  • Patent number: 11596004
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for dynamically activating and deactivating random-access channel (RACH) occasions (ROs). A base station may configure one or more ROs on which a user equipment (UE) can transmit RACH messages. If higher priority signaling (e.g., downlink signaling or uplink signaling) overlaps in time with the ROs, the base station may deactivate one or more ROs to decrease the likelihood of self-interference or cross-link interference (e.g., if the UE or the base station are operating in full duplex mode). The base station may deactivate or activate ROs by indicating indices for one or more ROs, indices for one or more synchronization signal blocks (SSBs), a pattern of ROs, some or all ROs within a time period, some or all ROs until a next downlink signal updates the RO configuration or activates ROs, or any combination thereof.

  • Patent number: 11596003
    Abstract: A UE may receive, from a base station/TRP, a configuration for a beam pair including an UL beam and a DL beam and transmit a RACH message via the UL beam while receiving DL information via the DL beam. The UE and/or the base station/TRP may be configured to operate in a FD mode. In aspects, the UE may transmit a RACH preamble based on a first mode of transmission. After a threshold time delay measured from the transmission of the RACH preamble, the UE may retransmit the RACH preamble based on a second mode of transmission. The second mode of transmission may be a same mode of transmission or a different mode of transmission from the first mode of transmission. Each mode of transmission may be based on one or more of TDM, FDM, or SDM.

  • Publication number: 20230055885
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit signaling to a first network entity indicating a location of the UE and a measured reference signal receive power (RSRP). The UE may receive an indication of a time division duplex (TDD) configuration and a slot format indicator (SFI) for communications between the UE and the first network entity based on the RSRP or location. In some cases, the first network entity may receive signaling indicating a set of resource configurations from a second network entity. The first network entity may select a resource configuration (e.g., for communications with the UE) from the set based on a measured RSRP indicated by the UE or a location of the UE. The UE and the base station (e.g., the wireless device and the first network entity) may communicate according to the indicated or selected resource configurations.

  • Publication number: 20230029858
    Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to resolving conflicts between full-duplex signals are provided. A base station may schedule resources for a UE or plurality of UEs. The scheduled resources may include simultaneous uplink and downlink resources. The scheduled resources may utilize beams which if used would cause excessive interference. As such, a conflict resolution action may be performed by the BS and UE to mitigate any problems arising from using both incompatible beams simultaneously. Conflict resolution actions may include dropping one of the signals. Conflict resolution actions may include and changing one or both beam configurations for the signals. Conflict resolution actions may be based on predetermined rules or may be based on an indication from the base station.

  • Publication number: 20230034421
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive one or more messages scheduling resources allocated for one or more uplink transmissions that at least partially overlap in time with scheduled resources allocated for one or more downlink transmissions. In such cases, the UE may use different communication parameters for overlapping and non-overlapping resources. For example, the UE may receive a configuration of a first set of communication parameters that are configured for an overlapping portion of the resources and a second set of communication parameters that are configured for a non-overlapping portion of the resources. The UE may apply the first set of communication parameters and the second set of communication parameters to the uplink and downlink resources for transmitting or receiving the one or more uplink and downlink communications.

  • Publication number: 20230034640
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) or a base station may be configured to indicate that a transmission occasion is empty while operating in a full-duplex mode. In some examples, the UE may transmit, to the base station, an indication that an uplink transmission occasion (for example, a configured grant transmission occasion) will not be used by the UE for transmitting an uplink communication. In some other examples, the base station may transmit, to the UE, an indication a downlink transmission occasion (for example, semi-persistent scheduling transmission occasion) will not be used by the base station for transmitting a downlink communication. If uplink or downlink transmission occasions are empty, the UE and the base station may each update parameters to operate in a half-duplex mode.
