  • Publication number: 20200220676
    Abstract: An apparatus and method in a wireless communication system and a computer readable storage medium. The apparatus comprises a processing circuit, which is configured to: configure a sounding reference signal (SRS) mapping structure for a user equipment on the basis of at least the number of antenna ports of the user equipment and the number of transmitting beams and/or receiving beams to be scanned; and notify the user equipment of the SRS mapping structure, wherein the SRS mapping structure at least comprises SRS resource settings for achieving uplink beam management and channel state information (CSI) acquisition at the same time, thereby reducing the system time delay and improving the uplink resource utilization rate.

  • Publication number: 20200220605
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a processing circuit configured to: receive information about a number N of candidate transmit beams from a user device, wherein N is an integer greater than 1; select from the N candidate transmit beams a transmit beam for sending downlink information to the user device; and determine, on the basis of the selected transmit beam, a transmission configuration indication (TCI) state, and send the TCI state to the user device. The electronic device, the wireless communication method and the computer readable storage medium enable a network-side device to notify the user device of the information about transmit beams. In this way, the user device can determine, according to the transmit beam of the network-side device, a proper receiving beam so as to improve the gain of the system.

  • Publication number: 20200186264
    Abstract: Provided are an electronic device and a method in a radio communication system. The electronic device comprises a processing circuit. The processing circuit is configured to determine, based on information indicating inter-cell interference and information indicating intra-cell interference fed back by multiple user equipment, a transmission resource configuration regarding the multiple user equipment. According to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, it can effectively solve the problem that system overheads for determining multi-user pairing significantly increase due to the presence of a large number of user equipment to be paired when multi-user multiple-input and multiple-output (MU-MIMO) transmission is performed, while system fairness and throughputs are also achieved.
