  • Patent number: 11777577
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first device (e.g., a user equipment (UE)) may receive signaling indicating a set of channel state information (CSI) report configurations for sidelink communications between the first device and a second device. The first device may then receive a request from the second device for a CSI report according to a first CSI report configuration from the set of CSI report configurations. The first device may perform channel measurements based on receiving the request and may generate the CSI report using the channel measurements according to the first CSI configuration. In some cases, the first device may determine whether to additionally generate the CSI report using one or more previous channel measurements based on whether the previous channel measurements were taken according to the same CSI report. The first device may then transmit the generated CSI report to the second device.

  • Patent number: 11770283
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to techniques for peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction based on a tone reservation (TR) algorithm. For a TR algorithm, a suitable subset of tones from among a full set of tones in a given resource allocation are reserved for use as peak reduction tones (PRT). An apparatus, such as a wireless communication device, selects a set of PRTs based on a deterministic pseudo-random tone selection algorithm, such as quadratic sampling, cubic sampling, or Fibonacci-type sampling. The apparatus determines a PAPR reduction waveform for transmission on the PRTs and transmits a data waveform multiplexed with the PAPR reduction waveform on resources corresponding to the resource allocation. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

    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: 20230283331
    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.

  • Patent number: 11742908
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for efficiently transmitting uplink signals to a base station using shared antennas. A first device may be in communications with a base station using local antennas and may identify a second device having auxiliary antennas available for transmitting uplink signals to the base station. Because the local antennas and auxiliary antennas may have different capabilities (e.g., due to different power or other constraints), the first device may generate first uplink signals for transmission using the local antennas differently from second uplink signals for transmission using the auxiliary antennas. The first device may transmit the first uplink signals to the base station using the local antennas and transmit the second uplink signals to the second device for transmission to the base station using the auxiliary antennas based on different configurations.

  • Patent number: 11728945
    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.

  • Publication number: 20230254781
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may select an uplink transmission power sharing configuration to use for transmission of one or more uplink messages. The uplink transmission power sharing configuration may be based on a first uplink transmission power capability of a first radio frequency (RF) chain of the UE and on a second uplink transmission power capability of a second RF chain of the UE. The UE may transmit the one or more uplink messages to a network entity in accordance with the uplink transmission power sharing configuration. Specifically, the UE may transmit the one or more uplink messages via the first RF chain using a first transmission power, and may transmit the one or more uplink messages via the second RF chain using a second transmission power that is different from the first transmission power.

  • Patent number: 11722170
    Abstract: Aspects presented herein may enable a UE to determine whether phase continuity is to be maintained for one or more uplink transmissions when the UE is configured with a frequency-hopping with zero frequency offset. In one aspect, a UE receives, from a network entity, an indication of frequency hopping with zero frequency offset. The UE determines whether phase continuity is to be applied to UL transmissions based on the indication of the frequency hopping with zero frequency offset. The UE transmits, to the network entity, at least one uplink channel with no phase continuity based on the determination to not apply phase continuity to the UL transmissions.

  • Patent number: 11723021
    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.
