  • Patent number: 12659829
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for a central unit (CU) and a distributed unit (DU) to communicate information for a network energy savings (NES) related conditional handover (CHO). For example, the CU, which may configure one or more user equipments (UEs) for the CHO, may indicate which UEs are configured to the DU, which may serve the UEs via Layer-1 (L1) signaling. The CU may further indicate which of the configured UEs are to perform the NES related CHO, which may be determined according to measurement reports from the configured UEs. In some examples, the DU may trigger the NES related CHO for UEs associated with measurement reports that satisfy an NES-specific threshold value, which may support the CU and the DU transitioning to the NES mode.

  • Patent number: 12658992
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to the generation of channel state reports and precoding a wireless transmission based on frequency division duplex (FDD) reciprocity. A base station (BS) uses at least two precoders to transmit signals to A user equipment (UE). The UE generates a set of channel state reports, in which the UE transmits a first set of channel coefficients using a first timing, a set of port attributes using a second timing, and a second set of channel coefficients using a third timing. The first set of channel coefficients correspond to a first precoded portion of the wireless transmission, and the set of port attributes and the second set of channel coefficients correspond to a second portion of the wireless transmission. The BS modifies at least one of the precoders based on the channel state reports. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

  • Patent number: 12659952
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) transmitting feedback according to a codebook size, where the codebook size is determined according to a quantity of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring occasions (PMOs) that occur before a feedback slot for transmitting the codebook. The UE may generate feedback according to a codebook that includes an entry corresponding to each PMO, which may indicate the feedback associated with the corresponding PMO. For example, if the UE receives a downlink control information (DCI) message during a PMO, the UE may set a corresponding feedback bit according to a decoding result of a transmission scheduled by the DCI.

  • Patent number: 12659979
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for determining whether to drop an additional signal at an edge interlaced resource block (IRB) of a common interlace. A user equipment (UE) may transmit additional signals via IRBs of the common interlace to improve an occupied channel bandwidth (OCB) of a feedback transmission and may drop one or more additional signals that are proximate (e.g., in frequency) to feedback indications of a configured interlace. To ensure the OCB of the transmission satisfies an OCB threshold, the UE may determine whether to drop an additional signal at an edge IRB, despite the edge IRB being proximate to a feedback indication, according to one or more rules that may be specific to edge IRBs.

  • Patent number: 12659094
    Abstract: Aspects relate to multi-link communication. In some examples, a communication frame carries a multi-link information element (ML IE). The ML IE includes a bitmap and one or more information sub-elements. In some examples, the bitmap indicates the links of a set of radio links to which the information sub-elements apply. In some examples, a frame may carry multiple ML IEs. In some examples, different ML IEs in the same frame may include the same bitmap, where the different ML IEs may carry different information sub-elements for the radio links indicated by the bitmap. In some examples, an ML IE serves to indicate that information sub-elements that are located in the frame body of the frame at a location that precedes the ML IE in the frame body apply to different radio links than the radio links indicated by the bitmap of the ML IE.
