    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE), such as a UE with reduced capabilities, may switch from a first bandwidth part (BWP) to a second BWP to receive system information for a carrier that includes the first and second BWPs. The UE may switch to the second BWP to receive system information based on a trigger (e.g., control signaling or an expiration of a timer) and then switch back to the first BWP without additional signaling to continue operation. In some examples, the UE may receive additional signaling (e.g., data, control signaling, reference signals) in the second BWP. In some examples, a BWP switching duration may include additional time to process the system information received in the second BWP, for example if the system information includes instructions to switch to a third BWP (e.g., rather than returning to the first BWP).

    Abstract: The apparatus may be a first device at a first RU (e.g., UE, base station, etc.). The first RU may be configured to receive, from a control unit, a configuration for relaying or repeating data received from a second RU to a receiving unit. The first RU may further be configured to determine whether first feedback associated with the data is received from the second RU. The first RU may also be configured to transmit second feedback to the receiving unit or the control unit, the second feedback including first information indicating at least one of the first feedback or whether the first feedback was received.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for beam switching by a repeater node that forwards communications from one of a first node or a second node to the other of the first node or the second node. For example, after a change of position by the second node, the first node may provide the repeater node an instruction to perform a beam change operation to communicate with the second node. In some aspects, performing the beam change operation by the repeater node may improve reliability of wireless communications, such as by focusing signal energy in a particular direction. Further, a beam change delay time interval or a scheduling of the beam change delay time interval may be selected based on scheduling associated with other nodes, which may reduce a number of messages sent to the repeater node (such as by reducing instructions to change beam directions).

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. For example, the described techniques provide for a base station of a wireless communications system to determine a configuration for a repeating device to forward signals to another device. In some examples, the configuration may be based on a number of repeating devices in the wireless communications system. The base station may also transmit a message for the repeating device to forward. In some examples, based on a buffering capability of the repeating device, the base station may transmit the message with a zero time offset relative to the control signaling. The repeating device may receive and process the control signaling and receive and buffer the message. In response to processing the control signaling, the repeating device may transmit the buffered message to another device. Implementing aspects of present disclosure may enable an increased efficiency of forwarding in wireless communications systems.
