摘要:
Techniques for mitigating data loss during autonomous system information (SI) reading by a user equipment (UE) are described. For autonomous SI reading, the UE may autonomously determine when to read system information from neighbor cells and may not inform a serving cell. In one design, the UE may autonomously select a SI reading gap for reading system information from a neighbor cell. During the SI reading gap, the UE may suspend reception of downlink transmission from the serving cell, receive system information from the neighbor cell, and maintain capability to transmit on the uplink to the serving cell. In one design, the serving cell may determine SI reading gaps autonomously selected by the UE for reading system information from neighbor cells. The serving cell may communicate with the UE by accounting for the SI reading gaps of the UE, e.g., may suspend communication with the UE during the SI reading gaps.

摘要:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for implicitly linking aperiodic channel state information (A-CSI) reports to CSI-reference signal (CSI-RS) resources. In an aspect, the UE may be instructed to report on specific CSI-RS resource(s) via explicit signaling in the UE grant. Other aspects disclose techniques for implicit CSI-RS resource selection by the UE that require fewer signaling resources. Instead of explicitly signaling CSI-RS resources to the UE, the UE may implicitly select CSI-RS resource for CSI feedback reporting based on information known to the UE, e.g. a subframe on which a reporting request is received. This may reduce the impact of the additional signaling in the UE grant.

One aspect of the present disclosure provides various configurations of the macro cell and remote radio heads to allow legacy UEs to function, including mapping CRS ports to physical antenna, configuring CSI-RS transmissions and assisting the new UE in identifying remote radio heads.
摘要:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided for separating control transmissions and data transmissions within the coverage area of a plurality of transmission/reception points or points that are geographically displaced, the plurality of points comprising a macro node and a plurality of remote radio heads (RRHs) coupled to the macro node. Separating control transmissions and data transmissions in the macro node/RRH configuration may allow UEs to be associated with one set of transmission points for data transmissions and the same set or a different set of transmission points for common control signaling. Separating control transmissions and data transmissions may also allow for faster reconfiguration of antenna ports used for UE data transmission compared with reconfiguration via a handover process.

摘要:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques that may be used to discover transmission points in heterogeneous networks (HetNet) that involves coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission and reception. Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications by a user equipment (UE). The method generally includes receiving a configuration indicating distinct resources used by each of a plurality of different transmission points involved in coordinated multipoint (CoMP) operations with the UE for transmitting discovery reference signals (RSs), receiving distinct discovery RSs transmitted from the plurality of different transmission points, and calculating at least one of path loss or reference signal received power (RSRP) estimations for each of the transmission points based on the distinct discovery RSs.
