ELECTRONIC DEVICE, METHOD AND STORAGE MEDIUM FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
The disclosure relates to an electronic device and method for a wireless communication system, and a storage medium. Various embodiments regarding beam management are described. In one embodiment, an electronic device for a terminal device side in a wireless communication system can comprise a processing circuit system. The processing circuit system can be configured to obtain random access configuration information, and send a random access preamble based on the random access configuration information, so as to indicate one or more transmission beams of a base station side, in a downlink, paired with one or more receiving beams at the terminal device side.
Base station device, and mobile station device
Provided are a base station device and a mobile station device, which can lighten a cell-search processing. The base station device includes a frame constitution unit for forming a frame, in which a pilot symbol multiplied by a base station scrambling code and a plurality of sequences contained in the corresponding sequence set is arranged in at least the head or tail, and a radio transmission unit for sending the formed frame. On the receiving side, the frame timing can be detected from the position of a pilot symbol contained in that frame. Since the base station scrambling code and the sequence set containing the sequences are made to correspond to each other, candidates can be narrowed to at most the base station scrambling codes of the number of the combinations of the sequences contained in the sequence set, by detecting the sequences multiplied by the pilot symbol.
Method and apparatus for measuring synchronization signal block
A method for measuring a Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) by a terminal in a wireless communication system. In particular, the method may include: receiving a cell list including information of at least one first cell, first SSB transmission periodicity information for the at least one cell, and second SSB transmission periodicity information for a second cell that is not included in the cell list; measuring Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) for an SSB of the at least one first cell based on a first SSB measurement window, which is set up by using the first SSB transmission periodicity information; and measuring RSRP for an SSB of the second cell based on a second SSB measurement window, which is set up by using the second SSB transmission periodicity information.
REFERENCE SIGNAL DESIGN FOR CELL SEARCH IN AN ORTHOGONAL WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate efficient cell acquisition in a wireless communication system. In one aspect, a reference signal for use in cell acquisition can be constructed in a bandwidth-agnostic manner such that it contains a common central portion in a predetermined frequency band that is independent of a bandwidth utilized by an associated wireless communication system. The central portion can be constructed as a two-dimensional block in time and frequency that spans a default cell search bandwidth, a predetermined bandwidth specified by synchronization codes or other signals, or another suitable bandwidth. A reference signal can then be constructed form the central portion by tiling or expanding the central portion such that it spans the entire system bandwidth.
Method and apparatus for maintaining uplink synchronization and reducing battery power consumption
A Node-B sends a polling message to a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). The WTRU sends an uplink synchronization burst in response to the polling message without contention. The Node-B estimates an uplink timing shift based on the synchronization burst and sends an uplink timing adjustment command to the WTRU. The WTRU then adjusts uplink timing based on the uplink timing adjustment command. Alternatively, the Node-B may send a scheduling message for uplink synchronization to the WTRU. The WTRU may send a synchronization burst based on the scheduling message. Alternatively, the WTRU may perform contention-based uplink synchronization after receiving a synchronization request from the Node-B. The WTRU may enter an idle state instead of performing a handover to a new cell when the WTRU moves to the new cell. A discontinuous reception (DRX) interval for the WTRU may be set based on activity of the WTRU.
Energy per resource element ratio for synchronization signal block symbols
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a user equipment (UE) may identify an energy per resource element (EPRE) ratio between a synchronization signal block (SSB) symbol containing a primary synchronization signal (PSS) and an SSB symbol containing a secondary synchronization signal (SSS), a physical broadcast channel (PBCH), or both, based on an operating band for the UE, a bandwidth of the SSB symbol containing the PSS and the SSB symbol containing the SSB, the PBCH, or both. The EPRE ratio may be based on maximum regulatory equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) limits, maximum regulatory power spectral density (PSD) limits for the band, or both. The EPRE ratios may be different for different SSB symbols, when different SSB symbols have different bandwidths. A base station may configure and transmit, and a UE may receive, the SSB according to the identified EPRE ratio.
Synchronization Signals in 5G
A cell search and synchronization method in a wireless communication system providing at least one cell having a frequency span in the frequency domain, the method includes: defining, for a said cell, a plurality of resources within the frequency span and within a defined time frame for transmitting a synchronization signal wherein a resource is characterised by a location in the frequency domain and a location in the time domain; and transmitting the synchronization signal in more than one of the plurality of resources.
Discovering physical cell identifiers in wireless communications
Aspects of the present disclosure describe receiving, from at least one cell of a zone of multiple cells, a zone-specific signal related to the zone of multiple cells, wherein the zone of multiple cells operate using synchronized timing, acquiring, based on the zone-specific signal, a timing synchronization with a cell of the zone of multiple cells, and communicating with the cell based on the timing synchronization.
METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING SYNCHRONIZATION SIGNAL IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, AND APPARATUS THEREFOR
A method by which a base station transmits a synchronization signal (SS) in a wireless communication system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: generating an SS including a primary synchronization signal (PSS) and a secondary synchronization signal (SSS); and transmitting the synchronization signal. A portion of the synchronization signal is transmitted in a region of a time interval corresponding to the cyclic prefix (CP) of the synchronization signal, and the portion of the synchronization signal includes the PSS and/or the SSS.
Narrow bandwidth part transitions for reduced capability devices
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Wireless communications systems may support implementation of narrow bandwidth parts (NBWPs). For example, a NBWP may be established over a reduced bandwidth to support user equipment (UEs) with reduced complexity features (e.g., such as UEs with reduced bandwidth capabilities). Wireless communications systems may provide for UE transitioning to a NBWP (e.g., after initial cell search), as well as for UE transitioning amongst NBWPs (e.g., subsequent transitions to other NBWPs after an initial transition to a NBWP after initial cell search). For example, a UE may initially transition to a NBWP (e.g., transition to monitor the NBWP for reference signals or to utilize the NBWP for uplink/downlink communications) to support reduced bandwidth capabilities of the UE. Subsequently, the UE may transition amongst other NBWPs for network load balancing, UE frequency hopping gain, etc.
