The UE may transmit the direct link synchronization signal block on the number of resources.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. A transmitter node and a relay node transmit, to a base station, feedback related to complex channel estimates associated with beam pairs providing viable paths for a first link between the transmitter node and the base station, a second link between the relay node and the base station, and a third link between the transmitter node and the relay node. The transmitter node transmits a signal to the base station using a transmit beam associated with a first beam pair and to the relay node using a transmit beam associated with a second beam pair. The base station receives the signal from the transmitter node and an estimate of the signal from the relay node via a receive beam configured based at least in part on the complex channel estimates included in the feedback. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A base station may identify two (or more) beamforming directions associated with simultaneous communications to a set of receivers. Each receiver may be associated with a different one of the two beamforming directions. The base station may schedule resources for simultaneous communications with the set of receivers based on the identified two beamforming directions. The base station may schedule simultaneous transmissions to the set of receivers using the scheduled resources.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In some wireless communications systems, a transmitting device may identify a Radio Link Control (RLC) service data unit (SDU) to be transmitted to a receiving device. In some cases, the transmitting device may not have access to sufficient resources to transmit the entire RLC SDU. As such, the transmitting device may segment the RLC SDU into RLC SDU segments, and the transmitting device may transmit the RLC SDU segments to the receiving device. If an RLC layer at the receiving device receives one or more RLC SDU segments out of sequence, the RLC layer may initiate a reassembly (or reordering) timer. The RLC layer may reassemble the successfully received RLC SDU segments to be passed to upper layers. Once the timer expires, the RLC layer may declare that the missing RLC SDU segments are lost.

Abstract: The disclosure describes techniques for a self-test of a graphics processing unit (GPU) independent of instructions from another processing device. The GPU may perform the self-test in response to a determination that the GPU enters an idle mode. The self-test may be based on information indicating a safety level, where the safety level indicates how many faults in circuits or memory blocks of the GPU need to be detected.

A first method includes monitoring, by a first wireless device, at least one predetermined symbol period of a subframe for an indication that a second wireless device has obtained access to a shared radio frequency spectrum; determining a starting symbol for a transmission by the second wireless device over the shared radio frequency spectrum based on detecting the indication; and receiving the transmission by the second wireless device over the shared radio frequency spectrum based on the determined starting symbol.

Abstract: In multi-beam communication, the UE may assist in the scheduling of beams utilized during the multi-beam communication by improving the manner in which the quality of the beam is reported to the network. The apparatus may measure a signal received from a base station on at least one beam. The apparatus may detect a triggering event for providing CSI for the at least one beam. The apparatus may transmit an uplink transmission comprising a CSI report in response to detecting the triggering event. The apparatus may receive an uplink request from a UE for providing CSI for at least one beam. The apparatus may transmit an indication scheduling a CSI report in response to the uplink request. The apparatus may receive an uplink transmission from the UE comprising the CSI report for the at least one beam.

Abstract: Synchronous communications mode detection is disclosed for unlicensed spectrum communications. To detect synchronous mode communications, an observing node monitors on-off transitions of communication transmissions on a shared communication spectrum. The observing node detects the on-off transition spacing of the on-off transitions over a sliding window of a detection period duration. The node may determine the number of candidate synchronous on-off transition spacings of the detected on-off transition spacings that are equal to an integer multiple of a synchronization period. If the number of candidate synchronous on-off transition spacings exceeds a threshold value the observing node will declare detection of a synchronous operation mode of the shared communication spectrum.

