  • Publication number: 20250150320
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A wireless device may perform, on a set of information bits, a distribution matching procedure to obtain a distributed amplitude symbol sequence. In some cases, the wireless device may perform the distribution matching procedure using approximations of quantities of distributed amplitude symbol sequences that each have a same length and a same transmission energy. The wireless device may then encode the distributed amplitude symbol sequence and transmit the encoded distributed amplitude sequence. A device that receives the encoded distributed amplitude sequence may perform a distribution dematching procedure on the distributed amplitude sequence based on approximating quantities of distributed amplitude symbol sequences.

  • Publication number: 20250142389
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive from a network entity, a control message triggering the UE to provide a time-domain aperiodic channel state information (A-CSI) report for indicating time-domain channel state information (CSI) associated with CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) resources within an observation window, where a beginning of the observation window is based on when the control message is received. The UE may perform performing measurements of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs) received via the CSI-RS resources that occur within the observation window. The UE may then transmit, to the network entity based on the control message, the time-domain A-CSI report indicating measured time-domain CSI associated with the observation window, where the measured time-domain CSI is based on the measurements.

  • Publication number: 20250088230
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In one aspect, the described techniques provide for identifying interference signals on multiple layers or resources and determining whether the interference signals transmitted on a particular layer or resource were precoded using linear precoding (LP) or NLP. In this aspect, a receiving device may equalize signals received from a transmitting device (e.g., filter out interference signals) based on determining whether the interference signals were precoded using a first type of precoding (e.g., linear precoding (LP)) or a second type of precoding (e.g., NLP). In another aspect, the described techniques provide for performing interference measurements on signals precoded using NLP based on categorizing interference resources as being precoded using LP or NLP. In this aspect, a receiving device may perform and report measurements differently for interference signals precoded using LP and interference signals precoded using NLP.
