  • Publication number: 20240364424
    Abstract: In some embodiments, an optical communication system may include an optical source, a modulator, and a photoreceiver. The optical source may be configured to generate a beam comprising a series of light pulses each having a duration of less than 100 picoseconds. The photoreceiver may have a detection window duration of less than 1 nanosecond. When a first pulse travels through a variably refractive medium, photons in the first pulse may be refracted to travel along different ray paths to arrive at the photoreceiver according to a temporal distribution curve. A full width at half maximum (FWHM) value of the temporal distribution curve may be at least three times as large as a coherence time value of the first pulse, and the detection window of the photoreceiver may be at least six times as large as the FWHM value of the temporal distribution curve.

  • Publication number: 20240365328
    Abstract: A base station transmits one or more radio resource control (RRC) messages comprising transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states for a cell. Each TCI state of the TCI states comprises an indication of a respective physical cell index (PCI). The base station transmits an activation command indicating, for a control resource set (coreset), a first TCI state of the TCI states. The first TCI state comprises a first indication of a first PCI. The base station transmits, via the coreset, a downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH). In response to the first TCI state of the coreset comprising the first indication of the first PCI, the base station transmits the PDSCH based on a second TCI state comprising the first indication of the first PCI.
