    Abstract: Bandwidth part (BWP) configurations supporting various communication approaches (e.g., full duplex and/or half duplex operations) are described. Full duplex (FD) frequency-based BWP configurations may, for example, be configured as a subset of defined BWP resources for supporting full duplex operation by base stations and/or user equipments (UEs). Usable bandwidth of a FD frequency-based BWP configuration may be selected from half duplex frequency-based BWPs in legacy BWPs. Bandwidths of usable BWPs for a FD frequency-based BWP configuration may be selected so as to be non-overlapping in frequency. Transition between configurations and modes (e.g., between full duplex frequency-based BWP configurations, between half duplex and full duplex modes, etc.) may be managed to avoid periods in which a communication device cannot perform any uplink or downlink transmissions due to switching between defined BWP configurations, or otherwise reduces BWP switching time. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) to determine a time gap between receiving a paging early indication (PEI) and receiving a paging message based on a link quality of the UE. The UE may determine the time gap based on a number of reference signals the UE may measure after receiving the PEI to obtain channel information for accurately decoding a forthcoming paging message and a periodicity of the reference signals. The UE may transmit UE assistance information (UAI) to the base station during an active state to indicate the time gap. The UE may receive a configuration message from the base station indicating a configured time gap for the UE based on the UAI. The UE may receive the PEI and monitor a paging occasion for the paging message according to the configured time gap.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a user equipment (UE) may be configured for discontinuous reception (DRX) operations using wakeup signals. The UE may monitor periodic wakeup signal occasions for wakeup signals and, in the event that the UE detects a wakeup indication that the UE is to initiate an active duration, the UE may power on transmit/receive circuitry for communications with a base station. In an absence of receiving the wakeup indication, the UE may be configured to transmit an uplink reference signal (e.g., a sounding reference signal) to the base station in an inactive duration of a DRX cycle in some cases. The uplink reference signal may be measured at the base station and used to determine one or more parameters for subsequent communications with the UE.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for managing remote interference using a previously detected relationship between an aggressor base station and a victim base station. The described techniques provide for allocating reference signal sequences for various victim base stations to send to an aggressor base station. The victim base station may trigger the aggressor base station to perform reference signal monitoring based on the previously detected victim-aggressor relationship, and may transmit a reference signal carrying a unique identifier based on the triggering. The first base station may send a request that the second base station to transmit a reference signal for enabling the first base station to measure interference of a wireless channel, and performing interference mitigation techniques at the first base station, the second base station, or both, to mitigate the remote interference.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support hybrid systems sidelink (SL) operations. In a first aspect, an apparatus obtains a resource reservation for a subsequent transmission over an SL, the reservation of a resource in a resource pool, and the resource spanning at least one sub-channel of a plurality of sub-channels. The apparatus further transmits an indication of the resource reservation to at least one other UE, where the UE is of a first type and the at least one other UE is of a second type. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a base station may transmit a plurality of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) communications in a same PDCCH monitoring occasion in a first cell, and may transmit a plurality of physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) communications in at least one of the first cell or a second cell. Each of the PDCCH communications schedules a respective PDSCH communication of the plurality of PDSCH communications. A PDCCH communication, of the plurality of PDCCH communications, includes an indication of a counter downlink assignment index that is based at least in part on a combination of a starting symbol and a cell in which an associated PDSCH communication is to be transmitted, a cell index of the cell in which the associated PDSCH communication is to be transmitted, and the PDCCH monitoring occasion. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a non-terrestrial network (NTN) entity, a configuration message that indicates first paging monitoring occasions (MOs) for first consecutive synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) to be transmitted in a first set of beams and second paging MOs for second consecutive SSBs to be transmitted in a second set of beams. The UE may monitor for the first consecutive SSBs during the first paging MOs and for the second consecutive SSBs during the second paging MOs such that the first paging MOs overlap in time with the second paging MOs. Numerous other aspects are provided.
