Sidelink discovery procedure

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In a first case, a first user equipment (UE) may transmit to a second UE a sidelink discovery message preamble corresponding to a sidelink discovery message. The first UE may identify resources for transmission of the sidelink discovery messages based on the sidelink discovery message preamble. The first UE may either transmit the sidelink discovery message to the second UE or may receive the sidelink discovery message from the second UE using the identified resources for the transmission of the sidelink discovery message. In some cases, the second UE may transmit sidelink control information (SCI) to the first UE, and may transmit a sidelink discovery message to the first UE based on resources identified in the SCI. In some cases, the first UE may transmit the sidelink discovery message without transmission of a preamble or a SCI.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a resource grant for at least one sidelink channel, wherein the resource grant indicates a first uplink resource for transmitting sidelink transmission acknowledgement messages and a second uplink resource for transmitting listen-before-talk statuses. The UE may transmit, to the base station and on the second uplink resource, an indication of at least one status associated with a listen-before-talk procedure used on the at least one sidelink channel. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Multicast feedback based on acknowledgment transmissions

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A set of uplink control channel resources that are configured for acknowledgment transmissions may be shared among user equipments (UEs) that are enabled to receive multicast communications. Each of the shared set of uplink control channel resources may be associated with set(s) of channel state information. UEs may measure a multicast channel to determine channel state information for the multicast channel. After failing to receive a multicast transmission, UEs may transmit an acknowledgment feedback message over one of the shared uplink control channel resources that is associated with the set of channel state information determined by the UE. A base station that receives the acknowledgment feedback message may transmit a multicast retransmission for the UEs using transmission parameters that are adapted for the set(s) of channel state information associated with the occupied uplink control channel resource.

A method for removing a self-interference signal by a device supporting an FDR mode can further comprise the steps of: transmitting a signal to a counterpart node in a predetermined time interval; generating, in an RF stage of the device, a residual self-interference signal after removal of an analog self-interference signal with respect to the signal and then storing same; and receiving from the counterpart node a NACK signal with respect to the transmission of the signal; retransmitting the signal to the counterpart node; and, if decoding of the signal which has been received in the predetermined time interval is successful, using only a part of the stored residual self-interference signal when removing a digital self-interference signal on the basis of the retransmission.

Persistent indication of acknowledgement resources

A user equipment is configured with at least two collections of uplink resources to be used for transmitting control information to a communication network. The UE receives an assignment of radio resources to be used for receiving a downlink transmission from a base station of the communication network. The UE receives an acknowledgement resource indication, ARI, indicating one of the configured collections of uplink resources to be used for transmitting control information associated with the DL transmission. Further, the UE transmits the control information to the base station on at least a subset of the indicated collection of UL resources. In example embodiments, the indicated collection of uplink resources comprises a plurality of selectable uplink resource sets. The control information is transmitted on one of the uplink resource sets which corresponds to an operational state of the communication network.

A method for requesting an uplink scheduling is provided. In the case that there is an SR PUCCH resource established on a secondary cell, not an SR PUCCH resource established on a primary cell, and a special secondary cell is in a state of de-activation at the time of sending an uplink scheduling request, the uplink scheduling request is stopped and a random access procedure is initiated. If the uplink scheduling request can be sent on a plurality of cells at the same point of time, that is, if there are a plurality of uplink resources available for the uplink scheduling request at the same point of time, the uplink scheduling request is sent only on one of the plurality of cells (and using only one uplink resource).

Component carrier activation and deactivation using resource assignments

This invention relates to a proposal of an uplink resource assignment format and a downlink resource assignment format. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of the new uplink/downlink resource assignments in methods for (de)activation of downlink component carrier(s) configured for a mobile terminal, a base station and a mobile terminal. To enable efficient and robust (de)activation of component carriers, while minimizing the signaling overhead, the invention proposes a new uplink/downlink resource assignment format that allow the activation/deactivation of individual downlink component carriers configured for a mobile. The new uplink or downlink resource assignment comprises an indication of the activation state of the configured downlink component carriers, i.e., indicate which downlink component carrier(s) is/are to be activated or deactivated. This indication is for example implemented by means of a bit-mask that indicates which of the configured uplink component carriers are to be activated respectively deactivated.

Transmission and reception configuration and signaling

One or more transmission parameters for data transmission may be determined for wireless communications. A wireless device may determine transmission parameters for data transmission based on configuration associated with control signaling. For example, the transmission parameters (e.g., transmission beam, transmission power, etc.) may be determined based on a selected spatial relation, among multiple spatial relations, corresponding to a control channel.
