Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for downlink and/or uplink beam management for full-duplex communications. An example method generally includes receiving, from a wireless node, a RS resource configuration indicating interference RS resources associated with interference reference signal transmissions; monitoring interference RSs via the interference RS resources; for each of the interference RS resources, determining a reception beam based at least in part on the monitored more interference RSs corresponding to the interference RS resources; receiving control signaling, from the second wireless node, indicating QCL information, which also indicates to either refrain from using any monitored interference RS resource in determining spatial reception parameters or identify at least one monitored interference RS resource to use in determining the spatial reception parameters; and determining the spatial reception parameters in accordance with the control signaling.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for channel state information (CSI) feedback for multiple discrete Fourier transform (DFT) beams on multiple transmission layers. A user equipment (UE) may report a total number of non-zero power DFT beams across all of the transmission layers. The UE may be configured with a total number of leading beams (Ktotal) across all of the transmission layers for which to provide high quantization feedback. When the total number of non-zero DFT beams across all the transmission layers exceeds the configured total number of leading beams across all the transmission layers, the UE may report high-resolution quantization feedback for Ktotal non-zero power precoding coefficients having the highest amplitude coefficients, and may report low-resolution quantization feedback for the remaining non-zero power precoding coefficients. A base station may receive the CSI feedback to determine a precoding matrix.

Abstract: Wireless devices may use polar codes for encoding transmissions and may support combining transmissions to improve decoding reliability (e.g., by achieving chase combining and incremental redundancy (IR) gains). For example, an encoding device may puncture a set of mother code bits using different puncturing patterns to obtain different redundancy versions for a first transmission and a re-transmission. Each puncturing pattern may correspond to an equivalent decoding performance. In some cases, to obtain equivalent puncture sets, the encoding device may perform punctured index manipulation procedures on an initial puncturing pattern. A punctured index manipulation procedure may involve switching a binary state for a binary bit at a same binary bit index for each puncture index in a puncturing pattern. A device may receive the transmissions generated using the equivalent puncture sets and may combine the information for improved decoding reliability.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for aperiodic channel state information (A-CSI) feedback scheduling for cross-carriers. Certain aspects provide a method for wireless communication. The method generally includes receiving on a first component carrier (CC) signaling indicating an aperiodic channel state information (CSI) report request for a plurality of CCs; determining schedules for at least CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) transmissions on the CCs based on the received signaling; monitoring CSI-RS transmissions on the CCs according to the determined schedules; and reporting CSI feedback based on CSI-RS measurements of the CSI-RS transmissions.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may determine to use one or more channel state information (CSI) omission configurations for omitting portions of a CSI report. For example, a UE may receive a trigger to report CSI, and the UE may identify that a payload of the CSI report exceeds a capacity of resources for transmitting the report. As such, the UE may determine to use one or more CSI omission configurations, where each CSI omission configuration may correspond to dropping different portions of the CSI report. The selection of the CSI omission configuration to use may be based on a set of parameters associated with CSI reporting. In some cases, the UE selects the CSI omission configuration based on an explicit indication from the base station. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may implicitly determine the CSI omission configuration based on the parameters.

