    Abstract: Techniques and apparatus for hybrid automatic retransmission request (HARQ) acknowledgement (ACK) bundling in half duplex frequency division duplexing (HD-FDD) systems are provided. One technique includes determining ACK parameter(s) to be used for acknowledging a bundled transmission that includes instance(s) of a channel across subframe(s). An indication of the ACK parameter(s) is signaled to a user equipment (UE). The ACK parameter(s) include a first ACK parameter that conveys a size of the bundled transmission and a second ACK parameter that conveys an amount of time for the UE to delay acknowledging a data transmission in an instance of the channel after receiving the data transmission. The UE may acknowledge the bundled transmission in accordance with the ACK parameter(s).

    Abstract: There is a need to support narrowband TDD frame structure for narrowband communications. The present disclosure provides a solution by supporting one or more narrowband TDD frame structure(s) for narrowband communications. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may determine a narrowband TDD frame structure for narrowband communications. The apparatus may also determine a PUSCH format of a group of PUSCH formats for allocating at least one RU to a UE for a NPUCCH. In addition, the apparatus may allocate the at least one RU to the UE using the determined PUSCH format. In one aspect, the RU may include one or more subcarriers in each of one or more slots.

    Abstract: There is a need to support narrowband TDD frame structure for narrowband communications. The present disclosure provides a solution by supporting one or more narrowband TDD frame structure(s) for narrowband communications. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may determine to transmit a narrowband physical downlink channel in a subframe in a narrowband TDD frame structure of a plurality of narrowband TDD frame structures for narrowband communications. In addition, the apparatus may determine whether the subframe is a special subframe or a downlink subframe when the narrowband TDD frame structure includes one or more special subframes. Further, the apparatus may determine how to transmit a narrowband physical downlink channel based on the determination whether the subframe is a special subframe or a downlink subframe. Additionally, the apparatus may transmit the narrowband physical downlink channel.

    Abstract: There is a need to support narrowband TDD frame structure for narrowband communications. The present disclosure provides a solution by supporting one or more narrowband TDD frame structure(s) for narrowband communications. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may determine a TDD mode for narrowband communications. The apparatus may determine a TDD frame structure for the narrowband communications from a group of narrowband TDD frame structures. In one aspect, at least one common subframe in each narrowband TDD frame structure in the group of narrowband TDD frame structures may be configured as a downlink subframe. The apparatus may transmit a PSS using the at least one common subframe in the narrowband TDD frame structure determined for the narrowband communications.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for applying rules to determine when to retune radio components of a user equipment (UE). Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications by a UE. The method includes determining first resources assigned to the UE in a first subframe and second resources assigned to the UE for uplink transmissions in a second subframe. The method further includes determining whether to retune radio frequency (RF) circuitry prior to transmitting in the second subframe based on at least one rule involving an overlap between the first resources and second resources.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for blind detection of cell-specific reference signals. Methods and apparatus are provided for detecting a cell-specific reference signal (CRS) in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) symbol by a user equipment (UE). The method generally includes predicting a current channel response of a current OFDM symbol based on a channel response of at least one previous OFDM symbol, estimating a noise power level of the current OFDM symbol, forming a log likelihood ratio (LLR) of two detection hypotheses based on the predicted current channel response and the estimated noise power level, comparing the LLR to a pre-determined threshold, and determining that at least one CRS is present in the current OFDM symbol based on the comparison.
