RULES FOR DETERMINING AN APPLICATION TIME FOR A DOWNLINK CONTROL INFORMATION (DCI) BASED UPDATE

Abstract:

Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to techniques for determining when to apply downlink control information (DCI)-based updates. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a downlink control information (DCI) indicating an update to be applied to at least one of an uplink (UL) transmission or a downlink (DL) transmission, determining an application time for applying the update based, at least in part, on a slot where an acknowledgement (ACK) was transmitted, and applying the update in accordance with the determined application time.
