Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a time division duplexing (TDD) multi-slot slot format indicator (SFI) for a set of slots. The UE may identify that the UE is operating in a frequency division duplexing (FDD) mode. The UE may determine, based on the FDD mode and the TDD multi-slot SFI, a downlink slot format and an uplink slot format for a subset of the set of slots.
Claims40
A method for wireless communication, comprising:
- receiving a time division duplexing (TDD) multi-slot slot format indicator (SFI) for a set of slots;
- identifying that a UE is operating in a frequency division duplexing (FDD) mode;
- and
- determining, based at least in part on the FDD mode and the TDD multi-slot SFI, a downlink slot format and an uplink slot format for a subset of the set of slots.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- means for receiving a time division duplexing (TDD) multi-slot slot format indicator (SFI) for a set of slots;
- means for identifying that a UE is operating in a frequency division duplexing (FDD) mode;
- and
- means for determining, based at least in part on the FDD mode, a downlink slot format and an uplink slot format for a subset of the set of slots from the TDD multi-slot SFI.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- a processor;
- memory in electronic communication with the processor;
- and
- instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
- receive a time division duplexing (TDD) multi-slot slot format indicator (SFI) fora set of slots;
- identify that a UE is operating in a frequency division duplexing (FDD) mode;
- and
- determine, based at least in part on the FDD mode, a downlink slot format and an uplink slot format for a subset of the set of slots from the TDD multi-slot SFI.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for wireless communication, the code comprising instructions executable by a processor to:
- receive a time division duplexing (TDD) multi-slot slot format indicator (SFI) fora set of slots;
- identify that a UE is operating in a frequency division duplexing (FDD) mode;
- and
- determine, based at least in part on the FDD mode, a downlink slot format and an uplink slot format for a subset of the set of slots from the TDD multi-slot SFI.
