Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may identify one or more radio frequency (RF) spectrum bands for full-duplex communications, and may signal an indication of the UE's capability to support full-duplex communications for each RF spectrum band. The UE may further receive one or more configurations for full-duplex communications, which, in some examples, may be based on the UE's indicated capabilities. As an example, the UE may identify a guard band configuration for full-duplex communications, where the guard band configuration may be based on one or more aspects of resources used for the full-duplex communications. In other cases, the UE may identify a transmission hopping or antenna switching configuration for full-duplex communications. In any case, the UE may communicate with a base station in accordance with the one or more configurations and the UE's capabilities.

Disclosed herein is a new type of fully-connected, hybrid beamforming transceiver architecture. The transceiver described herein is bi-directional and can be configured as a transmit beamformer or a receive beamformer. A method and apparatus are described that allows the beamformer to operate in “carrier aggregated” mode, where communication channels in multiple disparate frequency bands can be simultaneously accessed.

A user equipment (UE) (200, 500, 1530) transmits data to a base station (100, 500, 1520) in a wireless communication network. The UE (200, 500, 1530) comprises multiple antenna ports, and selects a precoding matrix from a respective first, second, third, or fourth set of precoding matrices according to a number of spatial layers. The first, second, third, and fourth sets of precoding matrices are available for all coherence capabilities and are comprised within a larger set of precoding matrices. The larger set comprises precoding matrices that are not available for all coherence capabilities. The first, second, third, and fourth sets of precoding matrices correspond to one, two, three, or four spatial layers, respectively. The number of columns in the selected precoding matrix is equal to the number of spatial layers and each column comprises a single non-zero element and one or more zero elements. The UE (200, 500, 1530) transmits data on the number of spatial layers according to the selected precoding matrix.

A wireless communication method and a wireless communication device. The method comprises: a sending side device generating a common sequence so as to send to a plurality of receiving side devices; each of the plurality of receiving side devices determining a first analogue weight parameter according to a receiving situation of the common sequence, and determining an antenna configuration for sending a pre-determined pilot frequency signal corresponding to the receiving side device according to the determined first analogue weight parameter so as to send the pre-determined pilot frequency signal to the sending side device; and the sending side device determining a second analogue weight parameter regarding the receiving side device according to a receiving situation of the pre-determined pilot frequency signal, and determining an antenna configuration for sending data regarding the receiving side device according to the determined second analogue weight parameter so as to send the data to the receiving side device.

A method comprises capturing a first signal from a first radio chain, and dividing samples of the first signal into a first set of sub-vectors. A second signal is captured from a second radio chain. Samples of the second signal are divided into a second set of sub-vectors according to the determined mapping pattern. A gain difference and phase difference between each sub-vector of the first set and a sub-vector of the second set are estimated, acquiring gain differences and phase differences of the first signal and the second signal. The sub-vector level gain differences are combined to acquire a gain difference between the first signal and the second signal. The sub-vector-level phase differences are combined to acquire a phase difference between the first signal and the second signal. One of the first radio chain and the second radio chain are configured to reduce the gain difference and phase difference.

Filter combinations for carrier aggregation. In some embodiments, a carrier aggregation circuit can include a first combining stage configured to aggregate a first signal in a first path associated with a first band and a second signal in a second path associated with a second band to provide a first aggregated signal in a first combined path. The carrier aggregation circuit can further include a second combining stage configured to aggregate the first aggregated signal in the first combined path and a third signal in a third path associated with a third band to provide a second aggregated signal in a second combined path.

A combiner circuit includes a transmission circuit to be connected to an antenna, and a control circuit configured to control impedance of the transmission circuit.

A user equipment (UE) transmits over multiple antenna ports and receives a control message from a base station in a wireless communication network. The control message comprises a precoding matrix indication field configurable to a first, second, and third configuration. The first configuration identifies precoding matrices in both a first set of precoding matrices and a second set of precoding matrices. The second configuration identifies precoding matrices in the second set of precoding matrices but not in the first set of precoding matrices. The third configuration identifies precoding matrices in a third set of precoding matrices in addition to the first and second sets. The precoding matrices in the sets are precoding matrices for transmissions from the UE. Each set of precoding matrices corresponds to a respective coherence capability. For a maximum of four spatial layers, the first, second, and third configurations occupy 5, 4, and 6 information bits, respectively.
