An apparatus for wireless communication based on sidelink accumulates a value, e.g., a token value, based on an accumulation rate of a transmit beam. When the apparatus has a packet for transmission over sidelink, the apparatus determines whether to transmit the packet over the sidelink based on a current accumulation of the value. The accumulation may be based on any of a CBR, a CR, and/or a feedback rate. A base station may measure interference on an access link of the base station and transmit a side link parameter that controls accumulation of a value at a transmitting device for the transmission of sidelink communication based on the measured interference.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive one or more downlink grants while operating in accordance with a first receive state during a threshold number of transmission time intervals (TTIs). The UE may determine a weighting factor for each TTI within the threshold number of TTIs, where the determined weighting factors are based on a spectral efficiency (SPEF) of channel communications between the UE and a base station. The UE may sum a subset of the weighting factors to determine a transition determination value, and may transition from the first receive state to a second receive state based on evaluation of the transition determination value.

An apparatus and method are disclosed with some embodiments including an analog and time to digital converter (ATDC) including a receiver, the receiver for receiving an analog channel input for conversion to a digital data, the digital data having at least one bit, and a defined absolute reference time stamp, the defined absolute reference time stamp representing an absolute reference time associated with conversion of the analog channel input to the digital data and an analog-to-digital converter, the converter converting the analog channel input to the digital data.

Techniques are disclosed for an adaptive and causal random linear network coding (AC-RLNC) with forward error correction (FEC) for a communication channel with delayed feedback. An example methodology implementing the techniques includes transmitting one or more coded packets in a communication channel, determining a channel behavior of the channel, and adaptively adjusting a transmission of a subsequent coded packet in the first channel based on the determined channel behavior. The communication channel may be a point-to-point communication channel between a sender and a receiver. The channel behavior may be determined based on feedback acknowledgements provided by the receiver. The subsequent coded packet may be a random linear combination of one or more information packets.

A base station may generate first configuration information to configure a first user equipment (“UE”) to operate using a first bandwidth within a wideband carrier of a cell, generate second configuration information to configure a second UE to operate using a second bandwidth within the wideband carrier of the cell, and cause transmission of the first and second configuration information to the first and second UEs, respectively. The base station may configure the first and second UEs based upon capabilities received from each UE, respectively.

The present disclosure relates to enabling and disabling of codewords in multi-subframe grants. In particular, dynamic and subframe based enabling/disabling of codewords is enabled even if other control parameters including the resource allocation is performed for multiple subframes. For instance, signal from a scheduling entity to a scheduled entity comprises control information including the resource grant common for multiple subframes and a plurality of codewords for each subframe, and a codeword indication indicating enabling or disabling of one or more codewords for each of the multiple subframes. For each subframe it is determined whether a codeword from the plurality of codewords in said subframes is enabled or disabled according to the codeword indication and/or which codeword is enabled or disabled. The indication of enabling and disabling may alternatively be done by using modulation and coding scheme indicator values which are not associated with a particular modulation and coding scheme.

In a particular implementation, a method includes receiving, at a first base station from a second base station via a backhaul communication, a scheduling message indicating one or more beams of the second base station that are scheduled for use in upcoming transmissions. The second base station is a neighboring base station of the first base station. The method further includes transmitting, from the first base station to a user equipment (UE), the scheduling message.

Systems and methods for low complexity multi-configuration Channel State Information (CSI) reporting are provided. In some embodiments, a method of operating a wireless device in a cellular communications network to provide CSI feedback from multiple CSI reporting configurations is provided. The method includes receiving a first and second CSI reporting configuration and then reporting updated CSI in a CSI report for only one of the first CSI reporting configuration and the second CSI reporting configuration. In this way, rich CSI feedback with many ports, different codebooks, mixed beamformed and non-precoded CSI-RS configurations, etc., can be supported while requiring less computational complexity in the wireless device.

Examples described herein relate to maintaining a reliable connection between a client device and an access point (AP). Based on the data frames exchanged between the AP and a client device of a plurality of client devices communicatively coupled to the AP after the client device is connected to the AP, the AP may determine whether a client device is experiencing performance issues with respect to a wireless communication feature. In response to determining that the client device is experiencing performance issues with respect to the wireless communication feature, the AP may disable the wireless communication feature for the client device. Further, the AP may continue to exchange data frames with the client device without offering the wireless communication feature. Further, the AP continues to offer the wireless communication feature to another client device of a plurality of client devices not facing the performance issue related to the wireless communication feature.

A host/device interface coupled between a host and a storage device, and including a data interface and a Quality of Service (QoS) and configured to communicate a QoS signal with the host. The QoS interface cooperates with the data interface to selectively manage a storage QoS on the storage device. A method is provided for storing data on a data medium including receiving a Quality of Service (QoS) command; selecting a portion of the data medium on which to store a data stream; forming a stream chunk from a portion of the data stream; configuring a transducer to store the stream chunk on the data medium in response to the QoS command; and storing the data on the data medium, such that the storing conforms to a QoS command value.
