Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine a guard period associated with switching from a first communication mode to a second communication mode. The UE may be operating in a half-duplex frequency division duplexing mode of operation. The guard period may be determined based at least in part on at least one of: a number of phased locked loops to be used for the first communication mode and the second communication mode, and a particular subcarrier spacing associated with the UE. The UE may switch from the first communication mode to the second communication mode based at least in part on the guard period. Numerous other aspects are provided.

A data processing unit generates device state information based on carrier sensing data and acknowledgement signals received from an access point. A feature extraction and scoring unit extracts features from the device state information and generates scores for each RU representative of possibility of successful transmission based on the extracted features. A reward computation unit computes reward for providing feedback on prediction accuracy of the scores. A controller determines a RU used to transmit data based on the scores. The controller stores experiences including the device state information and the reward in a memory unit. The controller updates parameters of the feature extraction and scoring unit based on the experiences stored in the memory unit.

Methods, systems, and devices are described for handling transmissions or channels in wireless communications that collide with one another. The described techniques relate to handling the collision between multiple overlapping channels (e.g., two or more channels of the same priority). For example, a collision resolution configuration may include resolving the collisions among the channels of the same priority first (e.g., feedback information transmissions first, and then control information), among the channels of the same service type first (e.g., normal channels first, and then low latency channel(s)), or across all of the channels of all priorities at once. Collisions may be resolved by dropping or rescheduling overlapping information from the lower priority transmission(s) or channel(s) in consideration of the higher priority transmission(s) or channel(s), or by multiplexing or piggybacking overlapping information from a first priority transmission(s) or channel(s) with a second priority transmission(s) or channel(s).

Systems, methods and circuitries are provided for performing UE autonomous selection in a vehicle-to-anything (V2X) communication environment, that includes one or more processors configured to schedule resources for discontinuous periodic transmission having a scheduled discontinuous time period in which scheduled resources are not transmitted. The one or more processors are further configured to perform a monitoring operation at the scheduled discontinuous time period, the monitoring operation comprising a monitoring for a collision of scheduled resources of the evaluating UE with scheduled resources of a competing UE, and selectively perform a corrective action when a collision of scheduled resources of the evaluating UE with scheduled resources of the competing UE is detected during the monitoring operation.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for communications between user equipment. One of the methods includes receiving, by a first device and from a second device, sidelink control information indicating a resource reservation for a single-slot resource for the second device to use to communicate with the first device; determining, by the first device and based at least in part on the sidelink control information, whether a potential resource collision exists when the first device is scheduled to communicate with another device using the single-slot resource or when the single-slot resource is reserved by another device; and in response to determining that the potential resource collision exists, sending, by the first device and within a predetermined number of slots from a reference slot, a collision message to cause the second device to determine another single-slot resource to use to communicate with the first device.

Various embodiments disclose a method comprising receiving, at a first node, a listening schedule associated with a second node; determining, by the first node, a link latency associated with the second node based on the listening schedule; in response to the first node detecting a frame transmission failure for a frame being transmitted by the first node to the second node, determining, by the first node based on the link latency, a backoff time; and in response to the first node determining that the backoff time has elapsed, the first node retransmitting the frame from the first node to the second node. In some embodiments, the method also includes determining a frame lifetime value associated with the second node based on the link latency; and in response to determining that a time period corresponding to the frame lifetime value has elapsed, dropping the frame.

The present document discloses a data transmission method and a Station (STA). The data transmission method includes: a source STA has data to be sent, and detects, in a back-off process, that a radio channel is busy and a physical frame header part of a radio frame is successfully received; the source STA determines that a medium currently carrying wireless transmission can be multiplexed according to receiver Identification information carried in the received physical frame header part of the radio frame, and the source STA competes for a multiplexing transmission opportunity; and the source STA sends a radio frame to a destination STA after acquiring the multiplexing transmission opportunity.

Apparatus and methods for multi-carrier or multi-band utilization in an unlicensed wireless network. In one embodiment, the apparatus and methods provide enhanced wireless services which provide enhanced bandwidth capability to 5G NR-U entities such as gNodeB and UE devices across two heterogeneous unlicensed bands having different medium access mechanism and protocols. In one variant, LBT (listen before talk) protocols are used to detect the presence or absence of users within the respective bands of interest. When two or more unoccupied carriers or bands are identified, aggregated operation is used ti enhance the downlink/uplink (DL/UL) transmission bandwidth for the device(s).

A collision processing method, indication method, device, apparatus and medium are disclosed. The collision processing method includes: obtaining, by user equipment, a downlink positioning reference signal (PRS) type and collision determination information, the collision determination information being one of or a combination of following information: content carried by a downlink signal/channel, first indication information, second indication information, and third indication information; wherein the downlink PRS type is aperiodic PRS or semi-persistent PRS, the first indication information is used for indicating a positioning latency requirement, the second indication information is used for indicating priority levels of the downlink signals/channels, and the third indication information is used for indicating priority levels of the first and second indication information; and choosing, according to the downlink PRS type and collision determination information, to discard either a downlink PRS or other downlink signals/channels in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing symbol where a collision occurs.

Presented herein are techniques for assigning Ultra-Wideband (UWB) anchors for client ranging. A control device can monitor UWB ranging between a mobile device and a primary anchor. In response to determining that a signal strength between the mobile device and the primary anchor is below a threshold, the control device can identify anchors for which the mobile device has had a signal strength above the threshold during a period of time, and select one of the anchors as a new primary anchor for the mobile device. For example, the control device can select the new primary anchor based on a relative collision tolerance mapping for the new primary anchor and at least one other anchor within a UWB range of the new primary anchor. The control device can send a command causing UWB ranging to be performed between the mobile device and the new primary anchor.