Abstract: A base station may determine co-phase information and uplink precoding information (e.g., user equipment (UE) precoder information) based on one or more received sounding reference signals (SRSs) from a UE. The UE may adjust precoders or co-phase for different SRS transmissions over the one or more configured SRS resources. As such, the base station may indicate either co-phase information or uplink precoding information via an SRS resource indicator (SRI), and may transmit an explicit indication of the remaining co-phase information or uplink precoding information in addition to the SRI. In other examples (e.g., when only a single SRS resource is configured), the base station may transmit an index corresponding to uplink precoding information, as well as a separate indication of co-phase information. In some cases, a port selection pattern may be included with an explicit indication, indicating a selection of antenna port indices the precoder or co-phase index applies to.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may be configured with a first set of indexed timing offsets for determining offsets between uplink grants and uplink data transmissions and a second set of indexed timing offsets for determining offsets between an aperiodic channel state information (CSI) trigger and transmission of an aperiodic CSI report. A UE may receive both an uplink grant for an uplink data transmission and an aperiodic CSI report trigger. The UE may determine a timing offset for transmission of both the uplink data transmission and the aperiodic CSI report. The timing offset may be based at least in part on the first set of indexed timing offsets, the second set of indexed timing offsets, or a third set of indexed timing offsets for joint transmission of uplink data and aperiodic CSI. The UE may transmit the uplink data transmission and the aperiodic CSI report according to the timing offset.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for a user equipment (UE) operating in a full-duplex mode to report of channel state information based on an estimate of self-interference associated with concurrent uplink and downlink transmissions using at least partially overlapping frequency resources. A base station may transmit downlink reference signals to the UE for measurement and generation of the channel state information, and the base station may use the channel state information reported by the UE to schedule the simultaneous transmission and reception such that the self-interference from full-duplex mode operations is mitigated.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indicator, in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) payload, that indicates whether the PDCCH payload includes data or downlink control information (DCI) for obtaining the data, wherein the indicator is an initial state of a cyclic redundancy check that includes a predefined sequence of bits; and obtain at least one of the data or the DCI based at least in part on the indicator. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for adaptive modulo base selection for non-linear precoding. Aspects provide a method for wireless communications that can be performed by a base station (BS). The BS adaptively selects a modulo base for a data stream for at least one user equipment (UE) in a transmission to one or more UEs. The BS selects the modulo base based on one or more parameters. The BS transmits a signal for at least one UE of the one or more UEs to identify the selected modulo base. The BS performs the transmission to the one or more UEs. The UE receives the transmission from the BS and the signal for the identification of the selected modulo base. Based on the signal, the UE determines the modulo base for at least one data stream in the transmission and decodes the data stream using the modulo base.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for implementing enhancements to advanced Channel State Information (CSI) reporting procedures are provided. A User Equipment (UE) receives at least one trigger message for reporting advanced CSI by the UE, and takes one or more actions to reduce at least one of feedback overhead or processing at the UE associated with the reporting.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a sounding reference signal (SRS) that indicates that the UE is configured with a quantity of receive elements that is greater relative to a quantity of transmit elements with which the UE is configured. The UE may receive, based at least in part on transmitting the SRS, a first channel state information (CSI) reference signal (CSI-RS) set and a second CSI-RS set. The UE may transmit a CSI report that is based at least in part on the first CSI-RS set and the second CSI-RS set. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a base station operating in full-duplex mode may provide for reception of one or more higher priority transmissions using at least partially overlapping time-frequency resources as used for transmission of lower priority communications. In order to mitigate self-interference at the base station, a transmission power used for the overlapping time-frequency resources may be reduced. The base station may provide an indication of a subset of resources that have a reduced transmission power, an amount of the power reduction for the subset of resources, or both.

Abstract: Aspects are provided which allow a user equipment (UE) to identify a low-bandwidth (low-BW) CORESET-0 and associated CSS based on reception bandwidth of the UE. The base station may configure different frequency and time-domain resources of the low-BW CORESET in order to optimize resource utilization of the low-BW CORESET-0, and the low-tier UE may identify these resources of CORESET-0 and CSS from the system configuration information received in a master information block (MIB). As a result, low tier UEs may operate in a same cell as legacy UEs without the need for the base station to transmit additional signaling to either legacy UEs or lower tier UEs for the UEs to receive their respective CORESET-0's and identify a physical downlink channel (PDCCH).

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to methods and apparatus for generating and reporting CSI.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described for polar coding with rate matching. A transmitter may construct input channels into a polar encoder to provide an information bit vector that does not include punctured or shortened bits. One or more transmission capacity factors may be used in identifying the information bit vector, which may be mapped to one or more of a codeword length of the polar code or a number of transmitted bits in each codeword. A number of different rate matching schemes may be available for transmissions, and may be selected based on one or more polar coding parameters. In some cases, mapping techniques may be used in two or more different rate matching schemes.

Abstract: Some wireless communication networks may improve communication reliability and/or throughput using multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) schemes. MIMO operation may in turn be supported by the use of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS), which may allow communicating devices to estimate and leverage multipath channel conditions. However, the signaling used to support such communications may consume significant resources. In accordance with the described techniques, a user equipment (UE) may identify non-zero-power beams based on received CSI-RS. The non-zero-power beams may contribute to the final precoding vector. Rather than transmitting beam coefficients relating to zero-power beams, the UE may instead indicate a presence of these zero-power beams to the base station (e.g., by indicating a number of non-zero-power beams). Such techniques may reduce overhead of the communications or otherwise benefit the system.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In wireless systems supporting multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) transmissions, devices may implement beam-forming to improve reliability of communications. A user equipment (UE) may select a set of beams, and corresponding beam indices, for communication based on reference signals received from a base station. The UE may determine values corresponding to each of the beam indices using a scalable set of tables. For example, the UE may select a subset of the tables based on the number of selected beams, and may determine the values based on these tables. In this way, the UE may efficiently store sets of tables for multiple different configurations. The UE may sum the corresponding values to obtain a combination index value, and may transmit the combination index value to the base station. The base station may determine the selected beams based on this combination index value.

More particularly, aspects of the present disclosure provide for codebook subset restriction (CBSR) on per spatial domain (SD) basis amplitude.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for reporting channel state information (CSI) with spatial and time domain compression. A method comprises receiving one or more signals from a second wireless communications device, determining a precoder matrix index (PMI) based on the signals, performing a channel-tap compression of the PMI and transmitting the channel-tap compressed PMI to the second wireless communications device.
