    Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating a programmable smart repeater with in-band control are disclosed herein. An example method for wireless communication at a repeater includes establishing a control link with a control node and receiving, via the control link, a configuration for the repeating unit component of the repeater to forward communication between a first wireless device and a second wireless device on an access link. The example method also includes transitioning an MT component of the repeater to an RRC inactive mode or an RRC idle mode for at least a period of time after receiving the configuration and forwarding the communication between the first wireless device and the second wireless device on the access link based on the configuration while the MT component of the repeater is in the RRC inactive mode or the RRC idle mode.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a central network entity may configure, for a network node, a first configuration indicating one or more transmission windows for inter-network node cross-link interference (CLI) measurement reference signaling. The central network entity may configure, for the network node, a second configuration indicating a plurality of reception windows for inter-network node CLI measurement reference signaling, wherein the one or more transmission windows are configured to be non-overlapped with each reception window of the plurality of reception windows. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: An assisting network device receives an incoming signal from a transmitting device. The assisting network device forwards the incoming signal to a receiving device in a beam direction based on a frequency of the incoming signal. A method of wireless communication by a first wireless device includes determining an indication of a frequency domain beam sweeping configuration of an assisting network device. The method communicates a signal with a second wireless device via the assisting network device in a beam direction based on a frequency of the signal. A method of wireless communication by a controlling entity determines a frequency domain beam sweeping configuration of an assisting network device. The method indicates the frequency domain beam sweeping configuration to a first wireless device, via the assisting network device, for communication with a second wireless device in a beam direction based on a frequency of an incoming signal.

    Abstract: A first network node may transmit, to one or more second network nodes, one or more first reference signals. The first network node may receive, from one or more third network nodes, one or more second reference signals. The first network node may measure a CLI level associated with at least one third network node in the one or more third network nodes based on the one or more second reference signals. In one or more configurations, the first network node may receive, from a network entity different from the first network node, a configuration associated with the transmission of the one or more first reference signals or the reception of the one or more second reference signals. In one or more configurations, the one or more second network nodes and the one or more third network nodes may or may not include at least one same network node.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for beam management in a wireless communication system are provided. In a network with a full duplex network entity communicating with two UEs, the network entity may configure cross-link interference (CLI) resources such that the interference between the devices may be characterized. One UE may transmit a reference signal which is read by the other device. Based on the measurement, a report may be sent to the network entity. The network entity may use the information in the report to then base scheduling decisions, and/or indicate to the UEs which beams are restricted from use in order to avoid excessive interference.

    Abstract: An apparatus, e.g., a UE, for resolution of conflicts between HD and FD configurations is disclosed. The UE receives a configuration indicating that a first set of symbols is configured for HD communication with at least one of D symbols, U symbols, or F symbols in which the F symbols are configured as D or U. The UE receives DCI scheduling FD communication including an FD transmission and an FD reception on a second set of symbols. The second set of symbols have a third set of symbols in common with the first set of symbols. The third set of symbols have conflicting HD and FD configurations. The UE cancels, based on the conflicting HD and FD configurations of the third set of symbols, at least one of the FD transmission or the FD reception in the third set of symbols.

    Abstract: A first wireless device transmits one or more transmissions for a second wireless device to a repeater for repetition to the second wireless device; adjusts a repeater operation based on a phase noise in transmission between the first wireless device and the repeater; and communicates with at least one of the repeater or the second wireless device based on the adjusted repeater operation. A repeater receives from a first wireless device, a request for the repeater to report a phase noise in transmissions between the first wireless device and the repeater for repetition with a second wireless device; and transmits a report of the phase noise to the first wireless device based on the request. A repeater receives, from a first wireless device, a transmission for repetition with a second wireless device; and transmits the repetition of the transmission to the second wireless device with a phase noise compensation.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first integrated access and backhaul (IAB) donor central unit (CU) may receive, from a first IAB node, an indication of a first distributed unit (DU) cell resource configuration for communications corresponding to a first cell that is associated with a second IAB donor CU. The IAB donor CU may transmit, to a second IAB node, an indication of a second DU cell resource configuration for communications corresponding to a second cell, wherein the second DU cell resource configuration is based at least in part on the first DU cell resource configuration and a multiplexing constraint associated with communications corresponding to the first cell and communications corresponding to the second cell. Numerous other aspects are described.
