For two-stage triggered handover to be performed upon receipt of a subsequent triggering message, the handover timer is a handover validity timer and the associated handover execution condition comprises receipt of the handover triggering message prior to expiration of the handover validity timer.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for configuring multi-beam full-duplex communication that allows a device (e.g., user equipment (UE) or base station) to contemporaneously perform both uplink and downlink communication over the same frequency band. Because of the full duplex communication capability provided by the present disclosure, the NR system may achieve reduced latency and improved spectrum and resource efficiency, thereby accommodating a growing demands for the wireless communication. The full duplex communication capability may be achieved by implementing downlink control information (DCI) format that specifies to the UE the beam assignments for contemporaneous transmission (Tx) and reception (Rx).

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may communicate with a base station via a first instance of a periodic data burst, where the periodic data burst may include one or more uplink or downlink transmissions scheduled on a first bandwidth part (BWP). The UE may start a bandwidth switching timer at the beginning of the first instance of the periodic data burst, and determine whether the bandwidth switching timer has expired upon expiration of an inactivity timer that was triggered by receipt of one or more downlink control channel messages. The UE may operate, based on the determination, on one of the first BWP or a second BWP during at least a portion of a time period that extends from the expiration of the inactivity timer and a beginning of a second instance of the periodic data burst.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit concurrent messages over a sidelink channel to another UE and over an uplink channel to a base station. The UE may transmit, to a base station, a report indicating a capability of the UE to concurrently transmit over a sidelink channel and an uplink channel. The UE may receive, from the base station and based on the report, a transmission configuration scheduling a concurrent sidelink and uplink transmission within a resource shared by the sidelink channel and the uplink channel. The UE may then transmit the concurrent sidelink and uplink transmission within the resource shared by the sidelink channel and the uplink channel based on the transmission configuration. The other UE and the base station may receive the concurrent sidelink and uplink transmission and may decode different layers of the transmission.

Abstract: Multi-User Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) data transmissions are provided with a forward-predictive precoding matrix to mitigate the effects of a change in a state of a communication channel. First and second soundings are performed, at first and second times, to a receive antenna over a channel and, responsive to each of the soundings, first and second Channel State Information (CSI) are received. Based on the first and second CSI, a change in a state of the channel over a time period between the first and second time is determined. Based on the change in the state of the channel, a forward-predictive channel state matrix and/or a forward-predictive precoding matrix are determined that reflect a state of the channel at a future time and that are consistent with the determined change in the state over the time period. The forward-predictive precoding matrix is applied to a data transmission.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a user equipment (UE) that receives a timing advance command from a network access node, sends a value indicative of a timing advance capability to the network access node, adjusts a timing advance indicated by the timing advance command based on the timing advance capability to yield an adjusted timing advance, and transmits an uplink signal to the network access node using the adjusted timing advance. Further aspects relate to a network access node that transmits a timing advance command to a user equipment (UE), receives a value indicative of a timing advance capability of the UE, and receives an uplink signal adjusted by a timing advance according to the timing advance capability of the UE. The timing advance capability may indicate that the UE has, or does not have, a capability to adjust the timing advance indicated by the timing advance command.
