  • Combining synchronization sequences of different lengths
    Patent number: 11044133
    Abstract: A system and method for generating a composite synchronization sequence in a communication system. In one embodiment, the apparatus is configured to provide a first synchronization sequence and a second synchronization sequence in a first domain, transform the first synchronization sequence and the second synchronization sequence into a second domain, and extend the first synchronization sequence and the second synchronization sequence in the second domain to a common length to produce an extended first synchronization sequence and an extended second synchronization sequence. The apparatus is also configured to transform the extended first synchronization sequence and the extended second synchronization sequence into the first domain, and multiply elementwise the extended first synchronization sequence by the extended second synchronization sequence in the first domain to obtain a composite synchronization sequence.

  • Ultra-protected scheduling
    Patent number: 10791568
    Abstract: Systems and methods for ultra-protected scheduling are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method of operation of a first node includes determining a part of radio resources on which some traffic types can only be scheduled using ultra-protected scheduling messages. The method also includes scheduling a second node to use the part of the radio resources using an ultra-protected scheduling message. In some embodiments, the part of the radio resources is used for Ultra Reliable Communication (URC) and scheduling the second node to use the part of the radio resources for non-URC transmissions. In this way, there may be reduced risk that any node incorrectly transmits in the part of the radio resources and interferes with traffic on the part.

The frame (800) comprises one first set of time-frequency resources (801) reserved for control information, and a second set of time-frequency resources (802) reserved for data. The first node (511) determines that a third set (803) is to be used for communication of information with a third communication node (513). The information is control information, data information, or one or more signals related to one or more measurement procedures. The first node (511) determines a direction of communication in the third set (803), based on the information to be communicated. The first node (511) performs transmission or reception to or from the third node (513) in the determined direction, and in the third set (803).

The method comprises determining whether to restrict transmission of a random access preamble during at least a portion of a synchronization signal (SS) burst set. The SS burst set comprises at least one SS block indicated as being transmitted. In certain embodiments, the method/wireless device/computer program code further comprises transmitting the random access preamble during a time that transmission of the random access preamble is not restricted.

  • Network architecture, methods, and devices for a wireless communications network
    Patent number: 10367677
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus in a fifth-generation wireless communications network, including an example method, in a wireless device, that includes determining a reporting quality threshold for a parameter related to channel state information (CSI); performing a measurement for each of a plurality of beams from a first predetermined set of beams for evaluation; evaluating the measurement for each of the plurality of beams against the reporting quality threshold; discontinuing the performing and evaluating of measurements in response to determining that the reporting quality threshold is met for one of the beams, such that one or more beams in the first predetermined set of beams are not measured and evaluated; and reporting, to the wireless communications network, CSI for the one of the beams.

  • Hopping synchronization signals
    Patent number: 10361747
    Abstract: A method of synchronizing transmission of signals from a network node to a receiver includes generating a synchronization signal transmission pattern in which transmission resources used for transmission of the synchronization signals in regularly spaced time intervals are changed in successive ones of the time intervals, and transmitting synchronization signals from the network node in accordance with the synchronization signal transmission pattern. Related network nodes and user equipment nodes are disclosed.
