Abstract:
Techniques are described that provide uplink power control techniques that can support different uplink multi-input multi-output (MIMO) transmission schemes. Open and closed loop power control schemes can be used to prescribe the power level of the mobile station.
Abstract:
An apparatus may include a transceiver operable to receive a downlink message from a base station for a serving cell, the downlink message allocating a set of control parameters. The apparatus may also include a processor circuit communicatively coupled to the transceiver and an uplink power control module operable on the processor circuit to read the set of control parameters, and apply a signal-to-noise-and-interference (SINR) parameter based on the received set of control parameters to determine physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) power to be applied for a PUSCH transmission. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
Abstract:
Examples are disclosed for determining, at a base station, a target received power parameter for a wireless device in communication with the base station. In some examples, the target received power parameter may be determined based on one or more uplink status signals received from the wireless device at the base station and/or one or more other base stations. For these examples, the wireless device may adjust one or more transmit power levels responsive to receiving the target received power parameter from the base station. Other examples are described and claimed.
Abstract:
Disclosed embodiments may include an apparatus having one or more processors coupled to one or more computer-readable storage media. The one or more processors may be configured to transmit and/or receive channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) resource configuration information, demodulation reference signals (DM-RS), uplink sounding reference signals (SRS), and power control parameters to support uplink coordinated multi-point (CoMP) operations. Other embodiments may be disclosed.
Abstract:
Embodiments for providing virtual carrier sensing for LTE are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a first evolved Node B (eNB) sends a notification of subsequent DL transmission to a first UE in a downlink. In the uplink, the first UE sends a confirmation of the received DL notification. A second eNB overhears the confirmation, decodes it and extracts the information of the DL resources that the first eNB is planning to use. If the second eNB is not already transmitting in the indicated DL resources, the second eNB marks the indicated DL resources as busy and refrains from transmitting in those resources. The second eNB may then reschedule its transmission using alternative resources so that interference from the second eNB1 may be avoided.
Abstract:
The techniques introduced here provide for device discovery of a greater number of mobile devices in a mobile network by increasing the multiplexing capacity of the system. The techniques may be applied to device-to-device communication networks and small cells using low power nodes (e.g., pico and femto eNodeB in a 3GPP LTE or LTE advanced network). Additionally, the techniques provide for mapping between a mobile device ID and an orthogonal resource of the discovery signal.
Abstract:
Embodiments of techniques and systems for quality of experience (QoE) reporting in wireless systems are described. In some embodiments, user equipment may receive a first value of a first quality of experience (QoE) metric computed during playout of a multimedia asset at the user equipment. The first value may be received at a first layer in a protocol stack of the user equipment from a second layer above the first layer in the protocol stack. The user equipment may provide a first layer report, including data representative of the first value, for wireless transmission from the user equipment to an eNB. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide an uplink open loop power control system in which interference over thermal information is transmitted to mobile stations. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
Abstract:
Uplink power control in a macro cell in a wireless network comprises transmitting a reference signal from a base station device to at least one wireless device within the macro cell. The macro cell comprises the base station device and at least one radio transmitter device that is communicatively coupled to and remote from the base station device. The base station device and one or more radio transmitter devices could be selected to be a transmission point, a reception point or a combination thereof, for each wireless device. Information relating to a transmission power of the base station device is also transmitted to the at least one wireless device. An uplink signal is received from the at least one wireless device containing information relating to an uplink power determination that is based on the reference signal and the information relating to the transmission power of the base station device.
Abstract:
Technology for user equipment (UE)-specific assigning of demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) sequences to support uplink (UL) coordinated multipoint (CoMP) is disclosed. One method can include a DM-RS sequence assignment device sorting the plurality of UE into a list according to a number of reception point (RP) links for each UE in a CoMP set, and assigning a base DM-RS sequence and a cyclic shift (CS) to a top-ranked UE from the list. The top-ranked UE can have a highest number of RP links. The DM-RS sequence assignment device can repeatedly assign a different CS of the base DM-RS sequence to a plurality of unassigned UE in a same cell as the top-ranked UE, and repeatedly assign the different CS of the base DM-RS sequence to a plurality of unassigned UE in a cooperatively served cell of the top-ranked UE.
