METHOD FOR ANTENNA PORT INDICATION AND APPARATUS
The application relates to a method for antenna port indication. A terminal receives information indicating an antenna port set of a pilot from a base station. The antenna port set is used for a resource block (RB) set and the pilot is used for data demodulation. The terminal determines the antenna port set based on the received information. By implementing the solution in the application, transmission resource utilization is improved.
USER TERMINAL AND BASE STATION
A user terminal according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a transmitting section configured to transmit a measurement result of a reference signal measured by applying a downlink spatial domain reception filter; and a control section configured to assume that a downlink spatial domain reception filter used for reception of a PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel) is same as a downlink spatial domain reception filter corresponding to the transmitted latest measurement result when low latency beam selection is configured by higher layer signaling.

Layer mapping subset restriction for 5G wireless communication systems
Various embodiments disclosed herein provide for a base station device that can determine which layers should be mapped to codewords in a multi-layer, multi-antenna transmission. The base station device can transmit reference signals to a user equipment device, with each reference signal associated with a respective codeword to layer mapping combination, and the user equipment can send channel state information associated with each reference signal back to the base station device, and the base station device can rank each combination in terms of spectral efficiency or capacity and/or throughput. The base station device can inform the user equipment of the ranked combinations by sending a bit map with the ranked combinations to the user equipment device.
QUASI-COLOCATION INDICATION FOR DEMODULATION REFERENCE SIGNALS
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for signaling quasi-coloration (QCL) information for demodulation reference signals (DM-RS) associated with multiple transmission-reception points (multi-TRP). An example method generally includes generating quasi-colocation (QCL) information indicating a first QCL assumption for a first group of demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) ports and a second QCL assumption for a second group of DM-RS ports; and transmitting the QCL information to at least one user equipment (UE) for use in processing one or more transmission associated with at least one of the first group of DM-RS ports and the second group of DM-RS ports.
Downlink multiple input multiple output enhancements for single-cell with remote radio heads
A base station selects a subset of at least one geographically separated antennas for each of the plurality of user equipments. The base station forms at least layer of data stream including modulated symbols, precodes the data stream via multiplication with the NT-by-N precoding matrix where N is the number of said layers and NT is the number of transmit antenna elements and transmits the precoded layers of data stream to the user equipment via the selected geographically separated antennas. The base station signals the subset of the plurality of geographically separated antennas via higher layer Radio Resource Control or via a down link grant mechanism. The base station optionally does not signal the subset of the plurality of geographically separated antennas to the corresponding mobile user equipment.

Hierarchically elaborated phased-array antenna modules and faster beam steering method of operation
A system substantially updates all the phase shifter values of a phased array antenna by using two “global writes” to update these parameters to all phased-array transformation circuits simultaneously via a serial bus. Antenna elements, each controlled by a phased-array transformation circuit, are individually configured to transform phase and gain according to a register array. The register array has a local register group and a central register group, the local registers physically placed close in proximity to RF chains which each correspond to an element of array antenna, whereby each set of local registers control an individual antenna element and a central register controlling overall beam steering function. Gain values are hierarchically distributed. The apparatus is configured to efficiently elaborate phase shift weights into a submodule of a phase array antenna system with low noise and bandwidth.
INTERFERENCE PRE-CANCELLATION AND PRECODER PROJECTION COMPENSATION FOR MULTI-USER COMMUNICATIONS IN WIRELESS NETWORKS
A method may include receiving, by a mobile broadband user device, a control information including at least: a precoder projection angle that was used by the base station to project an original precoder matrix by the precoder projection angle; and information indicating that a scheduled transmission of a mobile broadband data block to the mobile broadband user device is co-scheduled with a transmission of an ultra low latency data block to an ultra low latency user device via a set of shared physical resource blocks using multi-user multiple-input, multiple-output (MU-MIMO); determining, by the mobile broadband user device, an updated decoder matrix for the mobile broadband user device based at least on the precoder projection angle; and decoding, by the mobile broadband user device based on the updated decoder matrix, the co-scheduled mobile broadband data block that was transmitted by the base station based on the projected precoder matrix.
