METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ENHANCING CARRIER AGGREGATION
Provided in the present invention is a method, base station, and user equipment for configuring a serving cell group. The method includes: a base station transmitting serving cell group configuration information to a user equipment having carrier aggregation capability, where the serving cell group configuration information indicates a reference cell used for transmitting uplink control information of a serving cell. The present invention allows the base station to flexibly configure multiple PUCCH reference cells and to configure different PUCCH reference cells on the basis of different cell loads.
CARRIER AGGREGATION METHOD PERFORMED BY TERMINAL IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND TERMINAL USING SAME METHOD
The present invention provides a massive carrier aggregating method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of: controlling a plurality of sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission powers with respect to a plurality of SRS cells to be triggered, respectively; and simultaneously transmitting a plurality of SRSs relating to the plurality of SRS cells to be triggered to a network, wherein the plurality of SRS transmission powers are different from each other.
CSI REPORTING METHOD, CSI RECEIVING METHOD, AND APPARATUS
The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a CSI reporting method, a CSI receiving method, and an apparatus, to resolve a technical problem that PUCCH resource overheads are relatively large during CSI reporting. In embodiments of the present invention, at least two PUCCH resources are configured for each downlink carrier group. CSI that needs to be reported in one uplink subframe may be obtained, and a format of a corresponding PUCCH resource is determined according to the to-be-reported CSI. For example, the determined format is referred to as a first format. Then, all of the to-be-reported CSI is reported after being added to a first first-format PUCCH resource.
USER EQUIPMENT RADIO FREQUENCY AND BAND CAPABILITY FOR CARRIER AGGREGATION MEASUREMENT GAP
Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, user equipment (UE) comprising circuitry to connect to a network via a serving cell; and indicate to the network a measurement gap capability of the UE. The measurement gap capability includes information if the UE supports a carrier aggregation (CA) specific measurement gap and if the UE has two or more radio-frequency (RF) chains. The UE then receives a CA specific measurement gap configuration from the network for the two or more RF chains.
PHYSICAL CHANNEL DESIGN FOR NETWORK-ASSISTED D2D
A method in a network node for multiplexing a physical channel between the network node and devices in a mixed wireless network, wherein the mixed wireless network comprises a cellular network comprising one or more cellular channels and a Device-to-Device (D2D), network comprising one or more D2D channels. The method includes time division multiplexing the physical channel between a first group of cellular channels and a first group of D2D channels, and frequency division multiplexing the physical channel between a second group of cellular channels and the first group of D2D channels.
Configuring Wireless Communications Resources
A base station, in a wireless communications system, configures first resources for data access from devices to said base station, said first resources allowing a cyclic prefix having a first length; and configures second resources for data access from devices to said base station, said second resources allowing a cyclic prefix having a second length longer than the first (a) length. The base station transmits configuration information regarding the configured resources to at least one device. The first resources allow at least data having a first data period and a cyclic prefix having the first length to be received in a first period having a first predetermined duration; and the second resources allow at least data having a second data period and a cyclic prefix having the second length to be received in a second period having the second predetermined duration, and the second predetermined duration is an integer multiple of the first predetermined duration.

A cooperative wireless system using a multicast protocol to facilitate coordinating coherent addition and subtraction of wireless signaling or other beams originating from a plurality of antenna units at a target location is contemplated. The system may utilize multicast-based regulation and distribution of transmission control parameters necessary for the antenna units to synchronize the wireless signaling in a manner sufficient to enable the coherent addition and subtraction thereof at the target location.
Multi-branch NOMA wireless communication
The present disclosure describes methods and systems applicable to multi-branch non-orthogonal (NOMA) wireless communication. The described methods and systems include a base station (120) determining (705) a first plurality of multiple access resources and an order of the first plurality of multiple access resources. The base station (120) transmits (710), to a user equipment (110), a message that includes the determined first plurality of multiple access resources and the determined order of the first plurality of multiple access resources. The user equipment (110) transmits, to the base station (120), a multi-branch data stream using a second plurality of multiple access resources that is determined from the first plurality of multiple access resources, after which the base station (120) decodes (730) data from the multi-branch data stream by combining the second plurality of multiple access resources in accordance with the determined order of the first plurality of multiple access resources.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SIGNALING IN AN INCREASED CARRIER MONITORING WIRELESS COMMUNICATION ENVIRONMENT
Systems and methods for signaling in an increased carrier monitoring wireless communication environment are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a user equipment (UE) may include control circuitry to configure the UE for increased carrier monitoring; determine, based on a first signal received from a network apparatus, whether a reduced performance group carrier is configured; determine, based on a second signal received from the network apparatus, whether a scaling factor is configured; and in response to a determination that no reduced performance group carrier is configured and a determination that no scaling factor is configured, allow the UE to monitor fewer carriers than required by increased carrier monitoring. Other embodiments may be disclosed and/or claimed.
