Abstract: Systems and methods for beam failure recovery (BFR) are disclosed herein. A user equipment (UE) receives downlink (DL) reference signal(s) on corresponding beam(s) from a base station. The UE performs beam failure detection (BFD) on such beams used for user data to determine whether a beam failure has occurred, and candidate beam detection (CBD) on such beams not used for user data to identify candidate beams for recovering from the beam failure. The BFD and the CBD are based on both uplink (UL) channel performance considerations and DL channel performance considerations, as determined using the DL reference signal(s), such that a beam failure may be determined in the UL, the DL, or both, and a candidate beam may be identified for UL, DL, or both. The UE sends a beam failure recovery request BFRQ with this information to the base station, and the system changes beams accordingly.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for performing wireless communications including determination of actual time windows for maintaining power consistency and/or phase continuity associated with transmission between a user equipment (UE) and a base station. Techniques for determining the length, begging, and end of such windows are disclosed. A UE and/or base station may use various rules to determine the window(s).

Abstract: Improved positioning resolution and latency may be achieved via physical layer signaling between a mobile device (UE) and a base station. The physical layer procedures may aid target UEs in enhancing their positioning accuracy and latency, and/or reducing network overhead while boosting UE power efficiency. Accordingly, a base station may receive, via physical layer signaling from a UE, a request for positioning-resources, for example in response to a determination that current positioning-resources of the UE need to be adjusted. The base station may responsively transmit, via physical layer signaling to the UE, an indication of adjusted positioning-resources, and may optionally transmit an indication of corresponding allocated grant-resources. The base station may receive, via physical layer signaling from the UE, positioning information resulting from positioning measurements performed by the UE according to the adjusted positioning-resources.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine an offset value to be used to determine reference uplink resources associated with uplink cancellation indications; receive an uplink cancellation indication; and cancel an uplink communication in a set of reference uplink resources, wherein the set of reference uplink resources are determined based at least in part on the offset value and a time domain resource in which the uplink cancellation indication is received. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may identify multiple channel state information (CSI) reports scheduled to be transmitted in a slot on respective physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources. For example, the multiple CSI reports may include one or more CSI reports associated with a first service type and one or more CSI reports associated with a second service type. The UE may select, from the multiple CSI reports, one or more CSI reports to be transmitted in the slot based at least in part on a first priority associated with the first service type and a second priority associated with the second service type. Accordingly, the UE may transmit, in the slot, one or more PUCCH transmissions that include the one or more selected CSI reports. Numerous other aspects are provided.

The UE may then report the CSI measurement to a base station.
