  • RADIO CHANNEL ESTIMATION IN A RADIO NODE
    Publication number: 20240039767
    Abstract: Radio channel estimation in a radio node is provided. The radio node is configured to receive a number of wideband reference symbols corresponding to a wideband radio channel having a wideband bandwidth and convert the wideband reference symbols into a number of wideband taps each having a complex value and associated with a respective beam direction and a respective tap delay. The radio node dynamically determines a wideband power threshold based on channel information related to the wideband channel. Accordingly, the radio node determines a subset of the wideband taps based on the wideband power threshold and generates a channel estimate for the wideband radio channel based on the subset of wideband taps. As a result, the radio node may create a more accurate channel estimation across the wider channel bandwidth over a large span of SNR conditions.

  • NETWORK NODE, USER EQUIPMENT, AND METHODS IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK
    Publication number: 20230379193
    Abstract: A method performed by a network node for handling channel feature estimates associated with a radio channel between a User Equipment, UE, and the network node in a wireless communications network is provided. The network node obtains a channel feature estimates associated to the radio channel estimated at a first point in time. Data representing the channel feature estimates has a first size. The network node compresses the channel feature estimates at the first point in time by replacing them with updated channel feature estimates that at the subsequent point in time fulfils a respective threshold condition. The data representing the updated channel feature estimates has a second size. The second size is smaller than the first size. The network node then adjusts parameters for a transmission at the radio channel based on the updated channel feature estimates.
