  • Patent number: 11432230
    Abstract: Aspects of disclosure relate to a UE reporting to a gNB time delays and phases of pilot signals received via multiple transmission paths in order for the gNB to pre-equalize a future transmission to the UE. The UE determines a first time delay for receiving a first pilot signal from a gNB via a first path, determines a second time delay for receiving a second pilot signal from the gNB via a second path, and generates a report based on the first time delay and the second time delay. The UE then sends the report to the gNB and receives a multi-TRP signal from the gNB via the first path and the second path, wherein the multi-TRP signal is pre-equalized for transmission based on the report to at least have a same time delay as a shorter one of the first time delay or the second time delay.

  • Patent number: 11419109
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for latency minimization in wireless communications employing multi-level coding and multi-level sequential demodulation and decoding are described. A user equipment (UE) receive a set of codeblock groups in a first time period. Each codeblock group jointly sharing same channel resources may be associated with a respective decoding level of a set of decoding levels. The UE may determine a first outcome for a first codeblock group and a second outcome for a second codeblock group. The UE may then transmit a feedback message that is based on the first outcome and the second outcome. In case that the feedback message indicates that the first outcome or the second outcome is a failed decoding procedure, the UE may receive, in a second time period, a retransmission of all the codeblock groups. These retransmissions may continue on additional time periods until all related codeblock groups are successfully decoded.

  • Publication number: 20220255778
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit signaling that configures a wireless device to use a multi-level coding (MLC) procedure to communicate with a base station. Based on receiving the signaling, the wireless device may select a channel quality indicator (CQI) index from a set of CQI indices that are associated with an MLC procedure. In some examples, the wireless device selects the CQI index from a set of CQI indices that includes both bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM)-based and MLC-based CQI indices. In other examples, the wireless device selects the CQI index from a set of CQI indices that includes solely MLC-based CQI indices. The wireless device may transmit the selected CQI index to the base station. And the base station may select a modulation and coding scheme for subsequent transmissions to the wireless device based on the received CQI index.

  • Patent number: 11405155
    Abstract: Wireless communication techniques that utilize a general purpose (GP) reference signal for non-coherent millimeter-wave communication are discussed. The GP reference signal may have a special structure allowing it to be flexibly used by a mobile device for multiple purposes. A base station may determine a repetition factor for a repetitive intra-symbol GP reference signal mapping based on an event that triggered transmission of the GP reference signal. The base station may also map the GP reference signal to resource elements of a symbol based, at least in part, on the determined repetition factor of the repetitive intra-symbol GP reference signal mapping. The base station may also transmit the mapped GP reference signal. A mobile device may receive the GP reference signal and modify at least one parameter of a plurality of parameters based, at least in part, on processing of the GP reference signal.

  • Publication number: 20220225312
    Abstract: In embodiments, a base station may send to a user equipment (UE) a P3 beam management (BM) channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) having two ports, and may receive from the UE a P3 BM report in response. The P3 BM report may include a proactive UE beam switch indication and a CSF report corresponding to the best UE beam determined by a UE based on the P3 BM CSI-RS. The base station may determine whether the P3 BM report includes an indication that the UE will perform a beam switch from a first UE beam to a second UE beam, and may determine a UE beam switch slot during which the UE will perform the beam switch. Starting at the beam switch slot, the base station may send a physical downlink shared data channel (PDSCH) transmission to the UE using the adjusted downlink transmission parameters.

  • Publication number: 20220225311
    Abstract: A base station may receive from a user equipment (UE) a proactive notification that the UE will perform a beam switch from a first UE beam to a second UE beam. In response, the base station may determine a beam switch slot on which the UE will perform the synchronized beam switch, and perform a link transient mitigation operation for communications with the UE after UE beam switch and until updating channel state information associated with a new UE beam. The base station may then receive from the UE channel state information feedback for a channel associated with the second UE beam, and adjust downlink data transmission parameters to be aligned with the second UE beam based on the received channel state information feedback (CSF). The base station may also adjust uplink data transmission parameters based on a sounding reference signal transmitted by the UE over the second UE beam.

  • Publication number: 20220191877
    Abstract: A transmitting device may select frequency domain resources for an alert transmission based on a severity level of the alert transmission. The transmitting device may determine a severity level of an alert transmission to be transmitted on one or more available channels. The transmitting device may determine a presence of one or more systems configured to transmit on one or more neighbor channels of the one or more available channels. The transmitting device may select, for the alert transmission, frequency domain resources within the one or more available channels based on the presence of the one or more systems and the severity level. The frequency domain resources for a highest severity level transmission are spaced further apart from the one or more neighbor channels in the frequency domain than resources for a lower severity level transmission. The transmitting device may transmit the alert transmission on the frequency domain resources.

    Abstract: A method detecting allocation collisions from transmitting user equipments (UEs) in sidelink channel resources. The colliding allocations are detected and the quantity of allocation collisions is determined. A collision report is transmitted to other sidelink UEs within the coverage zone. The collision report or collision notification provides an indication of sidelink resources having identified colliding allocations. The identified allocation collisions may be pruned to remove potentially intentional collisions before collision report transmission.

    Abstract: A method includes cellular vehicle-to-everything (CV2X) allocation collision detection and reporting. An allocation collision detection module detects control channel allocations from transmitting user equipments (UEs) in each time period of a group of time periods. A quantity of detected control channel allocations is determined in each time period. A report is then built and transmitted to at least one of the transmitting UEs. The report indicates collisions in each time period, based on the quantity and a location of the detected control channels in each time period, as well as based on a type of UE interface.
