Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Described techniques provide for mitigating error in time or frequency adjustments for preambles of a random access procedure. A user equipment may use one value for the adjustment when transmitting data to a non-terrestrial network, but then transmit the preamble of a random access procedure according to a preamble-specific time or frequency adjustment based on one or more indications received from the network (e.g., rather than resetting the adjustment to '0'). By using some signaled value for the preamble-specific timing or frequency adjustment rather than resetting the adjustment to “0,” preamble reception performance may be maintained or improved with as many or fewer position measurements for the UE or non-terrestrial network entity.

Closed loop time and frequency corrections in non-terrestrial networks

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured to monitor search spaces on a primary cell and an secondary cell in a carrier aggregation configuration. The UE may monitor the search spaces for control information according to a shared search space monitoring configuration. Based on the shared search space monitoring configuration, the UE may identify that the secondary cell is a scheduling cell and the primary cell is a scheduled cell (e.g., cross-carrier scheduling). The UE may monitor control channel candidates of search spaces on the primary cell and on the secondary cell for downlink control information messages scheduling data transmissions with the primary cell. In some examples, the cross-carrier scheduled communications may be configured according to a scheduling configuration, which may include one or more scheduling constraints.

Techniques for cross-carrier scheduling from a secondary cell to a primary cell

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for identifying a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) independently of a channel quality indicator (CQI) table that is configured at a user equipment (UE). A rate matching parameter may be determined based on one or more of the MCS or CQI table, which may be used for dimensioning a soft buffer that is used to store received transmissions for decoding. The MCS field may be a six-bit field and may indicate an MCS that exceeds a highest MCS associated with the CQI table. The base station may activate a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration at the UE through an activation command, and the UE may verify that SPS is activated based on information in a number of different fields of control information which may include the MCS field.

Rate matching and semi persistent scheduling configuration in wireless communications

Certain aspects of the present disclosure are directed to techniques for hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) codebook design. For example, a user equipment (UE) configured for feedback processing may comprise a memory and a processor configured to receive, from a base station (BS), a first indication of a first feedback process type for providing feedback to the BS for a plurality of feedback processes of the UE. The memory and the processor may also be configured to receive one or more first downlink transmissions from the BS associated with at least one feedback process of the plurality of feedback processes. The memory and the processor may also be configured to transmit feedback or withhold transmission of feedback to the BS regarding decoding of the one or more first downlink transmissions according to the first feedback process type.

Hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) codebook design

A method for wireless communication by a network node includes transmitting, to a group of user equipment (UEs), radio resource control (RRC) signaling to configure a function for enabling and disabling hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback for a set of N instances of a multicast transport block (TB). The method also includes transmitting, to the group of UEs, the set of N instances of the multicast TB. The method further includes transmitting, to the group of UEs, a downlink control information (DCI) message on a group-common physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a group-common radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) configured for the group of UEs. The method also includes receiving, from one or more UEs of the group of UEs, a HARQ feedback message associated with one or more instances of the set of N instances after transmitting all N instances.

Hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback control for multicast communications

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for selecting a first orthogonal cover code (OCC) codeword from an OCC matrix for a transmission occurring during a first transmission time interval based on a first pseudo-random codeword allocator function, such as a first pseudo-random permutation matrix, corresponding to the first transmission time interval; and sending the transmission during the first transmission time interval using the first OCC codeword.

Interference randomization in orthogonal cover codes

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described, in which temporary reference signals may be configured for use in secondary cell (SCell) activation. A user equipment (UE) may perform wireless communications with a first serving cell supported by a base station, and may receive an indication that a SCell is to be activated. As a result of activation of the SCell, the UE may perform one or more measurements on a reference signal of the SCell that is being activated. The one or more measurements may be performed on a temporary reference signal of the SCell that has one or more parameters that are indicated to the UE with the SCell activation information. The one or more parameter may be indicated by downlink control information (DCI), one or more medium access control (MAC) control elements, implicit signaling, or any combinations thereof.

