  • Patent number: 11611379
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a base station may identify a null space matrix that lies within a null space of an effective channel matrix for communications between the base station and a user equipment (UE). An indication of the null space matrix may be provided to the UE, and the null space matrix used to determine modifications to a precoding matrix. The base station and UE may determine a redistribution matrix that provides a reduced variance of transmission powers for a number of transmission channels, where a product of the null space matrix and the redistribution matrix may be computed and added to the precoding matrix to generate a modified precoding matrix. The modified precoding matrix may be used to generate the communications from the base station and UE with reduced power variance across channels.

  • Publication number: 20230072214
    Abstract: User Equipment (UE) receives, from a base station (BS), at least one resource block (RB). The RB includes at least one reference signal (RS) resource element (RE) of a first physical channel of the UE. The UE estimates a channel quality of a second physical channel of the UE as a function of the at least one RS RE. In some examples, the BS associates the transmission of a first physical channel reference signal (RS) and the transmission of a second physical channel RS. The BS then signals, BS to the UE, the association between the first physical channel reference signal and the second physical channel reference signal.

  • Patent number: 11601930
    Abstract: Aspects are provided allowing a UE to perform early termination of repetitions of an ongoing PUSCH transmission in response to a DCI from a base station indicating whether a prior PUSCH transmission or repetition was successfully decoded. The UE obtains information configuring an uplink data transmission and a repetition of the uplink data transmission. The UE sends the uplink data transmission to a base station. The UE terminates the repetition of the uplink data transmission in response to reception of downlink information in a downlink control channel. Thus, UE power reduction and enhanced resource efficiency may be achieved. Moreover, the repetition is terminated after a time gap following a CORESET where the downlink control channel is received. As a result, a start time for terminating PUSCH repetitions may be configured to accommodate various timing considerations such as dynamic TDD, different numerologies between PDCCH and PUSCH, and multiple PUSCH processing capabilities.

  • Publication number: 20230057948
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration for a set of transmission time intervals (TTIs) including at least one TTI to be used for full-duplex communications. The UE may receive control signaling that indicates a frequency domain resource allocation (FDRA) for a physical uplink channel transmission in a first TTI. The UE may determine whether a second TTI is available for transmitting one or more repetitions of the physical uplink channel transmission based on comparing the FDRA to resources allocated to the second TTI. For example, the second TTI may be available if one or more physical resource blocks (PRBs) of the FDRA are non-overlapping in a frequency domain with downlink resources allocated to the second TTI. The UE may transmit the one or more repetitions in the second TTI based on the second TTI being available.

  • Publication number: 20230043462
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) to identify a first set of scheduled transmissions to be received using a first set of time-frequency resources, where reference signals of the first set of transmissions may be bundled according to a first reference signal bundling pattern. The UE may identify a second scheduled transmission to be received using a second set of time-frequency resources that overlaps with the first set of resources. The UE may determine a second reference signal bundling pattern for bundling the reference signals received in the first set of transmissions. For example, the UE may modify the first reference signal bundling pattern to determine the second reference signal bundling pattern. The UE may receive the second scheduled transmission and the first set of scheduled transmissions according to the second reference signal bundling pattern.

  • Publication number: 20230044701
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a user equipment (UE) may perform uplink reference signal bundling for access link communications and transmit sidelink communications using time or frequency division multiplexed resources. The UE may determine to drop or to transmit a sidelink communication based on a relationship with multiple instances of an uplink reference signal that are to maintain phase continuity. The UE may drop a sidelink communication when a time duration between two instances of the uplink reference signal is less than or equal to a time threshold value, and may transmit the sidelink communication when the time duration exceeds the time threshold value. In frequency division multiplexed cases, the UE may set a transmission power for each instance of the uplink reference signal, and the sidelink communication may use a remaining amount of power.

  • Patent number: 11569877
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) having partially coherent antennas may be configured for simultaneous transmissions on groups of antennas. To achieve the benefits of simultaneous transmissions using groups of antenna that are partially coherent, without having the transmissions affect each other, the UE may apply a hybrid closed-loop multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) scheme among each antenna in the antenna groups where phase coherence can be maintained Following the hybrid closed-loop MIMO scheme, the UE may apply a transparent diversity scheme across each antenna of the groups. Alternatively, the UE may first apply the transparent diversity scheme and next apply the hybrid closed-loop MIMO scheme. By applying a hybrid closed-loop MIMO scheme, and a transparent diversity scheme, the UE may fully realize its resources and contribute to an improved spatial diversity for a MIMO system.

  • Publication number: 20230024493
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a user equipment (UE) may be configured to transmit two or more consecutive transmissions that may be used for demodulation reference signal (DMRS) bundling. If criteria for DMRS bundling are not satisfied, the UE may generate dummy data to transmit during the skipped configured grant occasion, and may maintain phase continuity across the skipped configured grant occasion and any other PUSCHs in a set of uplink transmissions. In some examples, the UE may deprioritize DMRS bundling for sets of PUSCHs during which a PUSCH is to be skipped. If criteria for DMRS bundling are not satisfied, the UE may not maintain phase continuity across the set of PUSCHs, and may refrain from transmitting any data during the CG-PUSCH occasion.
