    Abstract: A method of wireless communication, by a user equipment (UE) supporting a four transmitter/six receiver (4T6R) antenna configuration, reports a sounding reference signal (SRS) switching capability. The method receives an SRS antenna switching configuration, and performs SRS antenna switching while transmitting multiple SRSs via SRS resources with multiple transmitters for different antenna ports, in accordance with the SRS antenna switching configuration. At least one of the different antenna ports may use at least two of the SRS resources. A quantity of the different antenna ports assigned to each SRS resource may be different for the SRS antenna switching. The UE may sound the different antenna ports an equal number of times, and at least one of the different antenna ports may use at least two of the SRS resources for the SRS antenna switching.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may receive a capability message from a user equipment (UE) based on a number of receive antennas exceeding a number of transmit antennas at the UE. The base station may configure the UE with a mapping between sounding reference signal (SRS) resources and bit sequences, or SRS resource indices (SRIs), based on the capability message. The base station may transmit a control message including one or more SRIs indicating respective SRS resources. The UE may use the one or more SRIs included in a control message from the base station to select respective SRS resources from a resource set. Once the UE selects one or more SRS resources, the UE may transmit one or more SRSs in the SRS resources.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive. from a base station, signaling that indicates an indirect assignment of a slot for transmitting sounding reference signals (SRSs) in multiple SRS resource sets. The UE may determine whether the slot is available for the indirect assignment based on a first set of characteristics associated with the multiple SRS resource sets and a second set of characteristics associated with the slot. If the UE determines that the slot is available for the indirect assignment, the UE may transmit SRSs in the multiple SRS resource sets during the slot. If the UE determines that the slot is unavailable for the indirect assignment. the UE may refrain from transmitting SRSs in one or more of the multiple SRS resource sets during the slot.
