METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING INFORMATION, AND COMMUNICATION DEVICE
The present disclosure relate to methods for transmitting information, and communication devices. The method includes: sending an occupancy signal in response to a downlink control information (DCI) sent by a base station to the UE for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) resource in an unlicensed frequency spectrum being detected in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) resource of the unlicensed frequency spectrum, where the occupancy signal is used to indicate that a channel of the PDSCH resource is to be occupied.
TECHNIQUES FOR CONFIGURING SUPPLEMENTARY DOWNLINK SUPPORT FOR HALF-DUPLEX UE
Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques configuring half duplex UEs (HD-UEs) to implement supplementary downlink (SDL) in band combination that may be in same or different frequency range designations (e.g., FR1 or FR2). Particularly, in order to compensate for the loss of downlink coverage and improve load balancing, aspects of the present disclosure configure the UE to perform random-access channel (RACH), a procedure that is a shared channel used by wireless terminals to access the mobile network, on the anchor carrier in time division duplex (TDD) band and after initial access, the UE may be configured to switch to SDL to receive subsequent downlink signals.

DOWNLINK CONTROL INFORMATION CONFIGURATION FOR TRIGGERING HYBRID AUTOMATIC REPEAT REQUEST CODEBOOK RETRANSMISSION
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive downlink control information (DCI) including a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgement (ACK) retransmission indicator field set to indicate one-shot HARQ codebook retransmission. The UE may transmit, based at least in part on receiving the DCI, a HARQ codebook retransmission for a slot HARQ offset associated with another field of the DCI. Numerous other aspects are described.

Multiple link communication constraint
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may receive, when operating in a multiple link communication system, one or more downlink control information (DCI) messages scheduling one or more downlink communications. The user equipment may determine, based at least in part on the one or more DCI messages, whether a communication constraint is satisfied for the one or more downlink communications. The user equipment may determine a communication configuration for the one or more downlink communications based at least in part on whether the communication constraint is satisfied. The user equipment may receive, in the multiple link communication system, the one or more downlink communications based at least in part on the communication configuration. Numerous other aspects are provided.
HARQ-ACK transmission and retransmission in wireless communication systems
An apparatus of user equipment (UE) includes processing circuitry coupled to a memory, where to configure the UE for HARQ-ACK transmission in an NR network, the processing circuitry is to decode DCI received via a PDSCH. The DCI includes resource assignments, a set index, and a reset indicator for a set of PDSCHs. Downlink data associated with the set index and received via the set of PDSCHs using the resource assignments is decoded. A PUCCH is encoded for transmission to a base station to include a HARQ-ACK of the decoded downlink data associated with the set index. The PUCCH is encoded to further include a second HARQ-ACK for a prior PDSCH reception, when the prior PDSCH reception includes PDSCHs associated with the set index and the reset indicator matches a reset indicator of the prior PDSCH reception.
Dynamic switching between different multi-transmission/reception point schemes
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a network may schedule a user equipment (UE) for multiple transmission/reception point (TRP) communication. The network may transmit a single downlink control information (DCI) message to the UE to dynamically configure multiple transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states for the multiple TRPs. In a first example, the DCI message may include a bit field indicating a set of antenna ports and the multi-TRP scheme for transmission. In a second example, the DCI message may include a separate field indicating the multi-TRP scheme (e.g., based on UE capabilities). In a third example, the DCI may indicate redundancy versions (RVs) for different TRPs in an RV field or across multiple fields. In a fourth example, the DCI may include an indication of a precoding resource block group (PRG) size that may be interpreted differently based on the indicated multi-TRP scheme.
SCHEDULING RESOURCES FOR MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION CONFIGURATION INDICATOR STATES IN MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION TIME INTERVALS USING SINGLE DOWNLINK CONTROL INFORMATION
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive single downlink control information (DCI) that indicates resources for a plurality of transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states for transmitting or receiving communications in a plurality of transmission time intervals (TTIs). The UE may transmit or receive the communications in the plurality of TTIs in accordance with the DCI. Numerous other aspects are provided.
