    Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to reducing the signaling overhead for configuring a common reference signal used in performing coarse power control of multiple spatial domain multiplexing (SDM) uplink streams are provided. A base station may be in communication with a UE via multiple SDM streams directed from the same panel of the respective device. The base station may configure a common pathloss reference signal for the SDM streams of the same panel for the UE. This may include sending a list of possible pathloss reference signal configurations to the UE, and then identifying which configuration to use for the pathloss reference signal for the group of SDM streams. Once known, the UE may measure the reference signal for open loop power control. The BS may occasionally reconfigure the common reference signal for the grouped SDM streams.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration of random access resources from a base station. The configuration may indicate a quantity of a plurality of random access preambles, a quantity of a plurality of synchronization signal blocks (SSBs), and a quantity of random access preambles per SSB. The received configuration may indicate that each random access preamble of the plurality of random access preambles is available to the UE in the random access occasion for each SSB of a plurality of SSBs transmitted by the base station. The UE may select a random access preamble of the plurality of random access preambles based at least in part on the received configuration and transmit the selected random access preamble to the base station in the random access occasion.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless networks may maintain up-to-date location information for the UE by periodically determining the location the UE using a low power transponding mechanism while the UE is in an inactive state. The UE may monitor a first beam to receive one or more transponder search signals during one or more transponder occasions, and between paging attempts from one or more of the base stations of the network. The UE may receive the one or more transponder search signals, and may transmit a transponder response message to a base station including a UE identifier associated with the inactive state. The base station may receive the transponder response message, and may conduct various location measurements for the UE using the transponder response.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support short control messaging using index modulation on DMRS. In a first aspect, a method of wireless communication includes a base station determining a configuration action for a served user equipment (UE) in communication with the base station. The base station may then generate a short control message associated with the configuration action and map that short control message onto a set of inactive subcarrier resource elements (REs) of a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) sequence. The served UE may then receive the transmitted DMRS sequence and determine the short control message within the set of inactive subcarrier REs of the DMRS sequence. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

    Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to beam refinement with simultaneous spatial-division multiplexed beams are provided. A user equipment (UE) receives, from a base station (BS), a plurality of reference signals in a set of beam directions. The receiving includes receiving, simultaneously during a first symbol, at least a first reference signal of the plurality of reference signals in a first beam direction of the set of beam directions and a second reference signal of the plurality of reference signals in a second beam direction of the set of beam directions, where the second beam direction is different from the first beam direction. The UE transmits, to the BS, a beam report indicating received signal measurements for two or more beam directions of the set of beam directions.
