  • Publication number: 20240215046
    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 (HARQ) 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.

  • Patent number: 12021782
    Abstract: Some techniques and apparatuses described herein enable transmission of an uplink control channel in a cross-carrier fashion, where determination of a slot for the transmission is performed based at least in part on a reference component carrier (CC), of a plurality of CCs. For example, the reference CC may be indicated by scheduling information associated with a downlink channel, or may be determined by the UE (e.g., based at least in part on an order associated with the plurality of CCs and availability of a slot for an uplink control channel on the plurality of CCs). In this way, ambiguity with regard to determination of the slot for transmission of the uplink control channel is reduced, thereby providing improved control channel performance, improved resource utilization, and more robust implementation of cross-carrier uplink feedback.
