Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a set of reference signals from a base station and may determine a first set of channel state parameters. The UE may determine one or more preprocessed decoder parameters based on a downlink channel decoder of the UE and may perform one or more signal processing operations to determine one or more adjustment values for the first set of channel state parameters. The UE may transmit an indication of a the one or more adjustment values to the base station. In some implementations, the UE may transmit an indication of the one or more preprocessed decoder parameters to the base station and the base station may perform the one or more signal processing operations to determine the one or more adjustment values.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for handling collisions between PUSCH and sounding reference signal (SRS) on additional SRS symbols in an uplink subframe using carrier aggregation. The techniques provide rules that a user equipment (UE) may apply to decide if and when to drop or apply power scaling to SRS or PUSCH transmissions scheduled on overlapping time resources.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a request that the UE report a predicted future channel state information measurement. Upon receiving the request, the UE may measure, during a first time period, a channel to obtain measured channel state information. The UE may then determine the predicted future channel state information for a second time period based on the measured channel state information. In some case, the second time period may be subsequent to the first time period. Upon determining the predicted future channel state information measurement, the UE may transmit, to the base station, a channel state information report. In some aspects, the channel state information report may be indicative of the predicted future channel state information measurement.
Abstract:
In an aspect, a method of wireless communication includes receiving, by a user equipment (UE), downlink control information (DCI) having a resource allocation of allocated physical resource blocks (PRBs). The method additionally includes employing at least one of a) a wideband decoder, b) a wideband channel estimator, c) a bandwidth-specific decoder, or d) a bandwidth-specific channel estimator for wireless communications based at least on a feature of the resource allocation in the DCI. In other aspects a UE transmits, to a base station, an indication of UE capabilities regarding support of wideband physical resource group (PRG) for various transmission time interval (TTI) durations.

Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment concurrently communicates with a source base station (BS) and a target BS on a connection with the source BS and a connection with the target BS as part of a make-before-break (MBB) handover procedure; and performs a common packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) function for the connection with the source BS and the connection with the target BS before the connection with the source BS is released as part of the MBB handover procedure. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for the user equipment (UE) to select a power management mode from a plurality of power management modes supported by the UE based on decoding of a portion of the downlink subframe. For example, when the UE receives a subframe from a base station, the UE may decode a control channel region of the subframe to determine whether the subframe includes a channel grant allocated to the UE. If no channel grant is included in the subframe, the UE may select a power management mode for the UE from the plurality of power management modes supported by the UE that maximizes the UE's sleep opportunities while balancing the deficient performance costs.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. An exemplary method includes receiving a signal corresponding to a frequency band, scanning for communications activity within the frequency band, wherein scanning for communications activity within the frequency band comprises performing a correlation calculation on samples of the signal, and determining whether to attempt a connection establishment within the frequency band based at least in part on the correlation calculation on samples of the signal. When the scanning identifies an indication of activity, a scanning device may attempt to establish a connection with a base station within the frequency band. When the scanning identifies an indication of no activity, a scanning device may refrain from attempting to establish a connection with a base station within the frequency band, and may perform the correlation-enhanced frequency scanning on a different frequency band.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus determines whether a channel quality indicator (CQI) is to be reported during any one of x subframes immediately after a start of a next on-duration, an on-duration being a duration over which a downlink control channel is monitored every discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle, and x being a number of subframes used to generate a CQI report, schedules a wake-up time for reporting the CQI when the CQI is to be reported during any one of the x subframes immediately after the start of the next on-duration, and reports the CQI based on a reference subframe. The CQI may be based on a last subframe of a previous DRX cycle active time, and reported at a first subframe of the next on-duration.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for determining a reference sequence and timing based on normalized correlations are described. One example method generally includes receiving, at a first antenna of an apparatus, a first signal comprising a reference sequence; receiving, at a second antenna of the apparatus, a second signal comprising the same reference sequence; sampling the first and second signals to form first and second signal sequences; correlating the first and second signal sequences with each of one or more candidate sequences for the reference sequence using normalization; and determining the reference sequence and timing for the first and second signals based on the normalized correlations.
