Abstract:
In embodiments, an eNodeB (eNB) may include a sequence generator to identify an initialization parameter for a pseudo-random sequence. The initialization parameter may have a periodicity greater than one radio frame of a radio signal. The sequence generator may then generated a pseudo-random sequence based at least in part on the initialization parameter, and then generate a reference signal based on the pseudo-random sequence. The eNB may further include a transmitter that is coupled with the sequence generator and is to transmit the reference signal in a subframe of the radio signal.
Abstract:
Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE) and methods for packet based device-to-device (D2D) discovery in an LTE network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, UE may be enabled for proximity services and may be configured to receive signaling from an enhanced node B (eNB) indicating resources allocated for D2D discovery. The UE may configure a discovery packet in accordance with a predetermined configuration to have at least a discovery payload and a cyclic-redundancy check (CRC). The discovery payload may include discovery-related content. The UE may be configured to transmit the discovery packet on at least some of the indicated resources for receipt by a receiving UE. In some embodiments, a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) may be selected to indicate a payload size and/or MCS of the discovery packet's payload.
Abstract:
Embodiments include apparatuses, methods, and systems that may be used in a UE in a mobile communication network to communicate with a gNB. An apparatus may include a memory and processing circuitry coupled with the memory. The processing circuitry may cause coarse time and frequency synchronization information, obtained from primary and secondary synchronization signals (PSS/SSS), to be stored in the memory. Based on the coarse time and frequency synchronization information, the processing circuitry may decode a physical broadcast channel to obtain a first system information, and may acquire a second system information based on the first system information. Based on the first and second system information, the processing circuitry may cause a transmission of a PRACH, to trigger a transmission of a TRS by the gNB. Other embodiments may also be described and claimed.

A method is provided to generate and control transmission of reference symbols in a synchronization subframe, wherein a reference symbol includes reference values mapped to a block of K subcarriers. The method includes generating data corresponding to a basic subsequence of K-R1-R2 reference values, where R1 and R2 are integers such that 1 ≤ R1 +R2
Abstract:
Beamforming systems and network devices with mid-band carrier to high-band carrier (e.g., about 6 GHz to about 30 GHz) can more efficiently operate paging communications with various paging channel operations. Paging can be utilized to provide user equipments (UEs) with a system information change and a paging message. A system information change indication can be provided to a UE over a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) and the paging message can be provided to the UE over another physical channel, such as entirely in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) or a dedicated physical paging channel (PPGCH) without the physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH).
Abstract:
Techniques for transmitting uplink control information (UCI) on a 5G physical uplink shared channel (xPUSCH) are provided. By allowing UCI to be transmitted on the xPUSCH, UCI performance can be improved. The UCI and data can be multiplexed on the xPUSCH. The UCI and data can be multiplexed in a time division multiplexing (TDM) or a frequency division multiplexing (FDM) manner. The UCI can be mapped onto the xPUSCH in a time first manner or a frequency first manner. Downlink control information can provide a mobile device with a resource allocation for the UCI and with a manner for multiplexing the UCI and data on the xPUSCH. The xPUSCH can be part of a 5G self-contained time division duplex (TDD) subframe structure or a frequency division duplex (FDD) subframe structure.
Abstract:
Devices for and methods of providing low latency 5G FDD communications are generally described. A HARQ ACK/NACK for an xPDSCH is transmitted in the xPUCCH of the same or next subframe as the xPDSCH and xPDCCH. An xPUSCH is generated in the same subframe in response to an xPDCCH and HARQ ACK/NACK response is carried by another xPDCCH or xPHICH in the same or next subframe. The xPDCCH and the xPUCCH are at opposite ends of the same subframe, DL and UL subframe are delayed relative to each other, or at least one of the DL and UL subframe has an additional blank portion, portion with data associated with another UE or portion that contains a reference signal, broadcast signal or control information.
Abstract:
Technology described herein relates to systems, methods, and computer readable media to provide novel burst frame structures, preamble designs, and channel reservation signal designs for Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) operation. An evolved Node B (eNB) can perform a clear channel assessment (CCA) or an extended CCA to determine that an unlicensed carrier is available. The eNB can then send an LAA burst on the unlicensed carrier. The LAA burst's frame structure can include a channel reservation signal, an LAA preamble, and a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH). Matter described herein also provides technology for generating various types of LAA preambles and channel reservation signals.
