  • Patent number: 11638305
    Abstract: A UE may receive, from a base station/TRP, a configuration for a beam pair including an UL beam and a DL beam and transmit a RACH message via the UL beam while receiving DL information via the DL beam. The UE and/or the base station/TRP may be configured to operate in a FD mode. In aspects, the UE may transmit a RACH preamble based on a first mode of transmission. After a threshold time delay measured from the transmission of the RACH preamble, the UE may retransmit the RACH preamble based on a second mode of transmission. The second mode of transmission may be a same mode of transmission or a different mode of transmission from the first mode of transmission. Each mode of transmission may be based on one or more of TDM, FDM, or SDM.

  • Publication number: 20230105748
    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatuses for adjustment of transmit powers for different transmissions of a reference signal. Some techniques and apparatuses described herein provide semi-static configuration or dynamic signaling such that a transmit power of a reference signal such as a synchronization signal block (SSB) or a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) can be modified from transmission-to-transmission. Additionally, this disclosure provides modification of a transmit power of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) from transmission-to-transmission, such as using semi-static configuration or dynamic signaling. By modifying transmit power of an SSB, CSI-RS, or PDSCH, a network node may reduce interference and enable full-duplex or enhanced duplex operation. Furthermore, the network node may conserve energy by modifying transmit power.

  • Patent number: 11616545
    Abstract: Multiple mobility sets are maintained for nodes of radio networks. The sets comprise information such as: transmit and receive point identities; cell identities; beam identities; frequency channels; channel bandwidth; and black lists. The sets may be defined at different levels, such as network and physical (PHY) level. A network mobility set, e.g., a new-radio (NR) mobility set may, be determined by the gNB, the cell, the UE, or another device. Multiple radio access network nodes and UEs may exchange mobility set information to achieve a distributed mobility solution. A UE may monitor its orientation relative to a TRP, e.g., via use of an onboard MEMS gyroscope, and alter its beamforming parameters in response to changes in orientation and/or changes in TRP connection strength. Cell selection and reselection for beam based networks may use Single Frequency Network (SFN) broadcast of initial access signals without beam sweeping.
