Apparatus, methods, and computer readable media for facilitating of measuring occasions for transmissions based on frequency division multiplexing and spatial division multiplexing are disclosed herein. An example method for wireless communication at a UE includes receiving, from a base station, a hopping pattern indication configuring a hopping pattern. The example method also includes measuring interference of respective CSI-RS transmitted to other UEs included in a UE group based on at least the hopping pattern indication. The example method also includes reporting the measured interference to the base station. An example method for wireless communication at a base station includes transmitting a hopping pattern indication to each of a plurality of UEs. The example method also includes transmitting reference signals for the plurality of UEs using the hopping pattern among multiple subbands, and receiving a report of interference measured by each of the plurality of UEs based on the reference signals.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for sounding reference signal (SRS) frequency hopping enhancements. An example method performed by user equipment generally includes determining a first sounding reference signal (SRS) frequency hopping pattern for transmitting one or more SRSs; determining an antenna switch will occur during the transmission of the one or more SRSs; determining a second SRS frequency hopping pattern for transmitting the one or more SRSs, wherein determining the second SRS frequency hopping pattern comprises using the first SRS frequency hopping pattern to generate the second SRS frequency hopping pattern based on the determined antenna switch; and transmitting a first set of SRSs of the one or more SRSs according to the first SRS frequency hopping pattern and transmitting a second set of SRSs of the one or more SRSs according to the second SRS frequency hopping pattern.

An approach for wireless communications to support reduced capability New Radio (NR) with larger available control resource sets (CORESET) bandwidths. Examples include a frequency-hopping CORESET with a predefined hopping pattern configured by higher layers, such as RRC signaling or MAC Control Element (CE) on a per CORESET per UE or purely per UE basis. Frequency hopping patterns for CORESET transmissions include the use of PRBs for CORESETs that are mirrored with respect to the central frequency of active bandwidth part (BWP), and the use of a random parameter to step through the frequency pattern. The sub-band location of the physical downlink shared channel that is scheduled by the physical downlink control channel may be indicated using the DCI format, or may be based on a last slot for PDCCH transmission.

A first dual SIM user equipment (UE) has a first wireless connection to first Citizens Broadband radio Services Devices (CBSD) of a first network and a second wireless connection to a second CBSD of a second network. Different encryption and different frequency hopping patterns are used with regard to communicating the same voice packet information over the first and second wireless connections. The same voice information is attempted to be redundantly communicated over the two connections, e.g. concurrently or with a slight delay with regard to the two connections. The CBRS communications are typically less reliable than cellular licensed spectrum communications, and a particular encrypted voice packet may, and sometimes is lost; however, the redundancy is used to compensate for expected losses. Successfully recovered encrypted voice packets are sent from the CBSDs to a packet synchronizer which performs decryption and combines the recovered packets into a single packet stream.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A wireless device may determine a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resource for a PUCCH transmission prior to receiving a dedicated PUCCH resource configuration, determining a repetition level for the PUCCH transmission, and transmit the PUCCH transmission, on at least the PUCCH resource, according to the repetition level. A base station may transmit, to a user equipment (UE), information scheduling a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) transmission on a PUCCH resource prior to configuring dedicated PUCCH resources for the UE, determine a repetition level for the PUCCH transmission, transmit, to the UE, an indication of the repetition level, and receive, according to the repetition level, a first repetition of the PUCCH transmission on the PUCCH resource and other repetitions of the PUCCH transmission.
