摘要:
Systems and techniques for carrier aggregated beamforming using elevation control. A base station determines a first elevation to be used for transmission to a user device using a first carrier, for example, based on information received from the user device. A second elevation, for transmission to the user device based on the second carrier, is determined based at least in part on the elevation information determined for the first carrier. The first and second carriers may be used by the same base station or by different base stations, and using elevation information determined for the first carrier to determine elevation information for the second carrier avoids computation and signaling needed for separate determination of the elevation information for the second carrier.

A method and apparatus can be configured to transmit a number of azimuth antenna elements. The method can also comprise transmitting a number of elevation antenna elements. The method can also comprise receiving an azimuth precoder-matrix-indicator. The method can also comprise receiving an elevation precoder-matrix-indicator. The method can also comprise transmitting based on the received azimuth precoder-matrix-indicator and the received elevation precoder-matrix-indicator.

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for backhaul scheduling in a multi-hop network are provided. One method includes providing, in the multi-hop network, an uplink control portion and a downlink control portion and a data portion in a slot. The method may further include scheduling, by an access point in the multi-hop network, at least one of a backhaul transmission for the slot or at least one following slot or an access transmission for the slot.

Communication systems may employ transmission of feedback information and responses thereto, on a wireless connection such as a millimeter wave connection. The feedback information itself may be used to influence the beamforming or beam direction used for the transmission of the feedback information. A method can comprise determining a feedback indicator regarding reception of a transmitted waveform. The method can also comprise tailoring, for example beamforming, a signal for transmitting the feedback indicator based on a content of the feedback indicator.
