Abstract: According to an example embodiment, a client device is configured to: obtain a signal sequence configuration defining a plurality of signal sequences, wherein each signal sequence in the plurality of signal sequences corresponds to an uplink transmission power level in a plurality of uplink transmission power levels; transmit the plurality of signal sequences according to the signal sequence configuration to a network node device; receive, from the network node device, an indication about an uplink transmission power level out of the plurality of uplink transmission power levels to be used for uplink transmission; and perform an uplink transmission using the indicated uplink transmission power level to the network node device.

Abstract: Devices, methods and computer programs for adjusting a client device receiver parameter are disclosed. A client device (200) transmits to a network node device (210) a first capability indication indicating at least a low-resolution analog-to-digital converter capability of the client device (200), and a second capability indication indicating whether the client device (200) is capable of receiving signal information associated with low-resolution receiver processing. Based on these, the network node device (210) may determine that adjusting at least one receiver parameter of the client device (200) is needed, generate and transmit network assistance information and signal information to the client device (200) for use in adjusting at least one receiver parameter of the client device (200). The client device (200) may then perform power measurements of the received signal information and adjust receiver parameter(s) of the client device (200) accordingly.

Abstract: There is provided an apparatus comprising means for for, at a user equipment configured to transmit precoded signals using receive beamformers as transmit precoders over at least one of a plurality of transmission occasions and multiple antenna subsets, receiving configuration parameters, from a network node, for at least one of the precoded signals and the transmit precoders, determining power scaling values based on the configuration parameters, performing power scaling of the transmit precoders using the determined power scaling values, providing an indication to the network node of the determined power scaling values and performing transmission of precoded signals using the transmit precoders scaled by the determined power scaling values.

Abstract: An example method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium are provided for enabling beam based discovery and direct connectivity using network assisted beam discovery and corresponding signaling to at least reduce sweep time and beam acquisition for D2D discovery operations. In an example implementation, the method may include determining, by a network device of a communication network, information comprising including an indication of at least one of data, a control element, or a relative reference point for identifying a beam sweeping angular spread for device-to-device discovery operations for device-to-device communication. The example method may further include sending towards a set of network nodes the information for the device-to-device discovery in the communication network.
