Publication number: 20240179689Abstract: A computer-readable storage medium stores instructions to configure a UE for joint channel estimation of uplink transmissions in a Fifth Generation New Radio (5G NR) and beyond wireless network, and to cause the UE to perform operations. The operations include decoding DCI or higher layer signaling received from a base station. The DCI or the higher layer signaling indicates a number of PUSCH repetitions forming the uplink transmissions. The operations further include decoding higher layer signaling received from the base station, the higher layer signaling indicating a size of a time domain window (TDW) associated with the uplink transmissions. The TDW has a number of slots equal to the size. Each of the PUSCH repetitions within the TDW is associated with a same carrier phase and a same transmit power.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2022Publication date: May 30, 2024Inventors: Gang Xiong, Yingyang LI, Sergey Sosnin, Gregory Ermolaev, Debdeep Chatterjee

Publication number: 20240172272Abstract: Various embodiments herein are directed to the request of Msg3 physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetitions. In order to improve the coverage, repetition is supported for Msg3 PUSCH during the 4-step RACH procedure. In this case, either separate PRACH occasions or shared PRACH occasions with separate PRACH preambles may be configured to differentiate the enhanced UE that requests the Msg3 PUSCH repetition and legacy UEs that do not.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2022Publication date: May 23, 2024Inventors: Gang Xiong, Debdeep Chatterjee, Yingyang Li, Sergey Sosnin, Gregory Ermolaev

Publication number: 20240070521Abstract: A layer freezing and data sieving technique used in a sparse training domain for object recognition, providing end-to-end dataset-efficient training. The layer freezing and data sieving methods are seamlessly incorporated into a sparse training algorithm to form a generic framework. The generic framework consistently outperforms prior approaches and significantly reduces training floating point operations per second (FLOPs) and memory costs while preserving high accuracy. The reduction in training FLOPs comes from three sources: weight sparsity, frozen layers, and a shrunken dataset. The training acceleration depends on different factors, e.g., the support of the sparse computation, layer type and size, and system overhead. The FLOPs reduction from the frozen layers and shrunken dataset leads to higher actual training acceleration than weight sparsity.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2022Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Jian Ren, Sergey Tulyakov, Yanyu Li, Geng Yuan
