  • Patent number: 11881920
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may monitor for a first transmission of a first service type (e.g., enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB)) and a second transmission of a second service type (e.g., ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC)). The UE may identify a feedback codebook size for the first service type. The UE may multiplex a first feedback codebook having the identified feedback codebook size and generated for the first transmission with a second feedback codebook generated for the second transmission. Multiplexing the first and second feedback codebooks may produce a multiplexed feedback codebook. In some cases, the UE may perform the multiplexing based on a feedback multiplexing condition being satisfied. The UE may transmit the multiplexed feedback codebook in a control channel (e.g., a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH)) or a shared data channel (e.g., a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH)).

  • Publication number: 20240023064
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may operate in an idle mode in which the UE does not actively monitor for incoming transmissions. In some cases, the network may probe the idle UE by sending a paging early indication (PEI), which may trigger the UE to monitor paging occasions for incoming data. If the UE does not receive the PEI on the first PEI occasion, the UE may continue to monitor subsequent PEI occasions. However, the UE may stop monitoring subsequent PEI occasions once the data has been received. Accordingly, the network may indicate a stop trigger implicitly or explicitly to the UE. In some cases, the stop trigger may be an indication in a short message or downlink control information (DCI). Additionally, or alternatively, the UE may stop monitoring after receiving any downlink transmission.
