  • Publication number: 20240179701
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may identify a maximum transmission power for an uplink transmission on a first cell of a first cell group (CG) based on a direction of communications (e.g., uplink, downlink, or flexible) with a separate cell of a second CG during a same duration of the uplink transmission and within a same first frequency range, where the direction of communications is either an actual direction or an assumed direction. The UE may receive an uplink grant scheduling the uplink transmission during a symbol and within the first frequency range, determine the maximum transmission power for the UE based on the direction of communications for the separate cell during the symbol and within the first frequency range, and subsequently transmit the uplink transmission in accordance with the maximum transmission power.

  • Publication number: 20240172263
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a message indicating one or more communication patterns from a base station. The one or more communication patterns may indicate to the UE to adjust one or more parameters for transmitting an uplink communication during a set of time resources, a set of beams, a set of ports, or any combination thereof. During the resources indicated in the one or more communication patterns, the base station may estimate a cross link interference channel between the base station and a second base station. The one or more communication patterns may indicate a hopping pattern for each subband of a bandwidth part. The base station may configure the UE with a timing advance based on the message.

  • Publication number: 20240163800
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. For instance, a wireless device (e.g., abase station, a user equipment (UE)) may transmit a wake-up message including an indicator of whether an on duration of a discontinuous reception cycle is associated with harvesting energy from a signal transmitted during the on duration. The wireless device may transmit the signal during the on duration based on the wake-up message. In some examples, the UE may determine, from the indicator, whether to harvest energy, decode data or both during the on duration. If both harvesting energy and decoding data, the UE may harvest the energy and decode the data concurrently for at least a portion of the on duration. Additionally, or alternatively, the UE may harvest the energy during a first portion of the on duration and may decode data during a second portion of the on duration.

  • Publication number: 20240155629
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Wireless communications systems may employ one or more scheduling constraints to support efficient utilization of techniques for intra-device handling of overlapping scheduled uplink transmissions (e.g., intra-device dynamic resource cancelation and multiplexing) as well as inter-device handling of overlapping scheduled uplink transmissions (e.g., inter-device dynamic resource cancelation and multiplexing). Scheduling constraints may define how a device may apply intra-device and inter-device multiplexing and cancelation rules for various scenarios. For example, a device may apply intra-UE cancelation rules before inter-device cancelation rules. In some examples, later-received grants or uplink preemption indications (ULPIs) may not change a device's previously established decision to drop an uplink transmission.

A user equipment (UE) may monitor a set of frequencies in a frequency band for a synchronization signal block (SSB) according to an initial channel raster. The initial channel raster may be associated with an initial cell or an initial base station. The UE may receive an indication of one or more frequencies for an updated channel raster associated with another cell or another base station. The initial channel raster and the updated channel raster may be different. The UE may monitor for another SSB according to the updated channel raster, which may include additional frequencies within a same frequency band or a different frequency band.

  • Publication number: 20240137180
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a first user equipment (UE) may determine that a resource pool for positioning (RPP) from a predefined plurality of RPPs should be reserved, and transmit, to at least one other UE, a reservation message indicating reservation of a RPP from the predefined plurality of RPPs. The RPP may be reserved for use by the first UE or, if the first UE is a relay UE, for use by a remote UE served by the relay UE. The reservation message may be broadcast, groupcast, multicast, etc. In response to receiving the reservation message indicating reservation of a RPP from a predefined plurality of RPPs, the at least on other UE may modify an intended transmission to reduce interference during the reserved RPP.

  • Publication number: 20240113823
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A relay user equipment (UE) may have a sidelink connection established with each UE of a group of UEs. The group of UEs may be configured with a periodic set of sidelink resources for a reference signal measurement associated with reference signals. Each UE of the group may be configured with a periodicity for the sidelink resources, an initial offset in a first instance of the sidelink resources, and a time-domain variation associated with the reference signals to change the offset across instances of the reference signal resource. The relay UE and the UEs of the group may communicate reference signals over the periodic set of sidelink resources according to the time-domain variation associated with the reference signals.

  • Publication number: 20240106601
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. To support sidelink coherency management, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a sidelink reference signal to a second UE on an active bandwidth part (BWP) or on a first component carrier (CC), the sidelink reference signal associated with a subsequent transmission of a sidelink message on the active BWP or on the first CC. The UE or the second UE may determine whether the UE switches to a second active BWP or transmits a second sidelink message on a second CC prior to transmitting the sidelink message. Additionally, or alternatively, the UE or the second UE may determine whether the UE switches between full-duplex mode and/or a half-duplex mode prior to or concurrent with transmitting the sidelink message. Based on the determination, the UE may transmit the sidelink message according to a first set of coherency transmission characteristics.

  • Publication number: 20240098485
    Abstract: The techniques described herein may provide for sub-slot based physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetition (i.e., back-to-back PUSCH repetition within a slot) according to user equipment (UE) capability. A UE may employ uplink data repetition capability reporting for base station scheduling of uplink data repetition and base station management of the number of transport blocks (TBs) that a UE supports (e.g., processes and transmits for uplink) on a per-slot basis. According to the techniques described herein, a UE may indicate whether it supports mini-slot repetition (e.g., for ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC), enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), or both) via an uplink data repetition capability report. The uplink data repetition capability report may further indicate a maximum number of supported repetitions per TB, a number of supported TBs per slot, etc., such that a base station may configure or schedule PUSCH repetition based on the UE's reported capability.
