Abstract:
Aspects relate to wireless communications utilizing repetition of a downlink control channel within a slot. Methods and apparatus include defining a repetition configuration including a number of repetitions used for a downlink control channel. One or more control channel monitoring occasions may be identified within a slot for transmitting the downlink control channel, wherein the number of one or more control channel monitoring occasions is based on the number of repetitions used for the downlink control channel. The repetition configuration and downlink control channel are then transmitted over the identified one or more control channel monitoring occasions.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to configurations for new radio (NR) devices with reduced capabilities. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine a configuration from stored configuration information, where the configuration specifies a subset of features that NR UE with reduced capabilities is to support. The UE may communicate according to the configuration. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Devices and methods of transmitting on an unlicensed band are generally described. A UE determines that an unlicensed medium is idle using a LBT procedure and transmits a burst that ranges from a partial PUSCH to multiple PUSCHs that are aligned or asynchronistic with the PCell boundary. The burst can be scheduled by the eNB or autonomously scheduled by the UE. In the latter case, the UE indicates the presence of the burst in a preamble and aligns to the boundary. In the former case, an initial and ending PUSCH is generated that occupies a partial or super frame. Control information is provided in a UCI of a PUCCH, which is provided simultaneously with the PUSCHs or before start of the UL burst that spans one or more OFDM symbols.
Abstract:
A method for allocating resources in a mobile communication system is provided. The resource allocation method includes determining whether a transmission time of response information indicating presence/absence of an error in received data overlaps a transmission time of channel state information; and when the transmission times overlap each other, allocating, to the response information, a resource block for the channel state information, cyclic shift values in a frequency domain, and orthogonal sequences having orthogonality in a time domain.
Abstract:
A method for determining a data rate of next reverse packet data according to ACK/NACK information and rate control information received from a plurality of base stations in a mobile communication system, transmits reverse packet data to the base stations, and each of the base stations transmits ACK/NACK information and rate control information, indicating a rate-up, rate-down, or rate-hold command, to the mobile station in response to the reverse packet data. The mobile station determines a data rate of reverse packet data based on rate control information received from a set of base stations that excludes base stations that transmitted rate control information indicating a rate-hold command together with NACK information and transmits the packet data at the determined data rate.
Abstract:
A system and method for controlling data rates of a reverse packet data in mobile communication system for transmitting reverse packet data from a mobile station to a base station over a reverse packet data channel at a plurality of data rates. The present invention provides an apparatus and method for improving throughput of an entire system by enabling a base station's scheduler to rapidly assign reverse resource for a mobile station that has completed its data transmission to other mobile stations.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit a channel state information (CSI) reference signal (CSI-RS) to a user equipment (UE) using heterogenous antenna panels, where a first antenna panel used to transmit the CSI-RS may have a different number of antenna ports than a second antenna panel used to transmit the CSI-RS. The UE may generate a codebook to report CSI based on the heterogenous antenna panels. In some cases, the UE may report compressed CSI if the antenna panels are in close proximity together.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In some systems, a base station may transmit subband uplink precoding information to a user equipment (UE). The base station may transmit a first control message to the UE to indicate a set of downlink resources for a downlink message associated with the subband uplink precoding information for the UE. The base station may transmit a second control message to the UE to indicate a set of uplink resources for an uplink message. The base station may transmit the downlink message to the UE via the set of downlink resources indicated by the first control message. The downlink message, the second control message, or both may include the subband uplink precoding information for the UE. The UE may transmit an uplink message to the base station via the set of uplink resources using the subband uplink precoding information.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure relate to multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) codebook configuration for wireless downlink communications. A user equipment or a scheduled entity receives a reference signal (channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) and transmits a CSI report based on the reference signal. The CSI report includes a rank indicator configured to indicate one or more ranks among multiple ranks corresponding to multiple antenna panels associated with the reference signal, and a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) corresponding to a codebook for the plurality of antenna panels. In some examples, a first rank of the multiple ranks is different from a second rank of the plurality of ranks. In other examples, a first antenna panel of the multiple antenna panels having a different number of antenna ports than a second antenna panel of the multiple antenna panels. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
