded with the first RNTI, the method attempts to decode the PDCCH with a second RNTI. Upon determining that the PDCCH has been successfully decoded with the second RNTI, the method receives a Random Access Response (RAR) based on the PDCCH scrambled by the second RNTI.

Abstract

A network node transmits, to a user equipment (UE), first and second synchronization signal block (SSB) measurement timing configurations (SMTCs) and several SSB indices Each of the first or second SMTCs includes several SMTC occasions. The SSB indices indicate for which SSBs to perform measurements during each SMTC occasion. The first SMTC includes a first group of SMTC occasions. The second SMTC includes a subset of the first group SMTC occasions. The network node transmits, to the UE, a set of one or more key performance indicators (KPIs) based on which the UE determines which of the first or second SMTCs to apply.

A UE receives, from a network node, a configuration message that configures the UE to determine the applicability of one or more functionalities of the UE. The configuration message includes a network side associated ID that quantifies one or more network side conditions. The UE determines a UE side associated ID that quantifies a first set of aspects of the UE. The UE determines the applicability of a particular functionality of the UE based on the network side associated ID and a UE side associated ID determined for the particular functionality. The UE determines, based on a second set of aspects of the UE, a stability index and transmits the UE side associated ID, the particular functionality, and the stability index to the network node. The UE side associated ID and the stability index are used to determine whether or not to immediately activate or deactivate the particular functionality.

Abstract

A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for performing a Layer1/Layer2 Triggered Mobility (LTM) operation is provided. The method receives, from a Base Station (BS), a first Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) including a first Timing Advance (TA) value for a first CLTM candidate cell. The method stores the first TA value for the first CLTM candidate cell in response to receiving the first MAC CE. The method starts or restarts a first timer that is associated with the first CLTM candidate cell in response to receiving the first MAC CE. The method considers the first TA value for the first CLTM candidate cell as valid until the first timer expires.

Abstract

A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for performing Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS) measurement reporting for Layer 1/Layer 2 (L1/L2) triggered mobility (LTM) is provided. The method receives, from a serving cell, an LTM measurement configuration including a Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) resource set and a CSI-RS resource set. The method receives a report configuration associated with the SSB resource set. The method activates the CSI-RS resource set for LTM measurement in response to receiving a dynamic indication or in response to determining that a specific condition is satisfied. The method starts to measure CSI-RS resources associated with the CSI-RS resource set in response to activating the CSI-RS resource set. The method transmits, to the serving cell or a target cell of an LTM operation, a measurement report associated with the activated CSI-RS resource set based on the report configuration.

A device may be configured to signal a cross-component adaptive loop filter coefficients. In one example, a device may be configured to signal cross-component adaptive loop filter coefficients for a number of cross-component filters for a chroma component using a continuous Huffman coded bit string. A device may be configured to parse a continuous bit string and calculate filter coefficient values for filter coefficients for each of a number of cross-component filters by applying a Huffman decoding process.
