Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit to a base station (BS), information indicating a medium access control (MAC) security capability of the UE. The UE may receive from the BS, a communication that includes an indication of a MAC security configuration for communications between the UE and the BS. The indication of the MAC security configuration may be based at least in part on the MAC security capability of the UE. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for configuring discontinuous reception (DRX) cycles within a DRX time period at a user equipment (UE). DRX configurations may provide that different DRX cycles have non-uniform cycle durations within the DRX time period. Such non-uniform cycle durations may provide DRX ON-durations that are aligned with a periodicity of downlink traffic to the UE in which the downlink traffic may be unaligned with timing boundaries used for wireless communications between the UE and a base station, such as slot boundaries or symbol boundaries.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for sending uplink control information. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving an uplink grant for transmission on a plurality of physical uplink shared channels (PUSCHs), the plurality of PUSCHs being located on different component carriers (CCs); identifying one or more PUSCHs of the plurality of PUSCHs on which uplink control information (UCI) can be transmitted in a slot; assigning PUSCH data to the one or more identified PUSCHs on which the UCI can be transmitted before assigning PUSCH data to remaining PUSCHs of the plurality of PUSCHs; and transmitting the UCI and the PUSCH data in the slot on the assigned PUSCHs.

Abstract: Generally, the described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) generating a scheduling request (SR) for a set of data for an uplink transmission from the UE to a base station. The UE may determine whether the SR for the set of data is associated with a grant-free configuration for the UE. The grant-free configuration may indicate a set of time-frequency resources that the UE may use to transmit the set of data. The UE may transmit to the base station an indication of whether the SR is associated with the grant-free configuration. If the SR is associated with a grant-free configuration for the UE, the UE may use the corresponding resources to transmit the set of data to the base station, and the base station may then decode the data based on having received the indication of the resources by way of the grant-free configuration.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for wireless communication. In one aspect, a method may be performed by a wireless device such as a user equipment (UE) and generally includes: receiving at least one downlink (DL) signal from one or more base stations or transmitting at least one uplink (UL) positioning reference signal (PRS), the received at least one DL signal comprising: at least one DL PRS, at least one synchronization signal block (SSB), at least one system information block (SIB), at least one other reference signal comprising a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS), or a combination thereof, wherein at least one measurement is performed based, at least in part, on the received at least one DL signal or the transmitted at least one UL PRS; and performing at least one adjustment for random access based, at least in part, on the at least one measurement.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may initiate a random access channel (RACH) procedure using a first beam associated with a base station (BS). The UE may transmit, to the BS and during the RACH procedure, an uplink control information (UCI) communication that indexes into a resource set of beams to indicate one or more second beams associated with the BS. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may determine that processing or transmission associated with a scheduling request is preempted, and perform one or more scheduling request preemption actions, associated with the scheduling request, based at least in part on determining that the processing or transmission is preempted. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may provide feedback regarding beam pairs used for wake-up signal (WUS) transmissions via uplink resources configured for WUS-based beam management feedback. A correspondence between WUSs and uplink resources for feedback may be semi-statically configured via radio resource control (RRC) signaling, may be dynamically indicated by each WUS, etc. In some examples, uplink resources for different UEs may be distinctive (e.g., UE-specific). In some cases, each beam used to transmit the wake-up message (e.g., each WUS) may have separate uplink resources, or all beams may share the same uplink resource (e.g., or some combination of uplink resources). As such, the UE and base station may identify one or more beams of sufficient quality (e.g., for control channel transmissions during a discontinuous reception (DRX) on-duration) based on the feedback (e.g., beam report) conveyed by the UE via the configured uplink resources for WUS-based fast beam management techniques.

Abstract: Techniques to enable and provide beam failure recovery (BFR) operation for discontinuous reception (DRX) modes with wakeup signal (WUS) monitoring are described. DRX mode operation may be altered based on a BFR procedure implemented by a user equipment (UE). DRX mode operation may be altered for allowing a UE to start a DRX active time after transmitting a BFR request signal of a BFR procedure. Additionally or alternatively, DRX mode operation may be altered for allowing a UE to start an ON duration timer for a next DRX cycle after transmitting a BFR request signal of a BFR procedure. In another example, DRX mode operation may be altered for allowing a UE to monitor a BFR search space set regardless of DRX status, after transmitting a BFR request signal for a BFR procedure. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
