Abstract:
In the present disclosure, CSI and/or a plurality of ACK/NACKs related to a group of DL data transmissions may be buffered at the UE as a GACK until a DCI trigger is received from the eNB. When the DCI trigger is received, the UE may transmit the CSI and/or GACK. In this way, HARQ feedback and/or CSI may be reliably communicated even if a CCA does not clear and/or UL subframes are unavailable. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. In an aspect, the apparatus may be a UE. The apparatus monitors one or more subframes for a DCI trigger. In a further aspect, the apparatus receives the DCI trigger in a subframe. In another aspect, the apparatus transmits UCI using a subsequent subframe.
Abstract:
Various aspects described herein relate to communicating a scheduling request (SR) in a wireless network. A frame structure that allows dynamic switching of transmission time intervals (TTI) between uplink and downlink communications may be used to communicate with a network entity. At least one SR mode can be selected for SR transmission to the network entity in one or more of the TTIs configured for uplink communications based at least in part on the frame structure. The SR can be transmitted to the network entity in at least one uplink TTI of the one or more TTIs configured for uplink communications based at least in part on the at least one SR mode.
Abstract:
A method performed by an apparatus is described. The method includes receiving map data that is based on first image data, second image data, and a similarity metric. The first image data can be received from a first vehicle and represent an object. The second image data can be received from a second vehicle and represent the object. The similarity metric can be associated with the object represented in the first image data and the object represented in the second image data. The method can also include storing, by a vehicle, the received map data and localizing the vehicle based on the stored map data.
Abstract:
Certain aspects relate to methods and apparatus for latency reduction for UEs in a RRC connected mode. During contention-based uplink access by groups of UEs within a subframe, an eNB may decode the received uplink transmission based, at least in part, on the assigned group of resources assigned to the UE and used for transmission. Additional orthogonalization techniques such as reduced TTI size can be used to reduce collisions among different users performing contention-based transmissions. Furthermore, when the eNB fails to successfully decode the uplink transmission, the eNB may identify the UE that sent the uplink transmission based on a detected reference signal and may transmit an uplink assignment to the identified UE.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods, in one or more aspect, provide feedback with respect to downlink grant feedback communications received by a user equipment (UE). The apparatus and methods monitor for signals from a network entity on one or more channels, and determine, based on the monitoring, whether one or more grants are received and whether UE data is received on the one or more channels. Further, the apparatus and methods generate a feedback indication having a feedback value determined according to a feedback rule and based on whether the one or more grants and the UE data are received. Additionally, the apparatus and methods transmit the feedback indication to the network entity on a resource determined according to the feedback rule and based on whether the one or more grants and the UE data are received.
Abstract:
Techniques for handover procedure management are described herein. An example method may include monitoring, at a target base station, reference signal information associated with a UE based on a reference signal configuration of the UE received by the target base station from a source base station. Additionally, the example method may include estimating, at the target base station, timing information for the UE based on the reference signal information. Further, the example method may include transmitting, by the target base station, the timing information to the source base station, where the source base station provides the timing information to the UE for handover to the target base station.
Abstract:
According to the present disclosure, CSI and/or a plurality of ACKs related to a group of DL data transmissions may be buffered at the UE as a GACK until a DCI trigger is received from the eNB. Once the trigger is received, the UE may transmit the CSI and/or GACK to the eNB. In this way HARQ feedback and/or CSI may be reliably communicated while reducing payload. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus send, to a UE, data transmissions associated with a first plurality of downlink subframes. In an aspect, the apparatus increments a counter for each data transmission sent to the UE. In a further aspect, the apparatus transmits, to the UE, a first trigger for a first GACK when a counter is greater than or equal to a threshold.

Abstract:
Certain aspects relate to methods and apparatus for discovering whether one or more enhanced capabilities are supported by devices (e.g., user equipment (UE), base station (BS), etc.) in a network. The enhanced capabilities may include, for example, the ability to support certain low latency procedures, enhanced component carrier (eCC) capability, and the like. The devices in the network may perform one or more handover-related procedures (e.g., cell selection/reselection, make-before-break handover, etc.) and/or other procedures (e.g., QoS negotiation, etc.) based, at least in part, on support for the one or more enhanced capabilities.
