METHODS FOR CONFORMING NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORK COMMUNICATION TO TERRESTRIAL STANDARDS AND REGULATIONS

User equipment may configure a transmitter or receiver to conform to regulations or standards of a geographical region to communicate with non-terrestrial networks (e.g., satellite networks). In one embodiment, the user equipment may receive an indication of a regulation or standard to which to conform to from a terrestrial communication node, and apply an emission mask to the transmitter based on the regulation or standard. The user equipment may additionally or alternatively configure the receiver to be compliant with a noise level tolerance of a received signal specified by the regulation or standard. In some embodiments, the user equipment may implement a frequency offset between the received signal and an interfering signal associated with the noise level tolerance that is scaled based at least on a channel bandwidth associated with the desired signal. Moreover, the user equipment may scale the noise level tolerance based on the frequency offset.

Sampling synchronization through GPS signals

A method uses a distributed data acquisition system with multiple, physically unconnected, data acquisition units, that can be in wireless communication with a remote host, to timestamp measurement data with sub-microsecond time base accuracy of sampling clock relative to an absolute timeframe. A current absolute time is derived from messages received from a satellite radio beacon positioning system (GPS). Measurement data is sampled by each unit at a specified sampling rate. Using hardware logic, batches of sampled data are associated with corresponding timestamps representing the absolute time at which the data was sampled. Data and timestamps may be transmitted to the host. A time offset bias is compensated by comparing timestamps against a nominal time based on start time and nominal sampling rate. The sampling clock rate may be disciplined using time pulses from the GPS receiver. An initial start of data sampling by all units can also be synchronized.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR APPLICATION OF DOPPLER CORRECTIONS FOR TIME SYNCHRONIZED TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER IN MOTION

A system may include a transmitter node and a receiver node. Each node may include a communications interface including at least one antenna element and a controller operatively coupled to the communications interface, the controller including one or more processors, wherein the controller has information of own node velocity and own node orientation. Each node of the transmitter node and the receiver node may be in motion. Each node may be time synchronized to apply Doppler corrections associated with said node's own motions relative to a common reference frame. The common reference frame may be known to the transmitter node and the receiver node prior to the transmitter node transmitting signals to the receiver node and prior to the receiver node receiving the signals from the transmitter node.

FREQUENCY OFFSET DELTA TRACKING FOR NR CONNECTED MODE DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION CARRIER AGGREGATION

Systems and methods are provided for a user equipment (UE) to perform frequency offset (FO) delta tracking. For an anchor component carrier (CC), the UE wakes up to perform tracking updates on a plurality of successive DRX cycles. For the non-anchor CC, the UE determines a minimum update interval Δt.sub.upd, and schedules wake-ups on a first subset of the plurality of successive DRX cycles based on the minimum update interval Δt.sub.upd. For the first subset of the plurality of successive DRX cycles with scheduled wake-ups, the UE performs the tracking updates on the non-anchor CC and updates an FO delta between the anchor CC and the non-anchor CC. For a second subset of the plurality of successive DRX cycles without the scheduled wake-ups on the non-anchor CC, the UE applies the FO delta to correct for a frequency error.

Closed loop frequency correction for non-terrestrial network systems

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for efficiently determining appropriate uplink frequencies for uplink transmissions to a satellite. As described herein, a wireless communications system may support a closed loop frequency correction scheme where a satellite may provide an uplink frequency correction to a user equipment (UE) such that the UE may be able to identify an appropriate uplink frequency for an uplink transmission. In some implementations, the UE may first transmit an uplink signal to the satellite on an initial uplink frequency, and the satellite may determine a corrected uplink frequency for the UE based on the initial uplink frequency. The satellite may then transmit an indication of the corrected uplink frequency to the UE, and the UE may transmit a second uplink signal based on the corrected uplink frequency.
