  • Patent number: 11991656
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) to select a synchronization signal from multiple synchronization signals received at transceiver nodes of the UE based on configured selection rules. The UE may receive control signaling from another UE, a base station, or some other device indicating a rule for selecting between multiple synchronization signals received across transceiver nodes of the UE. The selection rule may indicate signal quality comparison metrics for selecting the synchronization signal, such as reference signal received power (RSRP) metrics, timing metrics, priority metrics, or a combination thereof. The UE may select a synchronization signal for deriving a timing at the UE based on the selection rule. The UE may forward the selected synchronization signal to one or more other UEs by transmitting the selected synchronization signal via each transceiver node at the UE.

  • Patent number: 11979912
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may use easily detectable transmission parameters to infer difficult-to-detect parameters for communications with a base station. For example, the base station may provide the UE with multiple sets of transmission parameters, and the UE 115 may choose from among these sets of transmission parameters for the communications. In some cases, the UE may be configured with a reference set of transmission parameters, receive one or more transmission parameters that are different relative to the reference set of transmission parameters, and then determine to use the different transmission parameters for the communications. Additionally or alternatively, the multiple sets of transmission parameters may be specified for a certain uplink message (e.g., random access channel messages), where the UE selects the transmission parameter set based on one or more characteristics of the uplink message.
