  • Patent number: 11997028
    Abstract: Aspects described herein relate to interference mitigation for communication with muting via inter-cell coordination. In one example, a network entity such as a cell may identify a time or frequency resource allocated for communication with a user equipment (UE), and transmit, to a neighboring network entity, a muting message indicating that the time or frequency resource is occupied for communication. In another example, the network entity may receive, from a neighboring network entity, a muting message indicating that a time or frequency resource is occupied for communication. The network entity may further forgo scheduling of an uplink or downlink transmission to a UE on the indicated time or frequency resource. The network entity may further schedule data for uplink or downlink transmission with the UE on a different time or frequency resource.

  • Patent number: 11979897
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and a device in a node used for wireless communications. A first node receives a first signal in a first cell and receives a second signal in a second cell; and then transmits a target information set on a first channel; a serving cell identity of the first cell is a first ID, while a serving cell identity of the second cell is a second ID, the first ID being smaller than the second ID; when the second cell is capable of scheduling a target cell, a measurement on the second signal is used for generating the target information set. By associating the CSI transmission corresponding to a cell with whether the cell is capable of scheduling a PCell, the transmission of CSI under Cross-Carrier Scheduling can be optimized, thus improving the entire system's performance.
