  • Publication number: 20210307049
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for using different configurations for downlink or uplink transmissions associated with different transmission configuration indication (TCI) states (e.g., transmitted on different beams). In one example, a base station may use different configurations for downlink transmissions to a user equipment (UE), and the base station may indicate the different configurations to the UE. For instance, the base station may transmit downlink control information (DCI) indicating a baseline configuration and other configurations as a delta of the baseline configuration. In another example, a base station may dynamically indicate a timing advance to a UE (e.g., in DCI or flow control feedback) for an uplink transmission from the UE associated with a TCI state, and the UE may use the dynamically indicated timing advance for uplink transmissions associated with the TCI state.

  • Publication number: 20210306948
    Abstract: A method of wireless communications by a sidelink UE (user equipment) includes receiving a first signal as part of a discontinuous reception (DRX) wake-up procedure at the beginning of a sidelink discontinuous reception (DRX) ON duration. The method also includes transmitting a response to the first signal as part of a DRX wake-up procedure. The method further includes starting a timer after sending the response. The method still further includes entering a sleep state upon not receiving a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH) or physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) before the timer expires.

  • Publication number: 20210258942
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for training a beam for multiple component carriers (CCs) for concurrent communications in a wireless communications system associated with limited user equipment (UE) capabilities. The beam training may improve a receive or transmit beam for two or more CCs as a group that share an RF chain.

The UE may also receive, via a second receive beam, a second reference signal on the group of CCs over a second symbol. The UE may select a receive beam for a subsequent communication based on determining a value of a parameter for each of the first and the second receive beam.

  • Publication number: 20210243734
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to techniques for dynamically updating transmission configuration information (TCI) state and spatial relation information. For example, downlink control information (DCI) or media access control control element (MAC-CE) is used to update a large number of TCI states. As such, high efficiency, such as in terms of low overhead or usage of memory, is achieved with an increase of the upper limit of configured trigger state numbers. The DCI or MAC-CE is used to dynamically update the content in the large number of TCI states.

  • Publication number: 20210227436
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may establish a first connection with a source base station. The UE may determine that a handover procedure is being performed for establishing a second connection with a target base station. The UE may monitor, during a monitoring period instantiated at a physical layer of a protocol stack of the UE, for a control signal acknowledging success of the handover procedure from a target base station. The UE may transmit, based at least in part on a result of the monitoring during the monitoring period, a physical layer signal or a medium access control layer signal to the source base station indicating that the handover procedure was unsuccessful based at least in part on a failure to successfully receive and decode the control signal.
