    Abstract: Spatial listen before talk (LBT) with broadcasting or multicasting reception is disclosed. Aspects of the disclosure provide for managing spatial LBT transmissions between broadcast communication nodes and neighboring cells. In one aspect, the broadcast transmitter transmits a preamble that identifies the broadcast transmission durations and the non-broadcast durations in the upcoming transmit opportunity. The potential interferer would read the preamble and yield any transmissions during the broadcast durations. Additional aspects provide for a periodic broadcast clear-to-send (CTS) signal transmitted by the broadcast receivers. The interferer may use the broadcast CTS to perform spatial LBT during the broadcast durations. Further aspects allow the broadcast receivers to determine when potential interferers would cause interference above a threshold. In such circumstances, the broadcast receivers would send the CTS to allow the interferer to perform spatial LBT during the broadcast durations.

    Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to improving detectability of interference management signals are provided. A first wireless communication device communicates, with a second wireless communication device, a first reservation signal indicating a reservation for a first transmission slot in a spectrum accessed by a plurality of network operating entities. The first wireless communication device and the second wireless communication device are associated with a first network operating entity of a plurality of network operating entities. The first reservation signal includes a duration based on a power class associated with the first network operating entity. The first wireless communication device communicates, with the second wireless communication device, a first communication signal in the first transmission slot.

    Abstract: A method of determining a location of a user equipment includes: obtaining, at the user equipment, a position-determination model associated with a coarse location of the user equipment; determining one or more first positioning measurements at the user equipment; and determining, at the user equipment, the location of the user equipment based on the one or more first positioning measurements and the position-determination model.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of one or more encoding operations to use for encoding a compressed dataset, the one or more encoding operations including a differential encoding operation, or an entropy encoding operation, or both. In some examples, using a neural network, the UE may first encode a dataset based on an additional encoding operation to generate a compressed dataset and then quantize the compressed dataset encoded based on the additional encoding operation. Subsequently, after the dataset has been initially encoded and then quantized, the UE may use the indication of the one or more encoding operations to further encode and compress the dataset. The UE may then transmit the dataset to a second device based on the one or more encoding operations.

    Abstract: To improve overall throughput and reliability of communications for a user equipment (UE) on a shared radio spectrum, the UE may share an acquired transmission opportunity (TxOP) with multiple transmission receive points (TRPs) or peer UEs. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus is configured to trigger at least one TRP or at least one peer UE to share an acquired TxOP, and receive downlink/uplink transmissions from the at least one TRP or peer UE during the TxOP based in part on a listen before talk (LBT) indication and a TxOP sharing mode. The apparatus is also configured to obtain the TxOP via an LBT procedure and to adjust a contention window (CW) of the LBT procedure based on a success-failure ratio the downlink/uplink transmissions from the at least one TRP or peer UE.
