    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a configuration message that indicates a radio resource allocation and a transmission scheme for one or more first configured grant-small data transfer (CG-SDT) occasions and one or more second CG-SDT occasions. The one or more second CG-SDT occasions are at least partially nested, in time, frequency, or a combination thereof, within the one or more first CG-SDT occasions. The UE may therefore transmit, to the base station, an uplink communication within the one or more first CG-SDT occasions or the one or more second CG-SDT occasions, using the radio resource allocation and the transmission scheme. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Some techniques and apparatuses described herein permit a user equipment (UE) to transition among different power configurations, which include different values for different power parameters, that impact an amount of power consumed by the UE. In some aspects, these 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 and/or extending battery life of the UE. Furthermore, these transitions may be signaled dynamically, such as in downlink control information (DCI) and/or a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) MAC-CE, which may conserve battery power and/or network resources as compared to reconfiguring the UE using an RRC message, and which may allow the UE to be reconfigured quickly as conditions associated with the UE change.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses described herein provide a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidate hopping function that reduces collisions between PDCCH candidates, particularly between PDCCH candidates associated with reduced capability user equipment (UE). For example, the hopping function may be implemented as part of a PDCCH candidate to control channel element (CCE) function or may be applied separately from the PDCCH candidate to CCE function. The hopping function may reduce persistent collisions between PDCCH candidates by correlating the mapping behavior with a value that changes over time. Some techniques and apparatuses described herein provide signaling for configuration and activation/deactivation/modification of the hopping pattern. Thus, collisions between PDCCH candidates are reduced, thereby conserving computing resources and wireless communication resources. Furthermore, the reduction of collisions may improve performance of UEs with reduced PDCCH capabilities, such as reduced-capability UEs. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, techniques for an enhanced paging procedure. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes detecting, during a paging occasion (PO), at least one downlink control information (DCI) that indicates a paging message and additional downlink signals and using the additional downlink signals to enhance processing of the paging message.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for random access channel (RACH) occasion assignment. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving, from a base station (BS), a plurality of synchronization signal blocks (SSBs), each SSB associated with a different transmit beam of the BS. The method further includes transmitting a random-access preamble on a first RACH occasion associated with a first SSB of the plurality of SSBs, wherein the first RACH occasion is one of a plurality of RACH occasions associated with the plurality of SSBs, wherein the first SSB is associated with a first number of the plurality of RACH occasions and a second SSB of the plurality of SSBs is associated with a second number of the plurality of RACH occasions, wherein the first number is different than the second number.

    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.
