FLEXIBLE CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION REFERENCE SIGNAL AND SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL ASSOCIATION FOR UPLINK MULTIPLE-INPUT MULTIPLE- OUTPUT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17758178 titled 'FLEXIBLE CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION REFERENCE SIGNAL AND SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL ASSOCIATION FOR UPLINK MULTIPLE-INPUT MULTIPLE- OUTPUT

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes a wireless communication system where a user equipment (UE) determines a set of sounding reference signals (SRSs) based on a mapping configuration. The mapping configuration is associated with mapping the SRSs to a set of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs) received by the UE. The UE also determines a set of transmission settings based on the reception settings associated with the CSI-RSs, and transmits the SRSs based on the transmission settings.

  • The patent application relates to wireless communication.
  • The user equipment (UE) determines a set of sounding reference signals (SRSs) based on a mapping configuration.
  • The mapping configuration is associated with mapping the SRSs to a set of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs) received by the UE.
  • The UE determines a set of transmission settings based on the reception settings associated with the CSI-RSs.
  • The UE transmits the SRSs based on the transmission settings.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, including cellular networks and wireless local area networks (WLANs). It can improve the efficiency and reliability of communication between user equipment and base stations.

Problems Solved

This technology solves the problem of efficiently determining and transmitting sounding reference signals (SRSs) in wireless communication systems. By mapping the SRSs to channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs) and determining transmission settings based on reception settings, the system can optimize the communication process and improve overall performance.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved efficiency in determining and transmitting sounding reference signals (SRSs).
  • Enhanced reliability of communication between user equipment and base stations.
  • Optimization of the communication process in wireless communication systems.
  • Improved overall performance of the wireless communication system.


Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may determine a set of sounding reference signals (SRSs) based at least in part on a mapping configuration, the mapping configuration being associated with mapping the set of SRSs to a set of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs) received by the UE, and the set of CSI-RSs being received based at least in part on a set of reception settings, each associated with a respective CSI-RS of the set of CSI-RSs; determine, based at least in part on the set of reception settings, a set of transmission settings, each corresponding to a respective SRS of the set of SRSs; and transmit the set of SRSs based at least in part on the set of transmission settings. Numerous other aspects are provided.
