Technology for reporting periodic channel state information (CSI) is disclosed. One method can include determining a reporting period (Npd) of a user equipment (UE) for a serving cell. A Time-Division Duplex (TDD) uplink-downlink (UL-DL) configuration of a primary cell of the UE can be identified. A periodic CSI report for the serving cell can be transmitted, from the UE to the eNB, using a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) on the primary cell according to the reporting period. The reporting period of Npd=1 can be used for the serving cell if the TDD UL-DL configuration of the primary cell is one of 0, 1, 3, 4, or 6 and all UL subframes of the primary cell in a radio frame are used for periodic CSI reporting.

An eNodeB (eNB), user equipment (UE) and method for operating in enhanced coverage (EC) modes are generally described. The UE may receive one or more physical broadcast channel (PBCH) signals, dependent on whether the UE is in a normal coverage mode or in one of the EC modes. The PBCH signal may be combined to form a combined PBCH signal, when the UE is in an EC mode, and decoded to determine one of a plurality of sets of resource regions associated different EC modes for communication with the eNB. The signal may be scrambled using a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) dependent on at least one of a signal type of the control signal and the EC mode. Paging and the system information block (SIB) signals in a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) may be decoded without decoding a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) signal associated with the PDSCH.

Generally, this disclosure provides devices, systems and methods for Cross-Carrier Quasi Co-Location Signaling in an NCT Wireless Network. A UE device may include a receiver circuit to receive a QCL signaling message from a primary cell, the QCL signaling message for a configured secondary cell to identify a primary or one or more secondary cells that are Quasi Co-located with the secondary cell for which the message is provided. The UE device may also include a QCL signal decoding module to decode the QCL signaling message and to determine QCL synchronization parameters. The UE device may further include a synchronization module to synchronize the UE with the primary or one or more secondary cells based on the QCL synchronization parameters obtained from the QCL message received from the primary cell.

A User Equipment and an eNodeB system are configured for performing interference mitigation in the UE. Input circuitry in the wireless communication device receives an OFDM downlink channel signal associated with a serving cell and receives downlink control information for an interfering cell. The downlink control information is used by the UE to perform channel estimation for the interfering cell. An interference mitigation module is provided for calculating an interference-mitigated version of the received channel signal using estimated channel transfer functions for both the serving cell and the interfering cell, power control parameters and using set of modulation constellation points corresponding to the OFDM downlink channel. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
摘要:
The embodiments described herein relate to a user equipment (“UE”) and a plurality of nodes in a wireless network. A UE may be adapted to receive from a node a discovery signal that includes a base sequence. The base sequence may distinguish a first group of collocated nodes, comprising a first cell cluster, from a second group of collocated nodes, comprising a second cell cluster. The UE may further be adapted to receive from the node an orthogonal sequence, also included in the discovery signal. The orthogonal sequence may distinguish a first cell from other collocated cells so that cells within a cell cluster are separately identifiable. In further embodiments, the conjugate of sequences may be used to increase the amount of sequences available to distinguish cells and/or cell clusters. Other embodiments are described herein.

In embodiments, an eNodeB (eNB) may include a sequence generator to identify an initialization parameter for a pseudo-random sequence. The initialization parameter may have a periodicity greater than one radio frame of a radio signal. The sequence generator may then generated a pseudo-random sequence based at least in part on the initialization parameter, and then generate a reference signal based on the pseudo-random sequence. The eNB may further include a transmitter that is coupled with the sequence generator and is to transmit the reference signal in a subframe of the radio signal.
