Abstract: The described techniques may support multi-rank sidelink communications that may be reduced to single rank communications if failure to decode the multi-rank sidelink communications occurs. A user equipment (UE) may transmit a first message including first data using a first precoding vector applied for a first layer and a second precoding vector applied for a second layer. If the first message is not decoded successfully, the UE may transmit a second message including second data using a third precoding vector applied for the first layer and a fourth precoding vector applied for the second layer, where the second data is derived from the first data, the third precoding vector is derived from the second precoding vector, and the fourth precoding vector is derived from the first precoding vector. The second message may effectively reduce a rank of the first message when the channel is rank deficient.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a network entity, a capability message that indicates a set of one or more wake-up signal parameters associated with one or more wake-up signal waveform types supported by the UE. The network entity may transmit an indication of a set of wake-up signals to be monitored by the UE based on the capability message. The UE may monitor for the wake-up signals accordingly.

Each of the UEs may monitor, using a first transceiver associated with a first mode of operation, for a group wake-up signal including a request for each UE of the group of UEs to activate a second transceiver associated with a second mode of operation and higher power consumption than the first transceiver.

The UE implements the technique to detect that a decoding failure of a first multiple input multiple output (MIMO) transmission, sent by a network entity on a first number of layers, is caused by a rank mismatch.

The UE then combines samples from the first MIMO transmission and a second MIMO transmission, sent by the network entity using a space-time code (STC) with a second number of layers in response to the rank correction request, to recover data lost due to the decoding failure.
