  • Patent number: 12382482
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may identify a transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state to use for communications with a network entity after switching between TCI modes (e.g., a joint TCI state mode and a separate TCI states mode for uplink transmission and downlink reception). A UE may autonomously switch between the TCI modes based on a trigger event, and may send an indication to a network entity of the trigger event prior to communicating. A UE may identify a TCI configuration with unconfigured power control parameters. The UE may determine a common power control configuration for communicating with a network entity based on applying a rule to the TCI configuration to determine the power control parameters.

  • Patent number: 12369165
    Abstract: A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) and related apparatus are provided. In the method, the UE receives a configuration of multiple application time values for transmission configuration indication (TCI) state updates. The UE further receives downlink control information (DCI) in a control resource set (CORESET) associated with a first CORESET pool index associated with a first transmission reception point (TRP) and including a transmission configuration indication (TCI) state associated with a second CORESET pool index associated with a second TRP. The UE further transmits acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) feedback to one or more TRPs based on a feedback mode configured for the UE, and applies the TCI state indicated in the DCI following the ACK/NACK feedback based on one of the multiple application time values and the feedback mode.

  • Patent number: 12360194
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a first node receives, from a second node, a plurality of beams. The first node determines a time of arrival of each beam of the plurality of beams. The first node identifies, from the plurality of beams, one or more first beams of interest for a positioning procedure based on the times of arrival of the plurality of beams. The first node determines a first reference timing based on the time of arrival for a given beam among the identified one or more first beams of interest. The first node sends, to the second node, a positioning beacon in accordance with the first reference timing.

  • Patent number: 12363734
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for beamforming in wireless communications. Some implementations more specifically relate to beamforming configurations for multicast communications. A transmitting device may transmit multicast data to multiple receiving devices, concurrently, via a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH). The PDSCH may be preceded by a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). The PDCCH may provide scheduling information for the PDSCH, including a multicast beam associated with the PDSCH and a timing offset or delay between the PDCCH and the PDSCH. A receiving device may determine that the PDSCH contains multicast data based on an indication in the PDCCH. To receive the PDSCH, each receiving device may tune its antennas in a direction of the scheduled multicast beam or a default beam based on the delay between the PDCCH and the PDSCH.
