  • Patent number: 12255738
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit a data message to a user equipment (UE) in a data block modulated according to a modulation and coding scheme (MCS). The UE may monitor for the data block and may attempt to decode the data block. If the UE successfully receives and decodes the data block, the UE may transmit an acknowledgment (ACK) in a feedback message. If the UE unsuccessfully receives or decodes the data block, the UE may transmit a negative acknowledgement (NACK). The UE may transmit the feedback message with the ACK or NACK and a value from a codebook indicating for the base station to increase or decrease the MCS by a delta value for a following transmission or a retransmission.

  • Patent number: 12207356
    Abstract: Some aspects described herein relate to reducing a delay in the retransmission of undelivered capability information segments. For example, when transmitting capability information via multiple segments, a UE may request the network to acknowledge each segment and/or may modify a network configured parameter to reduce the delay in retransmitting undelivered segments. In some aspects, a UE may attach to a network for a priority service, such as an emergency service or a short message service. In connection with the attachment, the UE may provide a reduced set of capability information that is relevant to the priority service and that omits at least some capability information irrelevant to the priority service.
