BEAMFORMING AND CARRIER AGGREGATION
A device configured for operating in a wireless communication network and for performing communication with a communication partner within the wireless communication network by exchanging a wireless signal is configured for communicating with the communication partner using a beamforming technique to form a transmit beam pattern being a beam pattern selected from a plurality of transmit beam patterns being formable by the device. The device is configured for providing, responsive to a trigger event, a number of transmit beam patterns being at least a subset of the plurality of formable transmit beam patterns to the communication partner or a different entity of the wireless communication network. The device is configured for receiving feedback information relating to the beam patterns of the number of beam patterns; and for using at least one of the provided number of beam patterns based on the feedback information as a selected beam pattern.
TERMINAL AND RADIO COMMUNICATION METHOD
A terminal according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a transmission section that transmits mode 2 capability information indicating that mode 2 of full power transmission is supported; and a control section that, in a case where the mode 2 capability information is transmitted and transmitted precoding matrix indicator (TPMI) group capability information regarding a TPMI group is not transmitted, assumes that a number of SRS ports=1 is configured for at least one SRS resource included in a measurement reference signal (sounding reference signal (SRS)) resource set of which usage is a codebook. According to one aspect of the present disclosure, it is possible to control full power transmission appropriately.
Quasi co-location reset for a user equipment supporting a single active transmission configuration indication state
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) with the capability to support a single active TCI state may receive configuration signaling which configures the UE with an active transmission configuration indication (TCI) state corresponding to a first beam for a control resource set and a shared data channel. The UE may perform a random access channel procedure to select a second beam from a set of different beams. The UE may update a quasi co-location (QCL) assumption for the control resource set to correspond to the second beam and deactivate the active TCI state based on updating the QCL assumption. The UE may then monitor the control resource set, the shared data channel, or both, using the second beam. The UE may deactivate the TCI state and use the indicated downlink beam so that the UE does not exceed its capability.
