摘要:
A generation Node B (gNB) configured for Sub-Band Full Duplex (SBFD) communication in a fifth-generation new radio (5G NR) network may communicate with two or more User Equipment (UEs) during SBFD symbols. During any one or more of the SBFD symbols, a downlink transmission may be transmitted to at least one of the UEs simultaneously with reception of an uplink transmission from at least another of the UEs. The SBFD symbols may span the carrier bandwidth and may comprise at least a downlink (DL) subband and an uplink (UL) subband within the carrier bandwidth. To communicate with the two or more UE simultaneously during the SBFD symbols, the gNB may configure the UEs that are to transmit during one or more of the SBFD symbols with timing-advance offset information to be used by the UEs to adjust a configured timing-advance for initiating an uplink transmission relative to downlink symbol timing at a UE within the one or more SBFD symbols. A timing-advance offset may delay an uplink transmission of during one or more of the SBFD symbols that follows a downlink symbol. This offset or delay, relative to the timing-advance, may provide a UL-DL switching time gap when the SBFD symbol follows a DL symbol.
摘要:
A computer-readable storage medium stores instructions for execution by one or more processors of a UE to configure the UE for SBFD operation in a 5G NR network, and to cause the UE to decode RRC signaling received from a base station and including at least one CSI-RS resource set with time-frequency resource allocation associated with a CSI-RS transmission. A CSI reporting band is determined with a plurality of PRBs based on the RRC signaling. The CSI reporting band including a subset of the plurality of PRBs associated with one or more DL subband(s) in symbols or slots identified via higher layer signaling or a combination of higher layer and Layer 1 signaling for SBFD operation. Channel measurements are performed based on CSI-RSs transmitted during the CSI-RS transmission. The measurements are associated with the subset of the plurality of PRBs in the CSI reporting band.

A user equipment (UE) configured for operation in a fifth-generation (5G) new radio (NR) network may perform frequency hopping for physical random access channel (PRACH) repetition for a four-step random access channel (RACH) procedure. The UE may encode a PRACH preamble for multiple PRACH transmissions of the PRACH repetition in accordance with the number of repetitions and each of the multiple PRACH transmissions of the PRACH repetition may be transmitted in accordance with frequency hopping. Each of the multiple PRACH transmissions comprises a same PRACH preamble transmitted in each of a plurality of PRACH occasions.
摘要:
An apparatus and system are described for power control transmission for multiple physical random access channel (PRACH) transmissions. The systems include repetition level ramping for the PRACH transmissions, as well as power control mechanisms for PRACH transmissions that use identical transmission (Tx) beams and that use different Tx beams. The number of repetition attempts for a PRACH transmission increases when a random access response (RAR) is not received or does not pass contention resolution for a maximum number of attempts. A PRACH transmission within one or more transmission occasions is cancelled if the power exceeds a maximum power for PRACH transmissions.

Systems for providing coverage enhancement for Msg 3 PUSCH and PUCCH carrying the HARQ-ACK for Msg4 of PRACH initial access are described. The gNB provides a 2-bit aggregation factor for transmission of the Msg3 PUSCH in an RAR UL grant field. The PUSCH frequency resource allocation field is limited to 12 bits so that the RAR has an overall number of bits that is the same as an RAR that does not contain the aggregation factor. A default PUSCH TDRA table includes a field to indicate a repetition level for Msg3 PUSCH transmission. For retransmissions, fields in DCI format 0_0 are repurposed to indicate an aggregation factor. Inter-slot frequency hopping may be configured by higher layers. Different PRACH resources are used to indicate UE coverage status.

Embodiments of apparatus and methods for signaling for resource allocation and scheduling in 5G-NR integrated access and backhaul are generally described herein. In some embodiments, User Equipment configured for reporting a channel quality indicator (CQI) index in a channel state information (CSI) reference resource assumes a physical resource block (PRB) bundling size of two PRBs to derive the CQI index.
摘要:
An eNodeB (eNB), user equipment (UE) and method for operating using a reduced data transmission bandwidth are generally described. The UE may receive downlink control information (DCI) that provides a resource allocation (RA) of a reduced physical resource block (PRBmin) of less than 1 PRB for communications in a PRB of a subframe. Whether the RA is localized or distributed may be predefined, configured via system information block or Radio Resource Control signaling, or indicated in the DCI format. The DCI format may specify the resources within the PRB allocated to the UE through a subcarrier block index and total number of subcarrier blocks or a bitmap corresponding to a unique block of subcarriers or block index. An order in a list of cell Radio Network Temporary Identifiers (RNTIs) may be used with a common RNTI to derive the reduced RA from a 1 PRB RA.

A user equipment (UE) is capable of directly communicating with one or more other UEs using a 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) communication specification. The UE is configured to identify a gap size for a device-to-device communication. The UE is configured to identify a cyclic prefix length for the device-to-device communication and transmit the device-to-device communication comprising a subframe having a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) structure. The subframe has the identified cyclic prefix length, and one or more last symbols of the subframe include a gap having the identified gap size.

Embodiments of an enhanced node B (eNB), user equipment (UE) and methods of signaling for proximity services and device-to-device (D2D) discovery in an LTE network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the eNB may transmit signaling to indicate D2D discovery zone configuration to proximity service (ProSe) enabled UEs. The signaling may indicate time and frequency resources and a periodicity of a discovery zone and may indicate operational parameters for the discovery zone. The resources of the D2D discovery zone may be allocated for D2D discovery signal transmission by the ProSe-enabled UEs.
摘要:
Examples may include techniques to enable user equipment (UE) to establish a device-to-device (D2D) communication link for D2D communications with another UE. In some examples, the D2D communications may occur when either both or at least one UE is within a coverage area for a wireless wide area network (WWAN). In some other examples, both UEs may be outside of the coverage area and may utilize a third UE to provide or relay information for use to establish the D2D communication link.
