Disclosed is a method for transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) for a plurality of uplink bands in a wireless communication system, according to various embodiments. Disclosed are the method and an apparatus therefor, the method comprising the steps of: receiving, from a base station, SRS configuration information for the plurality of uplink bands; and transmitting, to the base station, the SRS in each of the plurality of uplink bands, on the basis of the SRS configuration information. The SRS is transmitted via at least one SRS port allocated to each of the plurality of uplink bands by means of the SRS configuration information, and the at least one SRS port is allocated differently for each of the plurality of uplink bands.

Various techniques are presented to improve channel estimation in a wireless system, comprising: receiving, by a wireless device, an indication of a physical downlink channel configuration for receiving a physical downlink channel transmission, the physical downlink channel transmission including a demodulation reference signal (DMRS); transmitting an indication that the wireless device supports bundling DMRS signals across multiple slots; receiving a DMRS configuration, the DMRS configuration including a channel estimation bundle window, the channel estimation bundle window indicating that channel estimation may be performed across multiple slots; receiving a set of DMRS signals within the channel estimation bundle window, wherein a first DMRS signal of the set of DMRS signals is received in a first slot, and wherein a second DMRS signal of the set of DMRS signals is received in a second slot; and estimating a radio channel based on the first DMRS signal and the second DMRS signal.
State-based beam switching
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Beam pair link (BPLs) may be associated with a state of a wireless device. For example, a first wireless device may communicate with a second wireless device using a set of BPLs, and the second wireless device may operate using a predetermined movement sequence, where different movements may correspond to the second wireless device using respective states. In some examples, a BPL may be selected for each state of the second wireless device and used to communicate with the first wireless device, where the BPL that corresponds to a particular state may be determined through beam training procedures. In some cases, BPLs associated with respective states may experience decreased link quality and the first wireless device may transmit a configuration that modifies the communications between the first and second wireless devices based on the affected BPLs.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a first transmission on a first beam of a set of beams in a first time period of a first transmission duration. The UE may identify a second beam of the set of beams in a second time period of the first transmission duration. The UE may transmit an indication of the identified second beam of the set of beams for an uplink transmission and/or a downlink transmission in a second transmission duration. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Methods and apparatuses in a wireless communication system. A method of operating a base station (BS) includes receiving a set of uplink signals; estimating, based on a subset of the set of uplink signals, uplink channels; estimating a timing offset (TO) and a frequency offset (FO) for a subset of the estimated uplink channels; compensating, based on the estimated TO and FO, the subset of the estimated uplink channels to generate TO and FO compensated uplink channel estimates; and generating channel prediction information based on the compensated subset of the estimated uplink channels.
Data and control multiplexing in PUSCH in wireless networks
Transmission of information in a wireless network is performed by allocating a channel from a transmitter to a receiver. The channel has at least one time slot with each time slot having a plurality of symbols. Each slot contains at least one reference symbol (RS). As information becomes available for transmission, it is classified as prioritized information (PI) and other information. One or more priority symbols are generated using the digital samples of the priority information. Other symbols are generated using the other data. Priority symbols are transmitted on the channel in a manner that separation of priority symbol(s) and a reference symbol does not exceed a time duration of one symbol. For example, Rank Indicator (RI) is transmitted using symbol k, ACKNAK is transmitted using symbol k+1; and the reference signal (RS) is transmitted using symbol k+2, wherein symbols k, k+1, and k+2 are consecutive in time. The other symbols are transmitted in available locations.
Puncturing unit for sounding reference signal (SRS) comb patterns with cyclic shifting
Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource configuration, the SRS resource configuration indicating at least a comb pattern for at least one SRS resource allocated to the UE and a puncturing unit for the comb pattern, wherein the comb pattern is divided into one or more puncturing units, wherein each puncturing unit comprises one or more time units of the comb pattern, and wherein each of the one or more time units comprises two or more symbols, and refrains from transmitting all SRS transmissions of the at least one SRS resource within a first puncturing unit of the one or more puncturing units based on a determination that one or more SRS transmissions of the at least one SRS resource within the first puncturing unit are to be dropped.
