Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit information identifying a panel or beam configuration associated with a set of carriers. The UE may communicate with a base station in accordance with the panel or beam configuration associated with the set of carriers. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
Some aspects described herein relate to reporting, to a node, an indication related to a capability to generate antenna weights for a multi-beam, receiving, from the node in response to the indication, a number of reference signals, and generating, based at least in part on the number of reference signals received from the base stations, multiple antenna weights to use in communicating with the base station.
Abstract:
A UE determines a default beam for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) that is independent of a beam for a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). The default PDSCH beam may be determined based on information received in a medium access control-control element (MAC-CE), or a radio resource control (RRC) message, a downlink control information (DCI). The default PDSCH beam may be determined based on at least one active transmission configuration indication (TCI) state for the PDSCH.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for signaling of UE intra/inter-panel beam switch latency using communications systems operating according to new radio (NR) technologies. For example, the method generally includes determining at least a first latency associated with a beam switch across at least first and second antenna array modules, wherein the first latency is greater than or equal to a second latency associated with a beam switch within the first or second antenna module, and signaling a second device an indication of when to assume the first latency for a beam switch at the first device.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure relate to a method of operating a scheduled entity for wireless communication with a network. In some aspects, the scheduled entity transmits a message that requests a scheduling entity to transmit at least one reference signal. The scheduled entity obtains channel state information based on the at least one reference signal. The scheduled entity transmits a report that includes the channel state information. In other aspects, the scheduled entity transmits a message that requests a scheduling entity to schedule a reference signal transmission for the scheduled entity. The scheduled entity obtains an assignment of resources for transmission of the reference signal in response to the message. The scheduled entity transmits the reference signal based on the assignment of resources. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Aspects described herein relate to adaptive control channel detection in wireless communications. A signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR) of a signal received by a receiver comprising multiple sub-receivers is measured, wherein the SINR is filtered according to a signal combining technology. Based at least in part on the SINR, it is determined whether to utilize the signal combining technology in combining signals related to a channel received over the multiple sub-receivers. Accordingly, the signals related to the channel received over the multiple sub-receivers can be demodulated using the signal combining technology based on determining to utilize the signal combining technology
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, an apparatus may receive, via a receive beam, a first reference signal from a first transmission reception point (TRP). The apparatus may receive, via the receive beam, a second reference signal from a second TRP. The apparatus may transmit an indication of a difference between a first measurement of the first reference signal and a second measurement of the second reference signal. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
Wireless communications systems may support identification or determination of a common default beam for a component carrier (CC) group (e.g., such that all CCs of a CC group may be associated with a same default beam). For example, a CC group may be configured or established to include one or more CCs (e.g., for carrier aggregation), where each CC group may share a same analog beamformer. As such, a beam (e.g., a default uplink/downlink beam) may be established as default or common across CCs of a CC group (e.g., versus default beams being configured or established for individual CCs). Such an established default beam of a CC group (e.g., a default beam common to all CCs of a CC group) may include or refer to a default downlink shared channel beam, a default sounding reference signal (SRS) beam, a default downlink control channel beam, etc.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for adaptive antenna mode switching. An example method performed by a wireless device includes reporting first capability information indicating that the wireless device supports a first antenna mode associated with a first number of receive antennas, detecting radio conditions that favor a second antenna mode associated with a second number of receive antennas, and performing one or more actions to cause a switch to the second antenna mode based on the detected radio conditions.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may detect a change of one or more reception conditions. The UE may transmit, to a base station and based at least in part on the change of the one or more reception conditions, a request for a radio link adaptation operation to update one or more of a reception beam or a transmission beam of the base station used to communicate with the UE. Numerous other aspects are described.
