The application for the patent was published on July 31, 2026, under issue no. 31/2026.
Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described, and more specifically for channel quality indicator (CQI) reporting in random-access-less (RACH-less) early data transmission (EDT). A user equipment (UE) may receive system information indicating that CQI reporting is enabled for an EDT procedure and indicating a carrier that is to communicate a downlink channel to the UE after transmission of a scheduled uplink transmission associated with an early data transmission. The UE may measure, in accordance with the EDT procedure, a downlink transmission on the carrier. The UE may generate a downlink CQI report based on the measurement of the downlink transmission on the carrier. The UE may transmit the scheduled uplink transmission, which includes the downlink CQI report and an early data transmission associated with the EDT procedure. The UE may monitor, based on transmitting the scheduled uplink transmission, the downlink channel for a quantity of repetitions.
