Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a reference signal notification method, including: sending, by a network device, a reference signal notification message, where the reference signal notification message includes time resource information of a reference signal. According to the embodiments of the present invention, the reference signal notification message in the present invention is used to notify UE of a reference signal configuration, especially information about a CSI-RS, so that the network device can flexibly provide a reference signal, especially a CSI-RS, and the UE can more effectively receive the reference signal, especially the CSI-RS.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a signal measurement method, a network side device, and user equipment. The method includes the following steps: receiving, by user equipment, a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS); receiving, by the user equipment, a synchronization signal; and sending, by user equipment, a first measurement result and a second measurement result, wherein the first measurement result is obtained by measured the CSI-RS, and the second measurement result is obtained by measured the synchronization signal.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure provide using pilot sequences that are better suited to hardware capabilities of a receiver, in particular the capabilities of an analog to digital converter (ADC). When the pilot sequence changes, in amplitude or phase, the received pilot symbols may be quantized to different quantization regions. By utilizing a particular pilot sequence, it may be possible to extract additional information from the pilot sequence being quantized over multiple quantization regions instead of only a single quantization region. Therefore, by careful selection of the pilot sequence taking into consideration capabilities of the receiver, it may be possible to obtain more accurate channel estimations.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a systematic solution to virtual random access (VRA) that dynamically and adaptively forms various metrics. The present invention facilitates dynamic data pipelining between the network-side and the UE-sides without the need to use the same cell-association concept as current wireless networks and provides soft associations between dynamic groups of UEs and TPs based on various UE, TP, and network related metrics. To provide efficient collaborative grouping and association among TPs and UEs, the present invention features a soft TP-UE association map based on several factors, such as individual UE metrics, TP metrics, effects of neighboring or nearby UEs (e.g., interference), and historical network knowledge.
Abstract:
This application provides a channel measurement method and apparatus. The method includes: A terminal device obtains a first reference signal set and a second reference signal set, where the first reference signal set includes N first reference signals, the second reference signal set includes M second reference signals, and M and N are positive integers greater than or equal to 1. The terminal device may further perform channel measurement based on the first reference signal set to obtain first channel information, where a first dimension of the first channel information is less than a quantity of transmit antennas of a first device. The terminal device may further obtain second channel information based on the second reference signal set and the first channel information, where a first dimension of the second channel information is less than the quantity of transmit antennas of the first device.

Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and devices that facilitate two-way redirection via a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) when beam correspondence does not hold. A first embodiment includes using a wide-beam redirection via RIS in which the RIS is configured to redirect the beam incident on the RIS in either direction such that the redirected beam can encompass the deviation of the redirected direction and still reach the destination. A second embodiment includes partitioning the RIS, or using multiple different RISs, where each part, or different RIS, is configured for each direction of communication. A third embodiment includes using time division-duplexing (TDD) such that the RIS is configured to transmit in one direction at a time.