Abstract: A method of generating precise and PVT-stable time delay or frequency using CMOS circuits is disclosed. In some implementations, the method includes providing a reference voltage using a resistive module at a positive input terminal of an operational amplifier, coupling gates of a pair of p-type metal oxide semiconductor (pMOS) transistors and a compensation capacitor to an output terminal of the operational amplifier to generate a first bias signal, and coupling a pair of n-type metal oxide semiconductor (nMOS) transistors to a negative terminal of the operational amplifier to generate a second bias signal at the negative terminal, wherein the pair of nMOS transistors is substantially the same as a pair of nMOS transistors in the CMOS delay circuit.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to techniques for encoding and decoding bits of information using cyclic redundancy check (CRC) concatenated polar encoding and decoding. The CRC concatenated polar encoding techniques may avoid transmission of dummy bits. A method generally includes obtaining the bits of information to be transmitted. The method includes performing CRC outer encoding of the bits of information using an even-weighted generator polynomial to produce CRC encoded bits. The method includes performing polar inner encoding of the CRC encoded bits to generate a codeword. The method includes discarding a first code bit at a beginning of the codeword. The shortened codeword is transmitted over a wireless medium. In another method, bit-level scrambling is performed on the CRC encoded bits before the polar encoding to avoid generating a dummy bit. In another method, only odd-weighted generator polynomials are selected to avoid generating the dummy bit.

Abstract: A video coder determines a boundary luma value and derives a chroma value that corresponds to the boundary luma value. The video coder may derive a first prediction model and a second prediction model based on the derived chroma value. The video coder may use the first prediction model to determine a first set of predicted chroma samples of a prediction block for the current block. The first set of predicted chroma samples corresponds to the luma samples of the prediction block that have values less than or equal to the boundary luma value. The video coder may use the second prediction model to determine a second set of predicted chroma samples of the prediction block. The second set of predicted chroma samples corresponds to the luma samples of the prediction block that have values greater than the boundary luma value.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for assigning or adjusting a transmit-power control mode, or parameters of a transmit-power at a user equipment used in sidelink communications. In some examples, the disclosure describes determining a user equipment (UE) is connected to the BS, and configuring the UE to use a first transmit-power control mode for determining a transmit-power used for transmitting wireless data over a sidelink based on the BS being positioned indoors.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station and user equipment (UE) may implement techniques to integrate remaining minimum system information (RMSI) and synchronization signal block (SSB) delivery in a shared radio frequency spectrum band. For example, the base station may transmit SSBs and corresponding RMSI transmissions in a same transmission opportunity (TxOP) and configure resource allocations to reduce or eliminate transmission gaps. For example, the SSBs and the corresponding RMSI transmissions may be transmitted after a single, successful listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure. For each SSB, the associated RMSI control resources and RMSI shared channel resources may be nearby or continuous in time such that the SSB, control resource set, and the RMSI downlink shared channel signal are transmitted as a package.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may generate multiple orthogonal demodulation reference signal (DMRS) sequences associated with multiple orthogonal DMRS ports based at least in part on a pi/2 binary phase shift keying (BPSK) based DMRS base sequence and based at least in part on utilizing at least one of a frequency-domain comb structure or a time-domain orthogonal cover code (OCC), wherein the multiple orthogonal DMRS ports are associated with different UEs; determine a DMRS port, of the multiple orthogonal DMRS ports, to be used in association with a transmission of pi/2 BPSK modulated data; and transmit the pi/2 BPSK modulated data and a DMRS sequence, of the multiple orthogonal DMRS sequences, associated with the DMRS port. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for estimating multiple lane boundaries through simultaneous detection of lane markers (LM) and raised pavement markers (RPM). Conventional techniques for lane marker detection (LMD) comprises extracting and clustering line segments from a camera image, fitting the clustered lines to a geometric model, and selecting the multiple lanes using heuristic approaches. Unfortunately, in the conventional technique, an error from each step is sequentially propagated to the next step. Also there are no techniques to estimate both LMs and RPMs. A technique to simultaneously detect in real time both LM and RPMs is proposed. This enables optimal estimation of multiple lane boundaries.

Abstract: All or a portion of a timeslot of a slotted communication system may be dynamically designated for transmitting or for receiving. For example, a timeslot originally designated for receiving information at a wireless node may be temporarily designated for transmitting information from the wireless node. Such a designation may be made to accommodate a temporary asymmetry in traffic flow between wireless nodes or may be made based on other criteria. In some aspects, a resource utilization messaging scheme may be employed to mitigate interference associated with the designation of timeslots for transmitting or receiving.
