  • Publication number: 20240251271
    Abstract: Some aspects relate to apparatuses and methods for a wireless system implementing mechanisms to transmit a measurement report using physical layer (L1) carrying a sounding reference signal (SRS) reference signal received power (SRS-RSRP) measurement to provide an indication of cross link interference (CLI) between a first user equipment (UE) and a second UE. The first UE can determine a channel state information (CSI) configuration received from the base station; and configure, based on the CSI configuration, a channel measurement resource (CMR) to include a SRS received from the second UE. The first UE can measure the SRS to obtain a SRS-RSRP measurement, generate a measurement report having the SRS-RSRP measurement, and transmit the measurement report to the base station using L1.

  • Publication number: 20240244612
    Abstract: Systems and methods for associating phase tracking reference signal (PTRS) and demodulation reference signal (DMRS) ports for multi-beam physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmissions are described herein. A base station may provide, to a user equipment (UE), PTRS and DMRS port associations for the multiple beams on which the PUSCH is transmitted. In some cases, a 2-bit downlink control information (DCI) field may be used to alternatively provide single beam or multiple beam PTRS and DMRS port associations to a UE. For non-codebook (NCB) based transmissions, the UE may alternatively determine PTRS and DMRS port associations for multiple beams independently of any PTRS and DMRS port association indicated in DCI.

  • Publication number: 20240244630
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. To monitor a PDCCH for CA, a UE may receive PDCCH candidates in a plurality of configured component carriers (CCs). In response to a determination that a maximum number of virtual CCs that the UE is capable of monitoring for PDCCH is smaller than a number of the plurality of configured CCs, the UE groups the plurality of configured CCs into CC groups based at least in part on SCS numerologies and PDCCH monitoring configurations corresponding to span patterns within a slot of a DL subframe. The UE determines a maximum number of blind decoding operations and non-overlapped CCEs for each of the CC groups. The UE then monitors at least a first portion of the PDCCH candidates based on the maximum number of blind decoding operations and non-overlapped CCEs for each of the CC groups.
