    Abstract: UEs may want to switch to the RRC idle state or to the RRC inactive state sooner than the expiration of the timer or without having to wait for the network to release the RRC connection. Allowing the UE to increase the rate at which it transitions to RRC idle state or RRC inactive state may allow the UE to reduce power consumption, as well as reduce signaling resources. The apparatus determines a preference between a transition to an RRC inactive state or to an RRC idle state when an RRC connection is released. The apparatus sends, to a base station, an RRC state preference indication of the preference for transitioning upon release of the RRC connection from the RRC connected state to one of the RRC inactive state or to the RRC idle state.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may receive a first group downlink control information transmission associated with a UE group, where the first group downlink control information transmission may reference a second group downlink control information transmission (e.g., according to a pre-notification indication). The UE may determine a feedback condition for the second group downlink control information transmission and monitor for the second group downlink control information transmission. Alternatively, the UE may receive a second group downlink control information transmission referencing the first group downlink control information transmission (e.g., according to a post-confirmation indication), and the UE may determine a feedback condition for the first group downlink control information transmission. Based on the feedback condition, the UE may transmit feedback information, for example, indicating that the UE did not correctly receive the indicated group downlink control information transmission.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a configuration message that indicates a radio resource allocation and a transmission scheme for one or more first configured grant-small data transfer (CG-SDT) occasions and one or more second CG-SDT occasions. The one or more second CG-SDT occasions are at least partially nested, in time, frequency, or a combination thereof, within the one or more first CG-SDT occasions. The UE may therefore transmit, to the base station, an uplink communication within the one or more first CG-SDT occasions or the one or more second CG-SDT occasions, using the radio resource allocation and the transmission scheme. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may configure resources on a first communication link for scheduling requests and may transmit an indication of the configured resources over a second communication link to a first device. The first device may relay the indication of the configured resources to a second device via the first communication link. The second device may identify that resources on the first communication link are unavailable for a transmission and may transmit a scheduling request. The first device may receive the scheduling request. The first device may transmit, over the first communication link and based on the scheduling request, an indication of one or more shared channel resources configured by the base station for the transmission. The first device may receive, over the first communication link, the transmission over the one or more shared channel resources.
