Bandwidth part (BWP) switching may benefit a wireless communications system. Such BWP switching may include indication of one or more timing parameters used for time domain resource allocation. For example, the timing parameters may be indicated based on an index to a look-up table (e.g., a bit field in a control transmission). In some cases, one or more tables may be configured for a given BWP, and different tables may contain a different number of rows. The size of the bit field indexing the table may in turn depend on the number of rows. When switching from a first BWP to a second BWP, the size of the bit field may be based on the table of the first BWP, but the bit field may index the table of the second BWP. Techniques supporting improved timing parameter management during BWP switching are discussed herein.

A method for dynamically adjusting the revisit rate of a rake receiver for an individual UE is disclosed, such that the time to initially acquire the UL transmission is optimized while the ongoing Central Processing Unit (CPU) loading during normal operation is minimized. The method may comprise operating a multipath searcher in a first mode of operation at a first time, the first mode being an acquisition mode, the multipath searcher operating with a revisit rate of 100 percent; and, operating the multipath searcher in a second mode of operation at a second time, the second mode being a steady-state mode and the multipath searcher operating with a revisit rate of less than 100 percent.
