Disclosed are methods and systems for using softbit decoding techniques in retransmission-based networks for error concealment of packets corrupted by bit-errors. The softbit decoding techniques derive softbit information from multiple corrupted hardbits of the retransmitted packet to aid a softbit decoder in decoding the packet. The approach realizes improved error concealment capability while maintaining a simple system architecture. A retransmission softbit module is inserted between a channel decoder used for channel-decoding and demodulating a compressed packet and the softbit decoder. The retransmission softbit module may derive an accumulated softbit packet from multiple corrupted copies of the packet received from the channel decoder, make bit decisions based on the accumulated softbit packet, and derive reliability information for the bit decisions. The bit decisions may be a majority decision packet (MDP) created using a majority voting scheme. The reliability information and the MDP may be provided to the softbit decoder for decoding.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for configuring a user equipment (UE) for reference signal measurement while operating according to a discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration. The DRX configuration may include periodic DRX ON-durations, during which the UE is to be in an active mode for reception and transmission of signals, and between which the UE may transition to a low-power inactive mode. One or more reference signals may be scheduled for transmission by the base station during periods in which the UE may be in the inactive mode, and the UE may skip monitoring one or more of the reference signals while in the inactive mode. For one or more reference signal occasions, the UE may determine, based at least in part on a change in a channel quality metric, to be in a limited active mode in order to measure the reference signal.
