Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) messages to a set of user equipments (UEs) using respective resources corresponding to each UE. The base station may receive, from each of a subset of UEs from the set of UEs, a negative acknowledgement (NACK) message associated with the SPS messages. The base station may transmit a group downlink control message including information associated with a downlink resource configuration for retransmission of the respective SPS messages to the subset of UEs. The base station may retransmit SPS messages to each of the subset of UEs using the downlink resource configuration.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In an FDD system, a UE may identify an indicator associated with ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC) while communicating in a sidelink channel. The UE may also identify dedicated uplink resources in the sidelink channel, and reserve the dedicated uplink resources. The dedicated uplink resources may be reserved for an acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) feedback or for a scheduling request (SR). URLLC data may be communicated, and the reserved uplink resources may be utilized to transmit an ACK/NACK feedback or a SR. In a TDD system, a base station may transmit information identifying dedicated resources for URLLC data. In some cases, a base station may transmit an indicator channel, which a sidelink UE may monitor to determine the presence of URLLC data, and respond accordingly.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described that support overlapping code block groups (CBGs) for multiple codewords. A receiving device may receive multiple codewords from a transmitting device over a set of spatial layers. The receiving device may determine an association between a set of feedback bits and code blocks (CBs) of the multiple codewords. The association may be based on a CBG configuration, which may bundle one or more sets of CBs of the one or more codewords using time boundaries (e.g., symbols) or based on a uniform or proportional CB distribution. Based on whether decoding of the codewords is successful, the receiving device may transmit the set of feedback bits. The number of feedback bits may be the same regardless of whether one or two codewords are received.

Abstract: IoE devices signal association requests to relay devices during association slots. An IoE device receives a discovery broadcast from a relay device, listing available tones for association. The IoE device sends a first association request to the relay device using a tone selected from the list. The relay device returns a first response. The IoE device randomly selects a tone from a channel and sends a second request to the relay device with it. A second response is sent to the IoE device after contention. The IoE device creates a list of available tones and sends it to the relay device. An overlapping tone is selected. The relay device sends the selected tone to the IoE device for subsequent data communication. If there is no overlap, the relay device may suggest available tones for use in a subsequent association request. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a sidelink signaling mechanism that provides for a combination of single-tone and multiple-tone signaling to reduce overhead, while ensuring reliable signaling. In some examples, a sidelink request signal, such as a source transmit signal (STS), may be a single-tone signal, and a sidelink confirmation signal, such as a destination receive signal (DRS), may be a multiple-tone signal. In other examples, the request signal may be a multiple-tone signal, and the confirmation signal may be a single-tone signal.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to distributed joint access of an unlicensed sidelink channel Each sidelink device may perform independent and asynchronous listen before talk (LBT) of the unlicensed sidelink channel with a respective back-off timer value. The first sidelink device to complete back-off may transmit a joint access synchronization (JAS) signal indicating a duration of time that the unlicensed sidelink channel may be accessed by sidelink devices. Synchronized access sharing of the unlicensed sidelink channel across different active sidelinks may then be achieved through distributed handshake signaling.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatuses that can provide sidelink grant information to out-of-coverage (OoC) sidelink devices. When one or more sidelink devices are out of a coverage area of a base station, an in-coverage device receiving sidelink grant information from the base station can retransmit, relay, or rebroadcast sidelink grant information to the OoC sidelink devices to enable sidelink communication with the OoC device or facilitate sidelink communication between OoC devices.

Abstract: Device detection in networks with mixed mobility devices is discussed. Devices in the network first determine a discovery mode from a plurality of discovery modes, wherein the determining is based on a mobility state of the wireless device. The device identifies a set of resources associated with the determined discovery mode, wherein each of the plurality of discovery modes is provisioned with separate resources. A discovery signal is transmitted using the identified set of resources according to the discovery mode. Thus, devices with higher mobility will generally send discovery signals more often than devices that are static or semi-static.

Abstract: An apparatus may receive, from a scheduling entity, sidelink grant information in a downlink control channel. After receiving the grant information in the downlink control channel, the apparatus may transmit a request-to-send (RTS) signal comprising an indication of a requested duration of time to reserve a sidelink channel for sidelink data. If the sidelink channel is available for the requested duration of time, the apparatus may receive a clear-to-send (CTS) signal configured to indicate an availability of the sidelink channel for the requested duration of time. Subsequently, the apparatus may communicate, with another apparatus different from the scheduling entity, the sidelink data using the sidelink channel during the requested duration of time. Afterwards, the apparatus may communicate acknowledgment information corresponding to the communication of the sidelink signal with the other apparatus. Various additional and alternative aspects are described herein.
