Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive control signaling from a network entity, such as radio resource control (RRC) signaling, indicating for the UE to select a mixed-waveform modulation and coding scheme (MCS) table. The UE may select the MCS table in accordance with the signaling. The network entity may send additional control signaling to the UE indicating for the UE to use one or more of the waveforms in the mixed-waveform MCS table for scheduled data. For example, the UE may transmit the scheduled data, receive the scheduled data, or both in accordance with the one or more waveforms indicated in the additional control signaling.

As part of carrier assignment and configuration for multicarrier wireless communications, a single uplink (UL) primary carrier may provide control information for multiple concurrent downlink (DL) carriers. Optionally, control information for each DL carrier may be transmitted over paired UL carriers. Carrier switching of UL and/or DL carriers, including primary and anchor carriers, may occur during normal operation or during handover, and may occur in only the UL or only the DL direction. A unidirectional handover is performed when only an UL carrier or only a DL carrier is switched as part of a handover. Switching of UL and/or DL carriers may be from one component carrier or a subset of carriers to another component carrier, another subset of carriers, or all carriers in the same direction.

A method and apparatus, and a storage medium for data transmission are provided. The method may be applied to a terminal. The terminal may receive a Media Access Control (MAC) signaling sent from a base station. The terminal may receive Downlink Control Information (DCI) sent from a base station. The terminal may search in a preset mapping corresponding to n antenna panels for beam indication information corresponding to a beam indication code word as target beam indication information respectively corresponding to the n antenna panels. The terminal may determine, according to the target beam indication information corresponding to a target antenna panel, a corresponding target beam when data transmission is performed by using the target antenna panel. The terminal may perform data transmission with the base station by using the target beam corresponding to the target antenna panel.

Various embodiments relate to a method of multi-link operation between two multi-link devices (MLDs) where at least one MLD is a non-simultaneous transmit receive (NSTR) MLD that supports enhanced multi-link radio operation, including: operating, by the NSTR MLD, in a first operating mode, wherein the first operating mode is one of multi-link radio mode or enhanced multi-link radio mode; switching, by the NSTR MLD, between the first operating mode and a second operating mode, wherein the second operating mode is the multi-link radio mode when the first operating mode is the enhanced multi-link radio mode and the second operating mode is the enhanced multi-link radio mode when the first operating mode is the multi-link radio mode; announcing the operation capability by the NSTR MLD; and announcing the operating parameters by the NSTR MLD.

The apparatus may be a UE configured to transmit, to a base station, an indication of a UE capability associated with a contiguous FD pilot; receive, from the base station, an indication of an allocation of one or more frequency sub-bands for a reception of one or more contiguous FD pilots; and receive, from the base station, the one or more contiguous FD pilots via the one or more frequency sub-bands. The apparatus may be a configured to receive, from a UE, an indication of a UE capability associated with a contiguous FD pilot; select one or more frequency sub-bands for a transmission of a contiguous FD pilot; transmit, to the UE, an indication of an allocation of the one or more frequency sub-bands for the transmission of the contiguous FD pilot; and transmit, to the UE, the contiguous FD pilot via the one or more frequency sub-bands.

A wireless device receives, during a discontinuous reception (DRX) active time of a DRX operation of the wireless device, a response to a message that comprises a preamble and a transport block. The DRX active time is determined based on a time window that starts at least one symbol after a transmission occasion of the transport block.

A method of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetition performed by a user equipment (UE) is disclosed. The method comprises receiving, from a base station (BS), a configuration for a first PUSCH transmission, in case a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message including information to configure a slot-based repetition operation for the first PUSCH transmission is received from the BS, not receiving, from the BS, an RRC message including information to configure a non-slot based repetition operation for a second PUSCH transmission during the first PUSCH transmission with the slot-based repetition operation, and in case an RRC message including information to configure a non-slot based repetition operation for the second PUSCH transmission is received from the BS, not receiving, from BS, an RRC message including information to configure a slot-based repetition operation for the first PUSCH transmission during the second PUSCH transmission with the non-slot based repetition operation.

Provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure are a sidelink transmission method and a terminal. The sidelink transmission method includes receiving SCI through a PSCCH of a sidelink. The SCI includes an information field, and the information field is used to indicate physical layer information of the sidelink.

A method is described for generating and transmitting a frame by a station. The method includes generating a frame that includes a signaling field and a data field, wherein the signaling field includes a midamble indication that indicates a midamble periodicity used in the data field of the frame and wirelessly transmitting the frame to a recipient.

Optionally, control information for each DL carrier may be transmitted over paired UL carriers.
