  • Patent number: 11937197
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described to support using one of multiple types of synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) to perform one or more management procedures. A base station may configure and transmit one or more SSBs of second type that are smaller than SSBs of a first type. For instance, SSBs of a second type may include a first subset of signals and may exclude a second subset of the signals that are included in an SSB of the first type. An SSB of the second type may be transmitted in an active bandwidth region used for communications between a user equipment (UE) and the base station. The UE may receive an SSB of the second type in an active bandwidth region, may perform one or more measurements using the SSB of the second type, and may perform one or more management procedures.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) are described. A UE may operate by asynchronously transmitting code division multiple access (CDMA) uplink signals to a network entity. The UE may transmit the CDMA signals via an uplink channel that may be shared with orthogonal frequency multiplexing (OFDM) signaling transmitted by one or more other UEs. The UE may indicate to the network entity a capability for communicating with CDMA waveforms and may use CDMA waveforms based on transmitting the indication. The UE may also receive one or more parameters associated with using the CDMA waveforms, and may use CDMA waveforms based on the one or more parameters.

  • Publication number: 20240064679
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may obtain updated location information, and determine a time difference between a previous communication with a network and a scheduled uplink transmission. Based on the determined time difference, the UE may determine a timing advance (TA) component of a TA value to apply for the uplink transmission, and transmit an uplink message in the uplink transmission according to the determined TA value and the location information. In some examples, the time difference may be based on a first duration between the uplink transmission and a previous uplink transmission, a second duration between the uplink transmission and a previous TA command received from the network, or both. In some examples, the determined TA value may be based on additional parameters, such as an autonomous adjustment step, an aggregate adjustment rate, a scaling factor, or any combination thereof.

  • Patent number: 11889487
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. For example, a user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a base station, an indication of a capability of the UE to switch from monitoring a set of frequency resources according to a first subcarrier spacing (SCS) to monitoring the set of frequency resources according to a second SCS, less than the first SCS. The indication may indicate an amount of time for the UE to switch between SCSs. The UE may receive, from the base station, signaling that indicates a configuration for monitoring the set of frequency resources according to the second SCS (e.g., a configuration for a reduced SCS window). The UE may switch from monitoring the set of frequency resources according to the first SCS to monitoring the set of frequency resources according to the second SCS based on receiving the configuration for monitoring the set of frequency resources.
