Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for dynamic adjustment of adaptive reception diversity (ARD). An example method, performed at a user equipment (UE), generally includes receiving configuration information configuring the UE with first resources for receiving at least one downlink signal and second resources for transmitting at least one uplink signal, detecting a conflict between the first resources and the second resources, and dynamically adjusting an adaptive reception diversity (ARD) mode if one or more conditions are met after detecting the conflict.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to optimizing transmission at a user equipment (UE) such that configured grant (CG) and dynamic grant (DG) uplink communications are transmitted via the same channel or antenna port. In some examples, the UE may be configured to obtain, from a network node, a first signal activating a configured grant (CG) for uplink communication via a first port of the apparatus. In some examples, the UE may be configured to obtain, from the network node, a second signal indicating a dynamic grant (DG) for uplink communication via a second port of the apparatus. In some examples, the UE may be configured to output, for transmission to the network node, a CG uplink signal via the second port of the apparatus based on the second signal indication of the second port.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for enhanced power savings in wireless devices through mobile initiated dormancy procedure. A user equipment (UE) may establish radio resource control (RRC) connectivity with a base station of the network, and transmit and receive one or more distinct signaling messages for dormancy state initialization and suspension at the UE. Dormancy state implementation at the UE may conserve available power resources at the UE during periods of inactive data transaction. The one or more signaling messages may contain a single or multi-bit indication for the receiving device, and may be transmitted via direct signaling on upper layer protocols of the data network or mapped to allocated resources of a data transmission. The signaling messages may sustain synchronization between the interpreted functional mode of the UE at the base station and the implemented mode at the UE.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for call continuity following radio link failure (RLF) through re-establishment of a voice call using a same or different radio access technology (RAT) before the call is dropped. Upon detection of RLF on a connection supporting a voice call, a UE may initiate a drop call timer and scan for available connections. The voice call may be attempted to be re-established if a connection is available on using a RAT of an existing connection. The voice call in such cases may continue without the call being dropped. Upon expiration of the drop call timer, the UE may attempt to establish a connection using a RAT identified during the duration of the drop call timer.

Abstract: A system and method of performing a handover include detecting an out of sync event while being connected to a current cell, determining whether a measurement report time-to-trigger signal is active, sending, in response to the detection of the out of sync even and the measurement report time-to-trigger signal being active, a first new measurement report and a first special cause flag prior to a next scheduled measurement report to the communication network, receiving a first list of one or more neighboring cells suitable for a handover, identifying a first neighboring cell from the first list for the handover, and attempting to perform the handover from the current cell to the first neighboring cell.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine location information regarding the UE; and activate a receive beam of the UE in at least one symbol, associated with at least one transmit beam of at least one base station, based at least in part on the location information, wherein the UE is configured to activate the receive beam based at least in part on mapping information, at least partially determined by the UE, that indicates that the receive beam is associated with the location information. Numerous other aspects are provided.
