Varying a rate of eliciting MIMO transmissions from wireless communication devices
In a general aspect, a rate at which MIMO transmissions are elicited from wireless communication devices is varied. A first wireless communication device may be configured to wirelessly transmit a first set of messages at a first transmission rate to a second wireless communication device. The first wireless communication device may further be configured to receive MIMO transmissions from the second wireless communication device. The first wireless communication device may additionally be configured to generate first channel information based on respective training fields in each of the first MIMO transmissions; determine a rate at which the first channel information is generated; vary the first transmission rate to a second, different transmission rate based on the rate at which the first channel information is generated; and wirelessly transmit a second set of messages at the second transmission rate to the second wireless communication device.
Wireless devices and systems including examples of mixing coefficient data specific to a processing mode selection
Examples described herein include systems and methods which include wireless devices and systems with examples of mixing input data with coefficient data specific to a processing mode selection. For example, a computing system with processing units may mix the input data for a transmission in a radio frequency (RF) wireless domain with the coefficient data to generate output data that is representative of the transmission being processed according to a specific processing mode selection. The processing mode selection may include a single processing mode, a multi-processing mode, or a full processing mode. The processing mode selection may be associated with an aspect of a wireless protocol. Examples of systems and methods described herein may facilitate the processing of data for 5G wireless communications in a power-efficient and time-efficient manner.
Processing device for a network access node for generating phase compensated modulation symbols
The disclosure relates to performing phase compensation at a transmitter. A processing device for a network access node generates a phase compensated modulation symbol based on at least one first modulation symbol and at least on one of a frequency offset parameter and a time offset parameter. The frequency offset parameter may be determined based on an offset between a reference frequency f0 and a DC (0 Hz) frequency such that the frequency offset parameter corresponds to the reference frequency f0. Also, the reference frequency f0 can be at least partly based on the carrier of up-conversion frequency used by the processing device and the reference frequency f0 can be the carrier for up-conversion frequency. The phase compensated symbol is transmitted to a receiver, such as a client device. Furthermore, the disclosure also relates to corresponding methods and a computer program.
Method and device for multi-antenna transmission in UE and base station
The disclosure provides a method and a device for multi-antenna transmission in a base station and a User Equipment (UE). The UE, in turn, receives a first higher-layer signaling, monitors a first-type physical layer signaling in a first radio resource pool, and receives second downlink information in a second radio resource pool. The first higher-layer signaling is used for determining first information and second information, and the first information is used for multi-antenna related receiving in the first radio resource pool. The first-type physical layer signaling is detected, and the first-type physical layer signaling is used for multi-antenna related receiving in the second radio resource pool, or, the first-type physical layer signaling is not detected, and the second information is used for multi-antenna related receiving in the second radio resource pool. The second radio resource pool is related to the first radio resource pool.
SINGLE CARRIER MULTI-LEVEL CODING AMPLITUDE PHASE SHIFT KEYING WAVEFORM
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that support a single carrier multi-level coding (MLC) amplitude phase shift keying (APSK) modulated waveform. For example, a user equipment (UE) capable to communicate using MLC APSK modulated waveforms may transmit a channel state information (CSI) report, including a recommendation for a waveform configuration, to a base station. The base station may receive the CSI report and may transmit a configuration message to the UE, which may configure the UE with a set of waveform parameters associated with MLC APSK modulation. The UE may receive the configuration message and may communicate with the base station using MLC APSK modulated waveforms and based on the set of waveform parameters, which may reduce phase noise and provide lower peak average power ratio (PAPR) signaling.

MULTI-USER DUPLICATE TRANSMISSION
This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for increasing the transmit power of wireless communication devices operating on power spectral density (PSD)-limited wireless channels. Some implementations more specifically relate to tone mapping techniques and packet designs that support duplicate (or “DUP mode”) transmissions to multiple users. In some implementations, an access point (AP) may transmit a PPDU that includes first user data and second user data, where at least the first user data is transmitted in a DUP mode. As such, the first user data may be mapped to a number (N) of tones spanning a first RU in accordance with a dual carrier modulation (DCM) scheme, and a duplicate copy of the first user data may be mapped to N tones spanning a second RU in accordance with the DCM scheme. In some implementations, the second user data also may be transmitted in a DUP mode.
