Abstract:
Delivery of electrical stimulation to the substantia nigra and the subthalamic nucleus of a brain of a patient are independently controlled in order to treat sleep and movement disorders. Electrical stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus may be effective in treating symptoms associated with a movement disorder, and electrical stimulation of the substantia nigra may be effective in treating symptoms associated with a sleep disorder. During a sleep state of the patient, a sleep stage of the patient may be determined, and an electrical stimulation device may be controlled based on the determined sleep stage. Electrical stimulation of the substantia nigra and subthalamic nucleus may be delivered at substantially the same time or at different times.

There is disclosed method for reporting channel state so as to report channel state based upon CSI-RS. The method includes: a UE detecting configuration information of Channel State Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS), determining according to detection result the number of ports required to report channel state based upon CSI-RS, the UE determining CSI-RS based PMI feedback scheme to be adopted in preset corresponding relationship between the number of ports and feedback scheme upon determining that the eNB is to map data of Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) onto P (number) CSI-RS ports for transmission in a codebook-based precoding scheme, wherein the codebook-based precoding scheme is a scheme as represented in the formula of [ y ( 0 ) ⋮ y ( P - 1 ) ] = W · s , wherein W represents a codebook consisted of a precoding matrix, S is PDSCH data consisted of data layers whose quantity is equal to value of Rank Indication (RI) and [ y ( 0 ) ⋮ y ( P - 1 ) ] represents a vector consisted of data on P (number) CSI-RS ports; and the UE calculating and reporting channel state information according to the determination result. The invention further discloses apparatus for performing the method.
Abstract:
A demodulation reference signal port mapping method is disclosed. The method includes: a base station communicates with a User Equipment (UE), and allocates corresponding data stream to the UE according to the attribution of the UE; the base station maps the corresponding data stream from a layer to a corresponding demodulation reference signal port; the base station transmits the corresponding data stream to the UE via demodulation reference signal port. By restricting the demodulation reference signal port mapping solution of rank=1 to rank=8 and the demodulation reference signal port mapping solution when the retransmission occurs, the technical solution enables the demodulation reference signal port mapping solution to compatible with the present system and to keep lower overhead of the demodulation reference signal.
