Abstract: Aspects are provided for enhancing HARQ ACK for Message 4 or Message B. An apparatus may obtain a configuration indicating a number of repetitions for a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission in a plurality of slots prior to activation of a dedicated PUCCH resource configuration with a plurality of repetitions based on a radio resource control (RRC) message. The PUCCH transmission includes a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) feedback message in response to receiving a message on a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) in a random access procedure. The PUCCH transmission may then be transmitted on a PUCCH according to the number of repetitions. This allows coverage techniques to be applied to certain transmissions in order to improve coverage and reliability. In an aspect, the coverage enhancement techniques may include repetition of a transmission for coverage extension.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described, in which a communication device (e.g., a user equipment (UE), a network entity) may perform carrier aggregation, and cross-carrier scheduling provides that a first carrier may provide scheduling information for one or more other carriers, in which the one or more other carriers may have different discontinuous reception (DRX) configurations than the first carrier. One or more DRX-related timers of different DRX groups may be started or restarted based on a control information reception on the first carrier, or on a different carrier of a different DRX group. Additionally, or alternatively, control information transmissions on the first carrier may be provided based on one or more DRX-related timers that are associated with the first carrier, or that are associated with a carrier of another DRX group than the DRX group of the first carrier, or any combinations thereof.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure allow for more efficient rate matching by allowing a triggered A-ZP-CSI-RS set to support rate matching around multiple slots. Aspects of the present disclosure may allow a triggered A-ZP CSI-RS set to be applied to less than all scheduled PDSCH slots when DCI schedules PDSCH on multiple slots. Aspects of the present disclosure may extend CSI-RS resource mapping to span multiple adjacent slots. In another instance, aspects of the present disclosure allow a resource mapping configuration to indicate an initial symbol of a plurality of symbols spanning the plurality of slots for a respective A-ZP-CSI-RS resource. Doing so also allows a PDSCH transmission in a slot among the plurality of slots using a rate matching pattern associated with a set of A-ZP-CSI-RE resources to be received. In addition, aspects of the present disclosure can also add periodicity to A-ZP-CSI-RS resource set configuration.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure allow a UE to request, in an anchor carrier on one frequency band, a base station to configure and transmit A-TRS in an SSB-less secondary carrier on a different frequency band. The UE transmits, in a first cell served by the anchor carrier, a request for A-TRS. Based on the request, the UE receives, in a second cell lacking SSB transmissions served by the secondary carrier, the A-TRS based on the request. The base station may also control transmission of the A-TRS in the SSB-less secondary cell based on a timer derived from the request. Using the A-TRS, the UE may apply AGC and time/frequency tracking loop operations prior to receiving a PDSCH in the SSB-less secondary cell, thereby improving reception performance of downlink data transmissions in the secondary carrier. Thus, network energy savings provided by SSB-less secondary carriers may be obtained in inter-band CA.

Abstract: Aspects relate to activation of a cell (e.g., an SCell) based on measurements made by a user equipment (UE) when the cell is not activated with respect to (e.g., as a secondary cell for) the UE (e.g., the cell is deemed by the network as an unknown cell for that UE). In this case, when the network requests the UE to conduct measurements with respect to that cell (e.g., in conjunction with activation of the cell), the UE may report information based on the measurements the UE conducted when the cell was not activated with respect to that UE.

Abstract: A sidelink user equipment (UE) receives a group wake-up signal (WUS) from a base station and decodes the group WUS based on zone identification (ID) information of the sidelink UE. A base station transmits a wake-up signal to a group of sidelink user equipments (UEs) and transmits zone ID information to the group. A group wake-up signal parameter is a function of the zone ID information. A base station generates a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) sequence, selects a port for a DMRS, and/or scrambles a control channel or a data channel based on a zone ID of a sidelink UE. A sidelink UE compares a zone ID of the sidelink UE with a zone ID of a neighbor UE and initiates a conditional handover to another cell when the zone ID of the sidelink UE differs from the zone ID of the neighbor UE.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some examples, a first UE may receive an indication of first resources from a second UE. In some examples, the second UE may be a UE configured to receive a transmission from a third UE over the first resources. In some such examples, the first UE may transmit, to a fourth UE, a sidelink transmission over available resources that exclude the first resources. Additionally, or alternatively, the second UE may be a UE that received sidelink control information from the third UE indicating the resources for transmission by the third UE to a fourth UE. In some such examples, the first UE may transmit, to the second UE, a sidelink transmission over available resources that exclude the first resources.
