A user equipment (e.g., C-V2X user equipment) can receive a transmission from a network device of a mobile network and decode the transmission using a first forward error correction code. The user equipment can determine an attribute of the transmission to determine a condition of the communication channel. Based on the condition of the communication channel, the user equipment can facilitate transmitting feedback to the network device, wherein the feedback is forwarded through the mobile network to an application server device that selects a second forward error correction code based on the feedback. The second forward error correction code can be transmitted to, and received by, the user equipment. The user equipment can use the second forward error correction code to decode subsequent transmissions.

The described technology is generally directed towards ultra-reliable low latency communications between a network device and a user equipment, using scheduling parameters for a less conservative block error rate threshold based on the spectral efficiency. A network device obtains channel state information comprising a rank indicator, a layer indicator indicating a strongest layer, a first channel quality indicator corresponding to a first coding rate and a first modulation value for a first conservative block error rate threshold value, and a second channel quality indicator corresponding to a second coding rate and second modulation value for a second conservative block error rate threshold value. When the network device determines that that the first coding rate and the first modulation value are suitable for ultra-reliable low latency communications, the network device schedules the user equipment to use the first coding rate and the first modulation value, e.g., using the strongest layer.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may determine to switch from a first beamforming mode to a second beamforming mode, wherein one of the first beamforming mode and the second beamforming mode is a digital beamforming mode, and wherein the other of the first beamforming mode and the second beamforming mode is an at least partially analog beamforming mode; and perform a communication using the second beamforming mode. Numerous other aspects are provided.

A method, apparatus and computer program product receive a traffic redundancy indication from a user equipment in a communication network or from a policy controller. The method, apparatus and computer program product determine whether traffic redundancy is needed for the radio access network and the user plane function based on the traffic redundancy indication. The method, apparatus and computer program product request the radio access network to not establish redundancy mechanisms in a circumstance where traffic redundancy is not needed for the radio access network. The method, apparatus and computer program product request the user plane function to not establish redundancy mechanisms in a circumstance where traffic redundancy is not needed for the user plane function.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a first communication that includes information to facilitate selection and/or switching of carrier aggregation or multi-connectivity for a first cell group and a second cell group. The UE may receive, based at least in part on transmitting the first communication, a second communication that configures and/or switches carrier aggregation or multi-connectivity for the first cell group and the second cell group. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a number of channel state information (CSI) reports for a CSI reporting procedure as part of a beam management procedure. The UE may transmit a first number of CSI reports of the CSI reporting procedure to the base station using a first set of transmission parameters associated with a first reliability level. The base station may transmit a control message to the UE indicating a second set of transmission parameters associated with a second reliability level and the UE may transmit a second number of CSI reports of the CSI reporting procedure to the base station using the second set of transmission parameters.

A method and apparatus to address changes in quality of service in a communication link between two user equipment devices includes establishing the communication link between a first user equipment device and a peer user equipment device, where the communication link services an application executing on the first user equipment. The first user equipment device monitors a current quality of service on the communication link and detects a condition wherein the current quality of service may not be met. Adjusted configuration parameters for the application and new quality of service parameters for the communication link are determined. The adjusted configuration parameters are applied to the application and the new quality of service parameters are applied to the communication link.

A multi-link device (MLD) includes a transmit (TX) circuit, a receive (RX) circuit, and a control circuit. The control circuit controls the RX circuit to receive a first frame under an operation mode parameter with a first setting, control the TX circuit to transmit a second frame responsive to the first frame under the operation mode parameter with the first setting, and after the second frame is transmitted, controls the RX circuit to receive at least one physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) under the operation mode parameter with a second setting, wherein the second setting is different from the first setting.

The present disclosure relates to a pre-5.sup.th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4.sup.th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). The present disclosure provides an apparatus and method for efficiently transmitting a packet in a wireless communication system. The present disclosure relates to an operation method for a transmitter in a wireless communication system, the operation method comprising the steps of: mapping a parameter according to quality of service (QoS) information or a service type; determining, on the basis of the parameter, whether to duplicate a packet; when it is determined that the packet is to be duplicated, duplicating the packet; and transmitting the duplicated packets to a receiver.

Use of multiple sensors to determine whether motion of an object is occurring in an area is described. In one aspect, an infrared (IR) sensor can be supplemented with a radar sensor to determine whether the determined motion of an object is not a false positive.
