    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a base station may transmit control information to a user equipment (UE) indicating a pair of joint transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states. The UE may use one of the TCI states for receiving or transmitting one or more uplink or downlink messages, and another TCI state for receiving or transmitting a repetition of the one or more messages. In some examples, the base station may transmit separate indications of multiple pairs of TCI states. The UE may use one of the pairs of TCI states for uplink repetitions, and may use another pair of TCI states for downlink repetitions. The UE may indicate the joint or separate TCI states via DCI signaling. In some examples, the UE may update or activate TCI state pairs, and may perform beam forming procedures using the TCI state pair or pairs.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit a downlink control information message to a user equipment (UE) that includes both a first indication of one or more transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states for the UE to use for communications with the base station and a second indication of one or more uplink transmissions to be sent by the UE. In some implementations, the UE may use one of the one or more indicated TCI states to communicate with the base station after a delay (or offset) from sending an uplink transmission of the one or more uplink transmissions. For example, the delay may include an amount of time or a quantity of symbols between transmitting the uplink transmission of the one or more uplink transmissions and communicating with the base station using the one of the one or more indicated TCI states.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some example, a base station may facilitate panel activation or deactivation at a user equipment (UE). For example, a UE including a set of panels may establish a connection with a base station. The base station may transmit an activation configuration message activating or deactivating a subset of panels at the UE. Based on the activation configuration message, the UE may select one or more panels from the set of panels and transmit an uplink transmission to the base station using the selected one or more panels.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine a transmission of a channel status information (CSI) report based at least in part on receiving a CSI request via PDCCH repetitions, based at least in part on transmitting the CSI report via PUCCH repetitions, or based at least in part on transmitting the CSI report via PUSCH repetitions. The UE may determine, based at least in part on the determined transmission of the CSI report, CSI processing criteria including one or more of a CSI processing timeline, a CSI processing unit occupation duration, a resource and port occupation duration, or a CSI reference resource slot. The UE may selectively transmit the CSI report based at least in part on the determined CSI processing criteria. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques at a user equipment (UE) provide for indicating multiple beams to a base station for communications with the base station after detecting a beam failure. Using these techniques, the UE may rely on multi-beam operation to recover communications with the base station. The UE may transmit a random-access preamble indicating a first beam for communications with the base station, and the UE may transmit a control element in a data channel indicating a second beam for communications with the base station. In some cases, the messages used to carry the indications of the multiple beams may be based on a type of random-access procedure used to recover communications (e.g., a contention-based random-access (CBRA) procedure, a contention-free random-access (CFRA) procedure, or a two-step random-access procedure).

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus for multi-beam operation at a user equipment (UE). In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a beam report indicating a number of simultaneous transmit beams supported by the UE. The UE may receive a common beam indication for multiple TCI states. The UE may select at least one TCI state as an uplink component for a common beam and may communicate with a base station (BS) using the common beam. The UE may receive control signaling enabling a group-based beam reporting mode at the UE and an indication to apply a group-based beam reporting configuration for uplink beam reporting. The UE may selectively enable or disable the group-based beam reporting configuration. The UE may report multiple reference signal resource indices for multiple reference signals. The UE may transmit the reference signals using multiple spatial domain transmit filters.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive information indicating a quantity of repetitions for a physical uplink shared channel transmission that are to be transmitted in at least one time interval that includes time resources configured for downlink communication. The UE may transmit the quantity of repetitions, in respective time intervals that do not include time resources configured for downlink communication, using frequency hopping that is based at least in part on an indexing of the respective time intervals. Numerous other aspects are provided.
