Abstract:
Resource allocation techniques for D2D communications are described. In one embodiment, for example, user equipment may comprise one or more radio frequency (RF) transceivers, one or more RF antennas, and logic, at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to receive a D2D control information (D2DCI) message comprising D2D transmission pattern (DTP) information, identify a set of D2D transmission resources based on the DTP information, and send one or more D2D data messages using the set of D2D transmission resources. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract:
Technology to determine a Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest-ACKnowledge (HARQ-ACK) codebook size for inter-band time division duplex (TDD) carrier aggregation (CA) is disclosed. In an example, a user equipment (UE) operable to determine a HARQ-ACK codebook size for inter-band TDD CA can include computer circuitry configured to: Determine a HARQ bundling window for inter-band TDD CA including a number of downlink (DL) subframes using HARQ-ACK feedback; divide the HARQ bundling window into a first part and a second part; and calculate the HARQ-ACK codebook size based on the first part and the second part. The first part can include DL subframes of configured serving cells that occur no later than the DL subframe where a downlink control information (DCI) transmission for uplink scheduling on a serving cell is conveyed, and the second part can include physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) subframes occurring after the DCI transmission of the serving cells.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure describe apparatuses and methods for selecting or extending time resource patterns relating to device-to-device (D2D) functionality. Various embodiments may include processing circuitry to select a subset of a predefined set of D2D time resource pattern bitmaps and generate a signal having information corresponding to the selected subset of D2D time resource pattern bitmaps. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
A computer-readable storage medium stores instructions to configure one or more processors of a Further Reduced Capacity (F-RedCap) UE for operation in a 5G NR network, and to cause the F-RedCap UE to perform operations including decoding a PBCH to obtain a numerology parameter. A maximum resource block (RB) allocation is determined for a bandwidth associated with the numerology parameter. The maximum RB allocation is adjusted based on a reduced bandwidth associated with the F-RedCap UE to obtain an adjusted RB allocation. A maximum data rate is determined based on the numerology parameter and the adjusted RB allocation. Data is encoded for an uplink (UE) transmission to a base station. The UE transmission uses the maximum data rate.
Abstract:
Various embodiments herein provide techniques related to downlink multicast and broadcast service (MBS) data and control. In embodiments, abase station may identify, based on an active bandwidth part (BWP) of a user equipment (UE), a transmission control indicator (TCI) state list configuration related to a unicast transmission to the UE; and transmit the multicast or broadcast transmission based on the TCI state list. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
Embodiments of a user equipment (UE) configurable for unlicensed band operation in a 5G NR system (5GS), when operating in semi-static channel access mode, for a UE-initiated channel-occupancy time (COT), is configured to transmit an uplink (UL) transmission burst, as an initiating device, starting at a beginning of fixed frame period (FFP) and ending at a symbol before an idle period of the FFP after a successful clear-channel assessment (CCA).
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) configured for Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) codebook determination in a fifth-generation (5G) new radio (NR) network may decode a downlink control information (DCI) format received from a generation Node B (gNB). When the DCI format triggers HARQ-ACK codebook retransmission, the UE may determine a HARQ-ACK codebook to be retransmitted based on a time-offset indicated in the DCI format. To determine the HARQ-ACK codebook to be retransmitted, the UE may determine an uplink (UL) slot that included an initial transmission of the HARQ-ACK codebook based on subtracting the time-offset from the DL slot that included the DCI. The UE may also encode a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) to include the HARQ-ACK codebook determined to be retransmitted in a UL slot based on a slot offset.
Abstract:
A computer-readable storage medium stores instructions to configure a UE for joint channel estimation of uplink transmissions in a Fifth Generation New Radio (5G NR) and beyond wireless network, and to cause the UE to perform operations. The operations include decoding DCI or higher layer signaling received from a base station. The DCI or the higher layer signaling indicates a number of PUSCH repetitions forming the uplink transmissions. The operations further include decoding higher layer signaling received from the base station, the higher layer signaling indicating a size of a time domain window (TDW) associated with the uplink transmissions. The TDW has a number of slots equal to the size. Each of the PUSCH repetitions within the TDW is associated with a same carrier phase and a same transmit power.
