Abstract: Method, apparatus, and computer program product for a user equipment in a wireless communications system to receive configuration information that has one or more TCI-states. With this configuration information, the user equipment can then determine inactivity on TCI-states. Based on that determination, the user equipment enables either a discontinuous monitoring or a cessation of monitoring on those TCI-states. Each TCI-state corresponds to a radio beam and also corresponds to an antenna panel. By reducing such monitoring, the use equipment can deactivate antenna panels corresponding to the TCI-states. The determination can be done through the use of a timer with various time thresholds based on the TCI-state. The activity being transmitted on those beam can be scheduling received by the user equipment from a network element such as a base station. The TCI-states can also be grouped and the functionality of the invention dealt with on a group basis.

Abstract: A method can include transmitting, by a user equipment to a base station, coherence information indicating, based on precoding to be performed in association with transmission, whether multiple transmission signals to be transmitted via multiple transmission ports will be coherent with each other, receiving, from the base station, a transmission indication message, the transmission indication message assigning uplink transmission resources and coherence information to the multiple transmission ports, and transmitting, to the base station via the assigned uplink transmission resources, the multiple transmission signals via the multiple transmission ports.

Abstract: A radio network element includes at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code. The at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the radio network element to: configure a quasi-co-location-type information entry included in a transmission configuration indication state (S604) for a downlink transmission beam between the radio network element and a user equipment based on at least one beam report, the at least one beam report including at least one transmission parameter for the downlink transmission beam, and the quasi-colocation-type information entry being indicative of one or more sources of inter-beam-interference on the downlink transmission beam at the user equipment; and transmit the transmission configuration indication state including the quasi-co-location-type information entry to the user equipment (S606).

Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from improved performance. For example, communication systems may benefit from a multi-functional reference signal that allows for the harmonization of different reference signal patterns. A method, in certain embodiments, may include constructing at a base station a reference signal including a plurality of reference signal patterns. The plurality of reference signal patterns can include at least one of a default reference signal pattern or a multi-functional signal pattern for at least one of uplink or downlink. The plurality of reference signal patterns can include at least one of partially overlapping or non-overlapping resource elements. In addition, the plurality of reference signal patterns are constructed dynamically for a specific user or group of users. The method may also include sending the reference signal from the base station to a user equipment.
