A first device may communicate an SL NC TB with a second device. At least one of the first device and the second device may be a UE. The first device may transmit, to a network entity, a first message having a first location information that indicates a movement of the UE from a first zone to a second zone. The first message may have a first location information associated with the UE. The UE may be in SL communication with a first encoder in the first zone. The network entity may obtain, from the first device, the first message. The network entity may initialize an NC handover of the UE to a second encoder of the second zone in response to the first location information indicating a movement of the UE from the first zone to the second zone.

Mode 1 network entity initiated network coding handover

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for techniques for signaling a transport block format of a retransmitted transport block of a slot aggregated packet. In response to receiving a negative acknowledgment (NACK) from a second user equipment (UE) for a transport block of a slot aggregated packet, a first UE may transmit a sidelink control information (SCI) message to the second UE indicating a transport block format for a retransmission of the transport block. Accordingly, the second UE may accurately determine a size and format of the retransmitted transport block. The first UE may retransmit the transport block in accordance with the indicated transport block format, and the second UE may decode the retransmitted transport block in accordance with the indicated format of the retransmitted transport block.

Transport block size determination for sidelink slot aggregation

Apparatus, methods, and computer program products for selecting an encoder for network coding are provided. An example method may include receiving one or more encoder information messages from a set of network coding devices, the one or more encoder information messages being associated with the set of network coding devices. The example method may further include transmitting a selection indication to at least one selected network coding device of the set of network coding devices, the selection indication indicating a selection of the at least one selected network coding device as an encoder for encoding at least one transport block (TB).

Encoder selection for distributed network coding

Apparatus, methods, and computer program products for selecting an encoder for network coding are provided. An example method may include transmitting a report request for reporting one or more conditions to one or more network coding devices, the one or more conditions being associated with the one or more network coding devices. The example method may further include receiving a condition report reporting the one or more conditions from the one or more network coding devices based on the report request. The example method may further include transmitting a selection indication to a selected network coding device of the one or more network coding devices, the selection indication indicating a selection of the selected network coding device as an encoder for encoding a transport block (TB).
