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

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for distance-based channel occupancy time (COT) sharing. In one aspect, a first device, such as a user equipment (UE), may determine an approximate distance between itself and a second device. The first device may receive a COT sharing configuration including a set of COT sharing parameters for sharing a COT of the communications link with the second device based on the distance between the two devices. The first device may determine conditions for sharing the COT based on the COT sharing configuration and the approximate distance between the two devices. Additionally, or alternatively, the first device may determine conditions for sharing the COT based on the COT sharing configuration and a power metric of communications between the two devices.

Distance-based channel occupancy time (COT) sharing

Wireless communications systems and methods related to communicating ACK/NACK feedbacks for multi-user and unicast physical down-link shared channel (PDSCH) communications are provided. A UE may receive a multi-user PDSCH communication including a first transport block (TB) for the UE and may receive a unicast PDSCH communication including a second TB for the UE. The UE may determine a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) codebook for the first TB associated with the multi-user PDSCH communication and the second TB associated with the unicast PDSCH communication. The UE may transmit a first acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgment (ACK/NACK) feedback for the first TB and a second ACK/NACK feedback for the second TB based on the determined HARQ codebook.

Dynamic hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) codebook for multi-user packet (MUP) and/or unicast communications

Aspects of the disclosure relate to a user equipment (UE) for establishing a sidelink communication channel and receive mapped channel state information-reference signals (CSI-RS) over a plurality of PSSCH resource blocks. The mapped CSI-RS may be interlaced with resource elements in at least a portion of the plurality of PSSCH resource blocks. The CSI-RS received over the plurality of PSSCH blocks is then processed to determine a channel quality of the sidelink channel from the portion of the plurality of PSSCH resource blocks including the mapped CSI-RS.

Interlaced sidelink data for communication

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may attempt, for up to a threshold quantity of transmission opportunities of a plurality of transmission opportunities of a channel occupancy time in a transmission opportunity aggregation deployment, a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure; and selectively transmit, based at least in part on the LBT procedure being successful within the threshold quantity of transmission opportunities, one or more repetitions of an uplink transmission in one or more remaining transmission opportunities of the plurality of transmission opportunities, or determine, based at least in part on the LBT procedure not being successful within the threshold quantity of transmission opportunities, that a failure of the uplink transmission has occurred. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Contiguous uplink transmission in contention-based access systems

A base station (BS) may cancel an uplink transmission that was previously scheduled for a user equipment (UE). For example, after scheduling a first UE for an uplink transmission on a particular resource, a BS may elect to schedule a second UE with higher priority traffic on at least a portion of that same resource. In this case, the BS may send an uplink cancelation indication (UL CI) to instruct the first UE to cancel its transmission. In some examples, for uplink transmissions on unlicensed radio frequency spectrum where an interlace structure and resource block (RB) sets are used for frequency-domain resource allocation, an UL CI may indicate interlace and/or RB set parameters for the frequency domain

Uplink cancelation indication

This disclosure provides systems and methods, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for managing control channel monitoring. In an aspect, a mobile device may receive a wakeup signal including an indication of one or more groups of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) search space sets. The mobile device may determine one or more PDCCH monitoring times based on the indication of the one or more groups of PDCCH search space sets. The mobile device may monitor the PDCCH during the determined one or more PDCCH monitoring times. In another aspect, a network element may configure two or more groups of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) search space sets among the plurality of mobile devices and transmit a wakeup signal indicating to the plurality of mobile devices which of the two groups of PDCCH search space sets to which each mobile device of the plurality of mobile devices belongs.

Managing control channel monitoring

Aspects of the present disclosure provide for managing random access channel (RACH) procedures in wireless communication systems. In some examples, a UE includes a processor, a transceiver communicatively coupled to the processor and configured to communicate with a scheduling entity in the wireless communication network, and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor. The processor is configured to receive a signal from a base station at the beginning of a fixed frame period during a two-step random access procedure, determine whether a resource for a transmission occasion overlaps one or more symbols located at an edge of the fixed frame period, and discard the resource for the transmission occasion at the UE when the resource overlaps the one or more symbols located at the edge of the fixed frame period.

PUSCH validation for frame-based equipment

Aspects relate to mechanisms for a wireless communication device to configure and indicate sidelink control information (SCI) for sidelink communication within a slot over a sidelink channel. The SCI can include first stage SCI (SCI-1), second stage SCI (SCI-2), and third stage SCI (SCI-3). The SCI-1 may be transmitted within a control region of the slot, whereas the SCI-2 and the SCI-3 may be transmitted within a data region of the slot. The SCI-2 may include information for decoding SCI-3, including, for example, a resource size, modulation order, and rate-matching behavior of the SCI-3. The sidelink communication can further include sidelink data traffic that may be communicated in the data region of the slot.

Third stage sidelink control information design

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for sending, from an upper layer at a transmitting device to a lower layer at the transmitting device, an indication by which the lower layer determines that a packet is to be transmitted as either an initial transmission or as a retransmission. The lower layer at the transmitting device may then determine a transmission process for transmitting the packet based on the indication, and the transmitting device may transmit the packet in accordance with the transmission process. Because the lower layer may identify whether the packet is to be transmitted as either the initial transmission or the retransmission, the lower layer may adapt the transmission process to improve the chances that the packet is received by a receiving device or to limit overhead.

Assistance signaling for radio link control retransmissions

Wireless communications systems and methods related to wireless communications in a system are provided. A first wireless communication device may communicate with a second wireless communication device in a listen-before-talk (LBT) bandwidth of a set of LBT bandwidths, downlink control information (DCI). The DCI may indicate acquisition of a channel occupancy time (COT) in a fixed frame period (FFP) across the set of LBT bandwidths and/or a starting point of the FFP in the respective LBT bandwidth. The first wireless communication device may communicate with the second wireless communication device, a communication in at least one LBT bandwidth of the set of LBT bandwidths during the respective COT.

Downlink control information (DCI) transmission in multiple listen-before-talk (LBT) bandwidths

Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for handling scenarios where a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetition is scheduled as a single symbol. According to certain aspects, a user equipment (UE) is configured to detect that a nominal physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetition is to be segmented into one or more actual PUSCH repetitions that include a single symbol actual PUSCH repetition and take one or more actions to handle a symbol length gap in transmission due to the single symbol actual PUSCH repetition.

Handling of orphan symbols in shared spectrum

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to signaling in frame-based equipment (FBE) mode for channel occupancy time (COT) sharing. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, in association with an FBE mode, a message associated with a designation of the UE for either COT sharing or non-COT sharing. The UE may detect whether there is an initial signal at a boundary of a time frame for COT and sleep, monitor, or communicate during the time frame, based at least in part on the designation and the detecting. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Signaling for channel occupancy time sharing in frame based equipment mode

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may determine that that the first UE is scheduled to transmit a control signal and a synchronization signal associated with a synchronization signal block. The first UE may transmit, to a second UE during a first set of symbols within a time period, the control signal associated with a sidelink communication. In some examples, the first UE may transmit, to the second UE during a symbol subsequent to the first set of symbols, the synchronization signal associated with the synchronization signal block, and may communicate with the second UE according to the transmitted control signal and the transmitted synchronization signal.
