Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for multi-carrier on-off keying communications. A method for wireless communications by an apparatus includes receiving a signal comprising multiple carrier frequencies modulated with on-off keying; decoding the signal based at least in part on a delta frequency being associated with a first carrier frequency and a second carrier frequency among the multiple carrier frequencies; and recovering data from the decoded signal.

Multi-carrier on-off keying communications

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In a wireless communications system, a user equipment (UE) may receive a first downlink control message indicating a set of parameters for a scheduling request for the UE. The UE may then receive on a receive beam a second downlink control message, which may be a layer 1 signal, and determine uplink resources for the scheduling request and a transmission configuration indicator state for the scheduling request. The UE may transmit, to the base station, the scheduling request using the uplink resources.

Dynamic reconfiguration of uplink control channel resources for a scheduling request

Aspects of methods, computer-readable mediums, and apparatuses are provided for a user equipment (UE) or a base station. The UE receives, from a base station, an indication to transmit a scheduling request (SR). The UE receives a downlink transmission triggering hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback in one or more physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources. The UE transmits the SR to the base station in the one or more PUCCH resources for the HARQ feedback. The base station transmits, to a UE, an indication to transmit an SR. The base station transmits a downlink transmission triggering HARQ feedback in one or more PUCCH resources. The base station receives the SR from the UE in the one or more PUCCH resources.

Network initiated polling for uplink scheduling request

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration associated with a plurality of search spaces, wherein the plurality of search spaces are distributed across a plurality of slots. The UE may drop all search spaces of an identified slot based at least in part on one or more overbooking conditions. The UE may monitor a remainder of the plurality of search spaces other than the dropped search spaces. Numerous other aspects are described.

Slot level overbooking for multi-slot physical downlink control channel monitoring

A UE receives, from a base station, a single downlink control information (DCI) indicating a multiple PDSCH grant for at least a first PDSCH in a first slot and a second PDSCH in a second slot. The UE receives the first PDSCH in a first set of symbols in the first slot and receives the second PDSCH in a second set of symbols in the second slot. A UE receives, from a base station, a single DCI indicating a multiple PUSCH grant for at least a first PUSCH in a first slot and a second PUSCH in a second slot. The UE transmits the first PUSCH in a first set of symbols in the first slot and transmits the second PUSCH in a second set of symbols in the second slot.

Multi-PDSCH or multi-PUSCH grant for non-contiguous resources on multiple slots

A method for wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving, from a network node, a message indicating a set of multi-slot monitoring configurations supported by a base station based on a minimum monitoring occasion periodicity associated with a search space being greater than or equal to one slot. The method also includes transmitting, to the network node, a selection message indicating selection of a single multi-slot monitoring configuration from the set of multi-slot monitoring configurations. The method still further includes monitoring the search space for a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmission in a plurality of non-consecutive monitoring occasion groups, each monitoring occasion group comprising a plurality of non-consecutive monitoring occasions based on the single multi-slot monitoring configuration.

Non-consecutive slot monitoring configuration for early access

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit capability information indicating a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring capability, wherein the PDCCH monitoring capability indicates a minimum length for a group of slots and a maximum number of consecutive slots including at least one search space within the group of slots. The UE may receive a search space set configuration associated with a plurality of search spaces, wherein the search space set configuration is based at least in part on a slot group length that is greater than or equal to the minimum length. The UE may monitor for control information based at least in part on the search space set configuration. Numerous other aspects are described.

Flexible slot group for multiple slot control channel monitoring

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for frequency tracking and timing tracking using wideband reference signals (RSs). A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes monitoring for a wideband RS from a network entity when one or more conditions are met, the wideband RS occupying a wider band of frequency resources than a tracking reference signal (TRS) transmitted by the network entity; and performing at least one of frequency tracking or timing tracking based on the monitoring.

Frequency tracking and timing tracking using wideband reference signal(s)

In some designs, UE receives an active BWP SCS value of an active BWP SCS that is 120 kHz or higher, and a reference SCS value of a reference SCS that is the same or lower than the active BWP SCS, and determines a number of consecutive slots in the active BWP associated with the same SFI based on the active BWP SCS value and the reference SCS value. UE and BS communicate on slot(s) of the active BWP based on the active BWP SCS value and the reference SCS value. In some designs, a multi-slot SFI configuration is defined for multiple SFIs.

Slot format indicator configurations

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A wireless device such as a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a scheduling device such as a base station, control signaling which indicates a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration scheduling a burst of multiple downlink shared channel transmission opportunities during an SPS interval. Based on receiving the SPS configuration, the UE may receive downlink signaling from the base station in a downlink shared channel transmission opportunity of the SPS interval. In some other aspects, a UE may receive control signaling which indicates a configured grant (CG) that schedules a burst of multiple uplink shared channel transmission opportunities during a CG timing interval. Based on receiving the CG, the UE may transmit uplink signaling to the base station in an uplink shared channel transmission opportunity indicated by the CG.

Semi-persistent scheduling and configured grants configuring bursts of multiple transmission opportunities

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a grant that schedules multiple downlink communications, wherein the grant includes multiple start and length indicator values (SLIVs) that indicate respective time domain resource allocations (TDRAs) for the multiple downlink communications and a feedback timing indicator that indicates timing of uplink feedback communications for the multiple downlink communications. The UE may determine that there is a conflict between a timing of a first uplink feedback communication for a first downlink communication of the multiple downlink communications and a TDRA for a second downlink communication of the multiple downlink communications. The UE may adjust at least one of the TDRA for the second downlink communication or the timing of the first uplink feedback communication. Numerous other aspects are provided.
