Abstract: Various aspects of the disclosure relate to event triggers for independent links. For example, an event trigger may be based on measurements from multiple links. In some aspects, the independent links may involve a first device (e.g., a user equipment) communicating via different independent links with different devices (e.g., transmit receive points (TRPs) or sets of TRPs). For example, the first device may communicate with a second device (e.g., a TRP) via a first link and communicate with a third device (e.g., a TRP) via a second link. In some scenarios, an event trigger may be based on aggregated measurements from multiple links.

Abstract: Various aspects of the disclosure relate to beam information for independent links. For example, beam information for one link may be sent on at least one other link. In some aspects, the independent links may involve a first device (e.g., a user equipment) communicating via different independent links with different devices (e.g., transmit receive points (TRPs) or sets of TRPs). For example, the first device may communicate with a second device (e.g., a TRP) via a first link and communicate with a third device (e.g., a TRP) via a second link. In some scenarios, one link can indicate beam switching for at least one other link. In some scenarios, one link can indicate link recovery for at least one other link. In some scenarios, one link can indicate link failure for at least one other link.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for protecting overhead and common channel transmissions in a NR shared spectrum system. A BS of a first operator may receive information regarding at least one overhead transmission associated with a wireless device of a second operator and may protect one or more overhead signal transmissions of the wireless device based, at least in part, on the received information. A UE may detect information associated with at least one overhead transmission from a wireless device associated with a first operator and may transmit the information regarding the detected overhead transmission to a BS associated with a second operator. A UE served by a BS associated with a first operator may detect a wireless device (e.g., another UE or a BS) associated with a second operator. The UE may report an identification of the wireless device to the BS.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for wireless communications are described. The aspects relate to a frame structure for new radio shared spectrum. For instance, the frame structure may provide shared medium access by multiple operators in a new radio shared spectrum system. Specifically, the present aspects provide for utilizing reservation preambles associated with a distinct operator for announcing to other operators a reservation of at least one transmission opportunity of a given frame in the new radio shared spectrum.

Abstract: Techniques for performing peer discovery in a wireless network are described. A device may perform peer discovery to detect and identify other devices of interest. In an aspect, the device may perform peer discovery based on a hybrid mode that includes autonomous peer discovery and network-assisted peer discovery. In another aspect, the device may perform peer discovery based on a push mode and a pull mode. For the push mode, the device may occasionally transmit and/or receive a peer detection signal. For the pull mode, the device may transmit and/or receive a peer discovery request when triggered. In yet another aspect, the device may perform event-triggered peer discovery (e.g., for the pull mode). In yet another aspect, the device may perform peer discovery using both a downlink spectrum and an uplink spectrum. In yet another aspect, the device may transmit a peer detection signal in a manner to improve detection and/or increase payload.

Abstract: Channel state information (CSI) request procedures are disclosed for use in long term evolution (LTE)/LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) networks with unlicensed spectrum. Instead of relying on periodic reference signals which may not be transmitted because of failed clear channel assessment (CCA) operations, an aperiodic reference signal is defined that provides an on-demand reference signal and CSI request for user equipment (UE), The serving base station transmits an identifier, which signals that the aperiodic reference signal will be transmitted, either in the same subframe or a future subframe, and then transmits the aperiodic reference signal in the designated subframe. UEs served by the base station will receive the identifier, identify a CSI request, either implicitly through the identifier signal received from the base station or explicitly through a UE-specific CSI request, and then generate a CSI report based on the aperiodic reference signal for transmission back to the serving base station.

Abstract: Techniques are described for preempting resource allocations to one or more UEs in the event that delay sensitive data is received. A resource allocation of a number of symbols may be granted to a first user equipment (UE) for first associated data to be transmitted. Subsequently, data may be received for a second UE that is more delay sensitive than the first data. The resource allocation to the first UE may be preempted, and resources allocated to the second UE for the second data within a variable length transmission time interval (TTI) of the resource allocation to the first UE. UEs may monitor for preemption during transmissions to other UEs in order to receive new resource grants associated with the preempted resource grant. Whether a UE monitors transmissions for preemption may be determined based on a quality or service (QoS) of the UE.

Abstract: Reference signal and transmitter (Tx)/receiver (Rx) precoding for user equipment (UE) multiplexing in new radio (NR) shared spectrum networks is discussed. In certain reference signals, a base station may schedule multiple UEs for transmission of uplink reference signals within an identified subframe. The base station may transmit a reference signal configuration message, wherein the reference signal configuration message includes a transmission sequence identifier identifying a multiplexing for antenna ports assigned for transmission of the uplink reference signals. The multiplexing may be one or both of frequency divisional multiplexing (FDM) and time division multiplexing (TDM) over the identified subframe. Additional reference signals, transmit precoders may be identified by the base station based on channel inversion calculations of the channel matrix determined based on uplink reference signals.

Abstract: Techniques for synchronization across transmitting nodes of a same public land mobile network (PLMN) operator using a shared radio frequency spectrum band may include initiating, at a first wireless node, a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure for access to the shared radio frequency spectrum band, and identifying that a second wireless node associated with a same PLMN operator as the first wireless node has won contention for the shared radio frequency spectrum band. The first wireless node may discontinue the LBT procedure and initiate an auxiliary transmission using the shared radio frequency spectrum band concurrently with a primary transmission of the second wireless node.

Abstract: A network operator may synchronize access for wireless nodes (e.g., base stations) associated with the network operator. However, each network operator of a group of network operators may not synchronize access among the group. A lack of synchronization between network operators intending to utilize shared channels of a wireless communication system may result in a failure to utilize all available network resources. In some aspects, a device associated with a first network operator, of a plurality of network operators, may listen for communications associated with other network operators, of the plurality of network operators in a shared radio frequency spectrum band, during a set of intervals of a transmission opportunity of a channel for which the other network operators have a higher priority, and may communicate, using the channel, with a wireless node associated with the network operator based at least in part on the listening for communications.
