Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station and user equipment (UE) may utilize an enhanced physical downlink control channel (ePDCCH) within a common search space to establish a MulteFire connection. The common search space may include a common PDCCH (C-PDCCH) and a MulteFire system information block (SIB-MF1) grant. The base station may define one or more common search spaces for the SIB-MF1 grants and C-PDCCH and signal the resource allocation for the common search spaces to the UE within a master information block (MIB). Each common search space may include a fixed set of control elements that the UE monitors for decoding the SIB-MF1 grants and C-PDCCH. In some cases, the base station may hardcode resources for the SIB-MF1 grants and C-PDCCH. Alternatively, the base station may signal the resources for each of the SIB-MF1 grants and C-PDCCH via reserved bits in the MIB.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration message indicating a payload size configuration for machine type communication (MTC) physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) messages. The UE may generate an MTC PUCCH message based at least in part on the payload size configuration and a PUCCH format of MTC uplink control information for transmission by the UE. The UE may transmit the MTC PUCCH message over a plurality of RBs in a frequency domain.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A base station may identify a first synchronization sequence and generate a second synchronization sequence based at least in part on the first synchronization sequence. The base station may map the first synchronization sequence to a first resource block of a synchronization channel associated with a first frequency sub-band of a shared radio frequency spectrum band and the second synchronization sequence to a second resource block associated with a second frequency sub-band of the synchronization channel. The base station may then transmit the first synchronization sequence and the second synchronization sequence concurrently over the synchronization channel using the first resource block and the second resource block according to the mapping. In some cases, the second synchronization may be generated by applying a first phase shift to the first synchronization sequence.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A base station may transmit downlink control information to a user equipment (UE). The downlink control information may identify a grantless uplink group associated with one or more grantless uplink subframes for the UE. The UE may transmit uplink control information for the one or more grantless uplink subframes associated with the indicated uplink group of the UE. The UE may then transmit grantless uplink data during at least one of the one or more grantless uplink subframes based at least in part on the grantless uplink group associated for the UE and the uplink control information.

Abstract: This disclosure includes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication. A repetition of symbols may be used to increase a device's ability to synchronize and communicate using unlicensed spectrum. For example, a base station may schedule a frame that includes repetitions, in time or frequency, of a control or data signal. After performing a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure, the base station may broadcast or transmit the frame to one or more devices, such as a user equipment (UE). For instance, the frame may include repetitions of a discovery reference signal (DRS), and be broadcast by the base station to enable synchronization by the UE. In other examples, the signal may include repetitions of a cell-specific reference signal (CRS), and a UE may identify a start of a transmission opportunity using the CRSs. Other signals, such as downlink control and shared channels, may be repeated within a frame in a similar manner.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications by a transmitter user equipment (UE). The method may include transmitting, to a receiver UE, sidelink control information (SCI) to reserve a future sidelink resource for a sidelink transmission to the receiver UE, wherein the SCI indicates transmission of the sidelink transmission will begin with a cyclic prefix (CP) extension (CPE). The method may further include transmitting, to the receiver UE, the sidelink transmission with the CPE on the future sidelink resource in accordance with the SCI.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a receiver may receive, from two or more transmitters, two or more sidelink control informations (SCIs) that schedule channel occupancy time (COT) resources for the two or more transmitters. The receiver may transmit, to a transmitter of the two or more transmitters, an acknowledgement or negative acknowledgement (A/N) feedback via a mini-slot carrying a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) or sidelink feedback information (SLFI) with SCI. The A/N feedback may be transmitted before a listen-before-talk (LBT) and physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) transmission. The receiver may receive, from the transmitter using a COT resource, the PSSCH transmission based at least in part on the A/N feedback. The LBT and the PSSCH transmission may be adjustable at the transmitter based at least in part on the A/N feedback. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for sidelink channel access via a floating channel occupancy. In some aspects, a cellular device may operate within a proximity of one or more wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) devices and may conditionally support a search space associated with a floating sidelink synchronization signal block (SSB). For example, if the cellular device detects that the Wi-Fi devices are precluding the cellular device from acquiring channel access or otherwise making it relatively more difficult for the cellular device to acquire channel access, the cellular device may enable or active a use of the search space associated with the floating sidelink SSB. If enabled or activated, the cellular device may transmit a floating sidelink SSB within the search space independent of slot boundaries upon a successful listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support relaxed sensing for new radio (NR) sidelink over millimeter wave (mmW) operating frequencies. In a first aspect, a method by a user equipment (UE) of wireless communication includes identifying a resource selection trigger that indicates selection of one or more sidelink slots from a resource selection window. The UE may obtain long-term interference sensing statistics observed by the UE prior to the resource selection trigger. The UE can reduce a default sensing window length in accordance with the long-term interference sensing statistics and transmit a sidelink transmission in the selected sidelink slots. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

Abstract: A method performed by a first sidelink (SL) user equipment (UE) includes receiving a downlink control information (DCI) from a number of coupled DCIs. The DCI grants reception of a number of scheduled physical SL shared channels (PSSCHs) over an unlicensed SL carrier, and requests a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) response for the scheduled PSSCHs. The method also includes receiving at least one of the PSSCHs from a second SL UE. The method further includes transmitting the HARQ response based on the at least one received PSSCH.
