Abstract: Aspects are provided which allow for a base station to transmit code blocks according to a frequency first per layer (FFPL) mapping, and for a UE to decode received code blocks according to the FFPL mapping. The base station maps a plurality of code blocks to multiple layers, where each of the code blocks is mapped to a plurality of resource elements initially by frequency and subsequently by time on only a single layer of the multiple layers. The base station then transmits data including the code blocks to a UE. Afterwards, the UE receives the data including the mapped code blocks in multiple layers from the base station, and the UE decodes the code blocks based on the mapping. Thus, improvements in link efficiency, reliability, and reduced power consumption compared to frequency first (FF) mapping approaches may be achieved.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described, including techniques for utilizing implicit or explicit signaling to indicate a cancellation of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) bundling. A first user equipment (UE) may perform DMRS bundling across physical sidelink channels transmitted to a second UE to enable the second UE to perform joint channel estimation. In some examples, based on a detected change, either at the first UE or the second UE, the first UE may signal to the second UE that the DMRS bundling is canceled. In some examples, the detected change may be a resource allocation change, a physical channel configuration change, a change in a quasi-colocation (QCL) relationship at the first UE, or a change in a transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state at the first UE. Additionally or alternatively, the first UE or the second UE may request the cancellation based on detected changes.
