    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of at least one of: one or more anchor cells associated with a target cell, or one or more target cells, including the target cell, associated with an anchor cell included in the one or more anchor cells. The UE may transmit, to the anchor cell, an indication of the target cell and an indication of a target beam index associated with the target cell as part of an initial access procedure with the anchor cell. The UE may establish a connection with the target cell based at least in part on performing the initial access procedure with the anchor cell. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: A method for wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE) includes transmitting, to a core network, a request for a preferred assignment of a paging occasion subgroup. The method also includes receiving, from the core network, a response indicating whether the request is granted. The method further includes monitoring a first paging occasion within a first paging frame associated with the paging occasion subgroup based on the response indicating the request is granted.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The method includes receiving a network access control broadcast including access control criteria associated with connecting to a base station, determining an access category associated with the UE and an access identity of the UE associated with the access category, where the access category of the UE is specific to a reduced capability classification of the UE, and selectively performing a random access procedure to connect to the base station in accordance with the access control criteria, the access identity of the UE, and the access category associated with the UE.

    Abstract: Techniques described provide dependent procedure operation configured for avoiding or mitigating one or more aspect of the impact on the dependent procedure of cancelling an uplink transmission. One or more attributes (e.g., a transmission indication attribute) associated with a cancelled uplink transmission may be designated for dependent procedure operation, such as for indicating whether the cancelled uplink transmission is considered either as having been transmitted or not having been transmitted. The one or more attributes associated with a cancelled uplink transmission designated for dependent procedure operation may be based upon whether the cancelling the first uplink transmission is a fast cancellation or is a slow cancellation. The designation of a transmission indication attribute for dependent procedure operation may correspond to the dependent procedure and/or its operation. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications systems may support enhanced scheduling request configurations. A user equipment (UE) may obtain, at a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer of the UE, information associated with a data packet for transmission by the UE. The UE may transmit a scheduling request that indicates information regarding an elapsed time period since the information associated with the data packet was obtained at the PDCP layer of the UE, or whether the data packet is a final packet of a set of data packets, or both. A network entity may receive the scheduling request and determine scheduling information for uplink communications by the UE based on the information regarding the elapsed time period, or whether the data packet is the final data packet, or both. The network entity may transmit the scheduling information to the UE.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a system information message including first system information for the UE; receive, after receiving the system information message, a system information update message indicating a change to at least a portion of the first system information; determine whether the change applies to one or more capabilities of the UE; and selectively acquire second system information based at least in part on whether the change applies to the one or more capabilities of the UE. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A first user equipment (UE) may receive a control message that includes an indication to mute communications between the first UE and a second UE. The indication may be applicable to at least one communication link between the first UE and the second UE. The indication may include an identifier of the first UE, an identifier of the second UE, or an identifier of the at least one communication link. The first UE may receive the indication based on a power status of the first UE, a power status of the second UE, a reliability metric associated with the at least one communication link, or an interference metric associated with a network entity. Accordingly, the first UE may determine that the at least one communication link is muted for a time duration based on the indication.

    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide apparatus, methods, processing systems, and computer readable mediums for configuring DRX parameters for groups of serving cells operating in different frequency bands. An example method generally includes receiving first discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration parameters for communications with a first group of cells and second DRX configuration parameters for communications with a second group of cells, wherein the first DRX configuration parameters and the second DRX configuration parameters share common starting time parameters; monitoring for communications by cells operating in first frequency resources based on the first DRX configuration parameters; and monitoring for communications by cells operating in second frequency resources based on the second DRX configuration parameters.
