  • Publication number: 20250088330
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit a sounding reference signal (SRS) in multiple slots. A network entity may determine precoding weights in three domains based on the SRS and output reference signals that are precoded based on the precoding weights. The network entity may output control signaling that indicates reference signal resource grouping information that the UE is to use for channel estimations. The reference signal resource grouping information may specify whether the ports in one group are precoded with identical or different spatial, frequency, and time domain weights. A UE may receive the precoded reference signals and the grouping information and report estimated channel metrics and an indication of selected ports per group to the network entity. The network entity may determine precoding in three domains for subsequent downlink communications.

  • 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.

  • Publication number: 20250080177
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for enabling a network equipment to reduce interference for downlink (DL) transmissions to a first device by determining a transmit precoding matrix indicator (TPMI) for uplink (UL) transmissions transmitted by a second device based on feedback from the first device. The first device may determine a subset of possible TPMIs that the second device may use for UL transmissions for full-duplex communications. The first device may indicate the subset to the network equipment. Based on the subset indicated by the first device, the network equipment may determine a pairing of the first device and the second device for full-duplex communications. Additionally, the network equipment may determine a TPMI for the second device to use in UL transmissions and indicate the TPMI to the second device.

  • Publication number: 20250016819
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for prioritization schemes for prioritizing colliding cross-link interference (CLI) measurements scheduled via Layer-1 signaling and a downlink transmissions scheduled according to periodic configurations.

In some examples, the UE may prioritize a colliding CLI measurement and downlink transmission based on an indicated priority of each, a type a CLI measurement, a type of downlink transmission, and/or a location of the UE within the cell. The UE may either monitor for the downlink transmission or perform the CLI measurement based on the priority scheme.

  • Patent number: 12191953
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may determine to use one or more channel state information (CSI) omission configurations for omitting portions of a CSI report. For example, a UE may receive a trigger to report CSI, and the UE may identify that a payload of the CSI report exceeds a capacity of resources for transmitting the report. As such, the UE may determine to use one or more CSI omission configurations, where each CSI omission configuration may correspond to dropping different portions of the CSI report. The selection of the CSI omission configuration to use may be based on a set of parameters associated with CSI reporting. In some cases, the UE selects the CSI omission configuration based on an explicit indication from the base station. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may implicitly determine the CSI omission configuration based on the parameters.

  • Publication number: 20250007586
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described to support reducing a time domain selectivity of a downlink channel with multiple signal paths. A base station may spatially precode multiple channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs) and transmit the spatially precoded CSI-RSs to a user equipment (UE), where at least one spatially precoded CSI-RS may correspond to each signal path. Based on the spatially precoded CSI-RSs, the UE may determine a mean or average Doppler shift for each signal path. The UE may transmit, to the base station, signaling indicative of the respective average Doppler shifts for each signal path. Based on the indication of the Doppler shifts, the base station may spatially and temporally precode one or more downlink transmissions to the UE, which may reduce the time domain selectivity of the downlink channel.

  • Patent number: 12166547
    Abstract: Enhanced hybrid channel state information (CSI) reference signal (CSI-RS) for full dimension multiple input, multiple output (FD-MIMO) is discussed in which a base station configures a first CSI-RS resource for non-precoded CSI-RS and a second CSI-RS resource for beamformed CSI-RS. The first and second CSI-RS resources are associated with the same CSI process in a hybrid CSI-RS operation. The UE provides a first CSI report including a first rank and precoding matrix indicator (PMI) based on measurement of the non-precoded CSI-RS. The base station may use this first CSI process. CSI report for the beamforming of the beamformed CSI-RS. The UE further provides a second CSI report including a second rank, second PMI, and CQI based on measurement of the beamformed CSI-RS. Additional aspects may provide for a base station to aggregate multiple two-port CSI-RS resource configurations into a single multiport CSI-RS resource configuration that may be dynamically shared between different UEs.
