    Abstract: The present disclosure provide techniques for communicating energy request reports and energy reports. A method includes sending an energy request indication in an energy request occasion, the energy request indication indicating a request for a user equipment (UE) to send an energy request report to the network node. The method further includes sending the energy request report, the energy request report indicating a request for a network node to transmit power to the UE or a request for time for the UE to harvest energy. The method further includes sending an energy report indication in an energy report occasion, the energy report indication indicating a request for the UE to send an energy report to the network node. The method further includes sending the energy report, the energy report indicating to the network node at least one communication capability of the UE based on an energy level of the UE.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a network node (e.g., a user equipment (UE)) may operate according to an operational state during which the network node is unavailable for communicating information. The network node may modify timing to account for the operational state. For example, a first network node (e.g., a UE) may receive, from a second network node (e.g., a network entity or base station), timing information corresponding to a timer. If a duration of the timer at least partially overlaps in time with a duration of the operational state for the first network node, the first network node may modify at least one of the timing information or the duration of the operational state. The first network node may communicate with the second network node in accordance with the modified timing information or the modified duration of the operational state.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for paging occasion (PO) and paging early indication (PEI) configurations. In particular, the present disclosure provides techniques for configuring various paging parameters on different types of user equipments (UEs), including, such as, reduced capability (RedCap) UEs. For example, a network entity transmits signaling jointly configuring at least first and second types of UEs having different capabilities with a first set of paging parameters. The network entity transmits signaling that separately configures at least the first and second types of UEs with a second set of paging parameters. The network entity communicates with the first and the second types of UEs in accordance with the first and second set of paging parameters.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques to achieve inter-base station beam management to avoid interference during full-duplex (FD) operations, half-duplex (HD) operations, flexible time-domain duplexing (TDD), or a combination thereof, by performing interference management specific to beam configurations. For example, a first base station (e.g., an aggressor base station operating in FD) may perform one or more actions to proactively determine if inter-base station interference may occur. In some cases, the aggressor base station may request measurements from one or more victim base stations. In other examples, the victim base station may request measurements from the aggressor base station. Additionally or alternatively, the victim base station may provide reactive feedback to the aggressor base station upon detecting interference.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may request to change its radio resource control (RRC) parameters by transmitting a UE assistance information message to a base station. However, the existing RRC parameters that a UE may request to change via a UE assistance information message may not be inadequate for some UEs and may cause a high signaling overhead. The aspects described herein include an apparatus that obtains configuration information for a UE assistance information message, the configuration information indicating a set of parameters the apparatus is allowed to indicate in the UE assistance information message, the set of parameters including at least one of an operation complexity control parameter, a network coverage control parameter, or a channel monitoring control parameter. The apparatus transmits the UE assistance information message, wherein the UE assistance information message is based on at least a portion of the set of parameters.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Techniques described herein relate to a user equipment (UE) that may include a wakeup radio in addition to a main radio to monitor for wakeup signals while the UE is in a sleep mode. The wakeup radio receiver may use less power than the main radio. In some examples, a first UE may indicate to a wireless node (e.g., a controlling sidelink UE or a network entity) that the UE is capable of sending wakeup signals to a second UE. In such examples, the wireless node may transmit a wakeup signal intended for the second UE to the first UE based on the capability report. The first UE may relay the wakeup signal to the second UE. Responsive to receiving the wakeup signal, the second UE may wake up the main radio of the second UE for communications.
