Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for managing quality of service for protocol data unit (PDU) Sets include providing alternative service requirements for Protocol Data Unit (PDU) Sets supporting data traffic of an application executing on a user equipment (UE) in which the alternative service requirements for PDU Sets include one or more quality of service (QoS) reference parameters and a combination of a PDU Set Delay Budget (PSDB) value, a PDU Set Error Rate (PSER) value, and a Guaranteed Flow Bit Rate (GFBR) value to which the application can adapt. Apparatuses and methods further include adapting parameters for PDU set in response to indications that a link between the UE and the network can no longer guarantee QoS flow transport of the PDU Sets.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A node (e.g., a base station or network entity) may identify a signal that provides an indication of a location of a contention free random access channel (CFRA) resource within a time region and an indication of a timing pattern for the CFRA resource, the timing pattern associated with a pattern of subsequent instances of the time region in which the CFRA resource is repeated, wherein the CFRA resource is not a fully overlapping resource with respect to a contention based random access (CBRA) resource. The node may convey the signal to one or more user equipment (UE) to indicate the location and the timing pattern.

In a wireless communication system, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of multiple search space set groups (SSSGs), where a respective SSSG may be associated with a respective parameter set. Parameters in a parameter set may be power-saving parameters, reliability parameters, or a combination thereof.

The UE may switch from the first SSSG to the second SSSG and apply a first parameter set to the second SSSG, where the second SSSG is associated with (e.g., mapped to) to the first parameter set. In some examples, the SSSGs may be associated with respective scheduling request configuration groups (SRCGs), which the UE may use to transmit SRs to the network entity.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a configuration message that indicates a radio resource allocation and a transmission scheme for one or more first configured grant-small data transfer (CG-SDT) occasions and one or more second CG-SDT occasions. The one or more second CG-SDT occasions are at least partially nested, in time, frequency, or a combination thereof, within the one or more first CG-SDT occasions. The UE may therefore transmit, to the base station, an uplink communication within the one or more first CG-SDT occasions or the one or more second CG-SDT occasions, using the radio resource allocation and the transmission scheme. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: An apparatus may determine whether to indicate a beam failure recovery request to a base station using a contention-free RACH procedure with a dedicated preamble when the UE is timing unsynchronized with the base station. The apparatus may perform, when the apparatus is timing unsynchronized with the base station, the contention-free RACH procedure with the dedicated preamble to indicate the beam failure recovery request when the beam failure recovery request is determined to be indicated to the base station using the contention-free RACH procedure with the dedicated preamble. The apparatus may perform, when the apparatus is timing unsynchronized with the base station, a contention-based RACH procedure to indicate the beam failure recovery request when the beam failure recovery request is undetermined to be sent to the base station using the contention-free RACH procedure with the dedicated preamble.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured with a policy for ordering multiple uplink shared channel resources granted for transmission of multiple transport blocks (TBs). The UE may assign data from one or more logical channels to multiple uplink shared channel resources in an order specified by the configured policy. In some examples, the UE may assign data from logical channels to uplink shared channel resources in a chronological order in which the uplink shared channel resources are scheduled, in a transport block size order of transport blocks to be carried in the uplink shared channel resources, in a modulation size order of the modulation orders associated with the uplink shared channel resources, or based on which uplink shared channel resources include uplink control information.

For example, a network entity may output, and a user equipment (UE) may receive, a first control message identifying a first discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle and a second, different DRX cycle for the UE to use, the first and second DRX cycles having a first and second active duration, respectively. The network entity may also output a second control message identifying periodic resources for the UE to use to monitor for a periodic signal, the periodic resources being outside at least the first active duration. The UE may monitor for, and the network entity may output, based on the periodic resources being outside the first active duration, the periodic signal during the first active duration based on updating the first active duration, updating the periodic resources, or both.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, while in dual connectivity with a carrier of a second cell group, a first grant for a first communication on a carrier of a first cell group. The UE may determine an allocated power for the first cell group by a specified time offset before a start of second cell group transmissions. The UE may receive a second grant, after the first grant, for a second communication on the first cell group. The UE may transmit the first communication with a first transmit power. The UE may transmit the second communication with a second transmit power that is based on the allocated power and the first transmit power and/or a maximum transmit power for the first cell group. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Aspects are provided which enhance Mode 2 multi-TRP operation by allowing a UE to recover and reconfigure a failed PDCCH beam of a first TRP in a serving cell by using a second TRP which still has a working PDCCH in the same serving cell. If the first TRP undergoes beam failure but the second TRP in the same cell has an operational beam, the UE may send a beam failure indication indicating a new beam for the PDCCH of the first TRP. The base station comprising the second TRP may then reconfigure the PDCCH serving beams of the first TRP based on the beam failure indication. The reliability of a serving cell may thus be increased.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration message indicating a scheduling request configuration that includes at least one resource associated with a half-duplex mode of the UE and at least one resource associated with a full-duplex mode of the UE. The UE may transmit a scheduling request using the at least one resource associated with the half-duplex mode or the at least one resource associated with the full-duplex mode. Additionally, or alternatively, the configuration message may indicate a logical channel that maps to a corresponding scheduling request configuration associated with a half-duplex mode of the UE, to a corresponding scheduling request configuration associated with a full-duplex mode of the UE, or to a combination thereof. Accordingly, the UE may transmit the scheduling request using the logical channel. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Techniques described provide dependent procedure operation configured for avoiding or mitigating one or more aspect of the impact on the dependent procedure of cancelling an uplink transmission. One or more attributes (e.g., a transmission indication attribute) associated with a cancelled uplink transmission may be designated for dependent procedure operation, such as for indicating whether the cancelled uplink transmission is considered either as having been transmitted or not having been transmitted. The one or more attributes associated with a cancelled uplink transmission designated for dependent procedure operation may be based upon whether the cancelling the first uplink transmission is a fast cancellation or is a slow cancellation. The designation of a transmission indication attribute for dependent procedure operation may correspond to the dependent procedure and/or its operation. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may configure resources on a first communication link for scheduling requests and may transmit an indication of the configured resources over a second communication link to a first device. The first device may relay the indication of the configured resources to a second device via the first communication link. The second device may identify that resources on the first communication link are unavailable for a transmission and may transmit a scheduling request. The first device may receive the scheduling request. The first device may transmit, over the first communication link and based on the scheduling request, an indication of one or more shared channel resources configured by the base station for the transmission. The first device may receive, over the first communication link, the transmission over the one or more shared channel resources.

Abstract: A UE may select one or more paging attributes for paging reception. The one or more paging attributes may be selected from a set of network supported paging attributes. The UE may transmit, to a network, an indication of the one or more paging attributes for paging reception. The UE may receive, from the network, a response message based on the indication of the one or more paging attributes. The response message may include a first UE group number. The first UE group number may be based on at least the one or more paging attributes. The UE may receive a paging indication including a UE group number. The UE may proceed to receive and decode the paging message associated with the paging indication when the UE group number in the paging indication matches the first UE group number. Otherwise, the UE may safely disregard the paging message.

Abstract: A UE receives a configuration indicating priority levels for each of multiple logical channels. The UE schedules one or more packets for uplink transmission according to a priority level of a logical channel associated with a respective packet of the one or more packets and adjusts scheduling in response to a residual delay budget of a packet exceeding a delay threshold. The UE transmits the uplink transmission.
