Abstract:
A cell-selection and a cell re-selection process include a wireless device that receives a signal from at least one node of a wireless network. The received signal can be a reference signal, an uplink signal, or a downlink signal, or a combination thereof. Location information of the wireless device is determined based on the received signal and transmitted to the wireless network. Information is received from the wireless network that contains a list of candidate nodes to which the wireless device can connect to the wireless network. The list of candidate nodes comprises a list of macro cell nodes, low-power cell nodes, or a combination thereof. The wireless device searches through the information containing the list of candidate nodes to determine a node for a connection to the wireless network.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure include methods and apparatuses, for a third generation partnership project (3GPP) enhanced NodeB (eNB) to transmit parameters of a wake-up procedure with a 3GPP user equipment (UE). After the transmission, the eNB may enter a low power state wherein it monitors for the wake-up signal from the UE, the wake-up signal being based at least in part on the transmitted parameters of the wake-up procedure. When the eNB receives the wake-up signal, the eNB may enter the high-power state and transmit a connection establishment signal to the UE.
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:
Embodiments of the present disclosure describe devices, methods, computer-readable media and systems configurations for configuring coordinated multipoint (CoMP) for network devices. In various embodiments, configuration of the CoMP may be based on channel state information reference signals. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
In a multi-antenna, multicarrier transmitter, a multicarrier communication signal is generated by normalizing beamforming matrices based on an average subcarrier power loading for each of the transmit antennas. One or more spatial streams may be transmitted by two or more antennas.
Abstract:
A generation node B (gNB) configured for aperiodic channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) triggering and transmission may encode signalling for transmission to a user equipment (UE). The signalling to indicate an aperiodic Triggering Offset (aperiodicTriggeringOffset). The aperiodic Triggering Offset may comprise a slot offset. The gNB may encode a downlink control information (DCI) for transmission that may trigger transmission of a CSI-RS in one or more aperiodic CSI-RS resource set(s) (i.e., in one or more slots (n)). The DCI triggers transmission of the aperiodic CSI-RS within a triggered slot with the slot offset (i.e., the aperiodicTriggeringOffset). The gNB may transmit the CSI-RS in resource elements of the triggered slot in accordance with the slot offset, when CSI-RS resources are available in the slot at the slot offset. The gNB may postpone transmission of the aperiodically triggered CSI-RS to a first available downlink slot when the CSI-RS resources are not available in the triggered slot at the slot offset.
Abstract:
Described is an apparatus of a User Equipment (UE) operable to communicate with a fifth-generation Evolved Node-B (gNB) on a wireless network. The apparatus may comprise a first circuitry and a second circuitry. The first circuitry may be operable to process a message comprising an indicator to indicate a number of contention based physical random access channel (PRACH) preambles within a PRACH occasion per Synchronization Signal Block (SSB). The second circuitry may be operable to generate a first PRACH occasion, based on the indicator.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure describe apparatuses, systems, and methods for initialization of pseudo noise (PN) sequences for reference signals and data scrambling. Some embodiments may be to initialize the first M-sequence of the PN sequence with a fixed value; and initialize the second M-sequence of the PN sequence with a compressed value. Some embodiments may be to initialize the first M-sequence of the PN sequence with a fixed value; initialize the second M-sequence of the PN sequence with a part of the initialization parameters; and shift the PN sequence by another part of the initialization parameters. Some embodiments may be to initialize the first M-sequence of the PN sequence with a part of the initialization parameters; and initialize the second M-sequence of the PN sequence with another part of the initialization parameters. The embodiments may lead to a more efficient hardware design.
Abstract:
Various embodiments include devices, methods, computer-readable media and system configurations for reference signal generation and resource allocation. In various embodiments, a wireless communication device may include a control module, which may be operated by a processor and configured to transmit to a user equipment (“UE”) device, over a wireless communication interface, a parameter specific to the UE device; wherein the parameter is usable by the eNB to generate a user equipment-specific reference signal (“UE-RS”) to be sent to the UE device. The parameter may be usable by the UE device to identify the UE-RS to facilitate demodulation of multiple-input, multiple-output communications. In various embodiments, a control module may be configured to store, in memory, priority rules, and to determine a UE-RS resource allocated to another UE device based on a UE-RS resource allocated to the UE device and the priority rules.

An apparatus includes a processor a channel state information (CSI) module operative on the processor to evaluate channel state information for a multiplicity of transmission points and to allocate a selection of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS) to an uplink sub-frame allotted for transmitting channel quality/precoding matrix index/rank indicator (CQI/PMI/RI) information to a transmission point. The apparatus may further include a wireless transceiver operative to transmit the selection of CSI-RS in the uplink sub-frame to the transmission point in a wireless network, and receive information from the transmission point in response to the CSI-RS and a digital display operative to present the information received from the transmission point.
