    Abstract: Techniques and apparatus for a control plane design for bandwidth part (BWP) in new radio (NR) are provided. One technique includes sending information with an indication of a BWP capability of a user equipment (UE) to a base station (BS). A configuration from the BS indicating a set of BWPs available to use for communication is received in response to the indication. Communications are performed on at least one of the set of BWPs. Another technique includes receiving information having an indication of a BWP capability of the UE. A configuration indicating a set of BWPs available for the UE to use for communication is determined. The configuration is sent to the UE.

    Abstract: In one aspect, a method of wireless communication includes receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a preconfigured uplink resource (PUR) configuration message indicating a PUR configuration for small data transmissions. The method also includes determining, by the UE, a PUR configuration release trigger for the PUR configuration. The method further includes receiving, by the UE, a PUR configuration release message configured to release the PUR configuration. In another aspect, a method of wireless communication includes transmitting, by a network entity, a preconfigured uplink resource (PUR) configuration message indicating a PUR configuration for small data transmissions. The method also includes determining, by the network entity, a PUR configuration release trigger for the PUR configuration. The method further includes transmitting, by the network entity, a PUR configuration release message configured to release the PUR configuration. Other aspects are described and claimed.

    Abstract: An UE transmits at least one UE configuration parameter to a base station comprising at least one preferred parameter for a UE configuration, e.g., in addition to a preferred setting for a delay budget report. The UE then receives a configuration from the base station based, at least in part, on the at least one UE configuration parameter transmitted to the base station. Additionally, a base station receives the at least one UE configuration parameter from a UE comprising at least one preferred parameter for a UE configuration, e.g., in addition to a preferred setting for a delay budget report. The base station then configures the UE using the at least one UE configuration parameter received from the UE.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) to determine a time gap between receiving a paging early indication (PEI) and receiving a paging message based on a link quality of the UE. The UE may determine the time gap based on a number of reference signals the UE may measure after receiving the PEI to obtain channel information for accurately decoding a forthcoming paging message and a periodicity of the reference signals. The UE may transmit UE assistance information (UAI) to the base station during an active state to indicate the time gap. The UE may receive a configuration message from the base station indicating a configured time gap for the UE based on the UAI. The UE may receive the PEI and monitor a paging occasion for the paging message according to the configured time gap.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may perform a random access channel (RACH) procedure with a base station. The UE may receive a message configuring a RACH preamble occasion and an uplink data occasion. The message may be a radio resource control (RRC) message or a system information (SI) message. In some cases, the UE may determine if the RACH preamble occasion, the uplink data occasion, or both are restricted for cancellation based on the message. The UE may determine when to monitor a downlink control channel for dynamic scheduling based on determining which occasions are restricted for cancellation and may transmit a RACH message based on monitoring—or not monitoring—the downlink control channel for dynamic scheduling preempting a RACH occasion. In some other cases, a base station may schedule transmissions to not overlap with configured RACH occasions.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a mode for processing a transport block from a base station. The UE may receive a transport block from the base station. In some examples, the transport block may include one or more code blocks in a first code block group and one or more code blocks in a second code block group and may decode the one or more code blocks in the first code block group of the transport block. In some examples, the UE may deliver, to the medium access control (MAC) layer of the UE and based on the mode for processing the transport block, the one or more decoded code blocks in the first code block group before completing the decoding of the second code block group.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured to receive first system information from a base station, the first system information being for reduced-capability UEs including UEs with a bandwidth capability below a threshold, the UE being a reduced-capability UE. The UE may evaluate the first system information for a dedicated field that includes an indicator that additional system information for reduced-capability UEs is to be received in response to on-demand requests. Subsequently, the UE may obtain the additional system information for reduced-capability UEs in accordance with information included in either the dedicated field when the dedicated field is included in the first system information or in a configuration information element of the first system information when the dedicated field is absent from the first system information.
