Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) may skip performance of base station identity code (BSIC) confirm and reconfirm procedure for a neighbor cell to conserve UE battery power. In such instances, the UE compares a serving cell signal metric to a dynamic threshold. The BSIC confirm and reconfirm procedure for the neighbor cell may be skipped when the serving cell signal metric is above the dynamic threshold.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) may reduce reselection delays when the UE is in the idle mode. In such instances, the UE adaptively adjusts a cell reselection timer based at least in part on the availability of a downlink time slot resource. The adjustment of the cell reselection timer may be based at least in part on the availability of the downlink time slot resources. The cell reselection timer is adjusted (e.g., shortened or scaled down) when the downlink time slot resources are unavailable to the UE.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The method includes transmitting, to a base station based on a parameter of a configuration of the UE, a first HARQ feedback configuration or a request to modify the configuration of the UE, or both, the configuration of the UE including a carrier aggregation configuration and receiving, from the base station based on transmitting the first HARQ feedback configuration or request to modify the configuration of the UE, or both, a second HARQ feedback configuration or reconfiguration.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for implementing a channel state information (CSI) measurement and reporting protocol for dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) in a wireless communication network. In some aspects, a BS may transmit control messages periodically and aperiodically that configure a UE to perform signal quality measurements and transmit signal quality reports. When the UE receives a periodic control message, the UE may perform signal quality measurements on both a multimedia broadcast single frequency network (MBSFN) subframe and a non-MBSFN subframe of a frame received from the BS. When the UE receives an aperiodic control message, the UE may perform a signal quality measurement on either a MBSFN subframe or a non-MBSFN subframe. The UE may generate and transmit signal quality reports to the BS periodically and aperiodically corresponding to the received periodic and aperiodic control messages, respectively.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a first communication that includes information to facilitate selection and/or switching of carrier aggregation or multi-connectivity for a first cell group and a second cell group. The UE may receive, based at least in part on transmitting the first communication, a second communication that configures and/or switches carrier aggregation or multi-connectivity for the first cell group and the second cell group. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In a wireless communications system, a user equipment (UE) may determine a preference of the UE for a termination point between a core network and a radio access network (RAN), the core network and the RAN supporting communications for the UE via at least one or a first cell and a second cell each associated with a multi-connectivity mode of the UE. The UE may transmit, to a base station, an indication of the preference of the UE for the termination point. In some cases, the base station may determine the termination point based on receiving the indication of the preference of the UE, and the base station may transmit a message indicating a configuration for the multi-connectivity mode to the UE, the configuration indicating the determined termination point.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a feedback error configuration indicating an error threshold associated with a feedback error type of a set of feedback error types, and a time window for feedback error detection per frequency band combination. The UE may detect one or multiple feedback errors for the feedback error type within the time window, and determine that a number of the one or multiple feedback errors for the feedback error type exceeds the error threshold. The UE may transmit a feedback error indication based on the determination that the number of the detected one or multiple feedback errors exceeds the error threshold. The feedback error indication may include an indication of the one or multiple feedback errors and the feedback error type associated with the one or multiple feedback errors.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may signal, to a base station, an indication that fast sleep is supported by the UE with regard to an inter-slot scheduling configuration or a non-self-contained slot configuration; and receive, based at least in part on signaling the indication that the fast sleep is supported by the UE, signaling indicating the inter-slot scheduling configuration or the non-self-contained slot configuration for the fast sleep, wherein the fast sleep is between at least one of a data grant and a corresponding data communication for the inter-slot scheduling, or a data communication and acknowledgment (ACK)/negative ACK (NACK) feedback regarding the data communication for the non-self-contained slot configuration. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) receives a circuit switched page from a first radio access technology (RAT) and a command instructing the UE to redirect to a second RAT. The command indicates a designated location area identity of the second RAT. The UE detects base stations of the second RAT and determines whether a strongest base station is in an area identified by the designated location area identity. The UE connects to the strongest base station based on the determining. When the designated location area identity is a permitted location area, the UE connects to the strongest base station when the location of the strongest base station is included in the permitted location area. When the designated location area identity is a prohibited location area, the UE connects to the strongest base station when the location of the strongest base station is not included in the prohibited location area.
