Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a coordinate switch indication that indicates that the UE is to calculate a first value of a new ephemeris coordinate of a plurality of coordinates. The UE may calculate the first value of the new ephemeris coordinate based on one or more other ephemeris coordinates of the plurality of ephemeris coordinates and may generate ephemeris information, associated with a non-terrestrial communication device, based on the calculation of the first value of the new ephemeris coordinate. The UE may communicate with the non-terrestrial communication device based on the ephemeris information. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from an entity of a non-terrestrial network (NTN), a system information block (SIB) that indicates information relating to one or more NTN SIBs that are to include at least one of ephemeris information or feeder link timing advance information. The UE may receive, from the entity of the NTN, the one or more NTN SIBs based at least in part on the information. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) feedback operations for multicast communications are provided. A first user equipment (UE) receives, from a base station (BS), a multicast feedback configuration indicating a first resource configuration for a negative-acknowledgement (NACK) feedback mode; and a second resource configuration for an acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) feedback mode. The first UE receives, from the BS, a first multicast communication. The first UE transmits, to the BS, a NACK feedback for the first multicast communication based on the first resource configuration. The first UE receives, from the BS, a second multicast communication. The first UE transmits, to the BS, an ACK feedback or a NACK feedback for the second multicast communication based on the second resource configuration.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. Aspects described herein provide techniques and apparatuses associated with synchronizing a preconfigured uplink resource (PUR) release counter between a base station and a user equipment (UE). For example, the synchronization may be performed in connection with the UE entering a connected mode, the base station reconfiguring a PUR, and/or the like. By synchronizing the PUR release counter, misalignment of the PUR release counter between the UE and the base station may be reduced or eliminated. Reducing the misalignment of the PUR release counter reduces the occurrence of a premature release of a PUR, thus reducing UE interference and improving the likelihood of success of the UE's transmission.

A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes determining that the UE is or will be in an out-of-coverage state with a non-terrestrial network (NTN) for a first duration; entering a power saving state in response to the determination; exiting the power saving state when the UE expects to be in an in-coverage state with the NTN; and taking one or more actions to resume communications with the NTN.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, an indication that indicates whether a multicast and broadcast service (MBS) physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) scheduled by downlink control information (DCI) is associated with a second PDSCH processing capability, wherein the second PDSCH processing capability has a shorter duration than a first PDSCH processing capability. The UE may receive, from the base station, the MBS PDSCH scheduled by the DCI. The UE may transmit, to the base station and based at least in part on the indication, hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) feedback in accordance with the first PDSCH processing capability or the second PDSCH processing capability. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a user equipment (UE) may receive a feedback configuration for providing feedback for downlink communications from a base station. Based on the feedback configuration, the UE may determine whether one or more feedback processes has a multicast-only configuration for multicast data communications, or a multicast-or-unicast configuration for either multicast data communications or unicast data communications. The UE may decode one or more transmissions associated with the one or more feedback processes based on the multicast-only or multicast-or-unicast configuration, and may determine a feedback codebook based on the multicast-only or multicast-or-unicast configuration of the one or more feedback processes. The UE may monitor for retransmissions of one or more multicast data communications based on the feedback process configuration.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, an indication that indicates whether a common search space (CSS) is associated with a first type of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) or a second type of PDCCH. The first type of PDCCH may correspond to a cell-broadcast PDCCH and the second type of PDCCH may correspond to a UE-specific PDCCH. The CSS may be for downlink control information (DCI) with a cyclic redundancy check scrambled by a group radio network temporary identifier (G-RNTI) that schedules a multicast and broadcast service (MBS). The UE may receive, from the base station, the first type of PDCCH or the second type of PDCCH. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Various aspects described herein relate to dynamically controlling a time when random access initiated in a target cell of a non-terrestrial network. For example, when a user equipment (UE) detects an event that triggers a random access procedure in the target cell, the UE may monitor a control channel from the target cell for a control signal during a target cell monitoring window prior to initiating random access in the target cell. For example, the control signal may include a dynamic indication to identify UEs allowed to initiate random access, whereby a UE is not permitted to autonomously start contention-based random access in the target cell during the target cell monitoring window unless the UE has received the control signal. In this way, the target cell may regulate a rate at which UEs initiate the RACH procedure in order to manage congestion in the target cell.

Abstract: Wireless communication systems and methods related to determining a new multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) configuration for a MBMS that is backward compatible with a legacy MBMS configurations. A base station determines a MBMS configuration. The MBMS configuration includes at least one non-optional field that indicates compatibility with a first user equipment (UE) having a first MBMS capability or compatibility with a second UE having a second MBMS capability. The MBMS configuration also includes a sub-carrier spacing indication for a MBMS corresponding to the first MBMS capability or the second MBMS capability. The MBMS configuration is broadcasted to the first UE and the second UE.

The method further includes transmitting data to a base station on a PUR identified in the PUR configuration information at the PUR start time.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Transport blocks may be scheduled using a single downlink control information (DCI) message. A wireless device may identify mapping pattern for mapping the transport blocks and repetitions of the transport blocks to communication resources. Mapping the transport blocks, or determining a mapping of the transport blocks, to communication resources may include partitioning the communication resources into subunits, where each subunit includes resources spread across each subband of a frequency hopping pattern and at least one instance of each of the scheduled transport blocks.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration message from a base station including a configuration for communicating with the base station, and the base station may transmit an RRC reconfiguration complete message to the base station (e.g., in response to the RRC reconfiguration message). The UE may then apply the configuration in the RRC reconfiguration message for communicating with the base station after transmitting the RRC reconfiguration complete message. That is, the UE may delay application of the configuration in the RRC reconfiguration message until after the UE transmits the RRC reconfiguration complete message. Using these techniques, ambiguity between the base station and the UE on when the configuration is applied by the UE may be minimized, resulting in improved throughput and reduced latency in a wireless communications system.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A communication device, such as a user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a base station of a non-terrestrial network, a random access request message associated with a random access procedure using a transport block size (TBS) and a power control specified for the random access request message (e.g., a payload of the random access request message) for the random access procedure. The random access request message including a random access preamble and a random access payload carrying a buffer status report (BSR) or uplink data, or both. The UE may then monitor a response window based at least in part on transmitting the random access request message. The UE may receive, from the base station of the non-terrestrial network, a response message of the random access procedure during the response window.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a first synchronization signal for synchronizing with a cell, the first synchronization signal transmitted at a first periodicity by a base station serving the cell. The UE may then receive, subsequent to the synchronizing, a second synchronization signal for resynchronizing with the cell. In some cases, the second synchronization signal may be transmitted by the base station according to a second periodicity that is different from the first periodicity. In some cases, the second synchronization signal may include a plurality of repetitions of a first sequence that is based at least in part on a cell identifier of the cell. The UE may communicate over the cell with the base station based at least in part on the resynchronizing.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A set of reference signal resources that are configured for sounding reference signal transmissions may be shared among user equipments (UEs) that are enabled to receive multicast communications. Each of the shared set of reference signal resources may be associated with set(s) of channel state information. UEs may measure a multicast channel to determine channel state information for the multicast channel and transmit sounding reference signals over one of the shared reference signal resources that is associated with the set of channel state information determined by the UE. A base station that receives the sounding reference signal may transmit a subsequent multicast transmission for the UEs using transmission parameters that are adapted for the set(s) of channel state information associated with the occupied sounding reference signal resource.
