    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus for assisting a user equipment (UE) with balancing quality of service (QoS) requirements (such as access latency or reliability requirements) and consumption of high priority network resources (such as for load balancing) when transmitting a random access message (RAM) in a two-step random access channel (RACH) procedure. As a result, the UE may be capable of satisfying QoS requirements for the RAM while reducing an impact of transmission of the RAM on other uplink transmissions. Furthermore, some techniques and apparatuses described herein assist a UE with prioritizing portions of the RAM in different UE operating modes, such as a dual connectivity mode, a carrier aggregation mode, or a supplemental uplink mode. Some techniques and apparatuses described herein employ cross-carrier scheduling, dynamic power sharing, or dynamic power control to achieve these and other performance improvements.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for enabling a wireless system implementing multicast transmissions to control feedback reports from multiple user equipments (UEs) and to address feedback codebook misalignment issues. In particular, aspects provide for multicast transmission grants including multiple feedback timing indicators (K1) in which the multicast transmission grants are configured to configure different UEs for multicast transmission feedback reporting in which feedback codebooks transmitted in various uplink control transmission occasions from the different UEs have a same size. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

    Abstract: Comb adaptation for interlaced frequency division multiplex (IFDM) demodulation reference signals (DMRS) is discussed. Transmission configuration for DMRS may be assigned to UEs with a coded combination of cyclic shift, OCC, and comb value. Some assigned combinations provide for a different comb value to be used for the different slots in the same subframe. Further aspects provide additional interference randomization through comb shifting, using inter-subframe hopping functions. Additionally, where retransmissions are present without uplink grant, the UE may select comb values for retransmissions based on the counter number for the retransmissions, which are different than the comb values used for the original DMRS transmissions.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for wireless communication. The techniques include a method wireless communication by a user equipment including receiving a configuration message, wherein the configuration message in part configures the UE to communicate coordinated transmissions with a plurality of transmission reception points using a coordinated transmission mode. The method further includes, receiving one or more physical downlink shared channel transmissions from a plurality of transmission reception points in accordance with the coordinated transmission mode. The method further includes, selecting a HARQ-ACK feedback mode based in part on the coordinated transmission mode. The method further includes, transmitting HARQ-ACK feedback to at least one of the plurality of transmission reception points using the selected HARQ-ACK feedback mode.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured to receive a broadcast message from a base station, the broadcast message including an indication pertaining to system information for reduced-capability UEs including UEs with a bandwidth capability below a threshold, the UE being a reduced-capability UE. The UE may determine, based on the indication in the broadcast message, whether system information for reduced-capability UEs is scheduled to be broadcast by the base station. The UE may then obtain the system information for reduced-capability UEs in accordance with the indication in the broadcast message.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may communicate with a base station as part of a wireless communications system. The UE may identify a configuration for one or more repetitions of an uplink control channel transmission, where each repetition of the one or more repetitions including a first quantity of symbols indicated by the configuration. The UE may determine a quantity of resource blocks for each repetition of the one or more repetitions. The UE may then identify that a second quantity of symbols is available to the UE to transmit a repetition of the one or more repetitions, and the second quantity of symbols may be less than the first quantity of symbols. The UE may transmit, to a base station, the repetition on the using the quantity of resource blocks for each repetition with the first quantity of symbols.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A base station and user equipment (UE) may utilize different slot structures for communications depending on the type of data to be transmitted. A base station may configure the slot structures based on a capability of a UE or operation conditions. The base station may identify a slot structure for a first slot, which may be group-specific or UE-specific, and determine a slot structure for a subsequent slot, which may be UE-specific or based on the slot structure of the first slot. A set of slot structure combinations may be identified to be used by a UE for combining the first and subsequent slots, and one combination may be selected based on a capability of the UE, an operation to be performed by the UE, an operational condition associated with the UE, or a combination thereof.
