  • Patent number: 12133245
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a base station may configure a user equipment (UE) with a low latency mode indication that indicates one or more different retransmission timelines or repetition techniques relative to communications that are not associated with the low latency mode indication. The base station may provide the low latency mode indication in downlink control information (DCI) that may include a resource grant for uplink resources for an uplink communication, such as for a UE transmission of pose information of an extended reality (XR) application. The low latency mode indication may signal that no retransmissions of the uplink communication are to be transmitted, that a different retransmission timeline is enabled for low latency mode communications, that retransmissions may happen based on a particular timeline that is determined according to one or more timers, or any combinations thereof.

  • Patent number: 12133243
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for enhancing sidelink resource utilization for a user equipment (UE) that supports full duplex (FD) communications. For example, an FD UE may receive incoming sidelink communication over a first set of resources and, in FD mode, simultaneously transmit another sidelink communication over the same first set of resources. According to aspects of the present disclosure, the potential interference between the two sidelink communications will be mitigated or reduced, such as by having the FD UE negotiate with other sidelink UEs over transmission power levels and related aspects, such as beam coordination and/or resource subset designation, or the like.

  • Patent number: 12133175
    Abstract: Aspects relate to supporting power control for physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmissions on an uplink secondary component carrier (SCC) of a wireless communication system. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) receives a power control configuration from a base station for use by the UE for a PUCCH transmission on a selected uplink SCC. The UE then transmits, based at least in part on the power control configuration, the PUCCH to the base station on the selected uplink SCC. Closed-loop and open-loop power control examples are provided. In some aspects, common or shared power control configurations are provided by the base station for use with each component carrier of a PUCCH group. In other aspects, carrier-specific power control configurations are provided by the base station.

  • Publication number: 20240356588
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a user equipment (UE) may communicate on first and second carriers, and may support either two transmit chains or three transmit chains on a second carrier. A base station may configure different sounding reference signal (SRS) resources for different numbers of transmit chains. SRS resources configured with two ports may indicate two transmit chains, and SRS resource configured with three ports may indicate three transmit chains. The base station may indicate an index associated with an SRS resource, and the UE may select (e.g., based on a mapping between the SRS Configuration Information resource index and a number of SRS ports and a number of transmit chains), a corresponding SRS resource, number of ports, number of transmit chains, or any combination thereof. The base station may indicate a number of transmit chains for a given SRS resource based on a PMI index.

  • Patent number: 12127242
    Abstract: Aspects are provided which allow for multiplexing of higher priority uplink transmissions with lower priority uplink transmissions while maintaining URLLC of the higher priority uplink transmission. A UE receives from a base station information including resources for first and second uplink data, where at least a portion of the resources for the first and second uplink data overlap in time. The first and second uplink data are associated with different priority levels. The UE determines whether to multiplex the uplink data based on a transmission timing difference between a scheduled transmission time and a multiplexed transmission time for the second uplink data on the respective resources. The base station makes a similar determination. If the transmission timing difference fails to meet a delay threshold, multiplexing is performed; otherwise, the lower priority transmission is dropped. Thus, different priority multiplexing may occur in low latency situations, satisfying URLLC.

  • Publication number: 20240345214
    Abstract: Aspects presented herein may enable an RF sensing node to transmit RF sensing signals based on OFDM symbols that may be flexibly configured, such that OFDM symbols used for RF sensing may be different from OFDM symbols used for communications. In one aspect, an RF sensing node transmits an RF sensing signal in a first time duration of a symbol in an RF sensing session. The RF sensing node monitors for a reflected RS sensing signal in a second time duration of the symbol that does not overlap with the first time duration, the symbol including a CP that does not overlap with the first time duration and the second time duration.

  • Patent number: 12120747
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a user equipment (UE) may monitor multiple synchronization signal resources, each synchronization signal resource associated with a beam of a set of beams and may determine that multiple candidate beams of the set of beams satisfy a channel quality threshold. The UE may transmit an indication that the multiple candidate beams satisfy the channel quality threshold. For example, the UE may transmit a single random access message on a physical random access channel (PRACH) resource associated with multiple candidate beams, or may transmit multiple random access messages, each one on a different PRACH resource associated with a different candidate beam. The UE may receive an indication of one of the candidate beams from the base station and may establish a connection with the base station using the indicated candidate beam.

  • Patent number: 12119973
    Abstract: Sounding reference signals (SRS) transmitted by a UE, e.g., for positioning or channel estimation, may be configured for one or both of frequency tone level cyclic shift and symbol level code, which, for example, enables multiplexing a greater number of UEs. The frequency tone level cyclic shift is produced by jointly processing a number of symbols with an extended cyclic shift structure. The SRS may be configured using a symbol group level that indicates the number of symbols associated with a cyclic shift structure, and an outer code that indicates a multiplier applied to the SRS at the symbol level, which increases the multiplexing opportunities. The symbol level code may further indicate an extended cyclic shift indicating a linear increase in phase rotation across tones in symbols associated with the symbol group level.

  • Patent number: 12119940
    Abstract: A UE may identify slots to transmit and/or receive information related to one or more HARQ processes in frame structure that includes both sub-band full duplex slot types and time division duplex slot types. Based on a first slot used for control information, a UE can identify a second slot for PUSCH or PDSCH communication based on an offset between the first slot and the second determined by calculating slot offsets (e.g., based on parameters received from a base station). In some aspects, a UE may exclude certain slot duplex types (e.g., SBFD or TDD) when calculating slot offsets. In some aspects, a UE may calculate slot offsets differently for different HARQ processes corresponding to one frame. In some aspects, slot offset behaviors may be based on priority of information associated with a HARQ process.