Reference signal configuration for secondary cell activation

A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) includes receiving, from a base station, multicast data via a multicast channel. The method also includes transmitting, to the base station, multicast feedback based on receiving the multicast data. In some examples, the multicast feedback is associated with a group of UEs including the UE. The method further includes receiving, from the base station, a re-transmission of the multicast data on the multicast channel or a unicast channel based on one or more of a number of UEs served by the base station, a number of UEs from the group of UEs providing the multicast feedback, or a radio channel condition.

Multicast radio bearer (MRB) with radio link control (RLC) re-transmission

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may measure a reference signal received power (RSRP) associated with a reference signal (RS) broadcast by a network. The UE may further measure a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) using a plurality of resource elements (REs) that do not include the RS and excluding REs that do include the RS. Accordingly, the UE may determine a reference signal received quality (RSRQ) associated with the RS based at least in part on the RSRP and the RSSI. Numerous other aspects are described.

Aspects described herein relate to receiving an update value for a timing advance of a satellite link between the UE and a base station, computing, based on the update value for the timing advance, a portion of a timing difference between the update value and a previous value for the timing advance of the satellite link that is corrected by closed loop timing advance control from the base station, computing, based at least in part on computing the portion, a total value for the timing advance of the satellite link, and applying, at the UE and based at least in part on the total value for the timing advance of the satellite link and the closed loop timing advance control, an applied timing advance for communicating with the base station.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from an entity of a non-terrestrial network (NTN), a system information block (SIB) that indicates information relating to one or more NTN SIBs that are to include at least one of ephemeris information or feeder link timing advance information. The UE may receive, from the entity of the NTN, the one or more NTN SIBs based at least in part on the information. Numerous other aspects are described.

Broadcasting of a non-terrestrial network system information block

A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) includes modulating a symbol stream onto at least one subcarrier to generate an uplink signal in a frequency domain for transmitting to a receiver in a non-terrestrial network. The method also includes applying an amount of phase rotation to the at least one subcarrier in the frequency domain. The method further includes transforming the uplink signal from the frequency domain into a time domain uplink signal. The method includes transmitting the time domain uplink signal to the receiver, after applying the phase rotation to the at least one subcarrier.

Compensation of uplink timing errors for non-terrestrial networks

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a group discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration. The UE may receive, based on the group DRX configuration, a notification communication indicative of group handover information associated with a group of UEs that includes the UE. The UE may perform, based on the group handover information, a group handover operation between a source cell and a target cell. Numerous other aspects are described.

Group handover configurations

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A method at a user equipment (UE) includes receiving signaling that indicates a carrier aggregation (CA) configuration (having carriers configured for UL and downlink (DL) data transmissions) and an auxiliary uplink (UL) configuration (having carriers configured for UL reference signal transmissions). The method also includes receiving a resource assignment on a DL carrier of the CA configuration, and transmitting an aperiodic sounding reference signal (A-SRS) using the one or more carriers of the auxiliary UL configuration based at least in part on the received resource assignment. Another method is performed by a UE having a CA configuration and an A-SRS configuration, including receiving a resource assignment on a DL carrier in the CA configuration, detecting a trigger for transmitting an A-SRS, determining UL resources of the A-SRS configuration for transmitting the A-SRS, and transmitting the A-SRS on the determined UL resources.

In one aspect, a method includes receiving, from a base station (BS), a first configuration for scheduling in a first cell having a first subcarrier spacing (SCS), wherein the first configuration is associated with a first search space in the first cell. The method further includes receiving, from the BS, a second configuration for scheduling in the first cell, wherein the second configuration is associated with a second search space in a second cell, and wherein the second cell is associated with a different second SCS. The method further includes determining a number of blind detections (BDs) based on at least one of the first SCS or the second SCS, and monitoring, based on the number of BDs, for downlink control information (DCI) in the first and second search spaces.
