Cell reselection and measurement in a high-speed mode in wireless communications

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media storing instructions, that upon execution on a device, cause the device to perform operations comprising:

• determining that an operational mode of the device is a high-speed mode that supports a travel speed larger than a speed threshold;
• determining, based on the high-speed mode, a time period associated with cell reselection in a frequency range 2 (FR2) band, wherein the time period is defined based on a beam-sweeping capability of the device in the FR2 band and includes a measurement period that is defined for the FR2 band and that is associated with a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle length;
• detecting, within the time period, a synchronization signal at the FR2 band;
• and
• completing a cell reselection procedure based on the synchronization signal.

A device comprising:

• processing circuitry configured to:
• determine that an operational mode of the device is a high-speed mode that supports a travel speed larger than a speed threshold;
• detect a synchronization signal at a frequency range 2 (FR2) band within a time period that is associated with cell reselection in the FR2 band or with a measurement to be performed on the synchronization signal, wherein the time period is associated with the high-speed mode, is defined based on a beam-sweeping capability of the device in the FR2 band, and includes a measurement period that is defined for the FR2 band and that is associated with a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle length;
• and
• complete a cell reselection procedure based on the synchronization signal or report the measurement performed on the synchronization signal.
