Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication at a UE. A user equipment (UE) may receive a control signal from a base station on resources of a first narrowband region. The UE may then identify a second narrowband region based on the control signal. In some cases a broadband carrier may be divided into an indexed set of narrowband regions, and the UE may identify an index using information contained in (implicitly or explicitly) in the control signal. The UE may communicate with the base station on resources of the second narrowband region. For example, a UE may receive a system information block (SIB) or a paging message, and perform a random access procedure using narrowband resources selected based on the SIB or paging message.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to allocating transmission power in multiple connectivity wireless networks. A device can establish a first connection with a first primary cell in a first cell group as well as a second connection with a second primary cell in a second cell group. The device can determine whether to prioritize a first communication over the first connection or a second communication over the second connection, wherein the first communication and the second communication are scheduled for concurrent transmission. In addition, the device can transmit at least one of the first communication over the first connection or the second communication over the second connection in a transmission time interval based at least in part on determining whether to prioritize the first communication or the second communication.

Abstract: Power headroom management in uplink carrier aggregation for connectivity with logically separate cells of a wireless communications system is performed by a network entity, alone or in combination with another network entity, one or more mobile entities, or both. This may include determining an uplink power allocation across at least two independently controlled cells of a wireless communication network for a mobile entity served by at least two independently controlled cells of a wireless communication network, subject to a total PH constraint for uplink transmissions by the mobile entity. A network entity may then manage PH reporting for determining the uplink power allocation by the uplink serving cells, based on the determined uplink power allocation. Managing the PH reporting may be performed by at least one of: explicit coordination between the at least two independently controlled cells, implicit coordination between the at least two independently controlled cells, or configuring PH reporting from the mobile entity by at least one of the at least two independently controlled cells.

Abstract: Various techniques for narrowband communications in a wireless communications network are provided. Narrowband communications may be transmitted using a single resource block (RB) of a number of RBs used for wideband communications. In order to provide for efficient device discovery and synchronization using narrowband communications, a synchronization signal, such as a primary synchronization signal (PSS) or secondary synchronization signal (SSS), may be transmitted within the single resource block. The synchronization signal may be transmitted, for example, using multiple orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols within the single RB. A common reference signal (CRS) may also be present in the single resource block, which may puncture the synchronization signal, in some examples. In other examples, the synchronization signal may be mapped to non-CRS symbols of the single resource block.

Abstract: A device may support communication without a radio link control (RLC) layer, which may include receiving a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) service data units (SDUs) for multiple radio bearers at a PDCP layer. The multiple radio bearers may have different reliability or delay targets, and a reordering procedure at the PDCP layer may be conducted on the different radio bearers. The reordering procedure may be a same reordering procedure for each of the radio bearers, with one or more parameters that may be adjusted based on one or both of the reliability target or delay target of the radio bearer.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for transmission of small data packets through a paging procedure in a MTC or cellular internet of things system (CIoT). A core network may receive data to be transmitted to a user equipment (UE) and may determine that a small data packet transmission may be initiated for the data. The core network may format the small data packet into a paging request that includes the data and a UE identification, and transmit the paging request to a base station. The base station may receive the paging request, and initiate a page process with the UE. The UE may receive a page message, and initiate an access procedure that may be used for transmission of the small data. The UE may be in idle mode prior to the small data transmission, and in some examples may return to idle mode following the transmission of the small data.

Abstract: Methods for managing hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback are disclosed, where HARQ feedback operations by a receiving device may be modified. A receiving device may receive a data transmission. The receiving device may evaluate a condition for determining how to provide HARQ feedback in response to the data transmission.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Discontinuous reception (DRX) operation may be configured differently on enhanced component carriers (eCCs) than on other component carriers, including a primary cell (PCell). In some cases, a user equipment (UE) may be configured with several different eCC DRX modes. An eCC DRX configuration may, for example, be coordinated with downlink (DL) transmission time interval (TTI) scheduling so each DRX ON duration may correspond to a DL burst duration of the corresponding eCC. The eCC DRX ON durations may also be scheduled according to hybrid automatic repeat request (HARD) process scheduling. In some examples, eCC DRX ON durations may be based on listen-before-talk (LBT) procedures. In some cases, eCC DRX ON durations may be configured to contain an uplink (UL) burst to enable channel state information (CSI) reporting. The eCC DRX may also be configured to minimize interruption of the PCell.

Abstract translation: 描述了用于无线通信的方法，系统和设备。 非连续接收（DRX）操作可能以不同的上比在其他分量载波，包括一个主小区（PCell）增强的分量载波（ECCS）进行配置。 在一些情况下，用户设备（UE）可以配置有几种不同的eCC DRX模式。 例如，eCC DRX配置可以与下行链路（DL）传输时间间隔（TTI）调度协调，因此每个DRX ON持续时间可以对应于相应eCC的DL突发持续时间。 eCC DRX ON持续时间也可以根据混合自动重传请求（HARD）进程调度进行调度。 在一些例子中，ECC DRX开启持续时间可基于先听后讲（LBT）的程序。 在一些情况下，ECC DRX ON持续时间可以被配置为包含上行链路（UL）突发，以使信道状态信息（CSI）报告。 eCC DRX也可以被配置为最小化PCell的中断。
