Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for channel state information (CSI) for multiple transmission reception point (mTRP) scenarios. The techniques may provide for dynamic interference measurement for mTRP CSI. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a CSI reporting configuration configuring the UE with a plurality of CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) resources for channel measurement (CMRs) and a plurality of resources for interference measurement (IMRs). The method includes determining an indicator based on an association between one or more CMRs and one or more IMRs. A codepoint of the indicator is associated with an IMR or a set of IMRs by an order of the IMRs or the set of IMRs in the configuration, and is associated with a CMR, a CMR pair, or a part of the ports of a CMR. The method generally includes performing CSI measurement based on the association.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that relate to a two-step random access procedure. Generally, the described techniques allow different configurations for a first message of a random access procedure depending on a connected-state of the user equipment (UE) performing the random access procedure. A base station may transmit configuration information to the UE and the UE may use the configuration information to determine resources, coding, block size, or other factors for transmitting the first message based on the radio resource control (RRC) connected state of the UE. The UE may then monitor for a random access response from the base station based on the first message from the UE.

In some cases, a UE may transmit sounding reference signals (SRS) to a network entity, receive information indicating at least one of a set of one or more frequency domain (FD) bases and linear combination coefficients, determined based on the SRS transmission, determine subband precoding based at least in part on linear combinations of the FD bases based on the linear combination coefficients, and transmit a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) with the subband precoding.

Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to multi-transmission-reception point (multi-TRP) precoding matrix indication (PMI) operations are provided. A user equipment (UE) receives a configuration indicating a precoder size parameter for a plurality of transmission-reception points (TRPs). The UE receives, from a first TRP of the plurality of TRPs, a first reference signal. The UE receives, from a second TRP of the plurality of TRPs, a second reference signal, the second TRP being different from first TRP. The UE transmits, to the first TRP or the second TRP, a channel state information (CSI) report including a first feedback component based on the first reference signal and a second feedback component based on the second reference signal, where a combined payload size of the first feedback component and the second feedback component is based on the precoder size parameter.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, signaling indicating a channel state information (CSI) report configuration. The CSI report configuration may indicate a mapping between one or more CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) resources or one or more CSI-RS port groups and one or more antenna panels or antenna subpanels of the base station. The UE may generate CSI feedback based on the mapping. In some cases, the UE may generate the CSI feedback based on multiple hypotheses that correspond to CSI-RS measurements. In some examples, the multiple hypotheses may include a set of hypothesis groups based on one or more antenna panels or antenna subpanels of the base station. The UE may transmit a message reporting the CSI feedback to the base station.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless device may map a transport block (TB) across multiple component carriers (CCs) associated with at least one slot of time-frequency resources. The wireless device may transmit the TB based at least in part on mapping the TB. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Wireless communications systems may employ one or more scheduling constraints to support efficient utilization of techniques for intra-device handling of overlapping scheduled uplink transmissions (e.g., intra-device dynamic resource cancelation and multiplexing) as well as inter-device handling of overlapping scheduled uplink transmissions (e.g., inter-device dynamic resource cancelation and multiplexing). Scheduling constraints may define how a device may apply intra-device and inter-device multiplexing and cancelation rules for various scenarios. For example, a device may apply intra-UE cancelation rules before inter-device cancelation rules. In some examples, later-received grants or uplink preemption indications (ULPIs) may not change a device's previously established decision to drop an uplink transmission.

The apparatus then determines at least one of a time density or a frequency density for the PT-RS based on inter-slot repetition of a transmission. The apparatus then receives or transmits the PT-RS based on the at least one of the time density or the frequency density determined based on the inter-slot repetition of the transmission.

A method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) is provided. The method generally includes determining a resource allocation pattern that defines resources, from a plurality of configured resource allocation patterns, wherein at least one of the plurality of configured resource allocation patterns comprises a plurality of resource elements with at least a first resource element associated with a first resource allocation restriction and at least a second resource element associated with a second resource allocation restriction and communicating based on the determined resource allocation pattern.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described to enable a user equipment (UE) to determine a rate-matching scheme or a feedback scheme for overlapping downlink transmission resources. A collision handling scheme may enable the UE to de-rate match a second, higher priority downlink shared channel independent of another rate-matching pattern or indicator for other shared channels, such as a first, overlapping downlink shared channel. The UE may determine to de-rate match the second channel around resources indicated within control signaling or higher-layer signaling associated with the second channel. The collision scheme may provide for the UE to generate an acknowledgement bit for feedback for one or more portions of the first channel that are preempted by the second channel and generate other feedback for non-preempted portions. A base station may keep track of preempted resources and may retransmit preempted portions of the first channel.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communication systems configured to provide user equipment (UE)-specific slot structures based on the individual propagation delay experienced by each UE. In some examples, the duration of uplink transmissions for a particular UE within a slot may be configured based on the propagation delay between the base station and that particular UE. For example, the duration of an uplink burst and/or an uplink traffic transmission may be configured based on the propagation delay. In addition, a downlink burst within a slot may be configured for a particular UE on the propagation delay experienced by that UE. Downlink traffic transmissions may further be configured for the cell based on the maximum propagation delay experienced by the UEs in the cell.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which beamforming may be configured at a user equipment (UE) for narrowband communications. The UE may be a narrowband UE that may provide an indication to a base station that the UE is capable of performing beamforming communication for a unicast channel transmission. Such an indication may be provided in response to the UE receiving a non-beamformed broadcast channel transmission from the base station via a first carrier. The base station may receive the indication and configure the UE with a beamformed narrowband communications scheme. Such a beamformed formed narrowband communications scheme may be used for narrowband downlink shared channel communications, narrowband downlink control channel communications, or combinations thereof. In some cases, beamformed communications may be configured on a different carrier than the first carrier. The base station and UE may then communicate using beamformed transmissions.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for power control for dual connectivity. A UE may identify a power control configuration that determines priorities for uplink transmissions over multiple component carriers and one or more base stations. The UE may identify a union of semi-static uplink or flexible transmissions between multiple component carriers employed by one cell group, such as a master cell group and a secondary cell group, and determine a configured power level for the cell group. The UE may then determine whether to transmit an uplink transmission on a cell of another cell group, based on the power control configuration and the configured power level.
