Methods and systems are provided for dynamically adjusting broadcast beam patterns of a wavefront emitted by an antenna array based on the velocities of devices communicatively coupled to the base station associated with the antenna array. The broadcast beam patterns can be adjusted by modifying the broadcast mode or at least one phase, amplitude, or power of the at least one antenna associated with the base station. Adjusting the beam pattern, for example between multiple beams and a single unified beam, based on device types can improve the quality of service for the devices and reduce the processing burden of the base station.

A method for user localization in a cellular network includes receiving, by a receiver unit, Orthogonal Time Frequency Space (OTFS) modulated Constant-Amplitude-Zero-Autocorrelation (CAZAC) sequences generated and transmitted in a Doppler-delay domain by a transmitter unit. The method further includes estimating, by the receiver unit, Doppler shift and/or relative speed between the transmitter unit and the receiver unit by filtering the received OTFS modulated CAZAC sequences.

A method is disclosed to receive a signal, in a receiver from a transmitter (e.g., over a period of time). The signal propagates from the transmitter to the receiver in a direction of propagation. The receiver may move in a direction of motion relative to the transmitter. The signal includes a cyclic feature. The method may determine a change rate of a Doppler shift of the cyclic feature in the received signal. The method may determine, based on the change rate of the Doppler shift of the cyclic feature, an angle between the direction of motion of the receiver and the direction of propagation, the range between the receiver and the transmitter, and/or the locations of the transmitter and/or receiver.

Systems and methods of collaborative localization for a vehicle are provided. In particular, one or more vehicles that are able to localize themselves with high accuracy may transmit timestamped localization information (i.e. localization packets) to a nearby vehicles which lack high-accuracy localization sensors. Each localization packet may include the location of the transmitting vehicle with respect to a global reference frame. Upon receiving the localization packets, a vehicle may use radiolocation techniques to estimate its location relative to the transmitting vehicle(s). Based on this estimation and the information in the localization packets, the vehicle may then estimate its location with respect to the global reference frame with a high degree of accuracy.

A method for providing motion information of a UE in a wireless communication system. The method comprises initiating, in a first network node, of a first Doppler shift measurement concerning the UE. In the first network node, a transfer of requests for second Doppler shift measurement concerning the UE is initiated to second network nodes. Data representing the first Doppler shift measurement is obtained in the first network node. Data representing the second Doppler shift measurements is obtained in the first network node. An estimated motion, in more than one dimension, of the UE is determined in dependence of at least the obtained data representing the first Doppler shift measurement and the obtained data representing the second Doppler shift measurements. A method for assisting by the second network node, as well as network nodes performing the methods are also disclosed.
