Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. According to some aspects, the apparatus may identify a first power state and a second power state, wherein the first power state is associated with a first transmission or reception of one or more first beams, and the second power state is associated with a second transmission or reception of one or more second beams; and/or switch from the first power state to the second power state, wherein the apparatus is configured to use at least one of a scheduled gap or at least one intermediate power state between the first power state and the second power state to smooth a transition from the first power state to the second power state. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may be communicating with a base station via beamformed transmissions on an active beam. The UE may receive from the base station refined reference signals (RRSs) that include an active beam RRS corresponding to the active beam. The UE may identify that the active beam RRS corresponds to the active beam and perform a beam state measurement on the active beam RRS. The UE may refine the active beam based at least in part on the beam state information of the active beam RRS.
Abstract:
A dual frequency synthesizer architecture for a wireless device operating in a time division duplex (TDD) mode is disclosed. In an exemplary design, the wireless device includes first and second frequency synthesizers. The first frequency synthesizer generates a first oscillator signal used to generate a first/receive local oscillator (LO) signal at an LO frequency for the receiver. The second frequency synthesizer generates a second oscillator signal used to generate a second/transmit LO signal at the same LO frequency for the transmitter. The two frequency synthesizers generate their oscillator signals to obtain receive and transmit LO signals at the same LO frequency when the wireless device operates in the TDD mode.
