    Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to on-demand cell coverage extension for broadcast signals are provided. A first wireless communication device communicates, with a second wireless communication device, a first extended cell coverage request. The first wireless communication device communicates, with the second wireless communication device, a first broadcast communication signal in an extended cell coverage mode in response to the first extended cell coverage request. The first broadcast communication signal includes a system information block repeated in at least one of a time domain or a frequency domain.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for wireless communication including an apparatus, e.g., a UE and/or a base station. The apparatus may receive an indication of at least one TDRA table for one of a plurality of TB modes for communication with the base station, the plurality of TB modes including at least one of a first TB mode or a second TB mode, the first TB mode corresponding to multiple TBs via a single grant, the second TB mode corresponding to a single TB with at least one repetition via the single grant. The apparatus may also apply, based on the at least one TDRA table, the one of the plurality of TB modes for the communication with the base station. Additionally, the apparatus may transmit uplink data, or receive downlink data, based on the one of the plurality of TB modes.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In a first case, a first user equipment (UE) may transmit to a second UE a sidelink discovery message preamble corresponding to a sidelink discovery message. The first UE may identify resources for transmission of the sidelink discovery messages based on the sidelink discovery message preamble. The first UE may either transmit the sidelink discovery message to the second UE or may receive the sidelink discovery message from the second UE using the identified resources for the transmission of the sidelink discovery message. In some cases, the second UE may transmit sidelink control information (SCI) to the first UE, and may transmit a sidelink discovery message to the first UE based on resources identified in the SCI. In some cases, the first UE may transmit the sidelink discovery message without transmission of a preamble or a SCI.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A hub user equipment (UE) in a star topology may broadcast to a set of peripheral UEs indicating slots when the hub UE will not be in a transmission mode. The hub UE may broadcast a slot format indication to the peripheral UEs to indicate operating modes in a set of slots. In a first group of slots, the hub UE may operate in a forward mode, transmitting sidelink communications to the peripheral UEs. In a second group of slots, the hub UE may operate in a reverse mode, receiving sidelink communications from the peripheral UEs. In slots when the hub UE operates in the reverse mode, if a peripheral UE does not have data or control information, the peripheral UE may enter a sleep mode in one or more slots of the second group to save power.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support mechanisms for non-coherent, sequence-based downlink control signaling in a wireless communication system. In aspects, the mechanisms for non-coherent, sequence-based downlink control signaling may include a new non-coherent, sequence-based downlink control channel or signal transmitted from a base station to a user equipment (UE) and configured to convey information bits (e.g., control information bits) to the UE. The UE may receive a signal transmitted over the new non-coherent, sequence-based downlink control channel and may decode the signal to extract the control information. The UE may then apply a control based on the control information received from the base station in the signal over the non-coherent, sequence-based downlink control channel.
