Methods and apparatus in a fifth-generation wireless communications, including an example method, in a wireless device, that includes receiving a downlink signal comprising an uplink access configuration index, using the uplink access configuration index to identify an uplink access configuration from among a predetermined plurality of uplink access configurations, and transmitting to the wireless communications network according to the identified uplink access configuration. The example method further includes, in the same wireless device, receiving, in a first subframe, a first Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM) transmission formatted according to a first numerology and receiving, in a second subframe, a second OFDM transmission formatted according to a second numerology, the second numerology differing from the first numerology. Variants of this method, corresponding apparatuses, and corresponding network-side methods and apparatuses are also disclosed.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine whether an uplink communication for a first radio access technology (RAT) has been dynamically scheduled or semi-statically configured, wherein the UE is in a dual connectivity mode using the first RAT and a second RAT. The UE may identify an uplink subframe for transmission of the uplink communication based at least in part on whether the uplink communication has been dynamically scheduled or semi-statically configured, and based at least in part on a downlink-reference uplink-downlink configuration. The UE may transmit the uplink communication in the identified uplink subframe. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Techniques are disclosed for adjusting a transmission frequency of a physiological monitoring unit, which includes a capture unit and a receiver unit. The capture unit and the receiver unit are wirelessly connected together and are configured to exchange data on the transmission frequency by means of a programming unit.
