Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide apparatus and methods for emulating the Alamouti structure or a similar space-time block code using a single RF chain. A UE may include a RF chain, at least one switching circuit, at least one analog modulator circuit, and a first and second antenna. The output of a RF chain may be coupled to an input of a switching circuit, the output of the switching circuit may be coupled to an input of a first analog modulator circuit, and the output of the first analog modulator circuit coupled to a first and second antenna. A hybrid coupler is one example of an analog modulator circuit.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, apparatuses, and devices are described for transmitting a measurement report during wireless communications. When, for example, a low-power period (e.g., CDRX OFF period) is scheduled to begin during a time defined by a measurement event timer (TTT timer), a UE may modify the low-power period. The low-power period may be modified based, at least in part on determining the low-power period of the UE will begin during a time defined by a measurement event timer, a duration of the measurement event timer, and a duration of the low-power period. Modifying the low-power period may include delaying the start of the low-power state until after transmission of the MR associated with the measurement event timer or skipping the low-power period altogether. The UE may transmit the MR based, at least in part, on the modification.
