In one embodiment, a supervisory service for a wireless network obtains frequency-time Doppler profile information for an endpoint node attached to a first access point in the wireless network. The supervisory service uses the frequency-time Doppler profile information for the endpoint node as input to a machine learning model. The machine learning model is trained to output an action for the endpoint node with respect to the wireless network. The supervisory service causes the action for the endpoint node with respect to the wireless network to be performed.

In one embodiment, for example, an evolved node B (eNB) may comprise a processor circuit, a communication component for execution by the processor circuit to receive a channel quality index for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), the channel quality index associated with a defined reference resource, and a selection component for execution by the processor circuit to select a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) for transmission over the PDSCH of user equipment (UE) data in one or more resource blocks, the selection component to compensate for a difference between a cell-specific reference signal (CRS) overhead of the defined reference resource and a CRS overhead of the one or more resource blocks when selecting the MCS. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for channel state information measurement adaptation to maximum multiple-input multiple-output layers. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a first channel state information (CSI) report configuration including one or more first CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) resources, wherein each first CSI-RS resource comprises a first resource set; determining, based on an indication of a maximum number of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) layers that the UE is expected to receive, a first resource subset on which to report first CSI; and reporting the first CSI to a base station (BS), wherein the first CSI is based on the determined first resource subset.

An apparatus for wireless communication includes a receiver and a transmitter. The transmitter is configured to transmit of a transport block (TB) via a sidelink that is associated with a wireless communication protocol. The wireless communication protocol specifies that a first transport block size (TBS) associated with the TB is based on a first set of parameters. The transmitter is further configured to transmit sidelink control information (SCI) associated with the TB via the sidelink, and the SCI includes a TBS adjustment value associated with the first TBS.

Certain aspects relate to methods and apparatus for wireless communication. The apparatus generally includes a first interface configured to output one first frame for transmission to solicit CSI feedback from each of one or more first wireless nodes associated with a first BSS and from each of one or more second wireless nodes associated with a second BSS, a second interface configured to obtain the CSI feedback solicited from the first and second wireless nodes, and a processing system configured to generate data frames for the first wireless nodes based on the CSI feedback solicited from the first wireless nodes, and one or more nulling frames based on the CSI feedback solicited from the second wireless nodes. The first interface is configured to simultaneously output the data frames for beamformed transmission to the first wireless nodes, and the nulling frames for beamformed transmission to the second wireless nodes.

There is provided mechanisms for controlling transmission from an antenna panel. The method is performed by a network apparatus. A method comprises performing time-domain beamformed communication with terminal devices served by the network apparatus using the antenna panel split into N>1 subpanels. Each subpanel has two input ports and is fed, via the input ports, by signals and configured to generate beams by application of antenna element weights to its antenna elements. The subpanels are at least phase-wise synchronized with each other. When one and the same signal is fed into the input ports of all the subpanels, signals as transmitted from the subpanels add up coherently to represent a 1-layer transmission by a time reference being shared between the subpanels. The time-domain beamformed communication is performed by the network apparatus using from 1 to 2N layers per symbol of a transmission time interval according to a mapping between the input ports and the signals as transmitted from the subpanels.

An antenna in a system is provided and includes a first device and at least one second mobile device, where the first device communicates with the second device(s). In an acquisition mode, for each antenna of an antenna system, a first item of communication quality information is obtained, and the antenna the first item of information of which is the highest is selected. In a pursuit mode, if the selected antenna is sectoral, a second item of communication quality information is obtained, and the antenna the second item of information of which is the highest is selected. For each antenna, a third item of communication quality is obtained if the selected antenna is the omnidirectional antenna, and from the third items of information, the antenna the third item of information of which is the highest is selected.

A terminal is disclosed including a processor that measures for beam management: a Doppler spread or a coherence time associated with a beam and one or more reporting quantities. The terminal also includes a transceiver that reports the Doppler spread or the coherence time. In other aspects, a method for a terminal and a base station are also disclosed.
