  • Patent number: 11963239
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to techniques for signaling a new data indicator (NDI) and/or redundancy version (RV) for physical uplink/downlink shared channel (PxSCH) transmissions scheduled by a multi-PxSCH downlink control information (DCI) grant. In some cases, these techniques may be used even when a scheduled PxSCH transmission is invalid. In some cases, a number of bits in an NDI field of the DCI corresponds to a number of PxSCHs scheduled by the multi-PxSCH DCI grant. In some cases, a number of bits in an RV field of the DCI corresponds the number of PxSCHs scheduled by the multi-PxSCH DCI grant.

  • Patent number: 11963190
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a base station may configure a user equipment (UE) with a control resource set (CORESET) with multiple transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states. The UE may determine TCI state configurations for one or more search space sets associated with the CORESET, where different search space sets associated with the CORESET may have different TCI state configurations. For example, each search space set may be associated with a first TCI state of the CORESET, a second TCI state of the CORESET, or both. The UE may monitor for downlink control information (DCI) messages in physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates of the search space sets according to respective TCI state configurations for the search space sets. Such a configuration may flexibly support a base station transmitting DCI using different TCI state configurations in PDCCH candidates of a single CORESET.
