Abstract: An apparatus for wireless communication includes a receiver and a transmitter that is configured to transmit a signal during a first slot. The signal has a power level that is associated with a transmission that is to occur during the first slot or during a second slot after the first slot. The signal is distinct from the transmission. The first slot and the second slot occur during a sub-frame time interval associated with a first cellular vehicle-to-everything (CV2X) wireless communication protocol, and the first slot and the second slot are associated with a second CV2X wireless communication protocol different than the first CV2X wireless communication protocol. The transmitter is further configured to perform the transmission during the second slot based on the power level.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some examples, when a high subcarrier spacing (SCS) is used for sidelink communications, the user equipments (UEs) may use a modified sidelink slot structure for the sidelink communications. In one example, the slot structure may include at least two automatic gain control (AGC) symbols with at least one sidelink control channel symbol between the two AGC symbols. The UE may perform an AGC procedure during the two AGC symbols and the sidelink control channel symbol. In some examples, the slot structure may include bundled slots to minimize per slot overhead associated with AGC symbols and sidelink control channel symbols. For example, at a high SCS, the slot structure may include a first slot including multiple AGC symbols, Subsequent bundled slots may not include AGC symbols and/or sidelink control channel symbols.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may perform online spur detection and mitigation scheme. The UE may identify spurs during operation, in real time, and apply cancelation and noise equalization to address identified spurs. The UE may apply a high pass filter to reference signals. During a symbol, the UE may apply the high pass filter by estimating the channel on one or more neighbor tones (e.g., tones of higher frequency and tones of lower frequency that also carry reference symbols). Because the UE may assume that a channel will generally be smooth, and that noise may vary slowly or steadily across frequency resources, the UE may compare the channel noise of a particular tone to an average or normalized channel noise of the one or more neighbor tones.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may monitor sets of decoding candidates over a search space in each monitoring occasion to detect downlink control transmissions. Such a monitoring process may be resource intensive. To reduce the processing power involved in monitoring the control channel, a UE may measure resources associated with the downlink control channel to obtain a quality metric. The UE may compare the quality metric to one or more thresholds and may perform a decoding process on a set of configured decoding candidates for the downlink control channel based on the comparing. In some cases, if the channel quality is relatively good, the UE may perform a list decoding process using a list size less than a maximum list size or may perform partial data tone processing to reduce the processing complexity for some of the decoding candidates.

Similarly, for the non-linear equalizer function, the base station may indicate an explicit indication of the function, or may indicate a lookup table, or a kernels series (e.g., with or without corresponding coefficients).
