This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for increasing carrier frequencies for wireless communications in wireless local area networks (WLANs). Some implementations more specifically relate to BSS discovery and association techniques that support wireless communications on carrier frequencies above 7 GHz. In some aspects, an access point (AP) may communicate using beamforming on a wireless communication link operating at a carrier frequency above 7 GHz (the “directional link”) while offloading the BSS discovery and association procedures needed to support such communications onto a wireless communication link operating at a carrier frequency below 7 GHz (the “anchor link”). In some implementations, the AP may perform a beamforming training operation with a STA over the directional link upon associating with the STA over the anchor link. In such implementations, the AP may communicate with the STA over the directional link using a beam derived from the beamforming training operation.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network entity, a reference signal. The UE may transmit, to the network entity and via a feedback channel, digital pre-distortion (DPD) information that is based at least in part on the reference signal, wherein the DPD information indicates an estimate of non-linearities of a power amplifier at the network entity based at least in part on the reference signal. Numerous other aspects are described.

A wireless device may send repetitions of an uplink signal to a base station. The uplink signal may be repeated in different resource block in a time/frequency domain. More than one transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state may be activated, for example, if the wireless device is served by more than one transmission reception point (TRP). A sounding reference signal (SRS) resource set indicator may be provided to indicate which TCI state to use for sending repetitions in each resource blocks of a plurality of blocks.

Disclosed are a method and a device for beam reporting in a wireless communication system. A method for performing beam reporting by a terminal in a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may comprise the steps of: receiving configuration information regarding multiple reference signal (RS) resource groups from a base station; and on the basis of the configuration information, transmitting, to the base station, beam report information including one or more of non-event-based first measurement information regarding a first RS resource group and event-based second measurement information regarding a second RS resource group, wherein the first measurement information is periodically, semi-persistently, or aperiodically transmitted, the second measurement information is transmitted on the basis that a predetermined event is triggered in the terminal, and the first measurement information and the second measurement information are layer 1 (L1) measurement information.

A method for receiving, by a terminal, a signal for a beam search in a wireless communication system, according to an embodiment of the present specification, comprises the steps of: receiving a beam search signal (BSS); determining a reception beam (Rx beam) on the basis of the BSS; and receiving a downlink signal on the basis of the Rx beam, wherein the BSS is transmitted on the basis of a specific port that is different from a port related to the transmission of the downlink signal, and the BSS is transmitted on the basis of at least one antenna array configured exclusively for the specific port from among a plurality of antenna arrays.

A channel transmission method is performed by a terminal, and includes: determining a mapping relationship between at least one basic redundancy version (RV) sequence and a plurality of candidate transmission occasions for sending a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH); determining an actual RV sequence corresponding to each of the plurality of candidate transmission occasions based on the at least one basic RV sequence; and repeatedly sending a data block of the PUSCH on a plurality of target transmission occasions respectively based on actual RV sequences corresponding respectively to the plurality of target transmission occasions.

Systems and methods for beamforming include a device including at least one of a head wearable display (HWD) or a console. The device establishes a first connection between an active HWD radio-frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) and an active console RFIC. The device compares a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of the first connection to an MCS threshold.

The device performs MCS measurements for a second connection of at least one of an idle HWD RFIC or an idle console RFIC, while the first connection is maintained, in response to the MCS not satisfying the MCS threshold. The device compares the MCS measurements of the second connection to the MCS threshold. The device switches to the second connection when at least one of the one or more MCS measurements satisfies the MCS threshold and/or above the MCS of the first connection.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE) are described. Aspects of the described techniques may include the user equipment measuring signal aspects for a plurality of respective receive beams for receiving communications associated with a synchronization signal block transmitted by a base station on a transmit beam. From the measured signal aspects, the UE may determine that a receive beam from the plurality of receive beams is a preferred beam for receipt of communications from the base station transmitted on the transmit beam. With the determined preferred beam, the UE may initiate a beam-sweeping procedure to re-measure the plurality of UE receive beams, where the UE measures the first UE receive beam before measuring others of the plurality of UE receive beams.

Methods and apparatus for random access procedures with spatial settings. A method of operating a user equipment includes receiving a system information block (SIB). The SIB indicates a set of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS) resources for CSI-RSs, a set of random access occasions (ROs), and a mapping between the set of ROs and the set of CSI-RS resources. The method further includes determining a first RO from the set of ROs for transmission of a first physical random access channel (PRACH), determining a first spatial setting for the first PRACH transmission based on a first CSI-RS resource from the set of CSI-RS resources that is mapped to the first RO, and transmitting the first PRACH in the first RO using the first spatial setting.

In an aspect, a transmitter user equipment (UE) transmits, by a transmitter transmit-receive point (TRxP) of the transmitter UE on a transmit beam, a self-interference management reference signal (SIM-RS) during a first beam training occasion shared among a plurality of UEs for transmitting beam training reference signals (BT-RS) for sidelink communications among the plurality of UEs, and measures, by a receiver TRxP of the transmitter UE on a receive beam, self-interference at the receiver TRxP caused by transmission of the SIM-RS by the transmitter TRxP.
