  • Patent number: 11979877
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may reduce a transmission power of a scheduled downlink message relative to an expected transmission power of the scheduled downlink message in response to determining that the scheduled downlink message will cause at least a threshold level of interference with a concurrently scheduled uplink message. The base station may transmit the scheduled downlink message to a user equipment (UE) using the reduced transmission power and may transmit, to the UE an indication of a power adjustment for a downlink measurement of the scheduled downlink message. The UE may receive the indication after receiving the scheduled downlink message and may adjust the downlink measurement in accordance with the indication of the power adjustment.

  • Publication number: 20240147270
    Abstract: A first user equipment (UE) receives a configuration of a channel state information (CSI) report from a base station. The configuration includes an indication of a sounding reference signal (SRS) or uplink demodulation reference signal (DMRS) transmitted from a second UE as an interference measurement resource (IMR). The base station configures the second UE to transmit the SRS or the uplink DMRS on the IMR. The first UE measures the IMR to determine a cross-link interference of the second UE to the first UE. The UE transmits the CSI report. The CSI report includes at least one channel characteristic that takes into account the cross-link interference of the second UE. The CSI report may include information for a plurality of CSI-RS resource indicators (CRIs), each CRI associated with a same channel measurement resource (CMR) and a different IMR corresponding to a different second UE.
