This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for early termination of decoding attempts, including decoding attempts associated with physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates that are encoded using a rateless code. In some aspects, a transmitting device may encode a message using a rateless code associated with a cumulative encoding of various portions of the message, and using a device identifier or group identifier as an input to the encoding. Similarly, a receiving device may receive an encoded signal over candidate resources and may attempt to decode the signal in accordance with the rateless code and using a device identifier or a group identifier as an input to the decoding. As such, intended or non-intended receiving device may be able to evaluate whether to proceed with a decoding attempt or to terminate a decoding attempt at a relatively early stage.

Early termination of blind decoding with rateless coding

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for non-linearity estimation techniques for digital post distortion (DPoD) in a wireless system. In some aspects, a first wireless device may estimate a power amplifier (PA) non-linearity associated with a second wireless device using select signaling from the second wireless device. For example, the first wireless device may use a received signal to estimate the PA non-linearity if a dynamic power range associated with the signal triggers the estimation of the PA non-linearity (such as if the dynamic power range associated with the signal satisfies, or is expected to satisfy, a threshold dynamic power range). If the dynamic power range of the signal triggers the estimation of the PA non-linearity, the first wireless device may introduce DPoD to signaling received from the second wireless device in accordance with the estimation of the PA non-linearity.

Non-linearity estimation techniques for digital post distortion (DPoD) in a wireless system

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A network entity may determine a number of resources for next transmissions following a first transmission. For example, a user equipment (UE) may calculate an average mutual information (MI) of a single log likelihood ratio (LLR) and an MI for each code block. The UE may transmit feedback indicating a quantity of resources to achieve a target MI based on the calculated averages. A wireless device may monitor a feedback buffer utilization associated with the UE. A network entity may retransmit existing code blocks or output a transmission using repetition based on the monitoring and utilization thresholds. The network entity may indicate to the UE a latency level code block attribute and increase a quantity of resources for following retransmissions by a boosting factor based on the latency level and a threshold.

Techniques for resource reservation for a retransmission

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network entity, a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) configuration indicating an intra-slot DMRS pattern. The UE may receive, from the network entity, an indication of an inter-slot DMRS pattern. The UE may communicate, with the network entity, a message that is associated with a time domain resource allocation that includes multiple slots, the message including one or more DMRSs in accordance with the intra-slot DMRS pattern and the inter-slot DMRS pattern. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A communications device may transmit a first signal. The first signal may be transmitted from a first antenna array of the communications device through a lens of the communications device in a direction. An energy of a portion of the first signal may be below a threshold based on a position of a second antenna array of the communications device. The portion of the first signal may correspond to a portion of a reflection of the first signal that overlaps with the position of the second antenna array. The communications device may concurrently receive, at the second antenna array, a second signal originating from another direction, where the second signal may be focused in the direction of the second antenna array based on the lens.

Lens communication with multiple antenna arrays

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a receiving device may receive a communication that includes at least one pilot symbol, the at least one pilot symbol including pilot signaling on a first set of one or more subcarriers and peak-to-average-power-ratio (PAPR) signaling on a second set of one or more subcarriers. The receiving device may communicate based at least in part on the pilot signaling. Numerous other aspects are described.

Pilot symbols having pilot signaling and peak-to-average-power-ratio signaling

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may obtain synchronization with a primary cell of a wireless network. The wireless communication device may receive an indication to activate a secondary cell of the wireless network. The wireless communication device may receive a reference signal (RS) of the secondary cell. The wireless communication device may obtain synchronization with the secondary cell based at least in part on an offset between the RS of the secondary cell and a reference time of the primary cell, the reference time based at least in part on the synchronization with the primary cell. The wireless communication device may communicate via the secondary cell based at least in part on the synchronization with the secondary cell. Numerous other aspects are described.

Secondary cell synchronization

A network node may identify a single first packet size associated with a plurality of packets. The network node may transmit the plurality of packets to a UE based on a MIRS. Each packet in the plurality of packets may be associated with the single first packet size. The UE may decode the plurality of packets based on the MIRS. Each packet in the plurality of packets may include a first number of systematic bits and a second number of parity bits. The first number of systematic bits may be associated with a first cyclic buffer at the network node. The second number of parity bits may be associated with a second cyclic buffer at the network node.

