Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration that indicates to the UE to apply demodulation reference signal (DMRS) bundling to physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmissions. The UE may maintain phase coherence across multiple PUSCH transmissions, to which the DMRS bundling is applied, to enable joint channel estimation across the multiple PUSCH transmissions. The UE may transmit, based at least in part on the configuration, uplink control information (UCI) that includes a coherence indication. The UE may multiplex the UCI with a PUSCH transmission of the multiple PUSCH transmissions to which the DMRS bundling is applied. The coherence indication may indicate whether the PUSCH transmission is coherent with one or more other PUSCH transmissions, of the multiple PUSCH transmissions, transmitted by the UE. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a user equipment (UE) dynamically adjusting a non-access stratum (NAS) timer.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to mechanisms for using block acknowledgments to acknowledge semi-persistently scheduled (SPS) occasions from multiple SPS configurations. An example method generally includes identifying a slot or subslot scheduled for reporting acknowledgment feedback for an SPS physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH). The method identifies that one or more symbols of the identified slot or subslot that are scheduled to transmit a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) containing the acknowledgment feedback are semi-static flexible symbols. The method further monitors for a dynamic slot format indicator (SFI) dynamically configuring one or more of the semi-static flexible symbols of the slot or subslot as downlink, uplink, or flexible. The method then decides whether to report the acknowledgment feedback in the scheduled slot or subslot, in a subsequent slot or subslot, or both, based on the monitoring.

The UE may decode, within a search space of the first search space set, a grant for scheduling the one or more channels of the first priority.

Abstract: A mobile device supports positioning with positioning reference signals (PRS) on multiple beam by dividing the PRS processing into two separate modes, an acquisition mode and a tracking mode. In acquisition mode, the mobile device performs a fast scan of all of the beams from a base station transmitting PRS using less than the full set of resources for the PRS, i.e., less than the full bandwidth and/or less than the full number of repetitions of the PRS. The mobile device may select the best beams to use for positioning, e.g., based on signal strength metric. In tracking mode, the mobile device tracks the PRS from only the selected beams using the full set of resources for the PRS. The mobile device may return to acquisition mode after a predetermined number of positioning occasions or if the selected beams are no longer valid due to movement or change in conditions.
