Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may transmit a capability message indicating a parameter configuration for each phase error process of a set of phase error processes of the first UE. The first UE may transmit, to a second UE, a phase error process indicator to indicate that the first UE is using a first phase error process of the set of phase error processes to generate a sidelink transmission in accordance with the parameter configuration for the first phase error process. The second UE may monitor, via a sidelink channel, for the sidelink transmission based on frequency tracking, phase tracking, time tracking, or any combination thereof being performed in accordance with the parameter configuration for the first phase error process. The first UE may transmit, via the sidelink channel, the sidelink transmission to the second UE.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A device may be configured to support multi-beam, or multi-panel operations, or both which may allow multiple sidelink transmissions to occur simultaneously. In some cases, flexible beam-management for the beamformed sidelink communications is implemented to manage the beams. A transmitting UE may indicate transmission beam information to the base station that the base station may use to schedule sidelink transmissions as part of a beam management procedure. The beam management procedure may allow a transmitting UE to update transmission beam information based on the mobility of the sidelink UEs and other environmental factors. In some cases, beam management includes a beam training procedure that may be implemented to refine the sidelink beams, where support for multi-panel and multi-beam operation may allow for multiple beams to be trained simultaneously.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for determining shared resources associated with one or more user equipments (UEs) for sidelink communications, including control resources and data resources. A first UE may transmit a sidelink request to reserve a subset of data resources to a second UE, and may monitor for one or more sidelink responses indicating a positive sidelink response to the sidelink request, a negative sidelink response to the sidelink request, or both. The second UE may transmit a positive sidelink response if it is available for a data transmission. A third UE may transmit a negative sidelink response if it objects to the data transmission. The first UE may determine, based on monitoring for the one or more sidelink responses, whether to transmit a sidelink confirmation indicating a reservation of the subset of the data resources to the second UE.

Abstract: The described techniques relate to improved methods, systems, devices, and apparatuses that support configurations for sidelink beam management. In some cases, a base station may determine sidelink beams for beam sweeping and instruct a user equipment (UE) which sidelink beams to use. The base station may determine the sidelink beams for beam sweeping based on a report sent from the UE. In other cases, the UE may determine transmission sidelink beams for beam sweeping based on the UE capabilities beam input from the receiving UE, or the base station determining which beams to use and allocating resources for the beam sweeping. Additionally or alternatively, the base station may determine a portion of the sidelink beams for beam sweeping and the UE may determine a portion of the sidelink beams to use for beam sweeping in addition to the beams indicated by the base station.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A served user equipment (UE) may receive a first configuration signal configuring the served UE with first transmission beam resources and second transmission beam resources for the served UE to use for beam management over a sidelink channel. The served UE may identify, based at least in part on the first configuration signal, a pattern for performing beam management using the first transmission beam resources and the second transmission beam resources. The served UE may perform the beam management over the sidelink channel in accordance with the pattern using the first transmission beam resources and the second transmission beam resources.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. For a user equipment with a number of M greater than or equal to two antennas, a signal is transmitted from at least a first antenna and a second antenna at a first time with an initial relative phase state including a first relative phase rotation between the signals transmitted by the first and second antennas. In response to a determination that a response signal was not received at the user equipment, the signal is retransmitted from at least the first antenna and the second antenna with a subsequent relative phase state among the transmitting antennas, including a second different relative phase rotation, at a second time. The second time may be the next subsequent retransmission of the signal or may be a retransmission following one or more retransmissions using the first relative phase rotation.

Abstract: A controlling method for an electronic cigarette with multiple output modes and an electronic cigarette are disclosed. The controlling method comprises receiving a first operation signal for switching between output modes when the electronic cigarette is in a standby state. An output mode is in a memory, the output mode corresponding to the first operation signal and displacing a previous output mode. When the electronic cigarette receives a smoking signal, outputs are controlled according to the output mode stored in the memory. Whether the smoking signal is interrupted is determined when the battery feeds power to the load. The electronic cigarette enters standby state when the smoking signal is interrupted, otherwise whether a duration of the smoking signal reaches a preset duration is determined. If yes, the load is stopped charging and a hint is generated for indicating that a working duration of the electronic cigarette is too long.
