Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may transmit an indication of one or more beams for simultaneous unicast and multicast monitoring and receive, using the one or more beams, at least one of unicast traffic or multicast traffic. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Claims24
A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to:
- transmit a first indication of one or more first parameters indicating one or more first beams for simultaneous unicast and multicast monitoring, one or more second beams for unicast-only monitoring, and one or more third beams for multicast-only monitoring;
- receive a second indication of one or more second parameters indicating at least one of the one or more first beams being configured for one or more simultaneous unicast and multicast monitoring resources, the one or more second beams being configured for one or more unicast-only monitoring resources, or the one or more third beams being configured for one or more multicast-only monitoring resources,
- the one or more second parameters including a time gap between the one or more unicast-only monitoring resources and the one or more multicast-only monitoring resources;
- and
- receive, based at least in part on the one or more first parameters and the one or more second parameters, and using at least one of the one or more first beams, the one or more second beams, or the one or more third beams, at least one of unicast traffic or multicast traffic.
A network entity for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to:
- transmit a first indication that a first subset of time-domain resources, of a plurality of time-domain resources that are permitted to be flexibly configured for unicast traffic or multicast traffic, are configured for unicast-only traffic;
- transmit a second indication that a second subset of time-domain resources, of the plurality of time-domain resources that are permitted to be flexibly configured for the unicast traffic or the multicast traffic, are configured for multicast-only traffic;
- transmit a third indication of a time gap between the first subset of time-domain resources and the second subset of time-domain resources;
- and
- transmit, based on of the first indication, the second indication, and the third indication, the unicast traffic in the first subset of time-domain resources and the multicast traffic in the second subset of time-domain resource.
A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to:
- receive a first indication that a first subset of time-domain resources, of a plurality of time-domain resources that are permitted to be flexibly configured for unicast traffic or multicast traffic, are configured for unicast-only traffic;
- receive a second indication that a second subset of time-domain resources, of the plurality of time-domain resources that are permitted to be flexibly configured for the unicast traffic or the multicast traffic, are configured for multicast-only traffic;
- receive a third indication of a time gap between the first subset of time-domain resources and the second subset of time-domain resources;
- and
- receive, based on the first indication, the second indication, and the third indication, the unicast traffic in the first subset of time-domain resources and the multicast traffic in the second subset of time-domain resource.
A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to:
- transmit a first indication of a capability of the UE to support simultaneous unicast and multicast monitoring;
- transmit at least one of a second indication of a quantity of frequency carriers that the UE is capable of supporting while simultaneously monitoring for unicast traffic and multicast traffic or a third indication of a capability of the UE to support dual connectivity while simultaneously monitoring for the unicast traffic and the multicast traffic;
- receive a fourth indication that permits switching between unicast-only monitoring and multicast-only monitoring within simultaneous unicast and multicast monitoring resources;
- and
- receive, based at least in part on, the first indication, at least one of the second indication or the third indication, and the fourth indication, at least one of the unicast traffic or the multicast traffic.
