Abstract:
Various aspects of the disclosure relate to communicating control information for independent links. For example, control information for one link may be sent via at least one other link. In some aspects, the independent links may involve a first device (e.g., a user equipment) communicating via different independent links with different devices (e.g., transmit receive points (TRPs) or sets of TRPs). In some scenarios, one link may carry control information for multiple links. For example, one link may indicate the existence of or traffic on at least one other link. As another example, one link may transmit feedback for multiple links. In some scenarios, each link may be provisioned (e.g., as a primary link or a secondary link) to carry specific types of control information for one or more links.
