Doppler estimation and compensation for wireless communication systems
A method of estimating and compensating for Doppler frequency shifts includes providing an accurate reference device for generating an accurate reference frequency in a Doppler estimation and compensation (DEC) system, the DEC system being electrically connected to a user device. The DEC system receives one of a downlink signal from a base station and an uplink signal from the user device. The one of the downlink signal and the uplink signal is compared to the accurate reference frequency. An estimate of a Doppler frequency shift associated with the one of the downlink signal and the uplink signal is determined. An offset Doppler frequency shift of opposite sign as the Doppler frequency shift is added to the one of the downlink signal and uplink signal to provide a compensated signal. The compensated signal is transmitted to one of the base station and user device.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method, includes coordinating relay transmission of a modulated signal via relay links of a distributed antenna system to reduce an accumulated forwarding delay in forwarding the modulated signal through the relay links. One of the relay links of the distributed antenna system reconverts the spectral segment of the modulated signal for transmission to a communication device to which the modulated signal is directed.

SYNCHRONIZATION FOR MULTI-TRANSMISSION RECEPTION POINT COMMUNICATIONS IN NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORKS
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications systems may support non-terrestrial network (NTN) signaling between both terrestrial and non-terrestrial devices. A user equipment (UE) supporting such NTN signaling may receive a downlink message indicating a first configuration for a first transmission reception point corresponding to a first cell of the NTN, and a second configuration for a second transmission reception point corresponding to a second cell of the NTN. The UE may then perform one or more synchronization measurements to synchronize uplink communications with the first transmission reception point and the second transmission reception point and in order to perform multi-transmission reception point communications in the NTN. The UE may then transmit one or more uplink messages to the first transmission reception point, to the second transmission reception point, or both, in accordance with the one or more synchronization measurements.
