    Abstract: In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) determines a resource configuration and a transmit power for a physical random access channel (PRACH) preamble sequence and/or a configuration and a transmit power for a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) resource unit (PRU) based on positioning information of the UE relative to the base station, the speed of the UE relative to the base station, and/or a radio resource control (RRC) state of the UE, transmits, to the base station, a message comprising the PRACH preamble sequence on a PRACH occasion and a payload on a PRU occasion based on the determined resource configuration and transmit power for the PRACH preamble sequence and/or the determined resource configuration and transmit power for the PRU, and receives, from the base station, a second message comprising information on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and a payload on a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH).

    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for channel sounding for wireless communications. Some implementations more specifically relate to scheduling sounding reference signal (SRS) resource sets for wireless devices having more than 4 receive (RX) antenna ports. In some implementations, a base station may determine an antenna switching capability of a user equipment (UE). The antenna switching capability indicates a number of RX antenna ports of the UE. The base station schedules a number of SRS resource sets for the UE based at least in part on the number of RX antenna ports in excess of four. For example, the number of RX antenna ports may be equal to 8. As another example, the number of RX antenna ports may be equal to 6. The base station further receives, from the UE, uplink transmissions of one or more SRS resources for each of the scheduled SRS resource sets.
