Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to wireless communication systems configured to provide techniques for strategically placing a sounding reference signal (SRS) within a slot to improve the decoding timeline. Aspects of the disclosure further relate to wireless communication systems configured to optimize the physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) search space within a slot to improve the decoding timeline. Features may also include placing the SRS near the end of the slot, such as after the uplink user data traffic and the corresponding uplink demodulation reference signal (DMRS). In addition, features may also include identifying the PDCCH search space within the slot based on at least a slot index of the slot. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A transmitting device may identify multiple demodulation reference signal (DMRS) symbols corresponding to multiple DMRS ports of a multiple input multiple output configuration. The transmitting device may generate multiple phase-rotated and precoded DMRS symbols by applying an orthogonal cover code, a phase rotation scheme, and a precoding matrix to the identified DMRS symbols. The transmitting device may map the phase-rotated and precoded DMRS symbols to time-frequency resources corresponding to multiple antenna ports, and transmit a DMRS based on the mapped phase-rotated and precoded DMRS symbols. The transmitting device may transmit the DMRS using multiple antennas that correspond to the antenna ports.

Abstract: A configurable new radio (NR) uplink (UL) transmission may use transmit diversity. A user equipment (UE) may identify an uplink transmission of at least one stream as using one of cyclic prefix orthogonal frequency division multiplexing or discrete Fourier transform spread orthogonal frequency division multiplexing. The UE may apply a precoding matrix to the at least one identified stream. The precoding matrix changes over time. The precoding matrix may change based on closed loop feedback, a precoding cycling pattern, and/or a code division multiplexing group. The UE may transmit the at least one identified stream from multiple antennas according to the applied precoding matrix.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that support frequency and time domain multiplexing for low peak-to-average waveforms with multiple streams. A user equipment (UE) may identify sets of symbols associated with different streams (e.g., multiple single-carrier discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-spread waveforms), where each stream may be associated with a low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). In some cases, different waveforms may be mapped to subsets of frequency resources through frequency division multiplexing (FDM). The UE may further reduce the PAPR of the multiplexed waveforms by performing time division multiplexing (TDM) across the single-carrier streams, and sets of symbols that are not used by one waveform may be used by another waveform. Frequency domain phase ramps may be applied to align the multiplexed waveforms. Signals included in an uplink transmission according to these techniques may maintain properties similar to single-carrier waveforms, including a low PAPR.

Abstract: Transmissions or channels may collide with one another. In the event of a collision, a first channel may be prioritized over a second channel and the second channel may be dropped. The described techniques and methods relate to prioritizing transmissions, based in part on service types, to mitigate increased latency and poor reliability. Accordingly, the described techniques may provide methods for prioritizing transmissions in the event of overlapping transmissions to decrease latency and improve reliability of transmissions for different service types.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration message configuring the UE to communicate coordinated transmissions with multiple transmission reception points (TRPs) using a first coordinated transmission mode of a set of different coordinated transmission modes. The UE may receive, based on the configuration message, downlink control information including at least one indicator and receive a first coordinated transmission communicated in accordance with the first coordinated transmission mode. The UE may transmit, in accordance with a feedback configuration corresponding to the at least one indicator and the first coordinated transmission mode, a feedback message for the first coordinated transmission to at least one of the multiple TRPs.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured with a transmission stream processor used to maintain a lower peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) for uplink transmissions. In some cases, a UE may map modulated symbols of different signals (or waveforms) to interleaved subsets of frequency resources, and this form of frequency division multiplexing (FDM) may increase the PAPR of an uplink transmission. To reduce the PAPR of uplink transmissions, a transmission stream processor at the UE may support techniques for phase ramping modulated symbols in the time domain prior to mapping the symbols to the frequency resources. These techniques may help to ensure that the signals to be included in an uplink transmission are aligned in such a way that the PAPR of the uplink transmission is reduced.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described that support a low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) precoded reference signal design for multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) transmissions. A user equipment (UE) may identify multiple sets of symbols associated with different reference signal waveforms, where each reference signal waveform may be associated with a low PAPR. In some cases, different single-carrier reference signal waveforms may be mapped to subsets of frequency resources through frequency division multiplexing (FDM) for a transmission on a single antenna. However, the addition of single-carrier waveforms through FDM for a transmission via an antenna may result in an uplink transmission having a high PAPR (e.g., as compared to single-carrier waveforms). The UE may reduce the PAPR of the uplink transmission by multiplexing the reference signal waveforms in the time domain (e.g., using time division multiplexing (TDM)).

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may determine one or more power parameters that contribute to a transmit power level for a sounding reference signal (SRS), wherein the one or more power parameters are configured differently for different types of SRS transmissions; determine the transmit power level for the SRS based at least in part on the one or more power parameters; and transmit the SRS using the transmit power level. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for a transmission of uplink control information (UCI) from a user equipment (UE) to a base station using uplink shared channel resources in the absence of other uplink shared channel data. Based in the UCI and uplink control parameters, the UE may determine an uplink power for transmission of the UCI based at least in part on a spectrum efficiency or a number of bits per resource element (BPRE) for the UCI.
