    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for an extended feature indication in new radio (NR), such as for slice specific extension (SSE). Aspects provide a method that may be performed by a transmitter device, such as a user equipment (UE) or a network node (e.g., a base station (BS)). The method generally includes determining a network node supports an extended feature, the extended feature being associated with an extended feature identifier. The transmitter device transmits a message, the message including the extended feature identifier and an indication that the apparatus is using the extended feature. A receiver device can receive the message and process the message and/or one or more subsequent messages based on the indication that the transmitter device is using the extended feature and the extended feature identifier.

    Abstract: Some techniques and apparatuses described herein permit a user equipment (UE) to transition among different power settings for different parameters that impact the amount of power consumed by the UE. Such transitions may be configured to occur during a discontinuous reception (DRX) active time to provide power savings during the DRX active time or increase throughput during the DRX active time. In some aspects, the transitions may be signaled by a base station based at least in part on traffic volume for the UE, which may assist with improving throughput (e.g., when data is available for the UE), and which may assist with extending battery life of the UE (e.g., when data is not available for the UE). In some aspects, such transitions and associated parameter values may be preconfigured or a transition may be triggered by expiration of a timer, thereby reducing signaling overhead.

    Abstract: The apparatus configured to provide an enhanced power management solution, by configuring the UE to perform a Beam Failure Detection (BFD) procedure in view of the DRX configuration of the UE and a periodicity of reference signal(s) used to assess a radio link quality. The apparatus receives a DRX configuration having a DRX period comprising a DRX on duration and a DRX off duration. The apparatus then determines a beam failure indication period based on a periodicity for reference signals (RSs) configured for beam failure detection and a DRX period. Then, the apparatus performs a radio link quality measurement of at least one of the RSs based on the beam failure indication period determined by the UE.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may receive a set of indicators indicating that a first transmission is scheduled for concurrent transmission with a second transmission, wherein the user equipment is not configured to transmit the first transmission and the second transmission concurrently. The user equipment may select one of the first transmission or the second transmission for transmission based at least in part on a characteristic of at least one of the first transmission or the second transmission identified using the set of indicators. The user equipment may transmit the selected one of the first transmission or the second transmission based at least in part on selecting the one of the first transmission or the second transmission. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to mechanisms for dynamic prioritization of uplink (UL) traffic at a user equipment (UE). In some examples, the UE may determine to delay transmission of UL traffic by skipping one or more UL transmission opportunities based on one or more factors, such as a power saving indication, a priority level of the UL traffic, a type of the UL traffic, a volume of the UL traffic, and/or current channel conditions. In some examples, the UE may be configured with a parameter controlling the ability of the UE to delay a transmission of UL traffic. In some examples, when the UE is operating in a semi-persistent scheduling mode and a power saving mode, such as a connected mode discontinuous reception (C-DRX) mode, the UE may dynamically interrupt an OFF duration of the C-DRX cycle to transmit UL traffic.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may identify, when using carrier aggregation and a plurality of component carrier groups, first traffic associated with a first service type and second traffic associated with a second service type for concurrent transmission. The user equipment may transmit, concurrently, the first traffic associated with the first service type using a first component carrier group of the plurality of component carrier groups, and the second traffic associated with the second service type using a second component carrier group of the plurality of component carrier groups. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Various techniques are proposed to enhance or expand the capabilities or usage of buffer status request (BSR) and scheduling request (SR) in new radio (NR) applications. In an implementation, techniques are proposed to extend the SR in long term evolution (LTE) baseline with additional information to help a base station (e.g., gNB) schedule faster and more efficiently. Moreover, a new BSR triggering condition is proposed to report new data based on particular events instead of being time-based. Modifications being proposed to both BSR and SR can be customized for different numerologies/transmission time intervals (TTIs). Modifications being proposed to SR can also be used to indicate a user equipment (UE) new beam selection after recovering from a beam failure.
