    摘要: Configurations for configured grant (CG) in new radio unlicensed (NR-U) systems is disclosed. CG configurations may, based on a periodicity, be provided either using a bitmap, shorter periodicity, or resource indicator value (RIV) signaling of start/end symbols, longer periodicity. Such CG configurations configure M sets of time division resource allocations. CG configuration may include common start/end symbols from for all contiguous allocations in one configuration. Common LBT starting points may be defined for all configured slots as indicated through a bitmap. The CG configuration allows for mini- and full slot configurations, in which the mini-slots are configured within the already configured CG slots. Repetition configurations include a type 1 for coverage and a type 2 for faster retransmission and reduced downlink feedback information (DFI) overhead. With multiple UEs, a UE identifier is added to the uplink control information (UCI). UEs may further ramp up power in the absence of DFI.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A wireless communications system may support grants for uplink or downlink transmission over multiple transmission time intervals (TTIs). A multi-TTI grant may include a base grant and an extended grant that include separate information and may be transmitted simultaneously (e.g., within the same TTI) or separately. A grant type (e.g., whether a grant is a base grant or an extended grant) or an association between a base grant and an extended grant may be conveyed (e.g., via the multi-TTI grant). A downlink assignment index (DAI) may be included for one or more TTIs subject to the multi-TTI. For instance, DAI may be included for each TTI or for a subset of TTIs.

    摘要: A user equipment (UE) may employ an extended cyclic prefix, a postfix, or both for sounding reference signal (SRS) transmissions, such that gaps between SRS transmissions are long enough for UE antenna switching operations, but shorter in duration than any maximum channel vacancy time durations set by a wireless communications system. Further, UEs may transmit SRSs to base stations in accordance with an SRS configuration. For example, a base station may provide SRS configuration information to a UE that indicates, for example, information related to SRS scheduling, subband information, a cyclic prefix length, a cyclic postfix length, listen-before-talk (LBT) type information, an SRS trigger, an SRS cancellation procedure, or any combinations thereof. Based on such SRS configuration information, a UE may perform partial subband SRS techniques, subband selection techniques, SRS bandwidth adaptation techniques, LBT type configuration techniques, etc.

    摘要: Wireless communications systems and methods related to uplink (UL) communications in a wireless network are provided. In one embodiment, a first wireless communication device receives a transmission grant indicating a transmission period. The first wireless communication device selects a starting location for transmitting a communication signal from among a plurality of starting locations within the transmission period. The first wireless communication device transmits the communication signal during the transmission period based on the selected starting location. In one embodiment, a first wireless communication device transmits, to a second wireless communication device, a transmission grant indicating a transmission period. The first wireless communication device monitors for a communication signal from the second wireless communication device in the transmission period. The first wireless communication device identifies, upon detection of the communication signal, a starting location of the communication signal from among a plurality of starting locations within the transmission period.

    摘要: Wireless communications systems and methods related to communications in a network are provided. A user equipment (UE) may generate during a first time period, an uplink (UL) communication signal based on a scheduled grant or a configured UL grant. The UE may detect a downlink (DL) communication from a base station (BS) during a second time period after the first time period. The DL communication is devoid of the scheduled grant and the configured UL grant. The UE may transmit to the BS, the UL communication signal based on the scheduled grant or the configured UL grant in response to detecting the DL communication.
