Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a transmitter network node may generate a grouping descriptor, for a transport block, that indicates grouping information for a plurality of protocol data units (PDUs) in the transport block. The transmitter network node may transmit the grouping descriptor with the transport block. Numerous other aspects are described.

Transport block descriptor for packet grouping

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for packet buffering. A method that may be performed by a receiving node includes dynamically determining one or more time durations to buffer packets. The one or more time durations can be different than a time duration of a configured timer for buffering the packets. The receiving node may input one or more parameters to a machine learning algorithm and obtain, as output of the machine learning algorithm based on the input one or more parameters, one or more time durations to buffer packets. The receiving node buffers packets for the determined one or more time durations. The receiving node may use machine learning to dynamically determine the one or more time durations to buffer packet. The buffering may be at a radio link control (RLC) reassembling buffer and/or a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) buffer.

Dynamic packet buffering duration

Aspects directed towards Quality of Service (QoS) flow remapping are disclosed. In an example, upon detecting a mapping reconfiguration of a first QoS flow from a first data radio bearer (DRB) to another DRB, a Service Data Adaptation Protocol (SDAP) control protocol data unit (PDU) is generated indicating that a final SDAP data PDU associated with the first QoS flow has been transmitted on the first DRB. The SDAP control PDU is then transmitted via the first DRB. In another example, upon detecting a mapping reconfiguration of a first QoS flow from a first DRB to another DRB, an end marker parameter is set in an SDAP header of a first SDAP data PDU received from an upper layer after the mapping reconfiguration indicating that the first SDAP data PDU is a final SDAP data PDU associated with the first QoS flow transmitted on the first DRB.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may receive protocol data units (PDUs) in multiple TTIs (e.g., slots). The wireless communication device may generate, for each TTI of the multiple TTIs, a descriptor that identifies serial numbers (SNs) of PDUs that are received in the TTI. The wireless communication device may aggregate the descriptors for the multiple TTIs into an aggregated descriptor that identifies the SNs of the PDUs across the multiple TTIs. The wireless communication device may process the PDUs received in the multiple TTIs based at least in part on the aggregated descriptor. Numerous other aspects are described.

Descriptor aggregation across multiple transmission time intervals

A method and apparatus for prioritizing data packets when stateful compression is enabled for wireless communications is disclosed. For example, the aspects include receiving a plurality of data packets scheduled in a first order for transmission. The described aspects further include prioritizing one or more data packets of the plurality of data packets as one or more prioritized data packets, each prioritized data packet being scheduled in an order for transmission different from the first order for transmission. The described aspects further include compressing one or more unprioritized data packets of the plurality of data packets into one or more compressed unprioritized data packets. The described aspects further include scheduling the one or more prioritized data packets and the one or more compressed unprioritized data packets in a second order for transmission, the second order differing from the first order.

Prioritizing data packets when stateful compression is enabled

In wireless communication, uplink communication by a wireless communication system user equipment may include providing data packets by a data source in the user equipment, detecting a pattern relating to uplink transmission of the plurality of data packets, and scheduling transmission of the plurality of data packets by the user equipment. One or more aspects of scheduling transmission of the plurality of data packets may be based on the detected pattern.

Systems and methods for uplink data scheduling in wireless communication systems

Various aspects of the disclosure relate to techniques for handling out-of-order grants. For example, upon detection of an out-of-order grant, the best scheduling policy for handling the out-of-order grants may be selected based on at least one traffic condition. In some aspects, a scheduling policy may involve canceling and regenerating out-of-order grants. In some aspects, a scheduling policy may involve reordering data units. In some aspects, a scheduling policy may involve designating a reorder time window.

Scheduling policies for out-of-order grants

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatuses for wireless communication using a protocol data unit (PDU) including a service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) PDU that has an unciphered header. The unciphered SDAP header facilitates various optimizations in wireless communication.

Header formats in wireless communication

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A receiving device may receive, at a first operational layer of the receiving device, one or more protocol data units (PDUs) within a set of PDUs. The receiving device may identify, at a second operational layer of the receiving device, a sequence gap associated with a missing PDU from the set of PDUs, the first operational layer being a lower operational layer of the receiving device than the second operational layer. The receiving device may determine, at the second operational layer, that a triggering condition associated with the missing PDU has occurred. The receiving device may provide, by the second operational layer and based at least in part on the triggering condition occurring, an indication to update a reception buffer of the first operational layer to a last received protocol data unit of the set of PDUs.
