    Abstract: Aspects provide for selecting a precoder mode for a transmission, changing a cyclic prefix (CP) length based on the selected precoder mode, and transmitting a signal that includes the changed CP length. Changing the CP length may involve using the selected precoder mode to lookup a value by which to change a nominal CP length. After changing the CP length, information indicating the changed CP length may be transmitted to a receiver of the signal. Precoder mode selection may be based on feedback information that indicates whether a receiver requests a change to the CP length. Precoder mode selection may be based on a received reference signal that indicates a condition of a communication channel. The reference signal may be used to select the precoder mode that results in the smallest relative delay spread, the largest relative delay spread compression, the largest relative beamforming gain, and/or the largest relative throughout.

    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure describe a guard band signal for communication on a guard band between a first frequency band utilized by a first radio access technology having a first sub-carrier spacing and a second frequency band utilized by a second radio access technology having a second sub-carrier spacing that is a multiple of the first sub-carrier spacing. The guard band signal includes a symbol that is repeated a number of times equal to the multiple. The guard band signal may be generated and transmitted by a transmitting device. The guard band signal may be received and decoded by a receiving device. The guard band signal is interpretable according to a first numerology of the first radio access technology and according to a second numerology of the second radio access technology.

    Abstract: User equipment (UE)-specific information may be transmitted within a control resource set configured to carry resources common to UEs within a system. The UE-specific information may be associated with a search space having an aggregation level different from aggregation levels used with the common control resources and may occupy different modulation symbols within the common control resource set (e.g., to support flexible scheduling for multiple UEs). A base station and UE may operate in a system using one or more control resource sets within a system bandwidth. The UE may detect common control resources by monitoring decoding candidates in the control resource set according to a first set of aggregation levels. The UE may detect UE-specific control resources by monitoring decoding candidates in the control resource set according to other aggregation levels. The UE and base station may communicate based on control information obtained from the monitoring.

    Abstract: A method at a scheduling entity might include determining that interference is present from a neighboring scheduling entity, which implements a second subcarrier spacing that is different from a first subcarrier spacing of the scheduling entity. The scheduling entity might request the neighboring scheduling entity to negotiate a bandwidth group (BWG), where the BWG is a bandwidth occupied by downlink subcarriers within which a transmission parameter is maintained. The method might include negotiating a bandwidth of the bandwidth group and transmitting, if negotiating is successful, downlink data to a scheduled entity served by the scheduling entity according to the negotiated bandwidth. The transmission parameter might be a precoder, rank, modulation order, power inside each BWG, or numerology. The numerology might be scalable and might be a combination of subcarrier spacing and cyclic prefix (CP) overhead, The subcarrier spacing might be scaled while keeping constant the CP overhead as a percentage of a symbol duration.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for establishing a wireless communications link at an aircraft terminal (AT). An AT may determine a timing offset based on the propagation delay between the AT and a ground station, which in some cases may be more than 100 kilometers away. The AT may then transmit an initial access message to the ground station based on the determined timing offset. In some embodiments, the AT may receive an access response message from the ground station that includes a timing alignment value and adjust the timing offset based on this value. The AT may transmit a connection message to the ground station that includes AT location information. This information may be used by the ground station to facilitate beamforming.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for transmitting across a broad azimuth using an antenna array. In one example, a method is described that includes forming two subarrays from an antenna array. Beamforming weights are selected for each subarray to cause the radiation patterns to be complementary over a range of the azimuth of a cell. The beamforming weights may be selected according to a recursive relation based on the number of antenna elements in each subarray. Information may be encoded, scrambled, and mapped to modulation symbols. A Space Frequency Block Code (SFBC) such as an Alamouti Code may then be used to form two signals to be transmitted over the two subarrays.
