摘要:
A first wireless communication device (14-1) belongs to a first (12-1) of multiple groups (12) of wireless communication devices (14). Devices (14) in any given group (12) are synchronized to the same timing reference and devices (14) in different groups (12) are not synchronized to the same timing reference. The first device (14-1) receives a message that indicates, for each of one or more of the groups (12), a range of possible values for misalignment between the timing reference of that group (12) and a common timing reference. The range accounts for uncertainty in that misalignment. The first device (14-1) determines, based on the one or more ranges, intervals of times during which direct control signaling is expected to be received at the first device (14-1) from one or more devices (14) in one or more other groups (12-2, 12-3). The first device (14-1) then adjusts intervals of times during which it is configured to operate in an awake state to narrowly encompass the intervals of times during which the direct control signaling is expected to be received.

User Equipment, UE (30), in a wireless radiocommunication network (10) supporting Coordinated Multi-Point, CoMP, transmissions may autonomously adopt an assumption of the quasi co-located (QCL) status of two (or more) antenna ports that is different from the default QCL status defined or signaled by the network (10), in response to one or more estimates of certain operating parameter values. The altered QCL status assumption allows the UE (30) to correct parameter estimates more accurately, and/or to reduce complexity in the parameter estimation correction.

The embodiments herein relate to a method in a network node (103), a network node (103), a method in a user equipment (105) and a user equipment for handling base sequences in a communications network (100). The network node (103) is configured to communicate with a first user equipment (105). The network node (103) comprises information about a default base sequence and an alternative base sequence. The network node (103) determines (405, 505, 901), for the first user equipment (105), that the alternative base sequence should replace the default base sequence. The network node (103) sends (406, 506, 902) information about the determined alternative base sequence to the first user equipment (105).

According to some embodiments, a method of device-to-device (D2D) communication comprises obtaining a division of radio resources. The division of radio resources comprises a first plurality of pools of a first periodicity. Each of the first plurality of pools comprises a set of radio resources and a plurality of patterns spanning the set of radio resources. The division of radio resources also comprises a division of the first plurality of pools into a second plurality of pools of a second periodicity greater than the first periodicity. Each of the second plurality of pools comprises a plurality of patterns comprising a union of the plurality of patterns of each pool of the first plurality pools that are included within the pool of the second plurality of pools. The method further comprises determining a pattern from one of the first or second plurality of pools, and using it to transmit the message.
摘要:
A wireless communication system (10) comprises multiple groups (12) of wireless communication devices (14). The devices (14) within any given group (12) are synchronized to the same timing reference and devices (14) in different groups (12) are not synchronized to the same timing reference. A device (14) transmits direct control signaling to other devices (14) according to the timing reference of its group (12). A method in the system (10) is implemented by a radio node (16) associated with one of the groups (12). The method includes generating (110) a message that indicates, for each of one or more of the groups (12), a range of possible values for misalignment between the timing reference of that group (12) and a common timing reference. This range accounts for uncertainty in that misalignment. The method also entails transmitting (120) the message from the radio node (16).
