    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques and apparatus for efficient support of variable bit rate (VBR) voice traffic on LTE uplink. In an aspect, a base station may periodically schedule transmission resources for use by a user equipment (UE) for transmitting data on a logical channel, wherein the periodically scheduling grants the UE a fixed first transport block (TB) size of transmission resources at regular intervals, receive an indication from the UE of an amount of data for transmission on the logical channel, and adjust the fixed first TB size of the periodically scheduled transmission resources to a fixed second TB size based on the indicated amount of data. In another aspect, a base station may configure a UE to enable scheduling request masking (SR-masking) on a logical channel, and configure the UE with a threshold amount of data for the logical channel to dynamically disable SR-masking on the logical channel. In another aspect, a UE may receive a configuration to enable scheduling request (SR) masking (SR-masking) on a logical channel, receive a configuration of a threshold amount of data for the logical channel to dynamically disable SR-masking on the logical channel, and decide whether to transmit an SR based on the amount of data to transmit and the threshold amount.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A wireless device may identify multiple regions within a subframe, such as one or more uplink regions, one or more downlink regions, and a guard region. The wireless device may identify and communicate during each region based on a timing relationship between the downlink region and the uplink region. For example, the device may expect hybrid automated repeat request (HARQ) feedback for one downlink region in the same subframe based on the proximity to the next uplink region. Another downlink region may not have HARQ feedback in the same subframe. Similarly, uplink regions may or may not be scheduled within the same subframe.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a downlink transmission from a base station, transmit a first stage of feedback for the downlink transmission, identify a condition associated with the downlink transmission, and determine whether to transmit a second stage of feedback for the downlink transmission based at least in part on the identified condition associated with the downlink transmission. The second stage of feedback for the downlink transmission may be transmitted (or not transmitted) based at least in part on the identified condition associated with the downlink transmission.

    Abstract: Wireless resource allocation and buffer status reporting may be based on packet size, and a base station may allocate resources for communications with a user equipment (UE) to provide resources for an integer number of packets. For downlink communications from a base station to a UE, a scheduler may allocate resources to transmit an integer number of packets, based on packet size and a number of packets to be transmitted. For uplink communications, a UE may transmit a buffer status report (BSR) that indicates packet size and a number of packets to be transmitted. A base station may allocate uplink resources to the UE that correspond to an integer number of packets. Resources may be allocated that have a variable length transmission time interval (TTI) that may be adjusted, alone or in combination with other resources (e.g., frequency resources), to provide for transmission of an integer number of packets.

    Abstract: Mitigation of inter-base station resynchronization loss in wireless networks including contention-based shared frequency spectrum is discussed. Aspects of such mitigation provide for base stations entering into an idle mode when a transmission opportunity occurs in a radio frame of the next resynchronization occasion. Additional aspects provide for the base station to signal a flexible listen before talk (LBT) frame length to the user equipment (UE), either with or without explicit signaling of the downlink-uplink division. Further aspects provide for the base station to signal a reset indication to UEs that will prompt the UEs to monitor for downlink channel reserving signals prior to the current LBT frame ending by the resynchronization occasion.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for communication are described. Fast error recovery procedures may be employed that decrease latency for radio link control (RLC) data packet recovery during low latency operations. A device may detect a failed low latency transmission, and may activate a timer associated with the failed transmission. The device may generate a failure report if failed transmissions are not rescheduled; for example, if the timer expires before rescheduling. The failure report may be sent to an RLC entity of the device or to a medium access control (MAC) layer entity of the scheduler. In some cases, the device may maintain a list of non-terminated transmissions for high priority bearers.
