Abstract: methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. polar coding involves assigning bits to different bit-channels, and encoding the bits such that certain bit-channels (e.g., polar channels) are polarized to increased reliability, while other bit-channels are polarized to decreased reliability. to ensure that polar codes for extended reality (xr) and video applications have increased reliability for the aspects of an xr stream or video code that are most important, the information bits of a stream may be sorted based on priority or importance. then the sorted information bits may be mapped to the most reliable bit-channels of a polar encoder. any errors in the transmission may therefore be most likely to occur in the less important bits. accordingly, in the case of xr, the information bits that are most important to user experience/perception are the most likely to be successfully received and decoded at the receiver.

CPC Code(s): H04L1/0061
Abstract: methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. cyclic redundancy check (crc) bits may be appended to a set of information bits on a per-group basis prior to encoding using an error correcting code. the amount of crc bits appended to each group of information bits may be based on the priority of the group of information bits. for example, the priority may be based on the type of information conveyed by the group of information bits. for example, for a video stream, information bits conveying low frequency information may have a higher priority than information bits conveying high frequency information, as the low frequency bits may be more important to user perception/experience of the video. the transmitting device and the receiving device may negotiate the crc configuration (e.g., the crc bits per-group and the locations of the groups) so that the receiving device can verify the information bits.

Abstract: methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. the techniques described herein relate to enhancements to physical downlink control channel (pdcch) monitoring and skipping. a user equipment (ue) receives, from a network entity, a control message including a control channel skipping indication or a switching indication. the control channel skipping indication or the switching indication is associated with an application delay time duration that indicates a beginning of a control channel skipping or search space set group (sssg) switching time duration. the ue adjusts an ending time of the application delay time duration based on feedback of whether a message was successfully received via a data channel. the ue skips monitoring of control channel occasions or transitioning from a first sssg, beginning at the adjusted ending time of the application delay time duration.

Abstract: this disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for early termination of decoding attempts, including decoding attempts associated with physical downlink control channel (pdcch) candidates that are encoded using a rateless code. in some aspects, a transmitting device may encode a message using a rateless code associated with a cumulative encoding of various portions of the message, and using a device identifier or group identifier as an input to the encoding. similarly, a receiving device may receive an encoded signal over candidate resources and may attempt to decode the signal in accordance with the rateless code and using a device identifier or a group identifier as an input to the decoding. as such, intended or non-intended receiving device may be able to evaluate whether to proceed with a decoding attempt or to terminate a decoding attempt at a relatively early stage.

Abstract: this disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for beamforming in wireless communications. some implementations more specifically relate to beamforming configurations for multicast communications. a transmitting device may transmit multicast data to multiple receiving devices, concurrently, via a physical downlink shared channel (pdsch). the pdsch may be preceded by a physical downlink control channel (pdcch). the pdcch may provide scheduling information for the pdsch, including a multicast beam associated with the pdsch and a timing offset or delay between the pdcch and the pdsch. a receiving device may determine that the pdsch contains multicast data based on an indication in the pdcch. to receive the pdsch, each receiving device may tune its antennas in a direction of the scheduled multicast beam or a default beam based on the delay between the pdcch and the pdsch.

Abstract: methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. a method at a user equipment (ue) includes receiving signaling that indicates a carrier aggregation (ca) configuration (having carriers configured for ul and downlink (dl) data transmissions) and an auxiliary uplink (ul) configuration (having carriers configured for ul reference signal transmissions). the method also includes receiving a resource assignment on a dl carrier of the ca configuration, and transmitting an aperiodic sounding reference signal (a-srs) using the one or more carriers of the auxiliary ul configuration based at least in part on the received resource assignment. another method is performed by a ue having a ca configuration and an a-srs configuration, including receiving a resource assignment on a dl carrier in the ca configuration, detecting a trigger for transmitting an a-srs, determining ul resources of the a-srs configuration for transmitting the a-srs, and transmitting the a-srs on the determined ul resources.

Abstract: methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. the described techniques relate to improved methods, systems, devices, or apparatuses that support a 20 mhz station (sta) parked on a secondary channel. without the described techniques, mechanisms to support secondary channel operation may be unable to receive management frames or broadcast traffic from an access point (ap), which may cause the sta to lose synchronization with the ap, miss a channel change or other critical announcement from the ap, etc. considerations for providing such information to stas parked on a secondary channel are discussed. in some examples, an ap may restrict resource unit allocation to the secondary channel on which the sta is parked. in some cases, a trigger-based random access mechanism may utilize aspects of the present disclosure to limit access to certain resource units to stas on a given secondary channel.
