Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may monitor for sidelink messages among multiple UEs using transmission-side sensing. The first UE may monitor for sidelink messages over a transmit beam selected for transmitting data from the first UE. The first UE may receive, from a second UE, a sidelink message including an indication of resources reserved for sidelink transmissions to the second UE. Based on the indication, the first UE may select available resources over which to transmit data. The first UE may receive the sidelink message over a sidelink feedback channel.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support control of feedback reporting associated with broadcast or multicast transmissions based on indications of non-numerical K1 (NNK1) in associated transmission grants. In aspects, a base station transmits multicast transmission grants that include NNK1s to a set of UEs. The UEs in the set of UEs generate feedback codebooks, for the multicast transmissions, and holds transmission of the codebooks, based on the NNK1 received in the transmission grants until a report triggering event occurs. In aspects, the report triggering event includes receiving a subsequent multicast transmission grant with a valid K1, receiving a subsequent unicast transmission grant with valid K1, or receiving a UE-specific multicast retransmission grant. In aspects, the UEs use the valid K1 in the triggering event to determine a feedback resource to transmit the held feedback codebooks. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

Abstract: Network-controlled power control for side-link communications is disclosed. According to the described aspects, a power control framework is defined for network-controlled side-band or device-to-device (D2D) communications, in which transmission power for side-link communications may be stepped up enough for a base station in a connected mode with at least one of multiple user equipment (UE) devices to detect side-link communications between the UEs in order to take responsive action to enhance the reliability of the communications. The base station provides the configuration information to the UEs which may be used when preparing for transmissions of side-link traffic and/or feedback.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for enabling repetitive transmissions for low latency systems is disclosed. For example, a base station may determine whether an uplink coverage parameter for a UE communicating with the network entity on an uplink communication channel satisfies an uplink coverage threshold, and transmit an activation message for repetition-based uplink communications to the UE based on a determination that the uplink coverage parameter for the UE communicating with the network entity on the uplink communication channel satisfies the uplink coverage threshold. Further, a UE may receive an activation message for repetition-based uplink communications from a network entity, and perform repetitive transmissions on the uplink communication channel for the duration indicated by the one or more transmission parameters in the activation message, the repetitive transmissions being configured based on the uplink sTTI pattern.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) may include: receiving a multicast bandwidth part configuration for multicast communications between a base station and the UE, where the multicast bandwidth part configuration includes a maximum number of multiple-input, multiple-output layers to be used for the multicast communications; establishing a multicast link with the base station for multicast communications; determining to use a reduced number of antennas for multicast reception than the number of antennas used for unicast reception, or determining that the UE is able to decode the multicast communications prior to a remaining portion of the multicast communications; and receiving the multicast communications via the reduced number of antennas, or reducing the radio frequency power prior to completion of a number of repetitions or retransmissions of the multicast communications.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to techniques for applying a beam switch interruption time across one or more active component carriers. In some cases a UE may be able to detect an actual overlap condition in which two physical downlink control channels (PDCCHs) monitoring occasions with different beam parameters overlap in time or a soft overlap condition in which a distance between the two PDCCH monitoring occasions in time is less than a threshold value; and to apply a prioritization rule to determine which of the PDCCH monitoring occasions to monitor for PDCCHs in response to detect the actual overlap or a soft overlap (e.g., almost immediately in contact in time or the gap is very small compared to the slot size).

Abstract: Enhancements to downlink feedback information (DFI) signaling is disclosed. According to the disclosed aspects, indications of DFI presence in downlink control information (DCI) messaging are provided that limit any increase to DCI overhead for uplink grants. In a first aspect, DFI presence may be signaled using unused or disallowed DCI variable states for indication of DFI presence. In another aspect, a separate bit may be added to a DCI message for indicating DFI presence. Additional aspects include repurposing DCI fields which are specific to cell radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI)-based uplink grants, or may defining a new RNTI (e.g., DFI-RNTI) for indicating DFI presence. Further aspects may provide for radio resource control (RRC) signaling that configures which DCI variable state can be used to indicate DFI presence.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network entity, a configuration of at least one sounding reference signal (SRS) resource, wherein the configuration indicates a pseudo-random sequence for muting an SRS associated with the at least one SRS resource. The UE may transmit the SRS using the at least one SRS resource based at least in part on the pseudo-random sequence. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Techniques for wireless communications are described. A mode for reporting uplink control information may be selected when a first serving cell and a second serving cell are both configured with uplink control resources. The reporting modes may include a mode for transmitting uplink control information over one uplink control resource or over multiple uplink control resources. Multiple sets of uplink control information may be separately generated for different sets of component carriers or different transmission/reception points. After selecting the reporting mode, the multiple sets of uplink control information may be transmitted over one or multiple uplink control resources in accordance with the selected reporting mode. Communication devices may switch between the reporting modes based on obtained information or calculations.
