Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some examples, a random access occasion may overlap in time with a synchronization signal block resource, where the random access occasion and the synchronization signal block resource have a same index. In some such examples, a base station may transmit, to a user equipment (UE), an indicator of a mapping of the random access occasion to an uplink beam that is associated with a synchronization signal block resource with a different index than the random access occasion. The UE may transmit, to the base station, a random access preamble over the random access occasion using the uplink beam.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure are directed to a method for wireless communication. The method generally includes receiving a configuration of trigger states for channel state information (CSI)-reference signal (RS) reporting, receiving a first downlink control information (DCI) activating one of the trigger states, receiving CSI-RS in accordance with the activated one of the trigger states, and processing the CSI-RS.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for configuring reference signals. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a control message indicating a first quasi co-location (QCL) for an aperiodic-tracking reference signal (A-TRS), the A-TRS being associated with a periodic-tracking reference signal (P-TRS), determining a second QCL for the P-TRS based on the first QCL for the A-TRS, setting a receive beam for reception of the P-TRS based on the second QCL of the P-TRS, and decoding one or more frames based on channel statistics estimated via the P-TRS received via the receive beam.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may perform a dual active link handover procedure from a source base station to a target base station. During the dual active link handover procedure, the UE may have connections to both of the base stations concurrently. In such cases, transmission opportunities for communicating with the base stations may conflict. To handle conflicting transmission opportunities, the UE may drop a monitoring occasion or a packet reception for a base station based on prioritization rules. In some cases, to mitigate packet losses, the base station may configure re-transmissions or slot aggregation to provide the UE with additional opportunities to receive a packet. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may transmit a notification message to a base station indicating dropped monitoring occasions or packets.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may establish a connection with a base station based at least in part on a synchronization signal block from the base station, wherein the synchronization signal block comprises at least a first synchronization signal. The UE may identify a configuration for a transmission pattern for the first synchronization signal to be transmitted by the base station. The UE may receive one or more instances of the first synchronization signal according to the transmission pattern for the first synchronization signal. The UE may modify the established connection with the base station based at least in part on the received one or more instances of the first synchronization signal.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may identify one or more multi-panel capabilities for multi-panel operation of a plurality of panels associated with the UE. The UE may transmit, to a base station (BS), an indication of the one or more multi-panel capabilities. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive control signaling including a set of parameters. The set of parameters may include one or more thresholds associated with initiating aperiodic beam failure detection (BFD) reference signals (RSs). The UE may receive a set of periodic BFD-RSs. In some examples, the UE or the base station may determine that a triggering threshold is satisfied. In some cases, the UE may determine that the set of periodic BFD-RSs satisfies a consecutive beam failure indication (BFI) threshold, a cumulative BFI threshold, or the like. In some cases, a base station may determine that the set of periodic BFD-RSs satisfies a channel quality threshold. The UE may receive a set of one or more aperiodic BFD-RSs based on whether the triggering threshold is satisfied.

Abstract: In an aspect, the present disclosure includes a method, apparatus, and computer readable medium for wireless communications for connecting, by a user equipment (UE), to a source cell via a first transmission configuration indication (TCI) state; connecting, by the UE, to a target cell via a second TCI state during a handover from the source cell to the target cell; determining, by the UE, whether a first transmission using the first TCI state overlaps in time with a second transmission using the second TCI state; and performing, by the UE, TCI selection between the first beam and the second TCI state based at least in part on the determination of whether the first transmission using the first TCI state overlaps or does not overlap with the second transmission using the second TCI state.

Abstract: A UE detects a beam failure on a first CC. The UE determines whether to transmit a BFRQ to a base station on the first CC or a second CC. The UE determines whether to include a NBI report in the BFRQ. The UE transmits the BFRQ to the base station on the first CC or the second CC. The base station receives a BFRQ from a UE on a first CC or a second CC. The base station determines a new beam for the first CC, where the determination of the new beam is based on a RACH procedure when the BFRQ is received on the first CC or a NBI report in the BFRQ when the BFRQ is received on the second CC. The base station initiates a BFR procedure with the UE for the first CC based on the BFRQ and the new beam determination.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may detect a beam failure associated with a component carrier (CC) of a plurality of CCs that are aggregated. The UE may identify, based at least in part on detecting the beam failure, a CC group in which the CC and one or more other CCs, of the plurality of CCs, are included. The UE may transmit, to the BS, a beam failure recovery request (BFRQ) communication associated with the CC group. Numerous other aspects are provided.
