Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A communication device, such as a customer premises equipment (CPE) may include or otherwise be in communication with a cellular modem and a wireless local area network (WLAN) access point (AP). The CPE may receive a first indication of a bandwidth part (BWP) configuration identifying an active BWP for the wireless communication. The CPE may send a second indication to switch to the active BWP for the wireless communication based on the BWP configuration. The CPE may communicate with stations (STAs) served by the CPE based on the active BWP. Additionally or alternatively, when the CPE detects a need for additional bandwidth, the CPE can request for additional bandwidth parts (e.g., BWPs).

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a control message indicating a resource configuration for uplink and downlink transmissions. The UE may determine an uplink buffer threshold for a modem buffer of the UE based on the resource configuration. The UE may transmit, to the base station, a feedback request message requesting that the base station provide feedback for at least one previously transmitted uplink packet based on a comparison of an amount of previously transmitted uplink data and scheduled uplink data stored in the modem buffer relative to the uplink buffer threshold. The UE may receive, based on transmitting the feedback request message, a feedback response message corresponding to a first previously transmitted uplink packet of the at least one previously transmitted uplink packet.

Abstract: Aspects are provided which allow a UE to trigger initiation of an SR procedure in response to a decrease in an amount of received data or uplink grants following a measurement gap. The UE receives data from a first base station. The UE performs a measurement of a downlink signal from a second base station based on a measurement configuration. The UE transmits a scheduling request in response to a decrease in at least one of an amount of received downlink data or a number of received grants to transmit uplink data after the measurement is performed. As a result, inefficient data stalls caused by erroneous DRX determinations by a base station may be avoided.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for coordinating sleep modes between a wireless local area network (WLAN) access point (AP) and a cellular modem of an access point. In one aspect, the access point may obtain, from the cellular modem, information relating to a radio resource control (RRC) state transition or one or more power-saving events of the cellular modem and may select a power mode for the WLAN AP of the access device in accordance with the obtained information. In some implementations, selecting the power mode for the WLAN AP may include configuring the WLAN AP to either accept or reject a sleep mode request from a station (STA) served by the WLAN AP. As such, the access device may communicate with the STA using the WLAN AP in accordance with the accepted or rejected sleep mode request.

Abstract: Wireless communication systems and methods related to radio link control (RLC) transmissions are provided. A first wireless communication device transmits a sequence of protocol data units (PDUs). The first wireless communication device receives a first reception status report for a first portion of a receiver buffer window used for receiving the sequence of PDUs from a second wireless communication device. The first wireless communication device receives a second reception status report for a second portion of the receiver buffer window, the second portion being different from the first portion, from the second wireless communication device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for multicast communications that originate at a wide area network (WAN) using a first RAT to be provided to a local area network (LAN) that uses a second RAT that is used to complete the multicast communications to a user equipment (UE). A scheduler of the second RAT may use one or more parameters associated with the multicast communications to prioritize transmission of the multicast data to one or more UEs. The scheduler of the second RAT may prioritize the multicast communications with other communications of the second RAT based on one or more of a number of clients served, a quality of service (QoS) or bandwidth of the multicast communications, a capability of the UEs, one or more other data flows, a feedback scheme associated with the multicast communications, or any combinations thereof.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for broadcast communications that originate at a wide area network to be provided to a local area network (LAN), that uses a different radio access technology, to complete the broadcast communications to a user equipment (UE). A device that receives the broadcast communications, such as a customer premises equipment (CPE) may decode broadcast data from the broadcast communications and provide the broadcast data to a LAN scheduler along with one or more parameters associated with the broadcast data. The LAN scheduler may establish a separate background access category (AC) queue for the broadcast data, and may transmit data from the broadcast AC queue based on one or more threshold values.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) to adaptively transition between modes of an adaptive receive diversity (ARD) antenna management configuration. In some cases, the UE may determine to transition from an ARD disallowed mode to an ARD standby mode in response to receiving a burst of downlink grants. The UE may dynamically update one or more criterion for transitioning between the ARD disallowed mode and the ARD standby mode according to a pattern of received downlink grants. For example, the UE may adjust a threshold quantity of downlink grants which constitutes a burst based on a downlink scheduling rate (DSR) of one or more prior ARD standby durations. In some cases, the UE may identify a fallback condition to transition from the ARD standby mode to the ARD disallowed mode.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support mechanisms for identifying hyper frame number (HFN) desynchronization conditions and/or for triggering HFN resynchronization in a wireless communication system. In aspects, an HFN desynchronization condition is identified based on Ethernet frame validation. For example, aspects of the present disclosure provide mechanisms for validating and Ethernet frame. An HFN desynchronization condition is identified or detected when an Ethernet frame is determined to be corrupt based on the Ethernet frame validation in accordance with aspects herein. In some aspects, such as in Ethernet header compression (EHC) protocol implementations, an HFN desynchronization condition may be identified based on a determination that a deciphered context identification (CID) is not a valid CID (e.g., is not a CID in a set of valid CIDs).

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications by a node. The node receives a plurality of data packets belonging to a protocol data unit (PDU) set. Each of the plurality of data packets is associated with a dynamic priority.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration for a multicast or broadcast radio bearer (MRB) in a radio link control (RLC) acknowledged mode (AM). The UE may determine an adjustment of an RLC AM transmission window of a base station. The RLC AM transmission window may be associated with retransmission of RLC packets associated with the MRB. The UE may synchronize an RLC AM reception window of the UE with the RLC AM transmission window based at least in part on determining the adjustment of the RLC AM transmission window of the base station. The RLC AM reception window may be associated with reassembly of RLC packets associated with the MRB. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive control information that identifies criteria to use for determining a delivery status of a protocol data unit (PDU) set that includes multiple PDUs. The PDU set may be associated with an application layer of the UE. Accordingly, the UE may receive at least a portion of the PDU set, and may determine the delivery status of the PDU set based on the received portion of the PDU set and the criteria identified by the control information. The delivery status of the PDU set may refer to whether the PDU set was successfully delivered to the UE. The delivery status of the PDU set may be based on a quantity of bits or PDUs in the received portion of the PDU set, a threshold quantity of bits or PDUs, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) determine that at least one packet of a set of packets for a downlink message is unsuccessfully received at a radio link control (RLC) layer of the UE due to a specific situation of a set of specific situations and may transmit the NACK message based on the missing packet (s) on an as needed basis rather than waiting for a timer to expire (e.g., a fast NACK mechanism). In some examples, the specific situations may include the UE missing packets after a measurement gap, missing packets based on wake up latencies for a discontinuous reception mode of the UE, missing packets due to interference from reference signals transmitted by neighboring cells, missing packets due to the UE not decoding retransmissions that have a same redundancy version (RV) of a downlink message, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) communication having a new data indicator (NDI) value for a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process. The UE may start a HARQ state discard timer based at least in part on receiving the first PDCCH communication, wherein a duration of the HARQ state discard timer is based at least in part on one or more conditions. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may selectively determine to decode a downlink shared channel multicast transmission based on whether the downlink shared channel includes a retransmission of an initial multicast transmission. A base station may transmit a message in a downlink control channel to indicate if the downlink shared channel is carrying the retransmission of the initial multicast transmission. For example, the base station may transmit a group random network temporary identifier, downlink control information with a retransmission indicator bit, or both to indicate if the downlink shared channel is carrying the retransmission. In some cases, the message in the downlink control channel may be received at a layer one (L1) of the UE, and the downlink shared channel transmission may be decoded at L1 of the UE and sent to a layer two (L2) of the UE for processing.
