Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may support configured grant (CG)-small data transmission (SDT) procedures. To improve CG-SDT, the UE may validate measurement resources for timing advance (TA) validation and CG resource validation. The UE may receive a radio resource control (RRC) release message indicating CG resources and information that may be used for TA and CG resource validation, and the UE may receive measurement information based on one or more reference signals. In some cases, the UE may validate the measurement information and use it to perform a TA command (TAC) validation procedure. In some other cases, the UE may validate the measurement information and use it to perform a communication resources validation procedure. While in an inactive state, the UE may transmit an uplink communication using the validated TA and the validated communication resources.
