Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to full-duplex cooperative communication by a first device tethered with a second device communicating with a third device. With the tether, one device between the first device and the second device is designated or selected as a transmitter, and the other device as a receiver. In full-duplex operation, the transmitter may transmit outgoing data concurrent to the receiver receiving incoming data. In an example, one of the first and second devices may have a modem that is used to control the full-duplex communication. The modem controls both transmission and reception. In another example, both devices may have a modem. Each modem may assume responsibility for part of the full-duplex communication by performing some processing before either shipping received data, or transmitting outgoing data. The amount of processing may be split at a link layer. Interference cancellation may mitigate interference from full-duplex operation.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for channel state information (CSI) for multiple transmission reception point (multi-TRP) transmission such as non-coherent joint transmission (NCJT), including determining subband sizes for CSI and rules for Part II CSI omission. A method that can be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a CSI report configuration. The CSI report configuration associated with one or more CSI reference signal (RS) resources, each CSI resource including a set of ports or port groups. The UE selects one or more CSI-RS resources for which to report CSI and determines a subband size for sending a CSI report based, at least in part, on payload of the CSI report. In an example method, the UE can determine whether the UE has sufficient resources for the CSI report and omit at least a portion of the CSI based on the determination.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication.

Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Control information may be transmitted for different TTI lengths. Different control information for the different TTIs may be transmitted using control channel resources that are established for communication of control information, such as a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), for example. Control information for a first TTI may be located in a first set of resources, and control information for a second TTI may be located in a second set of resources. The first set of resources may be located within a first search space that may be searched by a user equipment (UE) to identify the first control information. The second set of resources may be located within a second search space that may be searched by the UE to identify the second control information.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A base station may allocate resources for communication with a user equipment (UE). The resources may include one or more subframes, and each subframe may include one or more shortened transmission time intervals (sTTIs). Each sTTI may be assigned a transmission direction according to a time division duplex (TDD) pattern. Based on traffic needs and/or interference from other UEs and/or base stations, the base station may determine to modify the TDD pattern used for communication. Accordingly, a base station may transmit an indicator in a control message or control region of a TTI or sTTI, to indicate to users that a transmission direction of an sTTI in the TDD pattern is being changed. Subsequently, a user may communicate with the base station according to the reconfigured TDD pattern.

In some aspects, one or more instances of the PUCCH are transmitted across one or more uplink slots or sub-slots based at least in part on the PUCCH repetition factor indicated in the DCI. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described.

In the method, the UE selects a resource for a sidelink transmission based on a network energy-saving (NES) state of a network entity communicating with the UE. The UE further transmits sidelink transmission to another UE using the resource selected based on the NES state of the network entity. The method enables adaptive sidelink resource allocation and configuration in different NES states of the base station. It improves the energy efficiency of wireless communication.

Abstract: Aspects presented herein may enhance a HARQ feedback operation to improve data retransmissions by using tri-state HARQ feedback, and may enable a UE to construct a codebook for tri-state HARQ feedback.

The UE generates HARQ feedback for at least one of a received PDCCH or a received PDSCH on the DL carrier based on the determination whether the DL carrier is configured with the tri-state HARQ feedback. The UE transmits the generated HARQ feedback.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may identify uplink (UL) control information (UCI) to transmit during a subframe. The UE may then select a UL channel on which to transmit the UCI based on whether a shared data and control UL channel employs contention-based scheduling. For example, multiple UEs could contend for access to the same semi-persistently scheduled (SPS) physical UL shared channel (PUSCH). Each UE may utilize a different demodulation reference (DMRS) signal cyclic shift to identify their transmissions. In some cases, some UCI, such as channel state information (CSI), may be transmitted on a contention-based PUSCH, while other UCI, such as acknowledgement information, may be transmitted on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH). In some cases, the channel selection may be based on a configuration received from a base station.

An example method generally includes receiving a physical random access channel (PRACH) signal from a first user equipment (UE) on a first narrowband region within a wider system bandwidth and transmitting, in response to the PRACH signal, a random access response (RAR) signal in a first search space in a second narrowband region in at least a first subframe.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A transmitting device may transmit an expiration indication to a receiving device as part of a scheduling message for a transport block. The expiration indication may provide information related to an expiration time for the transport block. If the expiration time is reached prior to successful reception by a receiving device, the receiving device may assume that the transport block has expired and may refrain from transmitting a retransmission grant, or may empty a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARM) buffer associated with the transport block. If the transmitting device fails to successfully receive an indication from the receiving device of a successful reception of the transport block prior to the expiration period, the transmitting device may also assume that the transport block has expired.
