  • Publication number: 20240172318
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems, apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for reducing latency associated with performing some operations that use a reference signal. To illustrate, a user equipment (UE) may receive a reference signal and then may receive a message indicating one or more of an update of a transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state of the UE or a change in designation of a path loss reference signal (PL-RS) measured by the UE. If the reference signal is received within a threshold time period of receiving the message (or vice versa), the UE may perform the update or the change in designation of the PL-RS using one or more parameters determined using the reference signal.

  • Publication number: 20240172264
    Abstract: Wireless communications systems may support identification or determination of a common default beam for a component carrier (CC) group (e.g., such that all CCs of a CC group may be associated with a same default beam). For example, a CC group may be configured or established to include one or more CCs (e.g., for carrier aggregation), where each CC group may share a same analog beamformer. As such, a beam (e.g., a default uplink/downlink beam) may be established as default or common across CCs of a CC group (e.g., versus default beams being configured or established for individual CCs). Such an established default beam of a CC group (e.g., a default beam common to all CCs of a CC group) may include or refer to a default downlink shared channel beam, a default sounding reference signal (SRS) beam, a default downlink control channel beam, etc.

  • Publication number: 20240172007
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some wireless communications systems, a base station may transmit sets of network coding encoded packets user equipments (UEs), and each set of network coding encoded packets may be associated with a redundancy overhead. The base station may dynamically identify the redundancy overhead for transmitting sets of network coding encoded packets to each UE based on a failure rate associated with a previous transmission of network coding encoded packets to that UE. For example, the base station may determine a failure rate associated with a transmission of a first set of network coding encoded packets and may identify a redundancy overhead associated with one or more second sets of network coding encoded packets based on the determined failure rate. In some cases, the base station may identify different redundancy overheads for transmissions of network coding encoded packets to different UEs.

  • Publication number: 20240162623
    Abstract: The disclosed apparatus may include an antenna radiating structure that includes an active transparent mesh portion as well as a non-transparent antenna radiator portion. By combining transparent metal mesh and non-transparent metallic film into the antenna radiating structure, the disclosed apparatus results in improved radiation efficiency. Moreover, when overlaid on a transparent lens (such as with a pair of augmented reality glasses), the antenna radiating structure leaves the optical transparency of the lens largely unaffected due to the placement of the non-transparent metallic film. Various other implementations are also disclosed.
