Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine a fixed frame period (FFP) configured for the UE in a frame based equipment mode. The FFP configured for the UE includes one or more idle periods and a channel occupancy time that is offset from an FFP configured for a base station communicating with the UE over an unlicensed channel. The UE may refrain from transmitting over the unlicensed channel during the one or more idle periods. The one or more idle periods may at least partially overlap with a time period in which the base station refrains from transmitting over the unlicensed channel. Numerous other aspects are provided.

User equipment fixed frame period for frame based equipment mode in unlicensed spectrum

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a remote radio head (RRH), a protocol configuration, wherein the protocol configuration configures the RRH to perform one or more MAC protocol layer functions of the UE. The UE may perform a communication, wherein one or more higher layer functions associated with the communication are performed by the UE, wherein the one or more higher layer functions are associated with a higher layer than the MAC protocol layer. Numerous other aspects are described.

Techniques for remote radio head configuration for user equipment

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for a user equipment (UE) entering a dormant state with respect to a secondary cell group (SCG) of a node network (SN) having a primary serving cell (PSCell). In one aspect, the UE may maintain a parameter set for at least the PSCell while the UE is in the dormant state with respect to the SCG. For example, the UE may receive a parameter change message from either the SN or a master network (MN) and transmit a parameter change acknowledgment to either the SN or the MN. The parameter change message may be transmitted as one or both of a downlink control information (DCI) or media access control (MAC) control element (CE). The UE may transmit physical layer measurements to the SN based on the parameter set.

Aspects presented herein may improve the latency and efficiency of L1/L2 inter-cell mobility. In one aspect, a UE receives a configuration for a set of cells associated with a mobility of the UE, where the set of cells includes an SpCell and an SCell, where the set of cells includes a first subset of activated cells and a second subset of deactivated cells, and where at least one first cell of the set of cells is a reference cell and one or more second cells of the set of cells are associated with the reference cell. The UE receives an indication of an updated configuration for the set of cells based on a movement of the UE, where the indication of the updated configuration is received from the network entity, where the updated configuration includes at least one new cell in the set of cells.

Delta signaling of cell configuration for inter-cell mobility

Techniques are described for wireless communication. An orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) configuration of an uplink channel is identified for communications in an unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band. An OFDMA waveform is generated based on the identified OFDMA configuration. The OFDMA waveform is communicated in a signal in the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band. A virtual cell identifier of a first base station may be associated with transmissions between the first base station and a first user equipment (UE). A set of common resource blocks may be identified for transmission of a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) between the first base station and the first UE. A configuration of an uplink channel may be dynamically selected for uplink communications in an unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band. A waveform may be generated based on the selected configuration. The waveform may be communicated in a signal in the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band.

Techniques for configuring uplink channels in unlicensed radio frequency spectrum bands

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a UE may receive an indication that a transmission of first data is to be modified and that second data is to be transmitted in place of a portion of the transmission of the first data; and identify a single time at which the transmission of the first data is to be canceled and transmission of the second data can begin, based at least in part on capabilities of the UE. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Intra-user equipment prioritization of transmissions

A communication configuration is selected based on the bandwidth used by a wireless communication device during a random access procedure (e.g., on an unlicensed band). In some scenarios, the maximum transmit power that the wireless communication device can use may be significantly restricted (e.g., by a regulation). In some cases (e.g., when the wireless communication device is near a center of a cell), the wireless communication device may transmit the random access information using a default bandwidth. In other cases (e.g., when the wireless communication device is near a cell edge), the wireless communication device may transmit the random access information using a wider bandwidth (e.g., to increase the coverage of the transmission). In some aspects, the maximum bandwidth used for the random access procedure may be used to select at least one communication configuration that is used for a subsequent communication (e.g., data or control signaling).

Communication configuration based on random access bandwidth

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for interference-aware beam failure detection procedures. One or more beam failure parameters may be adjusted based on a likelihood of temporary interference being present for a communications beam. The beam failure parameters may include beam failure indication (BFI) counts or count thresholds that may be adjusted based on a likelihood of BFIs being the result of temporary interference. Additionally or alternatively, one or more measurement thresholds that trigger a BFI may be adjusted based on a likelihood of a presence of temporary interference.

Techniques for interference-based beam failure detection

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques that may be used to help enable low latency communications between a user equipment (UE) and a base station (BS) using quick uplink channels that enable a reduced transmission time interval (TTI). An example method generally includes identifying a plurality of slots in a subframe, receiving a resource configuration for an uplink channel, wherein the resource configuration is associated with a first slot of the plurality of slots, determining a resource for transmitting the uplink channel in a second slot of the plurality of slots, wherein the resource is determined based on the resource configuration associated with the first slot of the plurality of slots, and transmitting the uplink channel in the second slot using the determined resource.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described to support inclusion of layer 1 (L1) or layer 2 (L2) cell mobility information within a layer 3 (L3) handover command. A base station may transmit, to the UE, signaling indicating for the UE to perform a measurement on a first set of cells. The UE may perform the measurement on the first set of cells and may transmit, to the base station, an indication associated with the measurement on the first set of cells. In response to the indication, the base station may transmit, to the UE, an L3 handover command, where the L3 handover command may include L1 or L2 cell mobility information, such as an indication of a second set of cells that the UE is to use for L1 or L2 cell mobility after completing the L3 handover command.

Techniques for providing cell mobility information during handover

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may receive at least one sidelink communication on a sidelink, wherein the at least one sidelink communication includes at least one of a grant, data received on a resource identified by a grant, a multi-stage grant, a multi-packet grant, or a relaying communication; and transmit, on the sidelink or an uplink, a feedback message including a plurality of acknowledgements in connection with receiving the at least one sidelink communication. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Sidelink feedback format

A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving an indication of a mobility configured cell set having a number of cells. The method also includes receiving signaling to release a selected cell from the mobility configured cell set. The method further includes releasing the selected cell from the mobility configured cell set in response to receiving the signaling. In some aspects, releasing the selected cell comprises removing the selected cell from a carrier aggregation configuration. In other aspects, releasing the selected cell comprises removing a mobility configuration for the selected cell.

Layer one/layer two (L1/L2) signaling to release cells configured for L1/L2 inter-cell mobility

Wireless communications systems and methods related to accessing a channel based on an interference condition in a wireless communication network are provided. For example, a method of wireless communication performed by a wireless communications device may include receiving, from a second wireless communication device, one or more signals associated with a beam parameter, determining, at each of a plurality of locations, a signal measurement for at least one received signal of the one or more received signals, and determining, based at least in part on a cumulative distribution of the signal measurements at the plurality of locations and a reference probability distribution, whether the second wireless communication device satisfies an interference condition. Other features are also claimed and described.
