Methods, systems, and devices for dynamic physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) mapping modes are described. In some examples, a user equipment (UE) may receive a first control message identifying one or more sets of resources around which the UE may rate match for a downlink channel. In some examples, the UE may receive a second control message including an indication that the UE may perform either rate matching around at least one set of resources of the one or more sets of resources or receiving the downlink channel on the at least one set of resources. As such, the UE may receive signals on the downlink channel according to the indication received in the second control message.

A method for error handling of an interconnection protocol, a controller and a storage device are provided. The method for error handling of an interconnection protocol is for use in a first device that is linkable to a second device according to the interconnection protocol, the method comprising: during or after a power mode change of a link between the first device and the second device: a) triggering, by the first device, a first line reset signal to the second device; b) performing, by the first device, suppression of detected rate overlap errors; and c) stopping the suppression of detected rate overlap errors after the first device receives a second line reset signal from the second device.

Communication device for transmitting data to another communication device, the communication device comprising circuitry configured to obtain a truncation notification indicating that an ongoing transmission of a data unit is to be truncated; in response to the truncation notification, determine, based on the number of unprocessed modulation input bits of the data unit, a remaining bit length of a modulation input block, and perform padding to add a number of modulation padding bits corresponding to the determined remaining bit length of a modulation input block to the unprocessed modulation input bits to obtain a complete modulation input block; modulate the complete modulation input block to obtain a modulation output block; and transmit a transmit data stream containing the obtained modulation output block.

A first device performs wireless communication by performing operations that include: attaching cyclic redundancy check (CRC) bits to first bits related to second sidelink control information (SCI), thereby acquiring second bits; acquiring third bits based on channel coding regarding the second bits; acquiring the number of first modulation symbols related to the second SCI acquiring the number of second modulation symbols related to the second SCI by adding a gamma value to the number of the first modulation symbols based on the number of at least one resource element (RE), to which the first modulation symbols are not mapped, among multiple REs on a symbol, to which the last modulation symbol among the first modulation symbols is mapped, within a resource block (RB) to which the last modulation symbol belongs; and performing rate matching regarding the third bits based on the second modulation symbols.

Aspects of the present disclosure provide apparatus, methods, processing systems, and computer readable mediums for performing rate matching for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH). An example method generally includes monitoring for at least first and second downlink control information (DCI) formats for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), determining a bitwidth of a rate matching indicator field of at least one of the first DCI format or the second DCI format, and performing PDSCH rate matching for a PDSCH scheduled by a DCI of the first or second DCI format based, at least in part, on the rate matching indicator field in the DCI or a format of the DCI.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The method may include a user equipment (UE) receiving, from a base station, signaling configuring the UE with a semi-persistent (SP) channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) resource set. Additionally, the UE may receive, from the base station, signaling configuring the UE to communicate using multicast signaling via a multicast downlink shared channel. The UE may receive an activation command activating the SP CSI-RS resource set. The UE may apply a rule and based on the activation command and the rule perform rate matching on the multicast downlink shared channel around either multicast or unicast resources of the CSI-RS resource set.

A retransmission method includes obtaining, by a transmitter, a to-be-coded bit sequence that comprises K to-be-coded bits, where K is a positive integer. The retransmission method further includes performing polar coding on the to-be-coded bit sequence thereby obtaining a coded first bit sequence, and determining an initial transmission version (RV0). A length of the coded first bit sequence is N0. The retransmission method further includes determining a length (E1) of a retransmission version (RV1), determining the RV1 based on an initial transmission bit rate (R0), and sending the RV1.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described to enable a user equipment (UE) to determine a rate-matching scheme or a feedback scheme for overlapping downlink transmission resources. A collision handling scheme may enable the UE to de-rate match a second, higher priority downlink shared channel independent of another rate-matching pattern or indicator for other shared channels, such as a first, overlapping downlink shared channel. The UE may determine to de-rate match the second channel around resources indicated within control signaling or higher-layer signaling associated with the second channel. The collision scheme may provide for the UE to generate an acknowledgement bit for feedback for one or more portions of the first channel that are preempted by the second channel and generate other feedback for non-preempted portions. A base station may keep track of preempted resources and may retransmit preempted portions of the first channel.

Methods, systems, and apparatus are provided for encoding code blocks for transmission in a wireless communication system. An example encoding method in a wireless communication system includes determining, for one or more code blocks of a transport block, that at least one of a plurality of criteria is met, wherein the plurality of criteria includes that a coding rate (R) is less than or equal to ¼ or that a transport block size (TBS) is less than or equal to 3824 bits and the R is less than or equal to ⅔. The one or more code blocks are encoded using low-density parity-check (LDPC) base graph 2, wherein a maximum code block size is 3840 bits. The one or more encoded code blocks are transmitted over the wireless network.

Aspects described herein relate to bi-direction preemption indication transmissions. In one example, a node such as an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node may determine that a set of one or more resources are preempted for use for both an uplink transmission and a downlink transmission, and transmit, to a user equipment (UE), the bi-direction preemption indication indicating that the set of one or more resources are preempted for use for both of the uplink transmission and the downlink transmission. In another example, a UE may receive a bi-direction preemption indication indicating that a set of one or more resources are preempted for use for both an uplink transmission and a downlink transmission, and perform rate matching for both of the uplink transmission and downlink transmission based on the set of one or more resources indicated by the bi-direction preemption indication.
