    Abstract: In some aspects, a base station may transmit a configuration that indicates a resource set to be used by a millimeter wave repeater for beam management, wherein the resource set includes a first set of resources to be used by the millimeter wave repeater to receive one or more reference signals from a first node and a second set of resources to be used by the millimeter wave repeater to relay the one or more reference signals to a second node. The base station may identify a first beam pair and a second beam pair based at least in part on the one or more reference signals received and/or relayed in accordance with the configuration, wherein the first beam pair is between the millimeter wave repeater and the first node and the second beam pair is between the millimeter wave repeater and the second node. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit, and a base station may receive, information related to multipath richness of a channel environment and information related to antenna module capabilities associated with the UE for at least a first frequency band and a second frequency band. The base station may transmit, and the UE may receive, information indicating a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) mode in which to operate one or more antenna modules of the UE based at least in part on the information related to the multipath richness of the channel environment, the antenna module capabilities associated with the UE, and respective cell loadings in the first frequency band and the second frequency band. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first wireless device may receive a measurement configuration, from a second wireless device, to support full-duplex operation using a shared resource. The first wireless device may transmit, via the shared resource, a first signal via a first transmission beam using a first antenna array of the first wireless device. The first wireless device may monitor, in accordance with the measurement configuration, the shared resource using a first receive beam via a second antenna array of the first wireless device. The first wireless device may then transmit a measurement report to a second wireless device based on the monitoring. The second wireless device may transmit, to the first wireless device, a duplexing configuration configuring the full-duplex operation of the first wireless device based on the measurement report.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for wireless communication of a phased array repeater. The apparatus may receive, from a base station, a signal for a user equipment (UE) at a first frequency. The apparatus may also adjust, at the phased array repeater, the first frequency of the signal to a second frequency, where the first frequency may be adjusted by heterodyning. Additionally, the apparatus may transmit the signal to the UE at the second frequency. The present disclosure also relates to methods and apparatus for wireless communication. The apparatus may transmit a signal for a UE at a first frequency. Further, the apparatus may determine control information for tuning a frequency adjustment of the signal at a repeater. The apparatus may also transmit, to the repeater, the control information for tuning the frequency adjustment.

    Abstract: In one aspect, a method for wireless communication includes transmitting, by a wireless communication device, symbol configuration information for a particular transmission time interval (TTI). The symbol configuration information indicates one or more subsets of symbols of the particular TTI, and the wireless communication device is operating in a full duplex mode. The method for wireless communication further includes transmitting, by the wireless communication device, Quasi-Colocation (QCL) information for one or more subsets of the symbols, where the QCL information indicates multiple QCL per TTI. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques leverage user equipment (UE) functionality to repeat wireless signals received from a base station to one or more other UEs and received from one or more other UEs to the base station. The repeating UE receives, during a transmission time interval reserved for one of uplink communication or downlink communication, a signal from a first device. The UE operates in a time division duplex network. The UE routes the signal, via a radio-frequency (RF) transmission path from an RF receive chain of the UE to an RF transmit chain of the UE. The UE retransmits the signal to a second device during the transmission time interval.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. One method may inlcude a base station or other device estimating an intended coverage area of all possible communication devices that are to be serviced by the base station or other device. The base station or other device may dynamically optimize at least one transmission metric such as a codebook, in response to a change in the coverage area. Another method may include a base station estimating a dynamic coverage area of a set of all possible user equipments or devices to be serviced, and dynamically optimizing a codebook structure in response to a change in the coverage area. Another method may include the base station determining a use-case of the set of all possible user equipments to be serviced by the base station, and hard-coding a metric corresponding to the use case.
