https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/29_series/29.835/29835-h10.zip
The present document studies alternative proposals for the port number allocations to the new 3GPP interfaces and applications. The study will focus on, but is not limited to following three alternatives: - 3GPP allocating port numbers from the Dynamic/Private Port number range [49152 - 65535]. See clause 6 in IETF RFC 6335 [2]; - Operators allocating port numbers from either the User Port number range [1024-49151] or the Dynamic/Private Port number range [49152 - 65535]. See clause 6 in IETF RFC 6335 [2]; - DNS based solution, where port numbers are allocated from the User Port number range [1024-49151] or the Dynamic/Private Port number range [49152 - 65535]. See clause 6 in IETF RFC 6335 [2]. The primary focus of this study is on protocols only used for network internal services, i.e. when the protocol is only used in a single network with no interconnection with other networks or the public Internet. The solutions proposed in the study however could also be used in scenarios in which the protocol is used across multiple networks, e.g. in roaming case or between the RAN and the core network supported by different operator networks.

At the RAN#86 meeting, a new Study Item was approved for Internet of Things Non Terrestrial Network (IoT NTN) and revised in RAN#91 [4]. There was an email discussion on [91E][42][NTN_IoT_Roadmap] In RAN#91 with moderator summary and final proposal for GTW input in [5]. In RAN#91-e GTW session, the Chairman endorsed a Way Forward Proposal in [6] on email discussion on [50][New_proposals_approval]. This included guidance from RAN Chairman for NTN NR and NTN IoT as follows - RAN#92E (June) to finalize the scope and project plan to deliver the essential minimum functionality of both NTN NR and NTN IoT (both NB-IoT and eMTC) within the existing TU allocations - Detailed scoping exercise (NTN NR WID revision, NTN IoT WID approval) to be undertaken at RAN#92E (June) The objectives for this document are, based on the outcomes of the Release-17 NR NTN WI [7] and Release-16 TR 38.821 [8], to study a set of necessary features/adaptations enabling the operation of the IoT NTN for 3GPP Release 17 with a priority on satellite access. The first objective of this Study is to identify scenarios applicable to NB-IoT/eMTC [RAN1, RAN2], including: - Bands of interest in sub 6 GHz - Device type with PC3 or PC5 (LEO and GEO) - Satellite constellation orbit LEO and GEO - Transparent payload. - Link budget NOTE 1: This first objective will be based on the scenarios documented in TR 38.821. NOTE 2: UE mobility assumptions follow terrestrial NB-IoT/eMTC assumptions. The second objective is, for the above identified scenarios, to study and recommend necessary changes to support NB-IoT and eMTC over satellite, reusing as much as possible the conclusions of the studies performed for NR NTN in TR38.821. This objective will address the following items: - Aspects related to random access procedure/signals [RAN1, RAN2] - Mechanisms for time/frequency adjustment including Timing Advance, and UL frequency compensation indication [RAN1, RAN2] - Timing offset related to scheduling and HARQ-ACK feedback [RAN1, RAN2] - Aspects related to HARQ operation [RAN2, RAN1] - General aspects related to timers (e.g. SR, DRX, etc.) [RAN2] - RAN2 aspects related to idle mode and connected mode mobility [RAN2] - RLF-based for NB-IoT - Handover-based for eMTC - System information enhancements [RAN2] - Tracking area enhancements [RAN2] NOTE 3: GNSS capability in the UE is taken as a working assumption in this study for both NB-IoT and eMTC devices. With this assumption, UE can estimate and pre-compensate timing and frequency offset with sufficient accuracy for UL transmission. Simultaneous GNSS and NTN NB-IoT/eMTC operation is not assumed. Recommendations for NB-IoT and recommendations for eMTC will be documented in the conclusions.

NOTE 2: The frequency range in band n28 is restricted for this band combination to 728 - 738 MHz for the UL and 783 - 793 MHz for the DL. This restriction applies also for these band combinations when applicable EN-DC configuration is part of a higher order EN-DC configuration. NOTE 3: Only single switched UL is supported. NOTE 4: The implementation with 4 antennas is targeted for FWA form factor for this band combination. NOTE 5: The minimum requirements apply only when there is non-simultaneous Tx/Rx operation between E-UTRA and NR carriers. This restriction applies also for these carriers when applicable EN-DC configuration is part of a higher order EN-DC configuration. NOTE 6: The minimum requirements for intra-band non-contiguous EN-DC apply. When UE capability interBandContiguousMRDC is indicated, the minimum requirements for intra-band-contiguous EN-DC also should be met in addtion to intra-band non-contiguous EN-DC. The intra-band requirements also apply for these carriers when applicable EN-DC configuration is a subset of a higher order EN-DC configuration. NOTE 7: The combination is not used alone as fall back mode of other band combinations in which UL in Band 42 or Band 48 is not used. NOTE 8: The minimum requirements for inter-band EN-DC apply when the maximum power spectral density imbalance between downlink carriers is within 6 dB. The power spectral density imbalance condition also applies for these carriers when applicable EN-DC configuration is a subset of a higher order EN-DC configuration. NOTE 9: The combination is not used alone as fallback mode of other band combinations in which UL in Band 2 is not used. NOTE 10: The minimum requirements for inter-band EN-DC apply when the maximum power spectral density imbalance between downlink carriers is within 6 dB. The power spectral density imbalance condition also applies for these carriers when applicable EN-DC configuration is a subset of a higher order EN-DC configuration.

