Abstract: A method for wireless communication includes validating a PUR configuration in a NTN based on location-related information associated with a satellite. For example, a UE may determine, based on location-related information of a satellite in a non-terrestrial network, whether a preconfigured uplink resource (PUR) configuration is valid. The UE may also transmit, to a base station (BS) via the satellite in response to determining that the PUR configuration is valid, a communication signal in a PUR. For example, the UE may determine, based on the location-related information associated with the satellite, if the parameter satisfies the threshold, and transmit UL data in a PUR occasion based on the determined parameter satisfying the threshold.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A non-terrestrial network (NTN) cell may transmit a pre-paging message for which a user equipment (UE) may monitor based on a synchronization signal block (SSB) and a pre-paging configuration. For example, the UE may be configured with a pre-paging configuration for one or more NTN cells that may be used to identify an SS and a CORESET in which to monitor for a pre-paging message. The UE may identify the pre-paging configuration for a specific NTN cell based on a cell identifier for the NTN cell identified based on decoding an SSB from the NTN cell. The UE may identify the CORESET and the SS based on the pre-paging configuration and the resource via which the SSB was received. Thus a UE may receive a pre-paging message from an NTN based on receiving and decoding an SSB in low SINR scenarios.

Further, embodiments assign the faux utterances to chat group members based on a corresponding speaker index and utilize one or more corresponding avatars of the chat group members to present the faux utterances to the external user.

Abstract: A scheduling offset between an uplink and downlink radio frame timing structure of a user equipment (UE) may be updated to provide for more efficient utilization of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processes in a non-terrestrial network. For instance, different UEs may experience different round trip delays (RTDs) with a non-terrestrial cell. Different UEs may be configured with different scheduling offsets such that scheduling delays may be reduced and HARQ processes identifiers may be reused more rapidly. Additionally or alternatively, wireless communications systems may define one or more separation distances (or timing thresholds) for timing between communications and HARQ processes may be reused based on the separation distance threshold (e.g., such that a satellite may reuse a HARQ process ID for two scheduled communications that have not yet been performed by the UE).

Abstract: Aspects relate to supporting power control for physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmissions on an uplink secondary component carrier (SCC) of a wireless communication system. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) receives a power control configuration from a base station for use by the UE for a PUCCH transmission on a selected uplink SCC. The UE then transmits, based at least in part on the power control configuration, the PUCCH to the base station on the selected uplink SCC. Closed-loop and open-loop power control examples are provided. In some aspects, common or shared power control configurations are provided by the base station for use with each component carrier of a PUCCH group. In other aspects, carrier-specific power control configurations are provided by the base station.

Two pairs of video clips and associated text are obtained from a first dataset and a second dataset. The first dataset is used to train two video encoders by providing the video clips to the encoders as input and providing the outputs to a cosine similarity calculator. The second dataset is used to train a multi-mentor paradigm with two mentors. A first mentor and a second mentor are each provided the pair of textual data inputs. The first mentor provides a similarity value comparison, and the second mentor provides a word mover distance. Using the output from the multi-mentor paradigm and the encoders, a contrastive loss is calculated and used to provide contrastive learning of video features by differentiating similarity and dissimilarity of the video clips.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may map uplink control information (UCI) bits and uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) data bits to a first subset of resources associated with a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). The UE may copy symbols associated with the UCI bits and the UL-SCH data bits from the first subset of resources to one or more remaining subsets of resources. The UE may apply an orthogonal cover code (OCC) across a plurality of subsets of resources, including the first subset of resources and the one or more remaining subsets of resources, associated with the PUSCH. The UE may transmit, based at least in part on the OCC applied across the plurality of subsets of resources, multiplexed UCI bits and UL-SCH data bits. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A reference signal distribution scheme described herein may allow for the benefits of orthogonal cover codes, and improve mechanisms to identify and address resulting carrier frequency offset. Techniques are described for distributing reference signals (e.g., demodulation reference signals) over a set of resources. The reference signals may be arranged in equi-spaced clusters, where groups of the reference signals per cluster are spaced according to a first timing offset, and where each cluster may be spaced according to a second timing offset. The network may configure the reference signal distribution scheme at various user equipments, indicating values for the timing offset. The user equipments may transmit reference signals according to the indicated scheme.

In some examples, the UE may receive, based on the monitoring, the pre-paging signal from the first cell, and the UE may output an alert message associated with receiving the pre-paging signal, the alert message indicating for the UE to be relocated to improve coverage.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may determine that it is communicating with a particular type of cell (e.g., an air to ground (ATG) cell), and may utilize a timing advance (TA) report format corresponding to the determined cell type. The TA report for an ATG cell may use all 16 bits of a TA report to indicate a TA value according to a small time unit. The TA report for an ATG cell may utilize a subset of bits to indicate a symbol-level TA, and the remainder of bits in the TA report may be unused. The TA report for an ATG cell may be a single octet TA report, including reserved bits and a bit that indicates a format for the TA report, and the TA value. The TA report may include reserved bits and the TA value.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may account for the application of orthogonal cover coding (OCC) to an uplink transmission when determining the transport block size (TBS) for the uplink transmission. OCC may be used to multiplex transmissions from multiple UEs and may involve spreading information. Described techniques may involve accounting for the spreading of information bits when determining the TBS for the uplink transmission to which OCC is applied. Sub-physical resource block (sub-PRB) frequency allocations may be provided for uplink transmissions. The UE may account for the allocated quantity of sub-carriers when determining the quantity of information bits. To indicate a sub-PRB, the UE may be configured to reinterpret one or more fields of an existing downlink control information (DCI) format as indicating the allocated sub-carriers, or a new DCI format may be configured that includes fields for indicating a sub-PRB allocation.
