Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit a capability message indicating a first number of one or more transmit antennas supported by the UE for antenna switching and a second number of ports supported for uplink transmission that exceeds the first number of one or more transmit antennas. The UE may receive, based on the capability message, a sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration indicating a mapping between each SRS resource or SRS resource group and a respective bit sequence of a set of bit sequences. The UE may receive a control message comprising one or more bit sequences of the set of bit sequences indicating one or more SRS resources or an SRS resource group based on the mapping. The UE may transmit one or more SRS signals based on the control message.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration indicating a mapping between a set of multiple subband indices and a set of multiple encoding parameter sets. The UE may apply, at a first distribution matcher, a first encoding parameter set to a first subset of a bit stream. The UE may also apply, at a second distribution matcher, a second encoding parameter set to a second subset of the bit stream. The a first encoding parameter set may be associated with a first subband index and the second encoding parameter set may be associated with a second subband index. The UE may then transmit a first modulated bit stream on a first subband, and a second modulated bit stream on a second subband.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may receive a capability message from a user equipment (UE) based on a number of receive antennas exceeding a number of transmit antennas at the UE. The base station may configure the UE with a mapping between sounding reference signal (SRS) resources and bit sequences, or SRS resource indices (SRIs), based on the capability message. The base station may transmit a control message including one or more SRIs indicating respective SRS resources. The UE may use the one or more SRIs included in a control message from the base station to select respective SRS resources from a resource set. Once the UE selects one or more SRS resources, the UE may transmit one or more SRSs in the SRS resources.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a configuration indicating a set of encoding parameters corresponding to a constellation shaping encoding process. The UE may calculate a number of bits of a first subset of a source bit stream, and the first subset of the source bit stream may include or encompass an input to a distribution matcher. The UE may apply, to the first subset, a distribution matcher parameter based on the set of encoding parameters. The UE may calculate a number of bits of a second subset of the source bit stream, and the second subset of the source bit stream may be concatenated with an output bit stream of the distribution matcher as an input to a channel encoder. The UE may signal the source bit stream to the base station.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a configuration that may identify a set of time and frequency resources for transmission of sounding reference signals, the set of time and frequency resources including a plurality of subsets of time and frequency resources. Each subset of time and frequency resources of the plurality of subsets of time and frequency resources may be associated with a corresponding value of a plurality of values of a partial frequency parameter. The UE may receive control signaling indicating a value of the partial frequency parameter of the plurality of values. The UE may transmit a sounding reference signal on a subset of time and frequency resources of the plurality of subsets of time and frequency resources that corresponds to the value of the partial frequency parameter indicated by the received control signaling.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to modulation methods. One example method includes performing distribution matching (DM) encoding on N1 first bits to obtain N2 first symbols, determining N4 to-be-phase-modulated symbols whose signal powers are equal to a preset signal power from the N2 first symbols, performing phase modulation on the N4 to-be-phase-modulated symbols based on N3 second bits to obtain N4 second symbols, performing binary labeling (BL) encoding on the N4 second symbols and N2-N4 first symbols to obtain N5 BL encoded output bits, performing forward error correction (FEC) encoding on the N5 BL encoded output bits to obtain N6 FEC redundant bits, and performing quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) mapping based on the N6 FEC redundant bits and the N5 BL encoded output bits to obtain N2 target QAM signals.
