Abstract: A UE, as a part of a RACH communication procedure, may transmit a first sequence within a first set of resources having a first SCS and a second sequence within a second set of resources having a second SCS greater than the first SCS. The second sequence is transmitted with a cyclic prefix greater than inverse of the first SCS divided by a sequence length of the first sequence. The first sequence is a first PRACH preamble. The second sequence may be a second PRACH preamble, an SRS sequence, or DMRS. The UE may repeat the transmission of the first sequence for a first number of times and repeat the transmission of the second sequence for a second number of times independent of the first number.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a user equipment (UE) may identify an energy per resource element (EPRE) ratio between a synchronization signal block (SSB) symbol containing a primary synchronization signal (PSS) and an SSB symbol containing a secondary synchronization signal (SSS), a physical broadcast channel (PBCH), or both, based on an operating band for the UE, a bandwidth of the SSB symbol containing the PSS and the SSB symbol containing the SSB, the PBCH, or both. The EPRE ratio may be based on maximum regulatory equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) limits, maximum regulatory power spectral density (PSD) limits for the band, or both. The EPRE ratios may be different for different SSB symbols, when different SSB symbols have different bandwidths. A base station may configure and transmit, and a UE may receive, the SSB according to the identified EPRE ratio.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may identify, for a user equipment (UE), a configuration for receiving a set of downlink control information (DCI) messages on one or more layers of a set of layers of a downlink shared channel. The base station may transmit, to the UE, a first DCI message in a downlink control channel, where the first DCI message may schedule resources of the downlink shared channel for the set of piggybacking DCI messages. The UE may receive the first DCI message and identify the configuration for receiving the set of DCI messages on the one or more layers of the downlink shared channel. The UE may receive, from the base station, the set of DCI messages on the one or more layers of the downlink shared channel based on the identified configuration.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to techniques for mitigating timing resolution limitations due to synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) with low subcarrier spacing (SCS). An example method by a user equipment (UE) generally includes detecting a SSB; determining a start time of a control resource set (CORESET) associated with the detected SSB, wherein the start time of the CORESET is aligned with a boundary of a symbol having a larger cyclic prefix (CP) than one or more other symbols in a same half-subframe; and monitoring the CORESET for a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmission.

The UE may receive, from the base station, the second downlink control information message based on the first scrambling sequence, the second downlink control information message scheduling second resources of the downlink shared channel for a data message. The UE may receive, from the base station, the data message in the second resources scheduled by the second downlink control information message.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which control resources may be identified, and a data transmission may be rate-matched around the one or more control channels of multiple UEs or at multiple aggregation levels in the control resources. A user equipment (UE) may identify a search space for a first control channel, and the rate-matching of the data transmission may be performed based on a location of the search space in the control resources. In some cases, a base station may provide a mapping of resources (e.g., a bitmap) within the control resources that are occupied, which may be used for rate-matching.

Abstract: Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) numerologies that maintain symbol boundary alignment while distributing excess cyclic prefixes (CPs) among OFDM symbols. Communication is established using a first sub-carrier spacing (SCS) and a first OFDM numerology, such as an exemplary numerology that distributes excess CP duration among a set of symbols that occupy a time interval within or equal to a corresponding time interval of a symbol of a second OFDM numerology with a second lower SCS. The first SCS may be, e.g., 960 kHz. The second SCS may be, e.g., 120 kHz. Another exemplary OFDM numerology described herein distributes the excess CP as prefix and postfix portions to one of the symbols, such as the first symbol of a set. Communication then proceeds using the first OFDM numerology at the first SCS and, in illustrative examples, using the second OFDM numerology at the second SCS or other OFDM numerologies at other SCSs.

Abstract: A scheduling entity can schedule regular or periodic control resources (CORESETs) that are relatively sparse in the time domain compared to dynamic CORESETS. Sparsely scheduled regular CORESETs can reduce the overhead incurred by a user equipment for monitoring the control channels in the CORESETs or search spaces. When the network has a burst of data to send, the scheduling entity can use downlink control information (DCI) piggybacked in physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) resources to schedule dynamic CORESETs between the regular CORESETs. The dynamic CORESETs can provide resources for a PDSCH and/or physical downlink shared channel (PUSCH).

Abstract: A non-geosynchronous satellite system, where each satellite has an antenna (perhaps a multi-element antenna) to form a beam pattern comprising a set of beams in the footprint of the satellite, where in one implementation each beam is substantially elliptical in shape having a minor axis and a major axis, where the minor axes are substantially collinear and the major axes are substantially oriented east to west. For a satellite, power is reduced or turned off for a subset of the set of beams, wherein each beam in the subset is reduced at or below a corresponding power level such that when a beam is powered above its corresponding power level an equivalent power flux-density (EPFD) exceeds a limit at some point on the Earth's surface.
