Patent number: 11622243Abstract: Certain embodiments are directed to techniques (e.g., a device, a method, or a non-transitory computer readable medium storing code or instructions executable by one or more processors) for many-to-many communication techniques for coordinating communications among a group of mobile devices that can be performed by a first mobile devices. The first mobile device can transmit a request to establish outgoing pairwise ranging sessions with other mobile devices of the group. Each of the mobile devices of the group of mobile devices can establish ranging sessions with the other mobile devices. Each mobile device can act as both an initiating device and a responding device for the ranging session. The first mobile device can detect one or more redundant ranging sessions the mobile devices. The first mobile device can identify whether to keep or terminate each of the one or more redundant ranging sessions based on a common criterion.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2021Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Yagil Burowski, Robert W.

Patent number: 11617143Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a sidelink synchronization signal and may identify a set of parameters (e.g., cyclic shifts or orthogonal cover codes) that are configured for generating a set of reference signals for transmission within a sidelink broadcast resource based on receiving the sidelink synchronization signal. The UE may transmit, within the sidelink broadcast channel resource, a first reference signal of the set of reference signals that is generated based on applying, to a reference signal sequence, a first parameter of the set of parameters that is orthogonal to a second parameter of the set of parameters that is applied to the reference signal sequence to generate a second reference signal of the set of reference signals.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2020Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Shuanshuan Wu, Kapil Gulati, Gabi Sarkis, Sudhir Kumar Baghel

Patent number: 11611959Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). The present disclosure provides a method of receiving downlink channel and/or downlink reference signal on an unlicensed band. An LTE user equipment (UE) receives control information of a cell operating on an unlicensed band, and receives downlink channel and/or downlink reference signal transmitted in the cell according to the control information. According to the present disclosure, data can be properly received on an unlicensed band.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2019Date of Patent: March 21, 2023Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Jingxing Fu, Yingyang Li

Patent number: 11611961Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit uplink (UL) messages in unlicensed spectrum with a reduced UL timing delay. The UL timing delay may be reduced by using a shortened transmission time interval (TTI) (e.g., a TTI that is reduced in duration relative to other TTIs in the system or in a legacy system) or by reducing the number of TTIs between a grant and the corresponding UL message. The reduced UL timing delay may decrease the likelihood that the UE will wait for a subsequent transmit opportunity (TxOp) to transmit the UL message. In some cases, the reduced UL timing delay corresponds to a reduced hybrid automatic repeat request (HARM) processing delay. In some cases, a time difference (e.g., measured in TTIs) between a measurement reference TTI a corresponding channel state information (CSI) report may also be reduced.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2021Date of Patent: March 21, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Seyedkianoush Hosseini, Srinivas Yerramalli, Wanshi Chen, Jing Sun, Hao Xu, Shimman Arvind Patel

Patent number: 11601976Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A wireless device (base station or UE) may receive an indication of a listen before talk (LBT) gap for sharing a channel occupancy time (COT), the COT being acquired by another wireless device (base station or UE), and detect whether a slot within the COT is occupied by the other wireless device, the slot occurring prior to the LBT gap. The wireless device may also, responsive to detecting that the slot is occupied by the other wireless device, perform an LBT procedure during the LBT gap, and, responsive to a successful LBT procedure, transmit a signal to the other wireless device within the COT.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2020Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Yisheng Xue, Xiaoxia Zhang, Chih-Hao Liu, Aleksandar Damnjanovic, Jing Sun, Yongbin Wei

Patent number: 11601244Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A control resource set (CORESET) may be configured to support multiple transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state control channels. Space division multiplexing (SDM) may be implemented to enable multi-TCI states by using multiple ports and layers. A certain layer and demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port may be associated with a certain TCI state. For orthogonal ports, resources elements (REs) may be assigned such that a first set of REs are assigned to the first DMRS port and a second set of REs are assigned to the second port. The multiple DMRS ports may be code division multiplexed (CDM'd) within an RE such that multiple DMRS ports may be associated with the same RE. For non-orthogonal ports, the same RE may be used for multiple TCI states, where scrambling sequences may be applied to DMRSs associated with the TCI states.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2020Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Mostafa Khoshnevisan, Xiaoxia Zhang, Tao Luo, Jing Sun, Arumugam Chendamarai Kannan, Sungwoo Park
