Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may selectively determine to decode a downlink shared channel multicast transmission based on whether the downlink shared channel includes a retransmission of an initial multicast transmission. A base station may transmit a message in a downlink control channel to indicate if the downlink shared channel is carrying the retransmission of the initial multicast transmission. For example, the base station may transmit a group random network temporary identifier, downlink control information with a retransmission indicator bit, or both to indicate if the downlink shared channel is carrying the retransmission. In some cases, the message in the downlink control channel may be received at a layer one (L1) of the UE, and the downlink shared channel transmission may be decoded at L1 of the UE and sent to a layer two (L2) of the UE for processing.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described to indicate a transmission scheme configuration for a message and whether the message is a retransmission or new transmission. In a first example, a base station may configure a subset of one or more feedback process identifiers (IDs) for multicast messages. In such cases, if a grant includes a feedback process ID associated with one of the reserved IDs, the message scheduled by the grant may be a retransmission of a multicast message. In a second example, feedback process IDs may be dynamically allocated to multicast or unicast messages via a corresponding grant. A message may be identified as a new transmission or retransmission of a unicast message or multicast message based on a combination of an ID associated with the grant and a new data indicator (NDI) of the grant.

In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration indicating a plurality of semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) communications associated with a multicast service.

Abstract: A method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) calculates a propagation delay for sending a message from the UE to a network node, such as a base station, via non-terrestrial communications. The method sends a random access preamble to the base station while accounting for the calculated propagation delay. The method starts a random access response (RAR) window at a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) occasion after twice the calculated propagation delay from sending the random access preamble. The method receives a random access response (RAR) message from the base station during the RAR window. The RAR message includes an uplink grant indicating an uplink shared channel resource. Further, the method sends an uplink message to arrive during the uplink shared channel resource while accounting for the calculated propagation delay.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications systems may support multicast communications, which may relate to a multicast service (for example, a multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS)). A communications device such as a UE may transition from an inactive or idle state to a connected state to receive multicast services and provide feedback to the network. A wireless network may implement different techniques to trigger the UE to transition from the idle or inactive state into the RRC connected state to receive multicast services. For example, the UE may receive a trigger message that indicates that the one or more multicast services are available for use by the UE, and the UE may determine whether to transition to an RRC connected state to receive the multicast services based on the trigger message.
