20230085262 · 2023-03-16 ·

Facilitating improved performance based on inferred user equipment device speed for advanced networks (e.g., 4G, 5G, 6G, and beyond) is provided herein. Operations of a system can comprise estimating a speed of a user equipment device based on a number of times that a layer indicator associated with the user equipment device changes during a defined period of time. The operations can also comprise selecting a multiple input transmission mode for a transmission to the user equipment device based on the speed of the user equipment device, resulting in a selected transmission mode. A closed loop multiple input transmission mode can be selected in response to the speed being below a defined speed. Alternatively, an open loop multiple input transmission mode can be selected in response to the speed being above the defined speed.

Channel state information feedback for semi-open-loop and open-loop schemes

The described techniques relate to improved methods, systems, devices, or apparatuses that support channel state information feedback for semi-open-loop and open-loop schemes. The described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) to determine an open-loop, semi-open-loop, or closed-loop transmission scheme for deriving channel quality information (CQI). In the case of determined open-loop transmission scheme, the UE may select a transmission scheme corresponding to a time offset value and a precoder cycling granularity value. The UE may determine one or more of a time offset value, a precoder cycling granularity value, and a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) for a channel state information (CSI) report, and generate CQI accordingly. Additionally, the UE may include the determined values in the CSI report to indicate the transmission scheme used for the CQI derivation. Based on the CQI, the base station can then determine the transmission scheme and perform link adaption accordingly.

REFERENCE SIGNAL FOR ACTIVATING COMMUNICATION MODE

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first device may receive, from a second device, a sounding reference signal (SRS) prior to a scheduled communication. The first device may transmit, to the second device, an indication that a measurement of the SRS does not satisfy a threshold, if the measurement of the SRS does not satisfy the threshold. The first device may activate, based at least in part on the transmitting the indication and before the scheduled communication, a multi-point communication mode. Numerous other aspects are described.

Coexistence management in device communications

The technology disclosed herein includes an apparatus including an antenna, a plurality of wireless endpoints using the antenna, and a co-ex manager configured to measure an activity level of a wireless endpoint over a predetermined time period, compare the measured activity level of the wireless endpoint with a threshold activity level, and in response to the comparison, change an antenna operating mode of the wireless endpoint.

DYNAMIC SWITCHING BETWEEN DIFFERENT MULTI-TRANSMISSION/RECEPTION POINT SCHEMES

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a network may schedule a user equipment (UE) for multiple transmission/reception point (TRP) communication. The network may transmit a single downlink control information (DCI) message to the UE to dynamically configure multiple transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states for the multiple TRPs. In a first example, the DCI message may include a bit field indicating a set of antenna ports and the multi-TRP scheme for transmission. In a second example, the DCI message may include a separate field indicating the multi-TRP scheme (e.g., based on UE capabilities). In a third example, the DCI may indicate redundancy versions (RVs) for different TRPs in an RV field or across multiple fields. In a fourth example, the DCI may include an indication of a precoding resource block group (PRG) size that may be interpreted differently based on the indicated multi-TRP scheme.
