Activation and deactivation of random access channel occasions

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for dynamically activating and deactivating random-access channel (RACH) occasions (ROs). A base station may configure one or more ROs on which a user equipment (UE) can transmit RACH messages. If higher priority signaling (e.g., downlink signaling or uplink signaling) overlaps in time with the ROs, the base station may deactivate one or more ROs to decrease the likelihood of self-interference or cross-link interference (e.g., if the UE or the base station are operating in full duplex mode). The base station may deactivate or activate ROs by indicating indices for one or more ROs, indices for one or more synchronization signal blocks (SSBs), a pattern of ROs, some or all ROs within a time period, some or all ROs until a next downlink signal updates the RO configuration or activates ROs, or any combination thereof.

Methods and apparatuses for SPS HARQ-ACK transmission

A method by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a radio resource control (RRC) configuration carrying a configuration for a first downlink (DL) channel and an uplink (UL) channel, receiving the first DL channel and a second DL channel, and canceling the UL channel when a timing condition between the first DL channel and the second DL channel is satisfied.

Downlink control information and bandwidth part switching in a wireless device

A wireless device receives one or more radio resource control (RRC) messages. The RRC messages comprise configuration parameters, of a cell, indicating a first bandwidth part (BWP) and a second BWP. A first downlink control information (DCI) scheduling one or more first uplink resources for a first transmission of a first uplink transport block (TB) is received via the first BWP of the cell. A second DCI is received before the first transmission of the first uplink TB. The second DCI indicates: a switch from the first BWP to the second BWP of the cell; and one or more second uplink resources for a second transmission of a second uplink TB via the second BWP. The first transmission of the first uplink TB is cancelled.
