Techniques for power control in millimeter wave systems
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first device, which may be a user equipment (UE), may perform a measurement on a wideband channel in a millimeter wave (mmW) frequency band. The wideband channel may include a set of subbands that span the wideband channel. Based on the measurement, the first device may determine a set of power control parameters for the wideband channel. The first device may determine to transmit a signal using a subband of the set of subbands and may modify one or more power control parameters of the set of power control parameters based on a power offset for the subband. The first device may transmit an indication of the modified one or more power control parameters to a second device. The first device may transmit the signal to the second device based on the modified one or more power control parameters.
Discontinuous reception notifications in a wireless communication system
Aspects described herein relate to sidelink-assisted virtual multi-link. In one aspect, for example, a relay node may serve as an additional virtual antenna panel for a UE by receiving downlink data from a base station via an access link, or receiving uplink data from the UE via a sidelink. The relay node may forward the downlink data to the UE via sidelink, or the uplink data to the base station via the access link. In another aspect, a base station may determine, for a UE, quasi-colocation (QCL) information and a grant for one or both of one or more access link resources or one or more sidelink resources. The base station may further transmit, to the UE, the QCL information and the grant on a downlink communication channel.
Communication device and method of controlling same
Apparatuses, methods, and systems of measuring received power are described, including apparatuses, methods, and systems which can measure received power, even when the subcarrier offset of the measurement bandwidth is different from the subcarrier bandwidth of the cell bandwidth. A method includes receiving, via a transceiver, first channel state information including a first index associated with first subcarrier offset information from a first Base Station (BS); receiving, via the transceiver, a plurality of Resource Blocks (RBs) from a second BS; configuring a second index associated with the plurality of RBs, instead of the first index, when the first index is different from the second index; measuring a received power based on the plurality of RBs from the second BS by using the second index; and identifying the measured received power as a valid received power.
BEAM MANAGEMENT FOR BISTATIC AIR INTERFACE BASED RADIO FREQUENCY SENSING IN MILLIMETER WAVE SYSTEMS
Techniques are provided for managing transmit and receive beams in a millimeter wave (mmW) communication system for use in bistatic radio frequency (RF) sensing. An example method of tracking targets with bistatic radio frequency sensing includes receiving one or more sensing reference signals, generating a signal report based at least in part on the one or more sensing reference signals, transmitting the signal report, receiving tracking signal configuration information, receiving one or more tracking reference signals identified in the tracking signal configuration information, and tracking one or more targets associated with the one or more tracking reference signals.
Preamble power and CSI-RS configuration for a wireless device
A wireless device receives a synchronization signal and physical broadcast channel (SS/PBCH) block. A control order for transmission of a preamble is received. A transmission power is determined for the preamble. The transmission power is based on: a received power value of a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) and a power offset value, in response to the wireless device configured with the CSI-RS; and a received power value of the SS/PBCH block and not based on the power offset value, in response to the wireless device not configured with CSI-RS. The preamble is transmitted based on the transmission power.

A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may perform, for example, a method for receiving interference information from each of the plurality of communication devices detecting interference information in a plurality of segments of a radio frequency spectrum, correlating the interference information of the plurality of communication devices to generate correlated information, and identifying a plurality of interferers according to the correlated information. Other embodiments are disclosed.

ENVELOPE ALIGNMENT CALIBRATION IN RADIO FREQUENCY SYSTEMS
Apparatus and methods for envelope alignment calibration in radio frequency (RF) systems are provided. In certain embodiments, calibration is performed by providing an envelope signal that is substantially triangular along an envelope path, and by providing an RF signal to a power amplifier along an RF signal path. Additionally, an output of the power amplifier is observed to generate an observation signal using an observation receiver. The observation signal includes a first peak and a second peak, and a delay between the envelope signal and the RF signal is controlled based on relative size of the peaks of the observation signal to one another.

Random access power control
A wireless device transmits a first preamble via a first sub-band. The wireless device determines to perform a first preamble retransmission based on receiving no response to the first preamble. The wireless device selects, for the first preamble retransmission, a second sub-band. Based on the second sub-band being different from the first sub-band, the wireless device determines that a transmission power of the first preamble retransmission may be based on a same value of a power ramping counter used for transmitting the first preamble. The wireless device transmits, based on the transmission power, a second preamble for the first preamble retransmission via the second sub-band.
