20230262713 · 2023-08-17 ·

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications that support physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) carrying hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ-A) for multiple transmission reception point (multi-TRP) environments with non-ideal backhaul links are described. A user equipment (UE) may support multiple communication links with TRPs and receive distinct physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) messages that include downlink control information (DCI). The DCI may include a timing or resource indication index values for physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission. Based on the index values, the UE may differentiate the received DCI indications. The UE may then schedule PUCCH transmissions, including hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) payloads, directed to the TRPs. In some examples, the scheduling may include mapping the PUCCH transmissions to resources or resource groups in configured PUCCH resource set. The UE may then transmit the PUCCH messages via one or more determined beams based on the indication index values.

Interference mitigation for full-duplex communication

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described to enable base station and a user equipment (UE) to mitigate interference when using full-duplex communications. For example, a base station communicating with a UE via full-duplex communications may indicate for the UE to align the time of its uplink transmissions with the time the UE receives downlink transmissions. Additionally or alternatively, the base station may indicate a timing alignment window for the UE, where the window may consist of an allowed time period the UE may use to select a time to begin uplink transmissions. In some examples, the base station may select a cyclic prefix for full-duplex communications, where the cyclic prefix may be longer than a cyclic prefix used for other communications. Further, the base station may select uplink frequency and downlink frequency bands separated by a defined guard band for full-duplex communications.

SLOT FORMAT INDICATOR (SFI) ENHANCEMENT FOR SUB-BAND FULL-DUPLEX

Aspects relate to dynamically changing the slot format of a slot between half-duplex and sub-band full-duplex and/or to changing flexible symbols within a flexible slot between half-duplex and sub-band full-duplex when a base station is configured to operate in a sub-band full-duplex mode. A slot format indicator (SFI) indicating the slot format of the slot may be signaled, for example, via downlink control information (DCI) mapped to a downlink control channel or medium access control (MAC) control element (MAC-CE) mapped to a downlink data channel. To improve reliability, various SFI boosting mechanisms may further be employed. For example, the base station may apply a higher aggregation level to the SFI, transmit repetitions of the SFI across multiple beams, apply a CRC enhancement and/or MCS enhancement to the downlink control channel carrying the SFI, and/or apply a power boost to the SFI.
