    摘要: A system may include an access point (AP), user equipment (UE), and a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS). The RIS may include an array of elements coupled to adjustable devices controlled to cause the array to reflect signals in different directions. The RIS may be controlled in a first mode in which the AP controls the adjustable devices, a second mode in which the UE controls the adjustable devices, and a third mode in which the RIS controls the adjustable devices. The RIS, AP, or UE may determine which mode to place the RIS in based on a downlink signal transmitted by the AP, an uplink signal transmitted by the UE, measurements of the signals performed on the RIS, a first distance or round trip time between the AP and the RIS, and/or a second distance or round trip time between the UE and the RIS.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a base station, a capability report that includes an indication of a maximum number of reference signal resources within a transmission time interval (TTI) for which the UE supports channel state information (CSI) reporting. The maximum number of reference signal resources may be based on a capability for supporting joint CSI reporting for both a downlink and an uplink. The UE may receive, from the base station, a report configuration in response to the capability report. Subsequently, the base station may transmit reference signals to the UE, which the UE may use to determine CSI for both the downlink and the uplink. The UE may then transmit, to the base station, a CSI report including the CSI for both the downlink and the uplink, in accordance with the report configuration.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described Generally, the described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) to perform a beam switching operation from a current beam to a target beam based on a beam switching duration. The UE may transmit a capability report that may include an antenna pointing capability, a list of one or more detailed capabilities, or both to another device, such as a network entity (e.g., a satellite). The UE may perform the beam switching operation based on the capability report. The UE may perform a random access procedure as part of a change of association operation. The UE may receive a control message from the other device, which may be the network entity, that includes an identity of a target network entity, one or more resources for the random access procedure, an indication of the beam switching duration, or any combination.
