CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION REFERENCE SIGNAL PORT MAPPING FOR BASE STATION ANTENNA ADAPTATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17643103 titled 'CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION REFERENCE SIGNAL PORT MAPPING FOR BASE STATION ANTENNA ADAPTATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application relates to wireless communication and specifically focuses on a user equipment (UE) receiving channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS) from a base station.

  • The UE receives an indication of a set of CSI-RS port mappings for different antenna adaptation levels of the base station.
  • The UE then receives a CSI-RS from the base station based on a specific CSI-RS port mapping for a particular antenna adaptation level.
  • The patent application covers various other aspects related to wireless communication.

Potential Applications

This technology has potential applications in the field of wireless communication systems, particularly in improving the efficiency and reliability of communication between user equipment and base stations.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient antenna adaptation: The patent application addresses the problem of optimizing antenna adaptation levels by providing a set of CSI-RS port mappings for different levels, allowing the UE to select the appropriate mapping for improved performance. 2. Channel state information reference: The technology solves the problem of accurately receiving and interpreting CSI-RS signals from the base station, enabling the UE to make informed decisions regarding channel conditions.

Benefits

1. Enhanced communication performance: By selecting the appropriate CSI-RS port mapping, the UE can adapt to different antenna configurations, improving signal quality and overall communication performance. 2. Improved reliability: The technology allows for better estimation of channel state information, enabling more reliable communication between the UE and the base station. 3. Efficient resource allocation: By providing a set of CSI-RS port mappings, the patent application enables efficient allocation of wireless resources, optimizing the use of available bandwidth and reducing interference.


Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a set of channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) port mappings for different antenna adaptation levels of a base station. The UE may receive, from the base station, a CSI-RS in accordance with a first CSI-RS port mapping, from the set of CSI-RS port mappings, for a first antenna adaptation level of the different antenna adaptation levels. Numerous other aspects are described.
