  • Publication number: 20250150985
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for a network-controlled repeater (NCR) to share power during the simultaneous transmission of a control link and backhaul link. When the total power for transmitting via the control link and the backhaul link are below a maximum power for transmission, the NCR can use the calculated transmission powers for transmitting each link. Otherwise, the NCR can apply a relative priority to the links, a default priority to each link, a stepwise reduction of power, or a power sharing factor. A power sharing technique can be based on whether there is overlap between the links on the same time symbol, where the same or different beams are used for each link, and/or whether a priority flag for an access link is being used. These and many other features and examples are described.

  • Publication number: 20250141597
    Abstract: Systems, methods and instrumentalities are disclosed for decoding data. For example, it may be determined, in a current slot, whether data received in a previous slot is decoded successfully. The data received in the previous slot may be included in a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH). If the data received in the previous slot is not decoded successfully, preemptive multiplexing information may be detected in a first search space. The data received in the previous slot may be decoded, for example, using detected preemptive multiplexing information. The preemptive multiplexing information may be of a current slot. The preemptive multiplexing information may be comprised in a first DCI. A second search space of the current slot may be searched. For example, the second search space may be searched for a second DCI. The first DCI and the second DCI may be different.
