Abstract: A method includes cellular vehicle-to-everything (CV2X) allocation collision detection and reporting. An allocation collision detection module detects control channel allocations from transmitting user equipments (UEs) in each time period of a group of time periods. A quantity of detected control channel allocations is determined in each time period. A report is then built and transmitted to at least one of the transmitting UEs. The report indicates collisions in each time period, based on the quantity and a location of the detected control channels in each time period, as well as based on a type of UE interface.

Abstract: A method of wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a first collision report (s), each first collision report indicating at least one first monitored subset of sidelink resources that were monitored by a remote sidelink UE. The method also includes transmitting a second collision report indicating allocation collisions detected by the UE on a second monitored subset(s) of sidelink resources. Each of the second monitored subset(s) of sidelink resources differing from each of the first monitored subset(s) of sidelink resources indicated in the received first collision report(s). The second collision report further comprising an indication of each of the second monitored subset(s) of sidelink resources.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The method may include an interference estimation procedure that measures interference from radio access technologies (RATs) different from cellular vehicle to everything (CV2X) on the CV2X network at a user equipment (UE). A UE may record measurements of interference on the CV2X network when no CV2X signal is present during the last symbol of a subframe. Then, the UE may estimate the noise plus interference measured during the empty symbol to improve noise plus interference whitening when decoding a subframe.

The device then transmits the plurality of interleaved code block segments. Other features are also claimed and described.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described to switch between waveform configurations based on an indicated modulation coding scheme (MCS) such that waveform switching may be signaled implicitly. A base station may configure a user equipment (UE) with a hybrid MCS table including MCS indexes associated with a first waveform configuration and MCS indexes associated with a second waveform configuration. The base station may schedule resources for an uplink transmission for the UE and may indicate an MCS index associated with the uplink transmission, using index from the MCS table. The UE may select a waveform configuration for the uplink transmission based on the MCS index. For example, the UE may compare the MCS index with a threshold MCS index of the hybrid MCS table and determine a waveform configuration associated with the MCS index based on whether the MCS index falls above or below the threshold.

The UE may transmit an indication of the downlink Doppler frequency to the base station. The base station may determine the uplink Doppler frequency based on the downlink Doppler frequency. The base station may use the uplink Doppler frequency to select an uplink demodulation reference signal (DMRS) configuration for the UE.

Abstract: Aspects of disclosure relate to a UE reporting to a gNB time delays and phases of pilot signals received via multiple transmission paths in order for the gNB to pre-equalize a future transmission to the UE. The UE determines a first time delay for receiving a first pilot signal from a gNB via a first path, determines a second time delay for receiving a second pilot signal from the gNB via a second path, and generates a report based on the first time delay and the second time delay. The UE then sends the report to the gNB and receives a multi-TRP signal from the gNB via the first path and the second path, wherein the multi-TRP signal is pre-equalized for transmission based on the report to at least have a same time delay as a shorter one of the first time delay or the second time delay.

Abstract: A transmitting device may select frequency domain resources for an alert transmission based on a severity level of the alert transmission. The transmitting device may determine a severity level of an alert transmission to be transmitted on one or more available channels. The transmitting device may determine a presence of one or more systems configured to transmit on one or more neighbor channels of the one or more available channels. The transmitting device may select, for the alert transmission, frequency domain resources within the one or more available channels based on the presence of the one or more systems and the severity level. The frequency domain resources for a highest severity level transmission are spaced further apart from the one or more neighbor channels in the frequency domain than resources for a lower severity level transmission. The transmitting device may transmit the alert transmission on the frequency domain resources.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may monitor multiple beam pair links (BPLs) including a first BPL currently used by the UE to communicate with a network node (e.g., a base station), and a second BPL. The first BPL comprises a first network beam and a first UE beam, and the second BPL comprises a second network beam and a second UE beam. The UE may decide to switch beams from using the first BPL to using the second BPL based on signaling from the network node or autonomously. When the beam switch is made, the UE switches uplink (UL) transmission from over the first UE beam to over the second UE beam. After the beam switch is made, the UE transmits in the UL over the second UE beam using UL timing adjusted based on the first and second propagation delays.

Abstract: Techniques for wireless communications are described. A demodulation reference signal generated using user information and a noncoherent modulation technique may be communicated between wireless devices. A data sequence may be extracted from the demodulation reference signal based on demodulating the demodulation reference signal using the noncoherent modulation technique and decoding the demodulation reference signal. The data sequence may be used to reconstruct a version of the demodulation reference signal used to descramble a received version of the demodulation reference signal. The descrambled demodulation reference signal may be used to estimate a data channel between a transmitting device and a receiving device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications employing multi-level coding with set partitioning on transmitting side and multi-level sequential decoding on the receiving side for latency minimization are described. In some systems, a transmitting device may transmit a code block group (CBG) to a receiving device including a first set of code blocks associated with a first decoding level and a second set of code blocks associated with a second decoding level. The receiving device may unsuccessfully decode one or more code blocks of the first set or the second set of code blocks and transmit a feedback message to the transmitting device. The transmitting device may determine that the data to be communicated via the CBG is latency-sensitive data and, as such, determine to retransmit both the first set and the second set of code blocks to the receiving device in response to receiving the feedback message.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The following relates more specifically to hierarchical hybrid automatic repeat request (HARM) for multi-level coding with multi-level sequential demodulation and decoding and code block grouping per decoding level. A user equipment (UE) may receive, during a first time period, a transmission from a base station including a first and second code block group (CBG) with codeblocks associated with a first and second decoding level. The UE may fail to decode the first CBG, may not decode the second CBG, may store post processing samples for the second CBG, and may transmit a feedback message to the base station. The base station may retransmit the first CBG and new data on the second CBG in a second time period. The UE may decode the first CBG and use the post processing samples to decode the second CBG from the first time period.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for latency minimization in wireless communications employing multi-level coding and multi-level sequential demodulation and decoding are described. A user equipment (UE) receive a set of codeblock groups in a first time period. Each codeblock group jointly sharing same channel resources may be associated with a respective decoding level of a set of decoding levels. The UE may determine a first outcome for a first codeblock group and a second outcome for a second codeblock group. The UE may then transmit a feedback message that is based on the first outcome and the second outcome. In case that the feedback message indicates that the first outcome or the second outcome is a failed decoding procedure, the UE may receive, in a second time period, a retransmission of all the codeblock groups. These retransmissions may continue on additional time periods until all related codeblock groups are successfully decoded.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for estimating one or more environmental factors at a first user equipment (UE). The one or more environmental factors may be based on estimates of a Doppler spread and a power delay profile (PDP) taken over a set of subsets of a time period, based on multiple signals received from a second UE or a base station over the time period. The first UE may estimate the Doppler spread and PDP for a channel over each of the set of subsets of the time period, and may combine the Doppler spread over the set of subsets and combine the PDP over the set of subsets. The first UE may use the combined Doppler spread and the combined PDP to determine one or more communication parameters for the channel.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves determining base station (BS) beams for communicating between a UE and the BS. The BS may use sensor data or beam management reporting history to assist with determining one or more appropriate beams. The sensor data may include camera images, radar data, or lidar data, and be used to model the cell environment served by the BS. The BS may obtain reporting data from multiple UEs over time indicating the quality of beams received by the UEs at various locations in the cell environment and model the cell environment based on the reporting data. The BS may associate beams with possible UE locations within the cell environment and use the associations to determine beams for communicating with a UE after determining the UE's location.
