Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first orbital angular momentum (OAM) node may transmit a boresight direction alignment reference signal to a second OAM node. The first OAM node may receive, from the second OAM node, a boresight direction alignment status report that indicates boresight direction alignment information based at least in part on the boresight direction alignment reference signal. Numerous other aspects are described.

Boresight direction alignment based on reference signal transmission and reception

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for inter-cell measurement and reporting. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes sending, to a base station (BS), an indication of one or more capabilities of the UE for inter-cell signal measurements, reporting of the inter-cell signal measurements, or both. The UE may perform inter-cell signal measurement and reporting based on the one or more capabilities.

Inter-cell measurement and reporting for beam management

Techniques are provided in which a target UE can be provided with a processing window (PW) configuration that defines a PW during which the target UE may measure one or more RS resources. The PW optionally may allow the target UE to transmit an uplink (UL) RS. The PW configuration may be provided to the target UE by a serving base station of the target UE in response to a request for the PW configuration by the target UE or a location server. The request may include information regarding an RS configuration provided to the target UE.

Processing window design for positioning

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a second UE, an indication of at least one sidelink unified transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state, wherein the at least one sidelink unified TCI state includes at least one of: a joint forward link and reverse link TCI state, a separate forward link TCI state, or a separate reverse link TCI state. The first UE may communicate with the second UE on at least one of the forward link or the reverse link based at least in part on the indication of the sidelink unified TCI state. Numerous other aspects are described.

Sidelink unified transmission configuration indicator state

A wireless communication device can activate a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode having first inactive and active time periods allowing a user equipment (UE) to communicate sidelink control signals to another UE. The UE may receive a message from the another UE indicating an upcoming second active time period and second active time period duration for transmitting the sidelink control signals. The UE may transmit the sidelink control signals to the another UE during the second active time period duration after receiving the message from the another UE. Other aspects, features, and embodiments are also claimed and described.

Managing discontinuous reception in sidelink relay

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network node, scheduling information that indicates resource allocations for transmitting multiple sidelink transport blocks (TBs) and one or more receiving UEs associated with the multiple sidelink TBs. The UE may transmit one or more sidelink TBs of the multiple sidelink TBs based at least in part on the resource allocations and the one or more receiving UEs indicated in the scheduling information. Numerous other aspects are described.

Multi-transport block sidelink scheduling

Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory media for providing signaling consideration for wireless positioning with disjoint bandwidth segments. For instance, one or more indications of a preferred bandwidth configuration can be transmitted by a user equipment. Based on the one or more indications, the user equipment can receive a positioning configuration that indicates disjoint bandwidth segments containing a positioning reference signal based on the preferred bandwidth configuration. In response, the user equipment can then determine one or more positioning measurements based on the positioning reference signal in the disjoint bandwidth segments.

Signaling consideration for new radio positioning with disjoint bandwidth segments

Some aspects provide a method for wireless communication by a first wireless device. The method generally includes transmitting control information regarding at least one of scheduling or configuration of a channel state information (CSI) report to be transmitted by the first wireless device. The method generally includes generating the CSI report based on one or more CSI reference signals (CSI-RSs) received by the first wireless device. The method generally includes and transmitting the CSI report in accordance with the control information.

CSI report setting by the CSI-transmitting user equipment

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support positioning reference signal (PRS)-assisted beam management. In particular, various aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for a network entity to select a beam of a plurality of beams for communications between a base station and a user equipment (UE) based on line-of-sight (LOS) path detection results. In some implementations, the LOS path detection results may include an indication as to whether a PRS includes an LOS path signal and/or an NLOS, and/or a signal strength of the LOS path signal, as well as other information that a network entity (e.g., a UE or a base station) may use in a beam management procedure (e.g., to select a beam). Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

Positioning reference signals (PRS)-assisted beam management for communication

In an aspect, a location server may receive a request to determine a position of a first mobile device at a first scheduled time. The location server may determine a first position of a second mobile device during a first time window before the first scheduled time. The location server may configure the second mobile device to perform positioning operations during a second time window corresponding to the first scheduled time to assist in the determination of the position of the first mobile device at the first scheduled time.

Scheduled positioning of target devices using mobile anchor devices

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In one aspect, a first user equipment (UE) may transmit an indication of non-preferred resources to a second UE and an indication of an amount of transmit power reduction for the second UE to observe for a sidelink transmission on the non-preferred resources. In another aspect, a first UE may transmit an indication of an amount of transmit power reduction for a second UE to observe for a sidelink transmission on conflicting resources (e.g., resources reserved by the second UE and a third UE). Because the second UE may transmit on the non-preferred resources or the conflicting resources with reduced power (e.g., rather than suppressing transmissions on the non-preferred resources or the conflicting resources), the utilization of the non-preferred resources or the conflicting resources may be improved.

Transmit power adjustment based on inter-user equipment coordination

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may identify time and frequency resources for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) to be transmitted to a user equipment (UE) in a first transmission time interval (TTI). The base station may transmit configuration information for a control channel search space set in a second TTI. The second TTI may precede the first TTI. The configuration information may include an indication of an absence of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmission to send in the control channel search space set indicating the identified time and frequency resources for the PDSCH, and a set of time and frequency resources for the control channel search space set. The UE may receive the configuration information and identify the time and frequency resources allocated for the PDSCH in the second TTI, and receive the PDSCH transmission in the second TTI.

Virtual search spaces for beam indication

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first user equipment (UE) may determine, based at least in part on a channel sensing using a receive beam of the first UE, preferred resources or non-preferred resources of the first UE for a sidelink transmission by a second UE. The UE may transmit, to the second UE, inter-UE coordination (IUC) information that indicates: a transmit beam of the second UE, and the preferred resources or the non-preferred resources of the first UE, wherein the preferred resources or the non-preferred resources of the first UE are to be applied to the transmit beam of the second UE indicated in the IUC information. Numerous other aspects are described.

Transmitting inter-user-equipment coordination information based at least in part on beamforming

In some implementations, a method of wireless communication includes selecting, at a user equipment (UE), one or more control resource sets (CORESETs) from a plurality of CORESETs corresponding to the UE. At least one of the plurality of CORESETs corresponds to multiple active transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states. The method further includes performing a radio link monitoring (RLM) operation, a beam failure detection (BFD) operation, or both, based on one or more reference signals (RSs) corresponding to active TCI states associated with the one or more selected CORESETs.

Radio link monitoring (RLM)/beam failure detection (BFD) reference signal (RS) for coresets with multiple active transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Wireless devices may be configured to support techniques for bi-directional discontinuous reception (DRX) alignment and centralized DRX alignment. In the context of bi-directional DRX alignment, DRX configurations at two respective user equipments (UEs) are first established in a first direction, and then DRX configurations are then established in the reverse direction based on the previously-established DRX configurations. In particular, DRX configurations in the reverse direction may be selected such that the Uu and sidelink DRX configurations are aligned at the respective UEs and across the UEs. Comparatively, in the context of centralized DRX alignment, a master base station receives 'candidate' Uu and sidelink DRX configurations for multiple UEs, and selects Uu and sidelink DRX configurations for each UE from the sets of candidate DRX configurations in order to ensure DRX alignment across the respective UEs.
