Abstract: 5G, New Radio (NR), numerology, receiver issues. The numerology scheme here consists in keeping the bandwidth constant but varying the subcarrier spacing (ie different tone spacing B for data and K*B for control channels), and correspondingly the symbol duration. Control symbols have a wider subcarrier separation but smaller symbol duration (In the case of beamforming reference signals, it would enable to train K beams in one symbol time period). Receiver issues: Embodiment 1 uses different Rx chains for data and control channels with different FFT sizes (size differing by factor K). Embodiment 2 uses a common identical FFT size (the one of the data channel) for both control and data: For the control channel, either repeat each control symbol K times prior to FFT and performs down-sampling afterwards and repeat it for each control symbol, or performs joint processing and FFT for all K control symbols jointly by either time domain linear combination or post FFT frequency processing.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for carrier aggregated beamforming using elevation control. A base station determines a first elevation to be used for transmission to a user device using a first carrier, for example, based on information received from the user device. A second elevation, for transmission to the user device based on the second carrier, is determined based at least in part on the elevation information determined for the first carrier. The first and second carriers may be used by the same base station or by different base stations, and using elevation information determined for the first carrier to determine elevation information for the second carrier avoids computation and signaling needed for separate determination of the elevation information for the second carrier.
