  • 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.

  • Publication number: 20230009137
    Abstract: Techniques for peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction are described. Wireless devices may use one or more PAPR shaping resources, such as expanded bandwidth and/or pulse-shaping filtering, for shaping a signal to reduce PAPR. For example, expanded bandwidth may be utilized for adding a cyclic affix (CA), such as may comprise a cyclic prefix (CP), cyclic suffix (CS), etc., and combinations thereof, to a frequency domain data signal to provide a CP augmented frequency domain data signal used to generate a reduced PAPR time domain data signal. Additionally or alternatively, pulse-shaping filtering may be applied to a frequency domain signal to provide a pulse-shaped frequency domain data signal used to generate a reduced PAPR time domain data signal. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

  • Patent number: 11516066
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE), that is configured for demodulation reference signal (DMRS) bundling, may receive a control message that schedules first and second sets of repetitions of an uplink transmission. The UE may determine a phase coherency configuration to be applied for DMRS transmissions corresponding to each set of repetitions. The phase coherency configuration may be determined based on a phase coherency capability of the UE, and the phase coherency configuration may specify that phase coherency is to be maintained for one or more of the first set of repetitions separate from one or more of the second set of repetitions. The UE may transmit the first set of repetitions with a first set of demodulation reference signals and the second set of repetitions with a second set of demodulation reference signals in accordance with the phase coherency configuration.

  • Publication number: 20220373634
    Abstract: During positioning of a user equipment (UE), downlink (DL) positioning reference signals (PRS) transmitted by one or more transmission reception point (TRP) in a wireless communication system may be preempted or punctured by higher priority transmissions, such as ultra-reliable low-latency traffic (URLLC). A PRS preemption indication (PI) may be provided to a UE by a serving TRP identifying one or more TRPs affected by preemption. The PRS PI may further identify the time domain and frequency domain of the preempted DL PRS transmissions. The PRS PI may identify the time domain, e.g., based on a number of PRS symbols between two monitoring occasions, wherein only PRS symbols that contain downlink positioning reference signals associated with the group of TRPs are counted. The PRS PI may identify the frequency domain by identifying at least one of four or more frequency sub-bands of the preempted DL PRS transmissions.

  • Publication number: 20220376756
    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.

  • Publication number: 20220369334
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to techniques for managing uplink power control in accordance with priority-specific beta factors. An example method for wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE) generally includes determining a value of a beta factor based on a priority level of uplink control information (UCI) to be transmitted on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH); and transmitting the UCI on the PUSCH with transmit power determined based, at least in part, on the value of beta factor. Another example method performed by a UE generally includes deciding, when the UE is configured to perform demodulation reference signal (DMRS) bundling across PUSCH repetitions, whether to prioritize the DMRS bundling or transmission of UCI multiplexed in one of the PUSCH repetitions; and transmitting the PUSCH repetition with the multiplexed UCI in accordance with the decision.

  • Publication number: 20220369245
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may use dynamic power aggregation techniques to perform instantaneous transmit power adjustments in an uplink carrier aggregation configuration. For example, the UE may dynamically adjust the instantaneous transmit power with network assistance. In some cases, the base station may configure a set of power aggregation parameters to control the instantaneous transmit power behavior of the UE. The UE may adjust the instantaneous transmit power in accordance with the power aggregation parameters. In some other cases, the base station may configure the UE to report one or more parameters. Based on the report, the base station may determine a power aggregation configuration for the UE in a time interval. In some other cases, the UE may be configured to scale the instantaneous transmit power for individual component carriers in the carrier aggregation configuration.
