Patent number: 11963213Abstract: Wireless communication devices, systems, and methods related to mechanisms to implement improved interference tracking over time. A BS may transmit information to a UE that allows the UE to quantize channel measurements into interference states. The UE may transmit an interference change report as triggered by an event, such as an interference metric exceeding a threshold after quantizing into the interference states. This enables the system to capture and respond to abrupt changes. Further, the interference change report may include historic interference information. The UE may include statistics based on the historic interference information. The UE may further be triggered to transmit an interference change report in response to a BS requesting it, or in response to a configured period of time elapsing. The UE may further include MCS information predicted for one or more future time periods based on historic information, which the BS may use in scheduling.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Jay Kumar Sundararajan, Ahmed Elshafie, Yi Huang, Wanshi Chen, Naga Bhushan, Prashanth Haridas Hande, Yeliz Tokgoz, Krishna Kiran Mukkavilli, Wei Yang, Saadallah Kassir

Patent number: 11949618Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A configuration for a reference signal used to determine a non-linear behavior of transmission components at a transmitting device may be determined. The configuration for the reference signal may be determined based on signaling transmitted by the transmitting device, signaling transmitted by a device that receives the reference signal, or both. Additionally, or alternatively, the configuration for the reference signal may be determined based on a configuration of other signals transmitted by the transmitting device prior to or concurrently with the transmission of the reference signal.

Patent number: 11916826Abstract: Systems and techniques are disclosed to enhance the efficiency of available bandwidth between UEs and base stations. A UE transmits a sounding reference signal (SRS) to the base station. The base station characterizes the uplink channel based on the SRS received and, using reciprocity, applies the channel characterization for the downlink channel. As part of applying the channel information, the base station forms the beam to the UE based on the uplink channel information obtained from the SRS. The UE may include an array of antennas, each UE transmitting a different SRS that the base station receives and uses to characterize the downlink. Multiple UEs (or a single UE with multiple antennas) transmit SRS at the same time and frequency allocation (non-orthogonal), but with each sending its own unique SRS. Further, multiple UEs (or a single UE with multiple antennas) may send their SRS at unique time/frequency allocations (orthogonal).Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Joseph Binamira Soriaga, Jing Jiang, Krishna Kiran Mukkavilli, Pavan Kumar Vitthaladevuni, Naga Bhushan, Tingfang Ji, John Edward Smee
