    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The method includes transmitting, to a base station based on a parameter of a configuration of the UE, a first HARQ feedback configuration or a request to modify the configuration of the UE, or both, the configuration of the UE including a carrier aggregation configuration and receiving, from the base station based on transmitting the first HARQ feedback configuration or request to modify the configuration of the UE, or both, a second HARQ feedback configuration or reconfiguration.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for efficiently facilitating acknowledgment (ACK) or negative acknowledgment (NACK) feedback from a user equipment (UE) for a set of transport blocks in one or more multicast transmissions from a base station. The UE may determine control channel resources for transmitting the ACK/NACK feedback, and each respective control channel resource may correspond to a distinct subset of the set of transport blocks. Once the UE determines a subset of transport blocks that the UE failed to decode (such as at least one transport block), the UE may determine a respective control channel resource that corresponds to the at least one transport block that the UE failed to decode. The UE may transmit ACK/NACK feedback on the respective control channel resource, which, in some examples, may indicate that the UE failed to decode the subset of transport blocks.

    Abstract: Techniques for alternative semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) parameter implementation in association with preemption of use of resources corresponding to other SPS parameters are described. Wireless devices may be implicitly informed with respect to implementing alternative resources corresponding to one or more alternative SPS parameters when use of resources corresponding to first SPS parameters is preempted. A disruption indication (DI), such as used to indicate preemption of downlink transmission on downlink SPS allocated resources and/or a cancellation indication of uplink transmission on uplink SPS allocated resources, may be used to inform (e.g., implicitly) one or more wireless devices to employ alternative resources corresponding to alternative SPS parameters available to the wireless devices. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. For example, a method for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), may include receiving a configuration for reporting feedback associated with beam blocking. The UE may perform a decoding process on one or more downlink transmissions via a set of multiple beams. The UE may determine whether a failure of the decoding process is a result of one or more of the plurality of beams being at least partially blocked during the one or more downlink transmissions according to the configuration. The UE may also transmit a negative acknowledgement (NACK) and link adaptation information, where the NACK acknowledgement is based on the failure of the decoding process and the link adaptation information is based on determining whether the one or more of the set of multiple beams are at least partially blocked.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) and a base station may communicate in a wireless communications system. The UE may receive first control signaling indicating a first radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) and a first feedback process identifier, where the first RNTI indicates scheduling of a unicast downlink transmission. The UE may also receive second control signaling indicating a second RNTI and a second feedback process identifier, where the second RNTI indicates scheduling of a multicast downlink transmission. The UE may manage a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARM) process at the UE associated with the unicast downlink transmission and the multicast downlink transmission based on the first RNTI, the first feedback process identifier, the second RNTI, and the second feedback process identifier. The UE may also simultaneously process multicast downlink transmission and broadcast signaling.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A device such as a user equipment (UE) or a base station may identify a beam switching capability of the UE, the beam switching capability indicating a threshold quantity of beam switches during a transmission time interval, a threshold quantity of symbol periods between beam switching operations, or a combination thereof. The device may determine that the beam switching capability of the UE is satisfied based at least in part on one or more parameters (e.g., one or more symbol period durations, one or more quantities of beam switches during a transmission time interval, one or more adjustment parameters, one or more threshold values associated with the capability of the UE, etc.). The device may perform one or more beam switching operations based on determining that the beam switching capability is satisfied.
