Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described to provide priority traffic grant-less access to pre-defined communication resources that are semi-persistently scheduled. A set of semi-persistent communication resources may be reserved for use by priority traffic. If the semi-persistent resources are not used for priority traffic, the semi-persistent resources may be scheduled for use by other types of traffic. As priority traffic is identified, the priority traffic may be transmitted using the semi-persistent resource without having those communication resources granted by a scheduling entity. Such grant-less access to the semi-persistent resources may result in collisions between the scheduled traffic and the priority traffic.

Abstract: Various aspects are described for schemes that address the potential puncturing of important reference signals (RSs) for enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) applications, such as demodulation reference signal (DMRS), channel state information reference signal (CSIRS), tracking reference signal, and general reference signal. The schemes can be used for recovery of eMBB's RS puncturing from dynamic multiplexing of ultra-reliable-low-latency communications (URLLC) and eMBB. The schemes include a block-based scheme and an over-provisioning scheme. The schemes modify an existing RS pattern before puncturing occurs in response to a presence of the URLLC traffic. In addition, there can be an option not to use (e.g., disable) time-domain orthogonal cover code (TD-OCC) for the RSs.

In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a plurality of communications from a corresponding plurality of transmission/reception points (TRPs) included in a coordinated multipoint network. At least two communications, of the plurality of communications, may have different redundancy versions from a common codebook, and may be received in a same transmission time interval (TTI). The UE may decode the plurality of communications using joint decoding. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: A data processing method and apparatus are described. The data processing apparatus obtains an input tensor corresponding to input data. The data processing apparatus determines M1 first-type tensor blocks and M2 second-type tensor blocks. P processing units in the data processing apparatus process the M tensor blocks concurrently. In a first time period, all of the tensor blocks that are processed concurrently by the P processing units are first-type tensor blocks. In a second time period, all of the tensor blocks that are processed concurrently by the P processing units are second-type tensor blocks.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for providing acknowledgements of grant-free uplink transmissions, which may in some cases be used for low latency communications. Approaches described herein include the use of per-user equipment (UE) acknowledgement resources assigned to UEs configured for grant-free uplink transmissions as well as the use of per-group acknowledgement resources assigned to groups of UEs configured for grant-free uplink transmissions. Dynamic puncturing of data in a shared downlink data channel may be used in the context of per-UE acknowledgement resource assignment. Corresponding grants of uplink transmission resources may be used in the context of per-group acknowledgement resources assignments.

Abstract: In some circumstances, a URLLC may preempt resource. An apparatus may be configured to receive a set of resource blocks from a base station including at least one of eMBB data or URLLC data in a PDSCH. The apparatus may receive a URLLC indicator from the base station. The URLLC indicator may be received embedded within the URLLC data or received separate from the URLLC data within DCI of a PDCCH. The URLLC indicator indicates whether the set of resource blocks includes at least part of the URLLC data. The apparatus may determine, based on the URLLC indicator, whether the set of resource blocks includes the URLLC data and processing the set of resource blocks based on a result of determining whether the set of resource blocks includes the URLLC data.

The methods involve administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an inflammation suppressor, a therapeutically effective amount of a CD8+ T cell depleting agent, and a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising a lentiviral vector (LV) comprising an optimized FVIII expression cassette expressibly linked to a megakaryocyte-specific promoter. Such methods, compositions, and systems are useful to treat subjects with blood clotting disorder(s), such as hemophilia A.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A wireless device may receive an indicator of retransmission scheduling for a plurality of UEs, determine, based on a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) update in the indicator, resources for receiving a retransmission, and receive the retransmission on the determined resources. A base station may receive a negative acknowledgement report from at least one UE of a plurality of UEs, determine a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) update for the at least one UE, generate an indicator of retransmission scheduling for the plurality of UEs, the indicator including the MCS update for the at least one UE, and transmit the indicator.

Abstract: A first apparatus may puncture, in at least two subslots, a first type of data or control information with a second type of data or control information. The first apparatus may bundle the least two subslots within a subframe, and the subframe may include a portion for carrying acknowledgment (ACK)/negative acknowledgment (NACK) information associated with the second type of data or control information. The first apparatus may communicate with a user equipment (UE) during the at least two subslots within the subframe. A second apparatus may receive ACK/NACK information associated with a second type of data or control information. The second apparatus may reduce a transmission power for a first type of data or control information during a subsequent subframe when the ACK/NACK information indicates a negative acknowledgement.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques to reduce overhead and improve resource management by efficiently selecting RSMA spreading code for periodic traffic in IoE devices. For example, in accordance with one technique, the IoE device, during an initial access to the base station, may notify the base station of the traffic periodicity of the IoE device such that the base station may assign a spreading code from a dedicated pool that is not utilized during the periodic access of the device. Additionally or alternatively, another technique to reduce overhead and improve resource management may include the IoE devices broadcasting the selected RSMA spreading code that the IoE devices intends to use in discovery broadcasts (DBs) along with the IoE device traffic periodicity such that the IoE devices may autonomously manage selection of RSMA spreading code that avoids collisions for the same traffic periodicity.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for a multi-user data packet, such as a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) packet. A method by a base station (BS) includes sending a control channel, such as physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), scheduling a plurality of user equipment (UEs) for a data packet transmission and sending data for the plurality of UEs in a single transport block on the scheduled data packet. The UE receives the control channel and data packet, and determines the data in the multi-user data packet that is intended for the UE.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a BS transmits, on a set of resources, a first communication to each of a plurality of UEs. The BS receives ACKs to the transmitted first communications from a first subset of UEs, and determines that a second subset of UEs fails to ACK the transmitted first communication (e.g., via implicit or explicit NACKs). The BS configures a group scheduling message that indicates an allocation of the set of resources to the second subset of UEs (e.g., a different subset of the set of resources being allocated to each UE in the second subset of UEs) based on a predetermined resource reallocation scheme. The BS transmits the group scheduling message to the second subset of UEs, and transmits, on the set of resources, a second communication to each UE in the second subset of UEs in accordance with the indicated allocation from the group scheduling message.

Abstract: Base stations of neighbor cells can coordinate with each other in allocating grant-free uplink (GUL) resources for a device-to-device (D2D) connection or channel between user equipments (UEs) across the neighbor cells. The base stations coordinate to determine a condition conducive to D2D communication between the UEs. If the condition exists, the base stations coordinate to allocate network resources for D2D communication between the UEs, and establish a D2D connection between the UEs using the allocated network resources for D2D communication.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure describe a fallback silencing mechanism for wireless communications. A wireless device that operates primarily on unlicensed frequency bands, such as a factory automation device, may occasionally have a need to make Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communication (URLLC) transmissions. If the unlicensed band becomes unsuitable for URLLC transmissions, the wireless device may fallback to licensed band transmissions. A silencing signal may be sent on downlink resources to silence uplink Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) transmissions for one or more mini-slots. The wireless device may then send a URLLC transmission on the one or more min-slots.

Abstract: A depth and distance-based single-path routing method, in which location information of nodes in network is gathered after initialization is completed, and a location table of whole-network nodes maintained by the sink node is generated. The update mechanism of the uplink Location frame is switched to a unicast triggering update mechanism to execute a depth and energy-based uplink routing algorithm. For a downlink control packet arriving at a specified ID, location information of a node is obtained through the location table to execute a distance and energy-based downlink routing policy. The distance and energy-based downlink routing policy for a downlink control packet arriving at a specified location and a downlink control packet arriving at the specified ID is executed, and a routing recovery algorithm is executed when an “open area” occurs.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to communication systems, and more particularly, to techniques for mitigating inter-cell interference for uplink ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC).
