  • Patent number: 11910357
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure include methods and devices for informing a base station of autonomously selected SL resources to allow the base station to adjust the DL transmission to mitigate the degradation of the reception of a DL transmission due to self-interference that overlaps with a SL transmission. A device may be configured to select resources for a SL transmission and to transmit, in an UL transmission to a base station, an indication of the resources selected for the SL transmission. A base station may be configured to receive, in an UL transmission, an indication of resources selected for a SL transmission from a UE, and to transmit, based on the indication of the resources selected for the SL transmission, at least one DL transmission that overlaps in time with the SL transmission.

  • Patent number: 11902816
    Abstract: In a wireless network, a base station may configure a victim user equipment (UE) experiencing interference with a periodic measurement resource using Layer 3 (L3) signaling, and the UE may report cross-link interference (CLI) measurements to the base station using L3 messages. However, using L3 signaling to configure interference measurement and reporting may result in an inflexible interference measurement configuration and a long latency to report CLI and/or self-interference feedback. Furthermore, although Layer 1 and/or Layer 2 (L1/L2) CLI reporting may be more suitable to track and adapt to dynamic changes in interference conditions, L1/L2 signaling increases control signaling and CLI management overhead at the base station. Accordingly, some aspects described herein relate to an adaptive L3 CLI measurement and reporting framework, where L3 messages may include one or more adaptive fields to support flexibility in configuring CLI measurement and/or CLI reporting parameters.

  • Publication number: 20240048299
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a message indicating a frequency hopping configuration for repetitions of an uplink message that are to be transmitted via a set of resources, including one or more resources that support full-duplex communications. The UE may determine that some resources of the set of resources are available for transmitting the repetitions in a time domain. The UE may use a frequency hopping pattern to transmit the uplink message and the repetitions of the uplink message, where the frequency hopping pattern may include two or more frequency hops and based on the available resources and the frequency hopping configuration. In some cases, the UE may determine that some resources of the set of resources are unavailable in a frequency domain, and as such, the UE may drop respective transmissions of the uplink messages on the unavailable resources.

  • Publication number: 20240048342
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit control signaling scheduling a downlink transmission to a user equipment (UE) across multiple bandwidth parts (BWPs) and an indication of a code block group (CBG)-based mapping for the downlink transmission. A transport block (TB) of the downlink transmission may include multiple code block groups (CBGs) that are mapped across the BWPs. The UE may monitor for the TB across the BWPs based on the CBG mapping. For example, the UE may determine the CBGs are mapped across different BWPs based on the cross-BWP CBG mapping. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may determine each CBG is mapped within one BWP based on the cross-BWP CBG BWPs mapping. The UE may calculate a TB size based on available time and frequency resources and may decode the TB based on calculating the TB size and the cross-BWP CBG mapping.
