Abstract: methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. generally, the described techniques provide for a first user equipment (ue) to establish a communication link with a base station and a sidelink communication link with a second ue using different transmission reception points associated with the first ue. the first ue may perform an interference measurement between downlink communications received on the communication link and sidelink communications transmitted on the sidelink communication link. the first ue may determine whether it is able to perform full-duplex operations on the communication link and the sidelink communication link based on the interference measurement and may transmit an indication of the capability of the first ue to the base station. in some examples, the second ue may perform measurements of interference from downlink signals on the sidelink communication link, where the measurements may inform the determination to use full-duplex communications at the first ue.

IPC Code(s): H04W76/28, H04W28/02



Abstract: a ue may obtain a first set of audio packets based on a configured periodic cycle with a network node. the ue may transmit, for the network node, a first set of uplink (ul) transmissions associated with the first set of audio packets based on a first periodic time interval. the first periodic time interval may be different than the configured periodic cycle. the first periodic time interval may be based on a first multiplier and the configured periodic cycle. the ue may be a transmitter ue. the network node may receive, from the transmitter ue, the first set of ul transmissions associated with the first set of audio packets based on the first periodic time interval. the network node may output, for a receiver ue, the first set of ul transmissions associated with the first set of audio packets.

IPC Code(s): H04W76/30, H04L5/00, H04W72/231



Abstract: certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method of wireless communication at a user equipment (ue), generally including receiving a configuration indicating a set of cells that are configured for serving the ue and support mobility signaling via physical (phy) layer or medium access control (mac) layer signaling; receiving signaling that indicates a group of cells for the ue to remove from the set of cells; and releasing the indicated group from the set of cells.

Abstract: electronic devices that include a routing substrate with lower inductance path for a capacitor, and related fabrication methods. in exemplary aspects, to provide lower interconnect inductance for a capacitor coupled to a power distribution network in the routing substrate, an additional metal layer that provides an additional, second power plane is disposed in a dielectric layer between adjacent metal layers in adjacent metallization layers. the additional, second power plane is adjacent to a first power plane disposed in a first metal layer of one of the adjacent metallization layers. the disposing of the additional metal layer in the dielectric layer of the metallization layer reduces the thickness of the dielectric material between the first and second power planes coupled to the capacitor as part of the power distribution network. this reduced dielectric thickness between first and second power planes coupled to the capacitor reduces the interconnect inductance for the capacitor.
