    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for a base station transmitting to a user equipment (UE) a partial bandwidth configuration for uplink transmissions, where the partial bandwidth configuration may indicate a channel interlace and a portion of a channel bandwidth, for example, for autonomous uplink (AUL) transmissions. The base station may also transmit to the UE an AUL configuration including a group identifier. The UE may determine a starting offset with respect to an AUL subframe for a partial bandwidth transmission based on the group identifier. In some cases, different UEs may be grouped into groups of UEs allocated non-overlapping resources, and UEs allocated overlapping resources may have different starting offsets to begin transmitting. According to the determined starting offset, the UE may perform the partial bandwidth transmission over the channel interlace and the portion of the channel bandwidth.

    Abstract: A method of wireless communication includes determining, by a user equipment (UE) in response to a failed transmission to the UE by a base station, to transmit a negative acknowledgment (NACK). The method additionally includes transmitting, by the UE to the base station, the NACK in an acknowledgement (ACK) resource previously allocated by the base station, and triggering at least one action, by the UE in response to at least one of the determination to transmit the NACK or the transmission of the NACK. The at least one action improves retransmission success rate. In another aspect, a method of wireless communication includes receiving, by a base station from a UE, a NACK in an ACK resource previously allocated by the base station, and triggering at least one action, by the base station in response to the receipt of the NACK. The at least one action improves retransmission success rate.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit, via an autonomous uplink communication, one or more transport blocks to a base station. Each transport block may include a plurality of code block groups (CBGs). The base station may provide CBG-level feedback to the UE based at least in part on the autonomous uplink communication. In some examples, the base station may provide the CBG-level feedback in one or more downlink feedback information (DFI) packets. In some other examples, the base station may provide the CBG-level feedback via one or more uplink transmission grants. The UE may retransmit one or more CBGs from the autonomous uplink communication based at least in part on the DFI packets or uplink transmission grants.

    Abstract: Timing considerations for autonomous uplink (AUL) downlink feedback information (AUL-DFI) is disclosed. With the flexible timeline for new radio (NR) operations, signaling of the processing timeline may be used for the served user equipments (UEs) to properly interpret the acknowledgement information in the AUL-DFI. The UE receives a signal identifying a minimum processing time of the serving base station to process AUL. Using the knowledge of the minimum processing time, the UE determines which of the outstanding AUL transmissions are accurately addressed in the AUL-DFI and which are still pending. Additional signaling to the UE may instruct the UE when to implement any changes to transmission parameters also signaled via the AUL-DFI. Slots prior to the indicated change time will be transmitted using the current parameters, while slots after the indicated time will use the updated parameters from the AUL-DFI.

    Abstract: Base station contention window update procedures with autonomous uplink (AUL) in a transmission opportunity (TxOP) is discussed. After acquiring a channel and scheduling the TxOP, a base station may transmit control signals to manage communications with served user equipments (UEs). Management of AUL communications in addition to update of the contention window may be determined based on whether the base station has either or both downlink data and scheduled uplink (SUL) transmissions scheduled for the TxOP. Where both downlink and SUL are scheduled, AUL transmissions are allowed, but update of the contention window uses feedback based on the downlink transmissions. Where SUL are scheduled, but no downlink data, AUL are allowed and the contention window is updated using performance information on the uplink transmissions. Finally, where neither data nor SUL are scheduled, the base station deactivate any AUL resources for the TxOP and will refrain from updating the contention window.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides techniques for configuring the utilization of request-to-send/clear-to-send (RTS/CTS) protocol procedures based on varying conditions at the STA. For example, an AP may identify one or more conditions, when satisfied, may trigger the STA to either enable or disable uplink (UL) transmissions associated with a RTS/CTS protocol procedure. In some aspects, an AP may determine a transmit opportunity (TXOP) threshold for an STA and may determine whether to broadcast a message having the TXOP threshold to multiple STAs including the STA or unicast the message to the STA. An STA may receive a message from an AP having a TXOP threshold and may replace, based on an indication in the received message, a current TXOP threshold in the STA with the TXOP threshold in the received message. The STA may transmit an UL RTS frame in response to a determination that a planned TXOP duration satisfies the TXOP threshold.