In order to support wide range of services, 5G NR system aims to be flexible enough to meet the connectivity requirements of a range of existing and future (yet unknown) services to be deployable in an efficient manner. NR considers supporting potential use of frequency range up to 100 GHz [1]. NR specifications that have been developed in Rel-15 and Rel-16 define operation for frequencies up to 52.6 GHz, where all physical layer channels, signals, procedures, and protocols are designed to be optimized for uses under 52.6 GHz. However, frequencies above 52.6 GHz are faced with more difficult challenges, such as higher phase noise, larger propagation loss due to high atmospheric absorption, lower power amplifier efficiency, and strong power spectral density regulatory requirements in unlicensed bands, compared to lower frequency bands. Additionally, the frequency ranges above 52.6 GHz potentially contain larger spectrum allocations and larger bandwidths that are not available for bands lower than 52.6 GHz. As an initial effort to enable and optimize 3GPP NR system for operation in above 52.6 GHz, 3GPP RAN has studied requirements for NR beyond 52.6GHz up to 114.25GHz including global spectrum availability and regulatory requirements (including channelization and licensing regimes), potential use cases and deployment scenarios, and NR system design requirements and considerations on top of regulatory requirements [2]. The potential use cases identified in the study include high data rate eMBB, mobile data offloading, short range high-data rate D2D communications, broadband distribution networks, integrated access backhaul (IAB), factory automation, industrial IoT (IIoT), wireless display transfer, augmented reality (AR)/virtual reality (VR) wearables, intelligent transport systems (ITS) and V2X, data center inter-rack connectivity, smart grid automation, private networks, and support of high positioning accuracy. The use cases span over several deployment scenarios identified in the study. The deployment scenarios include, but not limited to, indoor hotspot, dense urban, urban micro, urban macro, rural, factor hall, and indoor D2D scenarios. The study also identified several system design requirements around waveform, MIMO operation, device power consumption, channelization, bandwidth, range, availability, connectivity, spectrum regime considerations, and others. Among the frequencies of interest, frequencies between 52.6 GHz and 71 GHz are especially interesting relatively in the short term because of their proximity to sub-52.6 GHz for which the current NR system is optimized and the imminent commercial opportunities for high data rate communications, e.g., unlicensed spectrum but also licensed spectrum between 57 GHz and 71 GHz. Therefore, it would be beneficial to make a study focused on feasibility of using existing waveforms and required changes for frequencies between 52.6 GHz and 71 GHz, so as to take advantage of imminent commercial opportunities for the specific frequency regime by minimizing the specification burden and maximizing the leverage of FR2 based implementations.

The present technical report documents the Phase I study outcome on inter-user interference suppression for NR MU-MIMO and techniques to cope with LTE CRS interference for NR UE, with the detailed objectives as follows:、 • MMSE-IRC receiver for suppressing intra-cell inter-user interference - Phase I: Evaluate the performance under practical MU-MIMO interference profile for the candidate reference receiver. ∘ Identify practical MU-MIMO interference modelling methodology ∘ Reference receiver: MMSE-IRC receiver. Use the DMRS-based interference covariance estimation method as a starting point ∘ Prioritize slot-based transmission scenario • Evaluate techniques to cope with CRS interference in scenarios with overlapping spectrum for LTE and NR - Candidate reference receiver to enable neighboring cell CRS-IM ∘ The performance benefit of neighboring cell LTE CRS-IM over the existing rate matching solutions specified in Rel-15 and Rel-16 shall be evaluated. ∘ Feasibility of the considered solution regarding NR PDSCH processing timeline need to be checked. ∘ Priority will be given to solutions not having RAN1 specification impact. - Synchronous network scenario is prioritized. As second priority, RAN4 could evaluate the feasibility and usefulness of the asynchronous network scenario and specify if feasible and useful. - 15 kHz SCS for NR is prioritized. RAN4 should evaluate the feasibility and usefulness of 30 kHz SCS for scenarios with LTE and NR deployed in neighboring BSs/areas and specify if feasible and useful.
