  • Patent number: 12262332
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may establish, with a network entity, a wireless connection that uses a set of symbols per transmission time interval (TTI) for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communications, where each symbol of the set of symbols may correspond to a fast Fourier transform (FFT) window and may include a guard interval (GI) portion and a data portion within the FFT window. In some examples, the UE may receive a control message indicating at least one parameter associated with a power offset between a data signal of the set of symbols and a reference signal of the set of symbols that is associated with the data signal. As such, the UE may communicate with the network entity, the data signal, and the reference signal according to the indicated power offset using the set of symbols.

  • Publication number: 20250080312
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. User equipments (UEs) that operate in sidelink mode 2 may be configured with or agree upon time windows in which full-duplex communication is supported and time windows in which half-duplex communication is supported. The UEs may agree upon beam pair links to be used for full-duplex communication during the full-duplex time windows. A first UE may transmit sidelink control information (SCI) that schedules a first sidelink shared channel communication in a first communication resource in a time window that is configured for full-duplex communication. Based on the SCI, a second UE may identify that the first sidelink shared channel communication is scheduled in the first communication resource in a full-duplex time window and may transmit a second sidelink shared channel communication to the first UE in a second communication resource that at least partially overlaps with the first communication resource.

  • Patent number: 12207261
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) and a base station may support communicating uplink control messages over a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) using a time domain waveform. For example, the base station may configure the UE with a first group of PUCCH resource sets associated with a first type of time domain waveform and a second group of PUCCH resource sets associated with a second type of time domain waveform. The base station may transmit downlink control information (DCI) to the UE that indicates a type of time domain waveform and a PUCCH resource of a PUCCH resource set. In response, the UE may select the PUCCH resource set from either the first group or the second group and may transmit an uplink control message using the indicated PUCCH resource and type of time domain waveform.

  • Patent number: 12143208
    Abstract: In a wireless network, a frame structure may include a padding duration at the start of every half subframe to ensure that an integer number of symbols fit within a duration of the half subframe. In some aspects, to avoid wasting time domain resources, the padding duration may be utilized for other purposes. For example, because a single carrier waveform is not bound to a fixed Fast Fourier Transform size, a wireless node may use the padding duration to transmit a single carrier symbol that has a shorter length than a full symbol associated with a subcarrier spacing. Additionally, or alternatively, in cases where a wireless node is configured to transmit or receive a signal in a first symbol of a half subframe that is associated with a different power level than a preceding symbol, the padding duration may be used to adapt a transmit power or a receive gain.

  • Publication number: 20240349338
    Abstract: A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) and related apparatus are provided. In the method, a UE monitors for sidelink resource reservations in slots belonging to a sidelink resource pool during a sensing window including one or more slots in which the UE transmits, an inclusion of the one or more slots being based on a condition for sidelink FD communication, and transmits a sidelink transmission using a resource selected from a subset of candidate sidelink resources in the sidelink resource pool after monitoring for the sidelink resource reservations. The method improves the efficiency and performance of SL communication by enabling FD operation and facilitating better resource selection and channel prioritization.

  • Patent number: 12114359
    Abstract: A wireless device (e.g., a UE or a base station) may identify a first subcarrier mapping associated with one or more redundant subcarriers. The one or more redundant subcarriers may correspond to one or more UWs in a UW-OFDM waveform. The wireless device may identify a second subcarrier mapping associated with one or more reference signals. A simultaneous application of the first subcarrier mapping and the second subcarrier mapping may be associated with one or more collisions. The wireless device may modify at least one of the first subcarrier mapping or the second subcarrier mapping to eliminate the one or more collisions. The wireless device may generate the UW-OFDM waveform based on the modified at least one of the first subcarrier mapping or the second subcarrier mapping. The wireless device may transmit a signal based on the generated UW-OFDM waveform.

  • Publication number: 20240323801
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A relay user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a network entity, a relay report message including information supporting full duplex relaying of reverse link signaling from the remote UE. Such a relay report message may include information that facilitates relaying of the reverse link communications while reducing or mitigating cross-link interference (CLI), self-interference (SI), or both, in a full duplex (FD) mode. For example, the relay report message may include information triggering beam sweeping, beam selection, resource selection, etc., for the relaying of the reverse link communications. In some examples, a network entity may configure sidelink UEs with an FD sidelink slot format that supports sidelink transmissions in the final symbol of a sidelink slot (e.g., instead of relying on one or more gap symbols).
