Abstract: A method of wireless communication by a first user equipment (UE), includes receiving downlink signals from a network device. The method also includes receiving cross-link interference (CLI) to the downlink signals, the cross-link interference originating from a second UE. The method further includes receiving a configuration for a report of multiple differential cross-link interference metric values measured for multiple different cross-link interference resources and an absolute cross-link interference metric value measured for the different CLI resources. The method includes transmitting the report of the differential cross-link interference metric values measured for the different CLI resources.

Abstract: Aspects are provided for generation and transmission of MDMRS which allow matching of nonlinear model impact or properties between DMRS and data in DFT-s-OFDM waveforms as well as CP-OFDM waveforms. A UE transmits, to a network entity, an MDMRS generated from a DMRS. The MDMRS has a PAPR distribution matching a PAPR distribution of a signal including data in an uplink channel. A target PAPR of the MDMRS is based on a modulation scheme of the data. The UE also transmits the data in the uplink channel, where the uplink channel includes a PUCCH or a PUSCH. As a result of the ability of MDMRS to match the nonlinear impact of DMRS and PUSCH or PUCCH, the network entity may compensate for any EVM that may occur as a result of PAPR reduction by a nonlinear operator of the UE, and communication performance may thereby be improved.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. To support communications across a wideband, a base station and user equipment (UE) may communicate across the wideband using a set of sub-bands that span the carrier bandwidth (e.g., the wideband). In some cases, the UE may transmit, to the base station, an indication of a capability of the UE to communicate a wideband communication with the base station via the set of sub-band based communications with the base station. The UE may receive, from the base station (and, in some cases based on the capability of the UE), a configuration for communicating with the base station in the carrier bandwidth using the set of sub-bands. Then, the UE may communicate with the base station in the carrier bandwidth using one or more of the set of sub-bands in accordance with the configuration.

In one aspect, a base transmits, to a group of UEs, a configuration that configures the group of UEs to simultaneously transmit one or more group-common reference signals and to simultaneously transmit one or more gradient vectors associated with a federated learning procedure. The network entity receives, from the group of UEs, the one or more group-common reference signals and the one or more gradient vectors based on the configuration via multiple channels. The network entity calculates an average gradient vector based on the one or more group-common reference signals and the one or more gradient vectors.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may establish, with a network entity, a wireless connection that uses a set of symbols per transmission time interval (TTI) for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communications, where each symbol of the set of symbols may correspond to a fast Fourier transform (FFT) window and may include a guard interval (GI) portion and a data portion within the FFT window. In some examples, the UE may receive a control message indicating at least one parameter associated with a power offset between a data signal of the set of symbols and a reference signal of the set of symbols that is associated with the data signal. As such, the UE may communicate with the network entity, the data signal, and the reference signal according to the indicated power offset using the set of symbols.

The network node may transmit, to the UE, and the UE may receive, from the network node, an indication of approval of the request to extend the first DRX ON period. The UE and the network node may delay a beginning of the existing DRX OFF period by a first time period based on the approval of the request to extend the first DRX ON period.

Abstract: Various aspects of the disclosure relate to power control for independent links. For example, power control at a device may be based on transmissions on multiple links. In some aspects, the independent links may involve a first device (e.g., a user equipment) communicating via different independent links with different devices (e.g., transmit receive points (TRPs) or sets of TRPs). For example, the first device may communicate with a second device (e.g., a TRP) via a first link and communicate with a third device (e.g., a TRP) via a second link. In some scenarios, power control for the first device may be based on power control commands received on multiple links. In some scenarios, a power control constraint may be met taking into account the transmission power on multiple links.

Abstract: A training signal generator for forming an input signal for an ADC-under-test includes a one-bit DAC and an analog low-pass filter. The one-bit DAC converts a binary sequence into a DAC output signal that is then filtered by the analog low-pass filter to form an ADC input signal. The ADC-under-test converts the ADC input signal into an ADC output signal. A digital low-pass filter converts the binary sequence into a plurality of samples. A digital signal processing system processes the plurality of samples and the ADC output signal to form an estimate of the ADC input signal. An ADC linearizer may then be trained to characterize a non-linear impairment of the ADC-under-test responsive to a comparison of the estimate of the ADC input signal and the ADC output signal.

The UE then performs, based on the aggregation of the multiple UEs, an MDA operation via a physical (PHY) or medium access control (MAC) layer shared among the multiple UEs. The MDA operation includes one or more of beam management, channel state information (CSI) measurement or reporting, radio resource management (RRM), cell selection or reselection, or a positioning operation.

Numerous other aspects are described.
