Abstract:
Wireless communication apparatus and methods related to dynamic TDD are described. In aspects, a method of wireless communication over a shared medium may include, receiving, from a base station, control information in a first portion of a transmission opportunity (TXOP), wherein the control information indicates a configuration for triggering a communication of at least one shared medium reservation signal associated with one or more remaining portions of the TXOP; and in response to receiving the control information in the first portion of the TXOP, monitoring for or transmitting the at least one shared medium reservation signal, based on the configuration.
Abstract:
A control resource region of an New Radio system slot structure may be separated into control resource sets, only some of which may be used for control transmissions. Aspects presented herein improve the efficient utilization of resources by enabling data transmission in resources of the DL control resource region and/or the UL control resource region. A UE receives an indication of a control resource set in a control resource region of a slot that may provide a control channel resource or a data channel resource and performs rate matching for data transmissions in the data channel based at least in part on the indication. The indication may be a semi-static indication, e.g., RRC signaling, of the control resource set.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may be a base station. The apparatus may transmit a first grant to a UE. The apparatus may determine whether an acknowledgment to the first grant is received. When the acknowledgment to the first grant fails to be received by the apparatus, the apparatus may transmit, to the UE, a second grant including information regarding the first grant. In another aspect, an apparatus may be a UE. The apparatus may receive a first grant. The first grant may include a first Mayday bit. The apparatus may receive a second grant. The second grant may include a TTI count corresponding to a number of unacknowledged TTIs. The second grant may further include a second Mayday bit. The apparatus may determine an acknowledgment based on the TTI count and the first and second Mayday bits.

Wireless communications systems and methods related to SDMA operations across multiple network operating entities are provided. A first wireless communication device transmits a communication indicating a reservation for one or more spatial layers in a transmission opportunity (TXOP) of a shared spectrum. The shared spectrum is shared by a first network operating entity and a second network operating entity. The first wireless communication device is associated with the first network operating entity. The first wireless communication device communicates, with a second wireless communication device, data over the one or more spatial layers during the TXOP. The second wireless communication device is associated with the first network operating entity.

Abstract:
Techniques for overlapping cluster architecture for coordinated multipoint (CoMP) are provided. According to certain aspects, a method of wireless communication by a transmission point is provided. The method generally includes receiving, from a first base station, a first signal for a first user equipment (UE) to transmit over the air, receiving, from a second base station, a second signal for a second UE to transmit over the air, and combining the first and the second signals from the first and second base stations and transmitting the combined signal to the first and second UE.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication employing two-stage control channel messaging. Systems, methods, and apparatuses for two stage two-stage physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with a downlink control information (DCI) flag and DCI format size indicator are described. For instance, the present disclosure presents an example method of wireless communication at a wireless device, which may include receiving, at a first bandwidth and during a transmission time interval (TTI), a first control channel message. In addition, the example method may include determining, based on a flag in the first control channel message, whether a second control channel message is present in the TTI. Furthermore, the example method may include receiving, at a second bandwidth, the second control channel message where the flag indicates that the second control channel message is present for the TTI.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure are related to identifying whether an apparatus (e.g., base station, access point, etc.) is transmitting using a CRS based transmission scheme or a UE-RS based transmission scheme. Such detection may be necessary for PDSCH interference cancellation (IC) of a neighboring cell since a UE may not know which transmission scheme is used by the neighboring cell. For instance, the UE may know the transmission scheme of the serving cell, but the UE may not know the transmission scheme of a neighboring non-serving cell. As such, aspects of the disclosure provide for a blind detection algorithm to identify or determine a transmission mode or transmission scheme of a neighboring cell to then apply interference cancellation (IC) to an interfering signal received from the neighboring cell.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for transmission restriction and efficient signaling. A base station (BS) may determine information regarding a restricted set of system parameters used for transmission from at least one of the serving BS or one or more potentially interfering BSs and signal the information to a user equipment (UE). According to certain aspects, a UE may receive the signaling of information regarding the restricted set of system parameters used for transmission from at least one of the serving BS or the one or more potentially interfering BSs and use the information to cancel interference by transmissions from the one or more potentially interfering BSs or serving BS.