MIRS for unlicensed bands

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for network assisted selection of UE antenna ports for uplink transmissions. A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) includes transmitting, to a network entity, a plurality of sounding reference signals over a plurality of UE antenna ports. The method further includes receiving, from the network entity, an indication of one or more antenna port indexes associated with one or more preferred antenna ports for uplink transmissions, and transmitting UE uplink transmissions to the network entity using one or more selected antenna ports of the one or more indicated preferred antenna ports.

Network assisted uplink transmission antenna ports selection

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for dynamically adapting a baseband resource envelope (e.g., baseband resources) allocated to a network entity. A virtual radio access network (VRAN) manager (e.g., a host platform for a VRAN) may perform baseband pooling to allocate a baseband resource envelope to a network entity for signal processing at the network entity. The network entity may perform measurements indicating the channel conditions associated with communicating with one or more user equipment (UEs), and the network entity may report the measurements to the VRAN manager. The VRAN manager may then adapt a baseband resource envelope allocated to the network entity based on the measurements to improve the utilization of processing resources.

Adaptive processing envelope based on channel conditions

A lens antenna array system for wireless communication is provided that includes a transmitter having a first lens and a receiver having a second lens. The transmitter transmits a first plurality of RF signals across a plurality of near-field communication links to the receiver. Based upon a first signal quality determination at the receiver, the transmitter adjusts a plurality of gains to increase a signal quality for a second plurality of RF signals transmitted across the plurality of near-field communication links.

Lens antenna array system with power optimization for improved signal quality

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit one or more messages that indicate a capability of the UE to support the reception of demodulation reference signals (DMRS) and time drift reference signals (TDRS) according to one or more signaling patterns configured by the network. The UE may then receive one or more control messages that indicate a first signaling pattern for one or more DMRSs and a second signaling pattern for one or more TDRSs, where the first signaling pattern corresponds to or is based on the second signaling pattern. The UE may receive a downlink shared channel multiplexed with the one or more DMRSs according to the first signaling pattern and may receive the downlink shared channel multiplexed with the one or more TDRSs according to the second signaling pattern.

Signaling patterns for time drift reference signals

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may report an initial capability to maintain latency conditions and a number of supported beams (e.g., a threshold number of beams the UE can support for relaying downlink communications such as synchronization signal blocks (SSBs)). A network entity may then transmit multiple SSBs directly to the repeater (e.g., on the same beam). The repeater may relay the SSBs across multiple beams to provide service to a coverage area. After relaying signaling between served UEs and the network entity, the repeater may transmit a report requesting a specific (e.g., improved or more accurate) number of beams (e.g., more beams or fewer beams than the number of SSBs initially provided). Upon receiving an updated configuration of a number of beams, the repeater may receive more SSBs on a single beam, and relay SSBs on the updated number of beams.

Repeater beam requests for transparent beam management

A UE of a wireless communication network first receives a modulation and coding scheme index Ifor demodulating a physical layer data channel of the network. The UE then demodulates the physical layer data channel with a non-square quadrature amplitude modulation (NS-QAM) having a modulation order and code rate corresponding to a spectral efficiency (SPEFF) substantially equal to a SPEFF of a square QAM (S-QAM) SPEFF indicted by the I, where the NS-QAM has an effective channel code rate no larger than the code rate for which the UE may skip decoding a transport block in an initial received transmission.

Non-square quadrature amplitude modulation in wireless communication systems

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit a set of code blocks to multiple user equipments (UEs). The base station may receive feedback pertaining to reception of each of the set of code blocks at each of the multiple UEs. The base station may generate, based on the feedback, a retransmission message that includes encoded data representative of a subset of code blocks of the set of code blocks and additional redundancy with respect to the subset of code blocks. The multiple UEs may receive the retransmission message and extract a portion corresponding the set of code blocks that were previously unsuccessfully decoded. The UEs may combine the portion of the set of code blocks with the unsuccessfully decoded code blocks to create an updated combined versions of the code blocks. The UEs may decode the combined versions of the code blocks.
