Methods, systems, and devices for method for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive first control signaling indicating a first set of communication occasions for periodic transmission or periodic reception in accordance with a first periodicity and may receive second control signaling indicating a second set of communication occasions that differs in timing from the first set of communication occasions. The UE may shift a first occasion of the first set of communication occasions to align the first occasion of the first set of communication occasions within a threshold time period from a first occasion of the second set of communication occasions. The UE may then communicate on the first occasion of the second set of communication occasions and on the first occasion of the first set of communication occasions.

Techniques for aligning communications

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 configuration that indicates one or more measurement objects, wherein a measurement object of the one or more measurement objects indicates a synchronization signal block (SSB) frequency of a configured bandwidth part (BWP). The UE may determine, from the one or more measurement objects, a serving cell measurement object based at least in part on an active BWP of the UE, wherein the serving cell measurement object is associated with an SSB frequency in the active BWP. Numerous other aspects are described.

Serving cell measurement objects associated with active bandwidth parts

Aspects described herein relate to receiving control information activating periodic resources defined in a configuration for wireless communication, wherein the control information indicates resources for transmitting a control information response, and transmitting, to the second node and based on one or more power-related parameters of the first node, the control information response indicating a modification for one or more parameters related to the periodic resources. Other aspects relate to transmitting the control information and receiving the control information response.

Techniques for control information parameter modification in wireless communications

Example implementations include a method, apparatus and computer-readable medium of wireless communication by a user equipment, comprising receiving at least one configuration associated with a plurality of connected mode discontinuous reception (C-DRX) cycles, wherein a first C-DRX cycle of the plurality of C-DRX cycles is associated with a set of user equipment (UE) operations and a second C-DRX cycle of the plurality of C-DRX cycles is associated with a subset of UE operations of the set of UE operations. The implementations further include transmitting data based on performance of one or more UE operations of the subset of UE operations during the second C-DRX cycle.

Customizable connected mode discontinuous reception

In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) determines a transmission gap adjustment (TGA) for a first message (msgA) of a 2 step random access channel (RACH) procedure based on measurement of a reference signal transmitted by a base station as well as the radio resource configuration (RRC) configurations for msgA. In other aspects, a base station transmits a system information block (SIB) or RRC signaling that indicates at least one possible configuration of the TGA, and UEs determine the TGA depending on RRC state. Connected mode UEs having a timing alignment (TA) timer running may determine the TGA based on a previous TA. UEs in other RRC modes determine the TGA based on the possible configuration transmitted in the SIB or RRC signaling. Advantageously, 2 step RACH UEs are able to communicate with the base station without the closed loop TA information provided by a 4 step RACH.

Open loop timing control for 2-step RACH

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications systems may support enhanced scheduling request configurations. A user equipment (UE) may obtain, at a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer of the UE, information associated with a data packet for transmission by the UE. The UE may transmit a scheduling request that indicates information regarding an elapsed time period since the information associated with the data packet was obtained at the PDCP layer of the UE, or whether the data packet is a final packet of a set of data packets, or both. A network entity may receive the scheduling request and determine scheduling information for uplink communications by the UE based on the information regarding the elapsed time period, or whether the data packet is the final data packet, or both. The network entity may transmit the scheduling information to the UE.

Enhanced scheduling request configurations for wireless communications

Techniques described provide dependent procedure operation configured for avoiding or mitigating one or more aspect of the impact on the dependent procedure of cancelling an uplink transmission. One or more attributes (e.g., a transmission indication attribute) associated with a cancelled uplink transmission may be designated for dependent procedure operation, such as for indicating whether the cancelled uplink transmission is considered either as having been transmitted or not having been transmitted. The one or more attributes associated with a cancelled uplink transmission designated for dependent procedure operation may be based upon whether the cancelling the first uplink transmission is a fast cancellation or is a slow cancellation. The designation of a transmission indication attribute for dependent procedure operation may correspond to the dependent procedure and/or its operation. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
