Abstract: In an embodiment, a UE determines a maximum duration to which a UE shall remain active after a DRX ON period to transmit and/or process one or more reference signals for positioning associated with a positioning session. The UE transmits an indication of the maximum value to a BS. The UE and the BS each selectively transmit and/or process the one or more reference signals (e.g., DL PRSs and/or UL SRS-Ps) based at least in part upon the maximum duration.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure include methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for receiving first downlink information, failing to decode a first portion of the first downlink information, transmitting, to a base station (BS), a first response including a negative acknowledgement (NACK) indicating a first decoding failure associated with the first portion of the first downlink information, receiving second downlink information, failing to decode a first portion of the second downlink information, detecting a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) buffer unavailability, determining to discard NACK information associated with the NACK, resetting at least a portion of a HARQ buffer, in response to detecting the HARQ buffer unavailability, by discarding NACK information associated with the NACK, generating a reset NACK indicating the HARQ buffer reset and indicating the NACK information being discarded, and transmitting a second response including the reset NACK to the BS.

Abstract: In order to overcome problems that a UE may face in determining a default beam for communication with the base station during a COT, a method, apparatus, and computer-readable medium are provided for a base station to indicate to the UE which CORESET(s), QCL assumptions, UL resources, and/or spatial relationships are selected for a COT. A UE receives, from a base station, an indication corresponding to a COT. The indication is for at least one of a set of CORESETs, a set of QCL assumptions, a set of UL resources, or a set of spatial relations for determining a default beam. The UE determines the default beam from the base station for use during the COT based on the indication. The UE transmits or receives a transmission using the default beam.

Abstract: A configuration to allow for scheduling communication with a UE having associated characteristics based on a timing indication. The apparatus receives, from a UE, a timing indication associated with a bandwidth, a subcarrier spacing, or a waveform. The timing indication identifying a delay duration based on a processing timeline for the UE. The apparatus receives from the UE, or transmits to the UE, a first data channel having the bandwidth, the subcarrier spacing, or the waveform scheduled based on the timing indication. The first data channel is transmitted or received at a first time based on the timing indication.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to apparatus and methods of monitoring a region by a transmitting device within a wireless medium for transmissions using at least one directional beam covering the region. Upon determining that the region in the wireless medium is free of transmissions, the transmitting device transmits to a plurality of wireless devices in the region using a plurality of spatially separated directional beams. Other aspects of the disclosure relate to apparatus and methods for receiving an instruction, e.g., at a user equipment (UE), to perform a channel assessment at a first time. The UE monitors a region within a wireless medium for transmissions after receiving the instruction. Upon determining that the region is free of transmissions, the UE may send an acknowledgment of the received instruction

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may detect a synchronization signal block (SSB) within a discovery reference signal (DRS) transmission window that includes more than 64 candidate SSB positions, determine an index value of the SSB based at least in part on an indexing scheme for SSBs that are included in the DRS transmission window, wherein the indexing scheme includes one of a consecutive indexing scheme or a non-consecutive indexing scheme; and determine a cell timing based at least in part on the index value. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Aspects are provided that allow a base station to provide a user equipment (UE) multiple timing opportunities to transmit an acknowledgment to a pre-grant (APG) after receiving a pre-grant for a downlink transmission. The base station transmits to the UE a pre-grant for a downlink transmission from the base station, the pre-grant triggering a plurality of timing opportunities for the UE to send an APG to the base station. The UE performs, after receiving the pre-grant, a clear channel assessment (CCA) during at least one timing opportunity of the plurality of timing opportunities. The UE transmits one or more APGs to the base station when the CCA is successful, and the UE receives the downlink transmission from the base station in response to the one or more APGs. The UE transmits the one or more APGs to the base station until the downlink transmission is received from the base station.

Abstract: Aspects are provided which improve LBT by associating contention windows with transmission burst lengths and by allowing contention windows and maximum burst lengths to be adjusted based on interference activity. For downlink, a UE receives a PG for a downlink transmission from a base station indicating a CCA length based on a contention window size associated at least with a burst length for the downlink transmission. The UE performs, after receiving the pre-grant, a CCA based on the CCA length, transmits an APG to the base station when the CCA is successful, and receives the downlink transmission in response to the APG. For uplink, the base station performs a CCA based on a contention window associated at least with a burst length for an uplink transmission, transmits an uplink grant to the UE when the CCA is successful, and receives the uplink transmission in response to the uplink grant.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for managing beam selection. In one aspect, an initiating wireless device may determine whether a pre-grant acknowledgement associated with a first beam has been received from a responding wireless device within an expected receive time. The initiating wireless device may generate an indication to prevent the initiating wireless device from using the first beam for a blocking duration in response to determining that the pre-grant acknowledgement associated with the first beam has not been received within the expected receive time.
