A central node may include a processor configured to empirically compute an approximation of power coefficients based on estimates of the channel coefficients such that a same one of the approximation of the power coefficient is assigned to each of a plurality of access terminals (ATs), and transmit components of a signal vector to associated access points (APs), the signal vector being based on at least the approximation of the power coefficient.

Aspects of this disclosure relate to user equipment assisted multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) downlink configuration. Features are described for a user equipment determination of a desired transmission mode and/or active set of serving nodes for wireless communication service(s). The user equipment may submit a request for the desired mode and/or nodes to a network controller such as a baseband unit. The user equipment may subsequently receive a configuration for the requested wireless communication service(s).

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. An access point (AP) may transmit, to a second AP and during a first portion of a transmission opportunity (TxOP), a request to participate in a multi-user (MU) transmission. The AP may receive, from the second AP and during the first portion of the TxOP, an indication of intent to participate in the MU transmission during the second portion of the TxOP, the indication of intent including a resource request of the second AP for participation in the MU transmission. The AP may transmit, during an initial period of the second portion of the TxOP, a trigger signal to the second AP indicating a set of one or more resources for the second AP during the MU transmission. The AP may participate, in conjunction with the second AP and during the second portion of the TxOP, in the MU transmission.

The present disclosure relates to a mobile terminal, a system and respective methods. The user equipment receives plural PDCCHs from each of plural TRPs within a single TTI, and decodes plural DCIs respectively carried on the received plural PDCCHs from each of the plural TRPs. All of the decoded plural DCIs from each of the plural TRPs are respectively scheduling plural PDSCH receptions or plural PUSCH transmissions on different ones of the plural TRPs. And all of the plural PDSCH receptions or plural PUSCH transmission are scheduled such that one of the decoded plural DCIs from each of the plural TRPs is scheduling a same one PDSCH reception or a same one PUSCH transmission on a same one of the plural TRPs. The user equipment receives or transmits same data in the respectively scheduled plural PDSCH receptions from or PUSCH transmission to each of the plural TRPs.

Example demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port indication methods and apparatus are described. In one example method, a network device determines DMRS port indication information, and sends the DMRS port indication information. The DMRS port indication information is used to indicate a DMRS port set, and the DMRS port set is one of a plurality of DMRS port sets. A first subset of the plurality of DMRS port sets are first DMRS port sets, and DMRS ports in each first DMRS port set belong to a plurality of CDM groups. A second subset of the plurality of DMRS port sets are second DMRS port sets, and at least one DMRS port in each second DMRS port set belongs to a same CDM group.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may indicate, to a base station, a capability of the UE to use a channel measurement resource for both a joint transmission hypothesis and a single transmission hypothesis. The UE may receive, based on indicating the capability of the UE, a configuration message indicating a first channel measurement resource that is associated with a first transmission configuration indicator state and that is configured for a first joint transmission hypothesis. The UE may obtain a channel measurement for both the first joint transmission hypothesis and a first single transmission hypothesis using the first channel measurement resource based on the configuration message.

A method for transmitting and receiving downlink data in a wireless communication system includes the steps of: transmitting a preamble for random access; receiving a response message for the random access corresponding to the preamble, a radio remote control (RRC) connection being established based on the preamble and the response message; receiving configuration information, a repetition scheme based on time division multiplexing being set based on the configuration information; receiving downlink control information (DCI); and receiving a plurality of transmission occasions based on the DCI, wherein a resource allocation in the time domain for the first transmission occasion may be determined based on the time domain resource assignment field of the DCI, and resource allocation in the time domain for the second transmission occasion may be determined based on the resource allocation in the time domain for the first transmission occasion.

Asynchronous multi-point transmission techniques for MIMO networks are provided. An example method comprises receiving, by a device comprising a processor, a first data signal from a first TP device of a wireless communication network, wherein the first data signal comprises first code-word information generated based on a data. The method further comprises receiving, by the device, a second data signal from a second TP device of the wireless communication network, wherein the second data signal comprises second code-word generated based on the data, wherein the first code-word information and the second-code word information are different, and wherein the first TP device and the second TP device are geographically separated by a threshold distance. The device can further process the first data signal and the second data signal to generate a unified data signal representative of the data.
