Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications system may support sidelink communications between one or more sidelink user equipment (UE). A sidelink UE may receive control signaling such as sidelink control information that indicates a set of resources available for reservation by the UE from a sidelink resource pool. Based on decoding the sidelink control information, the UE may determine that a resource overlap is to occur between scheduled transmissions in a sidelink resource. Upon identifying the resource overlap, the UE may transmit a message such as a negative acknowledgement message. By transmitting the message, the UE may prompt retransmission from one or more UEs involved in the resource overlap, which may reduce latency and increase reliability for sidelink data in the wireless communications system.

Provided are a method for performing wireless communication by a first device, and an apparatus for supporting same. The method may comprise: determining one or more logical channels of interest from among a plurality of logical channels; based on sidelink (SL) hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback being enabled for at least one logical channel among the one or more logical channels of interest, allocating N SL processes, from among a plurality of SL processes for transmitting a plurality of medium access control protocol data units (MAC PDUs), to a SL resource in which a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) resource is configured; and performing HARQ feedback-based SL communication based on the N SL processes, wherein N is a positive integer.

A network device includes memory with permanent storage. A request for information is received from a user device. In response to determining that an erasure encoded version of the requested information is not stored in the memory of the network device, the requested information is requested to be transmitted from a storage external to the network device and partially received. In response to determining that an amount of the partially received requested information does not satisfy an erasure encoding threshold, it is determined whether the erasure encoding threshold can be satisfied within a time duration. If so, the partially received requested information is erasure encoded, stored in the permanent storage, and transmitted. If not, the requested information is requested to be retransmitted from the storage external to the network device.

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for sidelink data packet acknowledgment. One method (700) includes receiving (702) an indicator in sidelink control information. The method (700) includes comparing (704) a current value of the indicator to a last known value of the indicator. The method (700) includes, in response to the current value not matching the last known value: flushing (706) a soft buffer; transferring a data packet corresponding to the indicator into the soft buffer; attempting to decode the data packet; in response to successfully decoding the data packet, performing an acknowledgment action; and, in response to unsuccessfully decoding the data packet, performing a non-acknowledgment action.

A method and apparatus for sending uplink control information by a multi-mode wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) capable of operating on multiple component carriers of a plurality of radio access technologies (RATs) for multi-RAT operation are disclosed. The WTRU may generate uplink control information (UCI) pertaining to a first RAT and a second RAT, wherein the UCI may include a first plurality of hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgements (HARQ-ACKs) pertaining to a plurality of downlink (DL) transmissions of the first RAT and a second plurality of HARQ-ACKs pertaining to a plurality of DL transmissions of the second RAT. The WTRU may multiplex at least part of the generated UCI pertaining to the first RAT and at least part of the generated UCI pertaining to the second RAT onto a physical channel on a component carrier of the second RAT.

The first wireless transceiver establishes a bidirectional secondary wireless link with the audio source for receiving and acknowledging receipt of the audio information. The first and second wireless transceivers communicate with each other via a primary wireless link. A wireless audio system including an audio source and first and second wireless transceivers. The first and second wireless transceivers communicate via a primary wireless link. The audio source communicates audio information to the first wireless transceiver via a secondary wireless link which is configured according to a standard wireless protocol. The first wireless transceiver is configured to acknowledge successful reception of audio information via the secondary wireless link. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

A wireless data communication system and method are illustrated. The wireless data communication system has a central communication device and multiple communication devices, wherein the communication devices are able to communicate with the central communication device. The central communication device requests one of the communication devices to transmit one or more packets to the central communication device; if the central communication device determines at least one of the packets of the communication device is lost during transmission, and another one of the communication devices receives the one or more lost packets of the communication device, the other one communication device retransmits the one or more lost packets of the communication device to the central communication device after being requested by the central communication device. Thereby, the retransmission efficiency of packet loss can be enhanced and the transmission efficiency of radio frequency can be improved.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may determine a dropping rule relating to: a first triggering communication, of a first transmit receive point (TRP), that triggers a first timeline for a first subsequent communication of the first TRP, and a second triggering communication, of a second TRP, that triggers a second timeline for a second subsequent communication of the second TRP, wherein the dropping rule indicates one or more communications to be dropped when the first triggering communication starts after a start of the second triggering communication and the first subsequent communication starts before a start of the second subsequent communication; and drop the one or more communications based at least in part on the dropping rule. Numerous other aspects are provided.

A sidelink communication method considering height information and an apparatus therefor are provided. A method of transmitting data by a first user equipment (UE) to a second UE in a wireless communication system includes transmitting a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH) including first sidelink control information (SCI) to the second UE, transmitting a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) including second SCI related to the first SCI to the second UE, and receiving a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) for the PSSCH from the second UE. The second SCI includes control information about a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) operation, and the control information about the HARQ operation includes control information about a height.

In the method, a network side device selects one group of values from at least two preset groups of values for a transmission parameter set. The network side device sends the selected group of values. A terminal sends communication data based on the group of values of the at least two groups of values of the transmission parameter set.
