Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a relay user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a downlink control information (DCI) message scheduling a first transmission between a source node and the relay UE and a second transmission between the relay UE and a destination node. The UE may transmit, to the base station, at least one of: feedback regarding at least one of the first transmission or the second transmission, or the second transmission. Numerous other aspects are described.

A method by a UE for performing a random access procedure is provided. The method comprises transmitting a MSGA, monitoring a MSGB-RNTI within a MSGB window starting from an earliest symbol of an earliest PDCCH occasion after the MSGA transmission, receiving the MSGB in a first slot, the MSGB including a success RAR that contains a HARQ Feedback Timing Indicator, a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) Resource Indicator, and a UE Contention Resolution Identity, determining, by a MAC entity, to instruct a lower layer to transmit a HARQ feedback in a second slot in response to the reception of the success RAR, delivering, by the MAC entity, the HARQ Feedback Timing Indicator and the PUCCH Resource Indicator to the lower layer, and performing, by the lower layer, a HARQ feedback delivery on an uplink (UL) resource.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for configuring hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) soft combining for a subset of HARQ processes supported by a user equipment (UE). A method performed by the UE generally includes transmitting capability information indicating a capability of the UE to perform hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) soft combining and receiving, based on the capability information, configuration information from the BS configuring the UE to perform soft combining on only a subset of a set of HARQ processes.

A method for WTRU autonomous resource selection may comprise receiving a TX resource pool for D2D communication from a base station. The WTRU may sense one or more resources of the TX resource pool and determine resources for transmission of control information and D2D data, based on the sensing. The WTRU may then transmit, to another WTRU, the control information and the D2D data on the determined resources.

Wireless communication between a user equipment (UE) and a base station may occur on unlicensed spectrum. When wirelessly communicating on unlicensed spectrum, there is an expectation that there may be interference from others devices also transmitting on the same resources in the unlicensed spectrum. Systems and methods are therefore disclosed that aim to facilitate wireless communication in unlicensed spectrum. In some embodiments, systems and method are disclosed that are directed to the transmission of uplink control information (UCI) in unlicensed spectrum. The UCI may be or include hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback. The HARQ feedback may correspond to a downlink data transmission that was also sent on unlicensed spectrum.

The invention refers to a method, performed by a user equipment, UE, for transmitting data based on a plurality of configured grants, CGs, of resources of a wireless network, the method comprising: receiving, from a network node serving the UE, configurations of a plurality of CGs of resources allocated for the UE to transmit data; transmitting, to the network node, an initial transmission of a transport block, TB, of data using first resources associated with a first one of the CGs, wherein the first CG supports a plurality of repetitions of a single TB; selecting second resources associated with a second one of the CGs for transmission of a subsequent repetition of the TB; and transmitting, to the network node, the subsequent TB repetition using the second resources associated with the second CG; the invention further refers to a method in a corresponding network node and to a corresponding UE and a network node respectively.

A wireless device operating in a communication network can, responsive to receiving a downlink control indication (“DCI”) command to activate or reactivate a configured grant (“CG”) configuration, control at least one timer associated with a non-idle hybrid automatic repeat request (“HARQ”) process on the CG configuration. The non-idle HARQ process can include a process of retransmitting a transmission block (“TB”) using the CG for which an associated media access control (“MAC”) protocol data unit (“PDU”) has been submitted to lower layers for transmission to a network node, but for which successful reception acknowledgment has not been received from the network node.

A terminal apparatus transmits a PUCCH in a certain slot, and receives multiple DCI formats on a set of PDCCH monitoring occasions corresponding to the certain slot. In a case that multiple PUCCHs exist in the certain slot and that the multiple PUCCHs include a first PUCCH including a first type HARQ-ACK codebook and a second PUCCH including a second type HARQ-ACK codebook, the second PUCCH is not transmitted.

The technology of this application provides a control information transmission method, so that sizes of different downlink control information (DCI) can be aligned, thereby reducing types of DCI sizes and reducing power consumption when a terminal detects DCI. The method includes a terminal device detecting first DCI in a first search space, where the first DCI is used to indicate an active bandwidth part (BWP) of the terminal device, a size of the first DCI and a size of second DCI are aligned, the second DCI can be sent by a network device to the terminal device in a first common search space, and the second DCI is used to schedule a system message, a paging message, or a random access response (RAR).
