Abstract
Aspects described herein relate to a user equipment (UE) receiving, from a network entity, an indication to modify a synchronization signal block (SSB) configuration in a first subset of a set of time periods, and transmitting, for the network entity and based on the indication, uplink control information (UCI) indicating whether the UE is to transmit uplink communications in a second subset of the set of time periods. Other aspects relate to the network entity transmitting the indication and receiving the UCI.
Claims20
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- a transceiver;
- one or more memories configured to, individually or in combination, store instructions;
- and
- one or more processors communicatively coupled with the one or more memories, wherein the one or more processors are, individually or in combination, configured to execute the instructions to cause the apparatus to:
- receive, from a network entity, an indication to modify a synchronization signal block (SSB) configuration in a first subset of a set of time periods, wherein the indication indicates:
- that an SSB not indicated in the SSB configuration is being transmitted in the first subset of the set of time periods;
- or
- that an SSB indicated in the SSB configuration is not being transmitted in the first subset of the set of time periods;
- and
- transmit, for the network entity and based on the indication, uplink control information (UCI) indicating whether the apparatus is to transmit uplink communications in a second subset of the set of time periods.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- a transceiver;
- one or more memories configured to, individually or in combination, store instructions;
- and
- one or more processors communicatively coupled with the one or more memories, wherein the one or more processors are, individually or in combination, configured to execute the instructions to cause the apparatus to:
- transmit, for a user equipment (UE), an indication to modify a synchronization signal block (SSB) configuration in a first subset of a set of time periods, wherein the indication indicates:
- that an SSB not indicated in the SSB configuration is being transmitted in the first subset of the set of time periods;
- or
- that an SSB indicated in the SSB configuration is not being transmitted in the first subset of the set of time periods;
- and
- receive, for the UE and based on the indication, uplink control information (UCI) indicating whether the UE is to transmit uplink communications in a second subset of the set of time periods.
A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
- receiving, from a network entity, an indication to modify a synchronization signal block (SSB) configuration in a first subset of a set of time periods, wherein the indication indicates:
- that an SSB not indicated in the SSB configuration is being transmitted in the first subset of the set of time periods;
- or
- that an SSB indicated in the SSB configuration is not being transmitted in the first subset of the set of time periods;
- and
- transmitting, for the network entity and based on the indication, uplink control information (UCI) indicating whether the UE is to transmit uplink communications in a second subset of the set of time periods.
