  • Patent number: 11653347
    Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for coexistence of multiple uplink control channel formats for wireless communication with power spectral density limitation are disclosed herein. A user equipment (UE) may communicate, with a base station (BS) over a random access channel on a first set of random access resources or a second set of random access resources, a random access request based on a comparison between an intended transmit power of the random access request and a reference transmit power threshold. The UE may communicate, on a first set of uplink resources, a control message for initial network access when the random access request is communicated on the first set of random access resources. The UE also may communicate, on a second set of uplink resources, the control message when the random access request is communicated on the second set of random access resources.

  • Patent number: 11617181
    Abstract: Aspects of a multi-stage multi-PDSCH grant are provided which allow a UE to obtain data in a downlink data burst with more scheduling flexibility than single-stage multi-PDSCH grants. A base station provides the UE in a downlink control channel a first portion of downlink control information which indicates a plurality of downlink data transmissions. The UE monitors the downlink control channel for the first portion of downlink control information. Afterwards, the base station sends to the UE a second portion of the downlink control information including parameters for one of the downlink data transmissions. The base station may also send the UE a third portion of the downlink control information including additional parameters for the downlink data transmission. After the UE obtains the portions, the UE decodes the one of the downlink data transmissions indicated at least in part by the first and second portion of the downlink control information.

  • Patent number: 11601967
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a grant scheduling a downlink transmission of a set of configurable downlink transmissions. The downlink transmission may include reference slots corresponding to offset values associated with one or more feedback occasions. The UE may construct a feedback codebook based on a first quantity of slots in the set of configurable downlink transmissions, a second quantity of reference slots in the set of configurable downlink transmissions, and a third quantity of configurable offset values associated with one or more feedback occasions. Based on a size of the feedback codebook, the UE may generate feedback bits for reporting whether the UE successfully received a downlink transmission in corresponding slots. In some examples, the UE may identify a slot with a symbol reserved for an uplink transmission, and skip generating a corresponding feedback bit for the identified slot.

  • Patent number: 11595156
    Abstract: Timing considerations for autonomous uplink (AUL) downlink feedback information (AUL-DFI) is disclosed. With the flexible timeline for new radio (NR) operations, signaling of the processing timeline may be used for the served user equipments (UEs) to properly interpret the acknowledgement information in the AUL-DFI. The UE receives a signal identifying a minimum processing time of the serving base station to process AUL. Using the knowledge of the minimum processing time, the UE determines which of the outstanding AUL transmissions are accurately addressed in the AUL-DFI and which are still pending. Additional signaling to the UE may instruct the UE when to implement any changes to transmission parameters also signaled via the AUL-DFI. Slots prior to the indicated change time will be transmitted using the current parameters, while slots after the indicated time will use the updated parameters from the AUL-DFI.
