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.

Provided is a technology capable of securing satisfactory communication quality. A communication system includes a user equipment, and a base station configured to be connected to the user equipment to perform radio communication with the user equipment. The user equipment performs radio communication with a beam. When the user equipment detects a beam disappearance state being a state incapable of maintaining communication quality with the base station, the user equipment transmits a notification of the beam disappearance state with a beam having a wider half width than a half width before detection of the beam disappearance state.

A method and a device for transmitting/receiving a CSI-RS in a wireless communication system are disclosed. A method for receiving an aperiodic channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS), according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, may comprise steps of: receiving, from a base station, downlink control information (DCI) for triggering the aperiodic CSI-RS; and receiving, from the base station, the aperiodic CSI-RS on the basis of the DCI, wherein, on the basis the scheduling offset of the aperiodic CSI-RS being smaller than the beam switch timing of a terminal, a quasi co-location (QCL) assumption of a downlink signal associated with the same CORESET pool index as the CORESET pool index of a control resource set (CORESET) for the DCI can be applied for the reception of the aperiodic CSI-RS.

A method may include transmitting, by a network node within a wireless network to a reference node, a first precoded tracking signal based on estimated precoding weights that are estimated to provide a predetermined signal at the reference node; receiving, by the network node from the reference node, a message including information related to whether or not the predetermined signal was received at the reference node based, at least in part, on the first precoded tracking signal transmitted by the network node; performing the following, by the network node, if the predetermined signal was not received at the reference node: adjusting one or more transmission parameters of the network node, that is estimated to more accurately provide the predetermined signal at the reference node; and transmitting, by the network node, a second precoded tracking signal based on adjusted transmission parameters.

The present disclosure relates to a communication scheme and a system for combining an IoT technology with a 5G communication system for supporting a higher data transfer rate than a 4G system. The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services (e.g., smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, smart cars or connected cars, health care, digital education, retail business, and security- and safety-related services) on the basis of a 5G communication technology and an IoT-related technology. The present disclosure proposes a method and an apparatus for beam failure recovery. An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method of a terminal in a wireless communication system. The method of the terminal comprises the steps of: obtaining information on at least one reference signal for beam failure detection; identifying whether a beam failure is detected for each of a first reference signal set and a second reference signal set included in the at least one reference signal; and if a beam failure is detected for at least one of the first reference signal set and the second reference signal set, performing a beam failure recovery procedure for the reference signal set in which the beam failure is detected, wherein the first reference signal set is related to a first control resource set (CORESET) pool, and the second reference signal set is related to a second CORESET pool.

The present invention has an object to provide a communication system capable of minimizing effects due to a delay among a plurality of base station devices as much as possible in scheduling for communication with a terminal device in cooperation among the plurality of base station devices. Cells1 to 3 can each perform scheduling without using information for scheduling notified from one or a plurality of cells among pieces of information for scheduling notified from other cells. For example, in a case where an interface between the cell1 and cell3 has a large delay amount, the cell1 performs scheduling without using information S13 notified to the cell1 by the cell3, and the cell3 performs scheduling without using information S11 notified to the cell3 by the cell1.

Various aspects of the disclosure relate to distributed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication such as coordinated beamforming or Joint MIMO. In some aspects, distributed MIMO is used to support communication in a cluster of wireless nodes (e.g., access points). A distributed MIMO scheduling scheme as taught herein is used to schedule the wireless nodes (e.g., access points and/or stations) operating within the cluster. For example, stations may be scheduled across basis services sets of the access points for a downlink transmission and/or an uplink transmission.
