  • Patent number: 11784749
    Abstract: An apparatus may be configured to receive a polar-encoded transmission comprising at least one intermediate node associated with a first configuration of frozen leaf nodes and information leaf nodes. The apparatus may further be configured to apply an FHT to a first set of values associated with a first intermediate node of the at least one intermediate node to generate a second set of values associated with the first intermediate node. The apparatus may also be configured to select, based on the second set of values, one or more paths associated with the first intermediate node for a SSCL decoding. The apparatus may further be configured to calculate a path metric for each of the selected one or more paths associated with the first intermediate node.

  • Publication number: 20230246749
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may identify, for removal from a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) buffer of the wireless communication device, a HARQ process from a plurality of HARQ processes maintained in the HARQ buffer by the wireless communication device, wherein the HARQ process is identified based at least in part on one or more HARQ buffer management parameters. The wireless communication device may remove the HARQ process from the HARQ buffer. Numerous other aspects are described.

  • Patent number: 11683709
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a communication that identifies one or more UE capability parameters for at least one of sounding reference signal reference signal received power measurement or cross-link interference (CLI) received signal strength indication measurement. The UE may receive a CLI measurement configuration that is based at least in part on the one or more UE capability parameters. Numerous other aspects are provided.

  • Patent number: 11678375
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may receive configuration information that indicates a transmission parameter associated with a random access response (RAR) type; transmit a random access message associated with the RAR type; use the transmission parameter to obtain a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) communication that schedules a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) communication that includes a RAR in a medium access control protocol data unit of the PDSCH communication; and obtain or refraining from obtaining the PDSCH communication based at least in part on whether the PDCCH communication is successfully obtained using the transmission parameter. Numerous other aspects are provided.

  • Patent number: 10374676
    Abstract: In general, this disclosure describes techniques for beamforming using limited feedback that exploit the spatio-temporal channel correlation and avoid the limitations of codebook-based feedback and Markov chain modeling. In one example, a receiving device includes a plurality of receive antennas for receiving communication information, a memory for storing the communication information, and one or more processors for processing the communication information. The one or more processors are configured to receive, through a wireless communication channel, a pilot signal transmitted by a transmitting device, determine, based on the received pilot signal, channel state feedback comprising a quantized representation of the pilot signal as received at the receiving device, and send, through the wireless communication.
