A method may include determining a slot for hybrid automatic repeat request feedback based on one or more downlink assignments. The method may also include determining one or more sets of communication channels with associated start and length indicators for which hybrid automatic repeat requests will be bundled based on a resource assignment table and a hybrid automatic repeat request bundling configuration parameter. The method may further include determining one or more sets of candidate communication channel slots based on K1 values and the resource assignment table.

The method may also include removing unselected start and length indicators and candidate communication channel slots without a selected start and length indicator.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) downlink communication. The UE may detect a collision between a configured uplink resource associated with a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) for the SPS downlink communication and a candidate synchronization signal block (SSB) position. The UE may transmit the HARQ-ACK for the SPS downlink communication in the configured uplink resource or in a deferred uplink resource in connection with detecting the collision. Numerous other aspects are described.

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support mechanisms for semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) and hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback skipping for user equipment (UE)-initiated transmissions. A UE configured for extended reality (XR) operations and an SPS configuration including a plurality of SPS occasions, each SPS occasion configured with at least one downlink resource and at least one uplink resource, collects pose information related to at least one SPS occasion. The UE determines, based on the pose information, to skip at least one SPS occasion. The UE sends an indication of the determination to skip the at least one SPS occasion to a base station. The indication is transmitted in a preconfigured uplink resource or may be piggyback an uplink transmission. The base station may reallocate the resources configured for the at least one SPS occasion based on receiving the indication.

A communication device for handling a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) transmission, comprises at least one storage device; and at least one processing circuit, coupled to the at least one storage device, wherein the at least one storage device stores instructions, and the at least one processing circuit is configured to execute the instructions of: receiving a configuration from a network, wherein the configuration comprises a time domain resource allocation (TDRA) table and a set of a plurality of timing values; and receiving a downlink (DL) control information (DCI) from the network, wherein the DCI indicates a row of the TDRA table for at least one physical DL shared channel (PDSCH) reception and indicates a timing value of the set of the plurality of timing values for the HARQ transmission corresponding to the at least one PDSCH reception.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for wireless communications by a user equipment (UE). The UE detects one or more conditions are met for transmitting a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) providing assistance information to a network entity for scheduling. In response to the detection, the UE then takes one or more actions to obtain uplink (UL) resources for transmitting the MAC CE.

A method and a user equipment (UE) for handling a survival time state are provided. The method includes: receiving a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) configuration for indicating that a Data Radio Bearer (DRB) associated with a PDCP entity supports a survival time state functionality, the PDCP entity being associated with at least two Radio Link Control (RLC) entities; receiving an Uplink (UL) grant for retransmission of a Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data Unit (PDU), the MAC PDU including data from the DRB; entering the survival time state for the DRB upon receiving the UL grant; and activating a PDCP duplication for the PDCP entity during the survival time state.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for efficient hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process utilization for semi-persistent and dynamic data transmissions, wherein a reserved HARQ process identification (ID) can be reused. A subset of a plurality of HARQ process IDs is reserved to use for a semi-persistent allocation, and data is transmitted based on the semi-persistent allocation. A dynamic allocation is received via a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). At least one of the reserved HARQ process IDs is selectively used for transmitting data based on the dynamic allocation.

Techniques are disclosed relating to downlink control information for wireless communications. In some embodiments, the downlink control information includes code block group information that indicates which code block groups are transmitted and soft buffer handling information that indicates whether to flush previously-determined soft bits that correspond to one or more code block groups.

A user equipment (UE) and a base station (BS) for a mobile communication system are provided. The UE receives, from the BS, a first downlink control information (DCI) indicating a first uplink resource for transmitting a first uplink signal, and then receives, from the BS, a second DCI indicating a second uplink resource for transmitting a second uplink signal. The BS configures the second uplink resource to be advanced to the first uplink resource in the time domain based on the uplink out-of-order configuration. The UE decides the transmission of the first uplink signal according to the condition of resource configuration.
