Abstract
Various examples pertaining to enhancements for faster bandwidth part (BWP) switching in mobile communications are described. An apparatus, implementable in a user equipment (UE), receives a trigger from a network node. In response to receiving the trigger, the UE performs BWP switching with a restriction on software (SW) or radio frequency (RF) reconfiguration such that the BWP switching is faster with the restriction than without the restriction. The UE then performs a transmission to the network node after the BWP switching.
