Ultra-Lean Localization and Doppler Procedures for 5G and 6G
5G and especially 6G are intended to accommodate high-speed mobile user devices and access points such as wireless devices on trains and airplanes, while retaining enhanced mobile broadband eMBB service. Therefore, new resource-efficient, low-complexity procedures are needed for measuring and correcting the Doppler frequency shift. To assist user devices, a base station or access point can periodically broadcast a current geographical location of the base station or access point in a localization message. In some embodiments, the geographical location data can be included in a periodically broadcast system information message, such as unused space of a SSB (synchronization signal block) message or an SIB1 (first system information block) message. User devices can then determine a vector toward the base station or access point relative to the user device location and velocity, and thereby calculate a Doppler correction without a frequency scan or other overhead, according to some embodiments.
Power headroom reporting procedure for multiple cells
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some wireless communications systems, a device, such as a user equipment (UE), may report power headroom measurements. To support accurate and reliable power headroom reports (PHRs), the UE may receive a first downlink control information (DCI) transmission for a first cell and determine whether a second DCI transmission for a second cell is received. The UE may generate the PHR based on whether a second DCI transmission was received after the first DCI transmission and may transmit the PHR including power headroom values for both cells. The UE may determine whether to perform an actual or virtual power headroom calculation for the second cell based on when the second DCI was received. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may determine whether to drop resources scheduled by the first or second DCI and may transmit the PHR in the remaining resources.
Controlling energy consumption of a wireless network node
A user equipment receives a signal indicating a time schedule for intermittent transmission of information from a base station managing a cell. The intermittent transmission of information enables the UE to perform mobility measurements when the cell is in a discontinuous transmission (DTX) mode and the UE is an active terminal not served by the cell. The UE performs, based on the intermittent transmission of information, a mobility measurement when the cell is in the DTX mode and reports the mobility measurement to the base station.
Systems and methods for uplink high efficiency location in a wireless network
Uplink high efficiency location of a user equipment (UE) includes initiating periodic or triggered location in the UE by a location server (LS) in a wireless network. The UE enters an idle state and monitors for triggering events. After detecting an event, the UE transmits an uplink positioning signal (UPS) to a base station, where the UPS encodes UPS data comprising a UE ID, an ID for the LS, an authentication code (AC) and location measurements. UPS transmission occurs in an uplink positioning occasion shared with other UEs. The location measurements may be ciphered but other UPS data is unciphered. The base station obtains additional location measurements and transfers the UPS data and the location measurements to the LS. The LS authenticates the UE ID using the AC, determines the UE location using the location measurements and transfers the location to an external client.
Power control for New Radio uplink single-user Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output communication
Systems and methods are disclosed herein for determining a power to be used for a set of antenna ports for a physical uplink shared channel transmission. In some embodiments, a User Equipment (UE) comprises processing circuitry configured to derive a power P to be used for uplink power control for a physical uplink shared channel transmission and determine a power to be used for a set of antenna ports based on the power P according to a rule that depends on whether the UE is utilizing codebook based transmission or non-codebook based transmission for the physical uplink shared channel transmission. The set of antenna ports is antenna ports on which the physical uplink shared channel transmission is transmitted with non-zero power.
Autonomous beam configuration in radio frequency repeaters
Aspects of the disclosure relate to beam configuration for RF repeaters. An RF repeater is configured to measure received power of one or more signals in the repeater for each of a plurality of beam directions. Further, the repeater determines a beam forming configuration for a fronthaul link between the repeater and at least one base station based on the measured received power of each of plurality of beam directions. The repeater may also be configured to determine beam configurations for access links between the repeater and user equipment.
ENHANCED UPLINK POWER CONTROL WITH LOOKAHEAD
A UE may calculate an allocation of a transmission power for a first uplink transmission on a first uplink channel and at least one second uplink transmission on at least one second uplink channel, the transmission power being allocated in each symbol of a plurality of symbols in a slot. The UE may detect a transmission power change in the allocation of the transmission power in the slot for at least one of the first uplink transmission or the at least one second uplink transmission. The UE may determine whether to adjust the allocation of the transmission power for the at least one of the first uplink transmission or the at least one second uplink transmission to eliminate the transmission power change in the slot for the at least one of the first uplink transmission or the at least one second uplink transmission.
Method and apparatus for supporting supplementary uplink frequencies in next generation mobile communication system
The present disclosure relates to a communication scheme and system for converging a 5.sup.th generation (5G) communication system for supporting a data rate higher than that of a 4.sup.th generation (4G) system with an internet of things (IoT) technology. The present disclosure is applicable to intelligent services (e.g., smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, retail, and security and safety-related services) based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology. The present disclosure provides a method for preventing a legacy terminal from camping on an enhanced LTE (eLTE) base station that is connected to only a next generation (NG) core by combining a legacy information element (IE) and a new IE carried in system information broadcast by the base station in a next generation mobile communication system.
Dropping a configured transmission based on transmission power and feedback channel priority
A wireless device, receives configuration parameters of: a first resource for a first channel, of a carrier, for transmitting first feedback; and a second resource for a second channel of the carrier for transmitting second feedback. The first resource and the second resource overlap in one or more symbol durations. Power levels are determined comprising: a first power level for transmission of the first feedback via the first resource; and a second power level for transmission of the second feedback via the second resource. In response to a sum of the power levels being larger than an allowed transmission power, a configured transmission of the first feedback via the first resource is dropped. The dropping is based on a first priority of the first channel. The second feedback is transmitted via the second resource.
