Various embodiments are generally directed to improved channel quality information feedback techniques. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus for a base station is provided that includes a radio interface and a processor coupled to the radio interface. The processor is configured to receive a channel quality indicator (CQI) index, wherein the CQI index is based on a channel state information (CSI) reference resource, further wherein a first three orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols of the CSI reference resource are occupied by control signals, select a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) based on the CQI index, and cause transmission of the PDSCH based on the selected MCS via the radio interface. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Various embodiments disclosed herein provide for reduced overhead signaling when a user equipment device is being configured with multiple bandwidth parts for downlink transmission. When a user equipment device is being configured with multiple bandwidth parts (channels on an aggregate carrier), the signaling that indicates the codebook subset restriction bit map, rank restriction bit map, and beam restriction bit map needs to be repeated for each bandwidth part. Often however, the restriction bit maps are repeated in the bandwidth parts, and so overhead can be reduced by encoding a confirmation bit in each bandwidth part, such that if the confirmation bit is set to “1”, the user equipment device can know to apply the restriction bit map from the primary bandwidth part to the secondary bandwidth part, without having to encode the secondary bandwidth part restriction bit map.

A wireless device may transmit assistance information comprising first configuration parameters of a power saving operation of the wireless device. The first configuration parameters may comprise a first maximum number of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) layers for a first cell group and a second maximum number of MIMO layers for a second cell group. The wireless device may receive second configuration parameters. The second configuration parameters may comprises a first number of MIMO layers for a first cell of the first cell group and a second number of MIMO layers for a second cell of the second cell group. The first number may be less than or equal to the first maximum number. The second number may be less than or equal to the second maximum number.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a target user equipment (UE) may receive a channel state information (CSI) reference signal (RS) from a source UE via a sidelink communication; determine that a lower-layer determined source identifier of the source UE is included in a set of upper-layer determined source identifiers; and transmit a CSI report in a media access control (MAC) control element (CE) as a response to the CSI RS, based at least in part on the determination that the lower-layer determined source identifier of the source UE is included in a set of upper-layer determined source identifiers. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some wireless communications systems, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of first and second channel measurement resources associated with corresponding first and second transmission configuration indicator states. The UE may identify a rank restriction parameter for obtaining channel state information for a joint transmission hypothesis associated with the first and second channel measurement resources. The UE may generate and transmit a channel state information report that includes at least one rank indicator corresponding to the joint transmission hypothesis in accordance with the rank restriction parameter.
