Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for scheduling multiple downlink transmissions using a single downlink control transmission in a wireless communication system. A wireless device may determine a beam configuration for use for receiving multiple downlink transport blocks scheduled by a single downlink control transmission. In some instances, the wireless device may be configured to skip one or more control channel monitoring occasions that overlap with the downlink transport blocks. The wireless device may provide hybrid automatic repeat request feedback for the downlink transport blocks.

Abstract: A network-controlled repeater (NCR) may receive configuration information from a base station to configure one or more receive (Rx) beams and corresponding time-domain resources for potential reception from one or more user equipments (UEs). The NCR may monitor for reception of a physical uplink channel or signal from the one or more UEs on the configured one or more Rx beams on the corresponding time-domain resources and determine that the physical uplink channel or signal is not received for at least a threshold amount of time. Additionally, the NCR may determine to refrain from at least one of additional monitoring for reception of the physical uplink channel or signal from the one or more UEs or transmission of one or more synchronization signal block (SSBs) to the one or more UEs for a duration of time.

Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing downlink and uplink scheduling in communication above 52.6 GHz. For example, some aspects of this disclosure relate to a base station. The base station includes a transceiver configured to communicate over a wireless network with a user equipment (UE) and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The processor determines that the communication between the base station and the UE is in a frequency range above 52.6 GHz. In response to the determination, the processor disables a frequency main resource assignment (FDRA), modifies a Resource Block Group (RBG) size, or modifies a Resource Indication Value (RIV) determination. The processor generates a Downlink Channel Indicator (DCI) based at least on one or more of the disabled FDRA, the modified RBG size, or the modified RIV determination. The processor transmits, using the transceiver, the DCI to the UE.
