USING AN UPLINK GRANT AS TRIGGER OF FIRST OR SECOND TYPE OF CQI REPORT
Channel state feedback is provided from a UE to a base station as a first, detailed or a second, less detailed type of channel state feedback information. Initially it is determined whether the UE has received an uplink grant from the base station or not. If the UE has received an uplink grant, a first type of channel state feedback information is transmitted to the base station on the granted resource. If, however, the UE has not received an uplink grant, a second type of channel state feedback information is transmitted to the base station. Different types of channel state feedback information enables a UE and an associated base station to use available resources more efficiently, when requesting for and delivering channel state feedback information.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FLEXIBLE TRIGGERING OF CSI REPORTS
Systems and methods for flexible triggering of Channel State Information (CSI) reports are provided. A method performed by a wireless device for transmitting a CSI report according to a timeline requirement includes one or more of: determining to enable timeline switching; receiving an instruction to determine a first CSI report; determining to stop determining an existing ongoing second CSI report; determining the first CSI report; and transmitting the first CSI report. In this way, some embodiments allow ultra-low latency CSI reporting also for the cases when the wireless device is already in the ongoing process of determining a CSI report. In some embodiments, Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communication (URLLC) CSI reports are allowed to “override” previous CSI calculations. Some embodiments achieve more flexible triggering of URLLC CSI reports so that the ultra-low latency CSI timeline can be applied for more cases, reducing the CSI latency and resulting in more reliable URLLC scheduling.
SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND DEVICES FOR SECONDARY CELL ACTIVATION
The present disclosure includes systems, methods, and devices that can provide fast secondary cell (SCell) activation in a wireless communication network. In various embodiments, the methods and devices, including access nodes and mobile radio communication terminals, may use medium access control (MAC) control elements (CEs) commands that facilitate fast SCell activation.
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TRANSMITTING/RECEIVING SIGNAL IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
The method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving a signal in a wireless communication system disclosed herein operate based on a timeline configuration different from that in the prior art. Specifically, a timeline related to physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) reception, physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) reception, and hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) transmission, a timeline related to PDCCH reception and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission, and a timeline related to PDCCH reception, channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) reception, channel state information (CSI) reporting may be modified for a subcarrier spacing (SCS) configuration of 5 or 6.
Method for transmitting and receiving channel state information in wireless communication system and apparatus therefor
Disclosed are a method for transmitting and receiving a radio signal in a wireless communication system and an apparatus therefor. Particularly, a method for performing, by a terminal, channel state information (CSI) reporting in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: receiving, from a base station, bandwidth part (BWP) configuration information on a BWP for uplink and/or downlink transmission; receiving, from the base station, reporting configuration information including a reporting configuration for the CSI reporting; and performing the CSI reporting on the basis of the BWP configuration information and the reporting configuration information, wherein the reporting configuration is associated with the BWP, and whether or not the reporting configuration is activated may be determined on the basis of whether or not the BWP is activated.
SOUNDING OPERATIONS FOR RADIO-FREQUENCY (RF) SENSING
This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for radio frequency (RF) sensing in wireless communication systems. In some implementations, a transmitter device transmits sounding sequences configured for channel estimation over a wireless channel to a receiver device. The transmitter device also transmits or receives non-sounding frames associated with a channel report of the receiver device. The transmitter device transmits a frame soliciting the channel report from the receiver device. The transmitter device receives the channel report, which may include channel state information (CSI) of the wireless channel responsive to at least the sounding sequences. Some types of channel reports may take longer to generate than other types of channel reports. Transmitting or receiving the non-sounding frames during the time period may prevent other devices from accessing the wireless channel when the receiver device needs additional time to generate a certain type of channel report.
SIDELINK MEASUREMENTS REPORT
Systems and methods are disclosed herein for sidelink measurement reporting. In one embodiment, a method performed by a wireless device for reporting sidelink measurements comprises obtaining a configuration of a plurality of threshold conditions for triggering an aperiodic sidelink measurement report and detecting one of the plurality of threshold conditions for triggering an aperiodic sidelink measurement report. The method further comprises, in response to detecting the one of the plurality of threshold conditions for triggering an aperiodic sidelink measurement report, sending an aperiodic sidelink measurement report. In this manner, more accurate path loss or channel busy ratio (CBR) estimation in sidelink communication is enabled, thereby improve sidelink power control performance, resource allocation performance, and hence the overall sidelink communication performance.
COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS
A communication method and apparatus to reduce a waiting latency in a retransmission process. A terminal device receives a first PDSCH from a network device. In response to failing to decode data carried on the first PDSCH, the terminal device sends an SRS to the network device on a first time-frequency resource. In response to the network device not receiving feedback information of the first PDSCH, or receiving feedback information of the first PDSCH that is a NACK, the network device retransmits the first PDSCH based on a result of measuring the SRS. After determining that the first PDSCH fails to be decoded, the terminal device directly sends the SRS to the network device by using the first time-frequency resource.
Collision handling for physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetition
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may identify one or more slots in which an aperiodic channel state information (A-CSI) report communication on a multi-slot physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) overlaps with a second communication on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH). The UE may select for a slot of the one or more slots, an uplink communication from the A-CSI report communication or the second communication based at least in part on a first priority assigned to the A-CSI report communication and a second priority assigned to the second communication. The UE may determine whether to transmit the uplink communication on the multi-slot PUSCH or the PUCCH in the slot. The UE may transmit the uplink communication in the slot. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Channel state information reporting prioritization
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a request to transmit a channel state information (CSI) report relating to a channel quality of a target time interval. The UE may receive a plurality of CSI reference signals associated with the CSI report. The UE may determine respective CSI parts for one or more sub-time intervals of the target time interval based at least in part on the plurality of CSI reference signals. The UE may prioritize one or more of the CSI parts based at least in part on respective time indices associated with the one or more sub-time intervals. The UE may transmit a subset of the CSI parts based at least in part on prioritizing the CSI parts. Numerous other aspects are provided.
