    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a base station, a report indicating that a cooperative reception group including the UE and one or more other UEs connected to the UE over an out-of-band link supports one or more downlink transmit beamforming techniques. The UE may determine, based at least in part on the one or more downlink transmit beamforming techniques supported by the cooperative reception group, a downlink transmit precoder associated with relaxed beamforming nulling. The UE may decode a downlink transmission received from the base station based at least in part on the downlink transmit precoder and one or more decoded bits received from the one or more other UEs in the cooperative reception group. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: A data structure for managing user equipment communications in a wireless communication system is presented. In some examples, the data structure may include one or more resource element blocks into which a frequency bandwidth of a downlink channel is divided within a symbol that defines a transmission time interval in a downlink subframe. Furthermore, the data structure may include a control region and a data region within at least one resource element block of the one or more resource element blocks. Additionally, the data structure may include a downlink resource grant, located within the control region, for a user equipment served by the downlink channel. In an additional aspect, a network entity and method for generating the example data structure are provided.

    Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to providing frequency diversity for communications in an unlicensed spectrum are provided. A first wireless communication device communicates, with a second wireless communication device, an opportunistic frequency-switching configuration for a first frequency band and a second frequency band. The first frequency band and the second frequency band are shared by a first network operating entity and a second network operating entity. The first wireless communication device communicates, with the second wireless communication device, a first communication signal in a first frequency band based on the opportunistic frequency-switching configuration. The first wireless communication device switches from the first frequency band to a second frequency band based on the opportunistic frequency-switching configuration. The first wireless communication device communicates, with the second wireless communication device after the switching, a second communication signal in the second frequency band based on the opportunistic frequency-switching configuration.

    Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to autonomous sidelink communication in a shared radio frequency band (e.g., in a shared spectrum or an unlicensed spectrum) are provided. A first user equipment (UE) performs a listen-before-talk (LBT) in a shared radio frequency band during at least a portion of a first sidelink frame. The first UE determines a channel occupancy time (COT) in the shared radio frequency band based on the LBT. A beginning of the COT is within the first sidelink frame and offset from a boundary of the first sidelink frame. The COT includes one or more sidelink frames subsequent to the first sidelink frame. The first UE transmits, in the shared radio frequency band, a COT indication signal at the beginning of the COT within the first sidelink frame. The COT indication signal includes COT sharing information for UEs to share the one or more sidelink frames.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment may monitor for a transmission over a set of periodically scheduled resources (e.g., semi-persistently scheduled resources)) of a downlink shared channel in an unlicensed spectrum. The user equipment may receive the transmission, where the transmission indicates a channel access configuration (e.g., a listen-before-talk configuration) for accessing the unlicensed spectrum. In some cases, the transmission may include a medium access control (MAC) control element (MAC-CE) that indicates the channel access configuration. The transmission may additionally indicate at least one uplink channel over which the user equipment may transmit a message and/or a channel occupancy time associated with a successful acquisition of the unlicensed spectrum by the base station. The user equipment may transmit a message (e.g., an acknowledgement) based on the channel access configuration.
