'''Brief explanation'''
 
The abstract describes a method for a user equipment (UE) in a wireless network to determine a default path loss reference signal for an uplink transmission. This is necessary when the UE is unable to determine the default path loss reference signal due to the use of a beam associated with a transmission configuration indication (TCI) state and/or the use of a repetition configuration for the uplink transmission and/or a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) scheduling the uplink transmission.
 
 
* The UE determines the default path loss reference signal based on the repetition configuration associated with the PDCCH and/or the TCI state for an uplink control channel or uplink reference signal.
 
* The UE then performs an uplink power control operation for the uplink transmission using the determined default path loss reference signal.
 
 
Potential applications of this technology:
 
 
* Wireless communication networks
 
* Mobile devices and smartphones
 
* Internet of Things (IoT) devices
 
 
Problems solved by this technology:
 
 
* In a wireless network, the UE may be unable to determine a default path loss reference signal for an uplink transmission, which can lead to issues with power control and overall network performance.
 
* This technology solves the problem by providing a method for the UE to determine the default path loss reference signal based on the repetition configuration associated with the PDCCH and/or the TCI state for an uplink control channel or uplink reference signal.

In a wireless network, a user equipment (UE) may be unable to determine a default path loss reference signal associated with an uplink transmission if the uplink transmission is transmitted using abeam associated with a transmission configuration indication (TCI) state and/or the uplink transmission and/or a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) scheduling the uplink transmission is associated with a repetition configuration. In such cases, depending on a type associated with the uplink transmission, the UE may determine the default path loss reference signal based on the repetition configuration associated with the PDCCH and/or a TCI state for an uplink control channel or uplink reference signal. Accordingly, the UE may perform an uplink power control operation for the uplink transmission using the default path loss reference signal determined based on the repetition configuration associated with the PDCCH and/or the TCI state for the uplink control channel or uplink reference signal.

'''Brief explanation'''
 
The patent application describes a method and apparatus for control signaling in a wireless communication system. The apparatus is capable of supporting a Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) operation in a 2-codeword operating mode. Here are the key points:
 
 
* The apparatus sends a SIC capability indication to a network entity, indicating that the user equipment (UE) supports SIC operation for 2-codeword allocation.
 
* The indication also includes the order in which the first and second codewords should be processed.
 
* The apparatus waits for an acknowledgement (ACK) from the network entity to enable the SIC operation.
 
* Once the ACK is received, the apparatus can receive downlink communication based on the SIC operation.
 
* The first codeword within the downlink communication is processed using a specific modulation and coding scheme (MCS).
 
* Interference caused by the first codeword is canceled to obtain the second codeword within the downlink communication, which is transmitted using a different MCS.

'''Brief explanation'''
 
The patent application describes a system where a first access point (AP) selects other APs to participate in a coordinated transmission session. The first AP transmits scheduling information to the selected APs, indicating the start times for uplink (UL) or downlink (DL) transmissions. The start times are offset from each other by a time period associated with decoding a preamble of a wireless packet. The first AP can transmit or receive wireless packets concurrently with the selected APs, based on the scheduling information.

'''Abstract'''
 
In some implementations, a first access point (AP) selects one or more other APs for participation with the first AP in a coordinated access point transmission session. The first AP obtains a transmission opportunity (TXOP), and transmits a frame indicating scheduling information for uplink (UL) or downlink (DL) transmissions to or from the selected APs, the scheduling information indicating a respective start time for the UL or DL transmissions to or from the selected APs, at least two of the start times being offset from one another by a time period associated with decoding a preamble of a wireless packet. The first AP transmits or receives wireless packets to or from one or more associated stations (STAs) at least partially concurrently with the transmission or reception of wireless packets by the selected APs to or from their respective associated STAs based on the scheduling information.

'''Abstract'''
 
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for detecting when a control link between a user equipment (UE) and a base station is lost and recovering the control link. In one example, a UE may detect that a control link with a base station is lost based on a timer or counter expiring or based on failing to receive signaling from the base station. In another example, a UE may be configured to transmit uplink transmissions to a base station to maintain a control link with the base station, and the base station may detect that a control link with the UE is lost if the base station fails to receive one or more uplink transmissions from the UE. If the control link is lost, the base station and the UE may communicate to re-establish the control link.
