DISTRIBUTED MOBILITY FOR RADIO DEVICES

Multiple mobility sets are maintained for nodes of radio networks. The sets comprise information such as: transmit and receive point identities; cell identities; beam identities; frequency channels; channel bandwidth; and black lists. The sets may be defined at different levels, such as network and physical (PHY) level. A network mobility set, e.g., a new-radio (NR) mobility set may, be determined by the gNB, the cell, the UE, or another device. Multiple radio access network nodes and UEs may exchange mobility set information to achieve a distributed mobility solution. A UE may monitor its orientation relative to a TRP, e.g., via use of an onboard MEMS gyroscope, and alter its beamforming parameters in response to changes in orientation and/or changes in TRP connection strength. Cell selection and reselection for beam based networks may use Single Frequency Network (SFN) broadcast of initial access signals without beam sweeping.

DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MULTI-USER TRANSMISSIONS

A wireless transmitting device is configured to: obtain a compressed-mode PPDU that includes one or more SC fields, where each SC field corresponds to one MU-MIMO group of the one or more MU-MIMO groups and is indicative of a spatial stream configuration for user devices of that MU-MIMO group; and transmit the PPDU to the user devices of the one or more MU-MIMO groups over a predetermined BW. Further, a user device is configured to: receive a compressed-mode PPDU from a wireless transmitting device; and decode the PPDU to obtain a SC field corresponding to the MU-MIMO group that the user device belongs to.

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.

Precoders for multi-panel uplink transmission

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for precoding for multi-panel uplink transmission. For codebook-based uplink transmission, a user equipment (UE) can determine one or more preferred or selected precoders for uplink transmission. The precoders can be from an expanded UE codebook that maps a first number of transmit layers at the UE to a second number of antenna ports at the UE, the layers and/or antenna ports associated with multiple uplink transmit panels at the UE. The UE sends an indication to a base station (BS) of the determined precoders and/or sends an uplink transmission using the determined precoders. For non-codebook based uplink transmission the UE receives first and second reference signals (RSs), from first and second ports of a BS, with first and second UE antenna panels. The UE computes precoders to use for uplink transmission based on the RSs.
