    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network node, information that indicates a periodic sequence of network energy saving (NES) states that are each associated with an antenna configuration of the network node. The UE may receive, from the network node during a current time period, one or more downlink transmissions using a maximum quantity of multiple input multiple output (MIMO) layers associated with an active NES state that is identified for a current time period based at least in part on the periodic sequence of NES states. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may transmit, to the network node during the current time period, one or more sounding reference signal (SRS) transmissions using an SRS antenna sounding configuration associated with the active NES state for the current time period. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques support decoupled uplink and downlink communications via reconfigurable intelligent surfaces. Generally, the described techniques provide for using different passive network nodes for uplink and downlink communications. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, an indication of a first transmission configuration indicator state for downlink communications with the base station and a second transmission configuration indicator state for uplink communications with the base station. The UE may receive, from the base station via a first passive device (e.g., a first reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)) associated with the first transmission configuration indicator state, a downlink message in a radio frame. The UE may transmit, to the base station via a second passive device (e.g., a second RIS) associated with the second transmission configuration indicator state, an uplink message in the radio frame.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A UE may receive, from a base station, an indication of a degree of UE loading for at least one of a set of reconfigurable reflective surfaces that are configured to assist in communications between the UE and the base station. The UE may select a reconfigurable reflective surface for use in the communications between the UE and the base station based on the degree of UE loading of the selected reconfigurable reflective surface, and transmit a signal to the base station via the selected reconfigurable reflective surface. In some cases, the UE may receive, from the base station, an indication for the UE to use a different reconfigurable reflective surface than the selected reconfigurable reflective surface, and may transmit a second signal to the base station via a second reconfigurable reflective surface based on the indication.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may identify a maximum number of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) layers for a communication based at least in part on at least one of a number of channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) ports associated with a network node, or a transition of a transmission reception point (TRP) associated with the network node to or from a dormancy state. The UE may perform the communication in accordance with the maximum number of MIMO layers. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a first indication that a network node is in a sleep mode. The UE may receive a second indication of periodic wake-up signal (WUS) occasions associated with the sleep mode. The UE may receive a third indication to defer, for one or more WUS occasions, a transmission of a WUS associated with data, deferral of the transmission being based at least in part on a latency parameter associated with the data. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration including a first group of transmission configuration states associated with transmission via a configurable surface and a second group of transmission configuration states independent of the configurable surface. The UE may receive downlink control information according to a first transmission configuration state of the first group of transmission configuration states. The UE may receive the downlink control information via a transmission path including the configurable surface. The downlink control information may include a grant scheduling a data transmission according to a second transmission configuration state of the second group of transmission configuration states. The UE may perform or receive the data transmission according to the second transmission configuration state. The downlink control information based on a set of resources associated with transmission via the configurable surfaces satisfying a threshold.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit a random access channel preamble to abase station. The UE may receive, from the base station and in response to the random access channel preamble, a grant comprising a first frequency hopping indication associated with intra-slot frequency hopping and a second frequency hopping indication associated with inter-slot frequency hopping. The UE may identify, based at least in part on the first frequency hopping indication or the second frequency hopping indication, a frequency hopping configuration for transmission of repetitions of an uplink transmission responsive to the grant. The UE may transmit the repetitions of the uplink transmission using one or more frequency Chops in accordance with the frequency hopping configuration.
