20230042536 · 2023-02-09 ·

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit an indication of a time parameter (e.g., a time delay or a configured duration) associated with determining a configuration for a slot duration. A user equipment (UE) may identify the time parameter and receive an indication of a slot configuration. The UE may determine the configuration of one or more slot durations based on the received indication and according to the time parameter. For instance, the UE may determine the configuration of one or more slots after the time delay. In some other examples, the UE may determine the configuration of one or more slots within the configured duration, and may not use different slot configurations until after the duration expires. The base station and the UE may communicate during the one or more slot durations based on the slot configuration and using the time parameter.

Broadcast transmission by relay node
11558851 · 2023-01-17 · ·

A donor communication station transmits a unicast transmission comprising a plurality of device data sets where each device data set directed to each of a plurality of user equipment (UE) devices. A relay node receives the unicast transmission and retransmits the data sets in a broadcast transmission over a broadcast communication channel to the plurality of UE devices. In one example, the donor communication station encodes data for multiple user equipment (UE) devices by applying broadcast encoding to the data for each device before applying outer encoding to the data. The dual encoded data is transmitted to the relay node over a dedicated channel. The relay node applies outer decoding to the dual encoded data to retrieve the broadcast encoded data. The relay node then transmits the broadcast encoded device data in a broadcast transmission without outer encoding.
