    Abstract: Generally, the described techniques provide for a device determining or receiving signaling including a packet delivery time window configuration that indicates delivery windows within which transmissions may be held and/or delivery opportunities within which communications are expected to be transmitted. For example, the device may identify a packet delivery time window configuration for communications with another device. The packet delivery window configuration may indicate a periodicity, offset, start time, end time, and/or duration of the delivery windows, among other information. Based on the identified packet delivery time window configuration, the device may delay transmission of the data packet (e.g., for the duration of one or more configured delivery windows). At, for example, the end of the respective delivery window, the device may deliver the data packet to a network device for which the information of the data packet is to be used.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for an extended feature indication in new radio (NR), such as for slice specific extension (SSE). Aspects provide a method that may be performed by a transmitter device, such as a user equipment (UE) or a network node (e.g., a base station (BS)). The method generally includes determining a network node supports an extended feature, the extended feature being associated with an extended feature identifier. The transmitter device transmits a message, the message including the extended feature identifier and an indication that the apparatus is using the extended feature. A receiver device can receive the message and process the message and/or one or more subsequent messages based on the indication that the transmitter device is using the extended feature and the extended feature identifier.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may obtain a timing synchronization signal from a base station over a cellular wireless communication link. The UE may configure, based at least in part on the timing synchronization signal, a timer function of the UE as a precision time protocol (PTP) server. The UE may configure a PTP announce message based on the timer function and, in some examples, one or more metrics of the cellular wireless communication link. The UE may transmit the PTP announce message over a local communication network.

    Abstract: One embodiment of seamless device configuration between a network device and an access point sends a device credential associated with the network device to the access point before the network device communicates with the access point. The device credential can be used to verify the identity of the network device and can authenticate the network device with the access point without requiring user interaction. Another embodiment can incorporate a central authority maintaining a database of network devices, access points and associated users. The central authority can determine when one or more network devices can seamlessly be configured for use with a particular access point. The central authority can send the device credential associated with the one or more network devices to the access point before the network device communicates with the access point.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for dealing with mutual clock drifts for communications over multiple RATs by maintaining a guard interval. A guard interval is a time interval during which no transmissions should occur. For example, the guard interval may be set relative to a scheduled interference interval of a STA so that transmissions to the STA from an AP will not collide with different RAT (e.g., interference) transmissions/receptions even with clock drift (e.g., a guard interval at both sides of the scheduled interference interval). Such an approach may allow the clocks to be re-synchronized (e.g., by the STA notifying the AP of the schedule of interference interval) infrequently to avoid excessive signaling overhead, which would increase with an increase in the number of coexistence STAs being serviced by the AP.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for enhancing a device provisioning protocol (DPP) to support multiple configurators. In one aspect, a first configurator device can export a configurator key package. In one aspect, the configurator key package may be used for backup and restore of the configurator keys. The configurator key package may include a configurator private signing key and, optionally, a configurator public verification key. A second configurator device may obtain the configurator key package and also may obtain decryption information which can be used to decrypt the configurator key package. Thus, in another aspect, both the first configurator device and the second configurator device can use the same configurator keys with the device provisioning protocol to configure enrollees to a network.
