Method for transmission of HARQ feedback in group common downlink control information
Aspects of the present disclosure may involve introducing a new downlink feedback information codebook design, a new downlink control information (DCI) format, associated radio resource control (RRC) configuration parameters and UE procedures that can be used in New Radio Unlicensed (NR-U). In some embodiments, the DFI codebook may be of use for providing HARQ feedback with configured grant transmissions. Some embodiments of the disclosure may aid in reducing signaling overhead by grouping HARQ-ACK feedback from a dynamically selected number of UEs.
LOGICAL CHANNEL MANAGEMENT FOR MULTIPLE eSIM PROFILES
Techniques for managing logical channel communication for multiple electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) profiles installed on an embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC), including mapping of logical channel identifier values between different logical channel labeling schemes are described herein. In a first scheme, logical channels are identified using logical channel values alone. In a second scheme, logical channels are identified using a combination of eSIM port value and channel values. An interpreter in the eUICC and/or in processing circuitry external to the eUICC can map between the logical channel labeling schemes to allow internal state machines in the eUICC and/or the processing circuitry to use the first scheme for identifying logical channels.
CONFIGURATION OF SIDELINK RESOURCES FOR TRANSMISSION OF A SIDELINK MESSAGE
A user equipment (UE) includes a receiver configured to receive, during operation based on a first mode, a configuration message from a base station. The configuration message indicates sidelink resources associated with a sidelink data channel. The UE further includes a transmitter configured to transmit, based on detecting that one or more conditions associated with the configuration message are satisfied, and during operation based on a second mode, a sidelink message to a second UE via the sidelink data channel during an occasion associated with the sidelink resources.
Inter-cell multi-TRP operation for wireless networks
An method includes determining to perform inter-cell multi-downlink control information (multi-DCI) based multi-transmission reception point (multi-TRP) operation for a user device based on the following: receiving, by the user device from a network node, transmission configuration index (TCI) states for a plurality of control resource sets (CORESETS), wherein the TCI states for the plurality of CORESETs are associated with a plurality of cells having different physical cell identities (PCIs) or associated with a plurality of cell groups; and determining, by the user device, that at least one of the following conditions is present: 1) a multi-DCI based multi-TRP-related high layer parameter has been configured to the user device; 2) a default mode of multi-TRP operation has been configured to the user device; or 3) the user device has received control information indicating physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) TCI state activations corresponding to two different CORESETPoolIndex values; and, performing inter-cell multi-DCI based multi-TRP operation.
FREQUENCY DIVISION MULTIPLE ACCESS OPTICAL SUBCARRIERS
A network or system in which a hub or primary node may communicate with a plurality of leaf or secondary nodes. The hub node may operate or have a capacity greater than that of the leaf nodes. Accordingly, relatively inexpensive leaf nodes may be deployed to receive data carrying optical signals from, and supply data carrying optical signals to, the hub node. One or more connections may couple each leaf node to the hub node, whereby each connection may include one or more spans or segments of optical fibers, optical amplifiers, optical splitters/combiners, and optical add/drop multiplexer, for example. Optical subcarriers may be transmitted over such connections, each carrying a data stream. The subcarriers may be generated by a combination of a laser and a modulator, such that multiple lasers and modulators are not required, and costs may be reduced. As the bandwidth or capacity requirements of the leaf nodes change, the number of subcarriers, and thus the amount of data provided to each node, may be changed accordingly. Each subcarrier within a dedicated group of subcarriers may carry OAM or control channel information to a corresponding leaf node, and such information may be used by the leaf node to configure the leaf node to have a desired bandwidth or capacity.
Method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving reference signal
The present disclosure relates to a method of providing a pre-5.sup.th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4.sup.th-Generation (4G) communication system, such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). The method includes receiving configuration information comprising at least one information element indicating transmission resources for the reference signals, receiving downlink control information indicating that a transmission of at least one of the reference signals is activated, and receiving the at least one of the reference signals based on the configuration information, in response to receiving the downlink control information.
Method and apparatus for indicating channel in wireless local area network
The present invention discloses a method and an apparatus for indicating a channel in a wireless local area network WLAN. A sending station generates and sends a physical protocol data unit PPDU, the PPDU includes a preamble field and a data field, a high efficiency signal field HE-SIG-A of the preamble field includes a bandwidth identifier and a channel bonding identifier, and the channel bonding identifier is used to indicate whether a data transmission channel is continuous in a frequency domain. In the foregoing manner, a discontinuous channel in a frequency domain in a wireless local area network is indicated, an available channel for data transmission is improved, and a system throughput is increased.
Uplink preemption in carrier aggregation/multi-connectivity mode
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to uplink preemption in certain systems, such as new radio (NR) systems, supporting carrier aggregation (CA) and/or multi-connectivity modes. A method for wireless communication, that can be performed by a user equipment (UE), generally includes receiving a resource assignment scheduling the UE for uplink transmission. The UE receives an indication to preempt uplink transmission on a portion of the assigned resources and determines whether to transmit on the remaining assigned resources. A method that can be performed by a base station (BS) generally includes receiving an indication from one or more UEs indicating, for each of a plurality of band combinations, a capability of the UE to transmit on a band when transmission on another band in the band combination is preempted and scheduling the one or more UEs for uplink transmission based on the indication.
Techniques for channel state information feedback for sidelink communications
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first user equipment (UE) may receive, from a second UE, a sidelink communication via a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH). The UE may transmit, to the second UE and based at least in part on the sidelink communication via the PSSCH, hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) feedback and channel state information (CSI) feedback on a single physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) resource. Numerous other aspects are described.
TRANSMITTER, RECEIVER, TRANSMISSION METHOD, AND RECEPTION METHOD
Provided is a transmitter which improves the flexibility of SRS resource allocation without increasing the amount of signaling for notifying the cyclic shift amount. In the transmitter, with regard to each basic shift amount candidate group having a basic shift amount from 0 to N-1, a transmission control unit (206) specifies the actual shift amount imparted to a cyclic shift sequence used in scrambling a reference signal transmitted from each antenna port, said specification being performed based on a table in which cyclic shift amount candidates correspond to each antenna port, and based on setting information transmitted from a base station (100). With regard to basic shift amount candidates for shift amount X, the table differentiates between an offset pattern comprising offset values for cyclic shift amount candidates corresponding to each antenna port and an offset pattern corresponding to basic shift amount candidates of X+N/2.
