    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate generally to wireless communications systems, and more particularly, to soft combining of control information. For example, certain aspects provide a method for wireless communication. The method generally includes monitoring for control information in each of a plurality of physical downlink control channel (PDCCHs) during a different one of a plurality of time intervals, wherein the PDCCHs contain the same control information that indicates a resource allocation within a respective one of the time intervals for receiving one of a plurality of physical downlink shared channels (PDSCHs), wherein data in each of the plurality of PDSCHs is the same. In certain aspects, the method also includes soft-combining the plurality of PDCCHs to decode the control information, and decoding the control information based on the soft-combination of the plurality of PDCCHs.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for low density parity check (LDPC) interleaving with improved error floor performance. A method for wireless communications that may be provided by a transmitting device is provided. The method generally includes encoding one or more information bits using a LDPC code to produce a coded bit sequence comprising systematic bits and parity bits. The transmitting device stores the coded bit sequence in a circular buffer. The transmitting device performs rate matching on the coded bit sequence. The rate matching includes interleaving the parity bits with a partial interleaver and interleaving the systematic bits and interleaved parity bits with a systematic bit priority mapping (SBPM) interleaver. The transmitting device maps the SBPM interleaved bit sequence to constellation points according to a modulation scheme and transmits the modulated bit sequence.

    Abstract: Wireless communication devices are adapted to facilitate multiplexing of signals. According to one example, a wireless communication device can multiplex a first signal and a second signal for transmission across a first resource element and a second resource element. The first resource element may utilize a first subcarrier in a first symbol employing a first numerology. The second resource element may utilize a second subcarrier in a second symbol employing a second numerology that is different from the first numerology, where the second subcarrier overlaps in frequency at least a portion of the first subcarrier. The first and second symbols including the multiplexed first and second signals may subsequently be transmitted. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a bandwidth part configuration for a plurality of bandwidth parts, wherein a first bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts is identified as being activated and is associated with first resources allocated for uplink grant-free transmissions by the UE on the first bandwidth part. The UE may receive determine to deactivate the first bandwidth part and activate a second bandwidth part, and may determine to reactivate the first bandwidth part. The UE may identify second resources for uplink grant-free transmissions by the UE on the first bandwidth part based at least in part on the bandwidth part configuration. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Some wireless communications systems may support mobile broadband (MBB) communications and low latency communications. To facilitate low latency communications, a base station may assign resources allocated for an MBB transmission for a low latency transmission. As described herein, to limit interference between an MBB transmission and a low latency transmission while maximizing the chances that the MBB transmission is received, an MBB user equipment (UE) may be configured to adjust a transmit power for the MBB transmission to limit the impact on a low latency transmission without preempting the MBB transmission. However, if the MBB UE is unable to adjust the transmit power for the MBB transmission prior to the MBB transmission, the MBB UE may determine whether to drop a portion of the MBB transmission on the resources assigned for the low latency transmission (e.g., based on whether a received power of the MBB transmission exceeds a threshold).
