FLEXIBLE RESOURCE ELEMENT (RE) MAPPING AND POWER CONTROL OF DEMODULATION REFERENCE SIGNAL (DMRS) IN SUB-RESOURCE BLOCK (RB) PHYSICAL UPLINK SHARED CHANNEL (PUSCH) FOR COVERAGE ENHANCEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17923091 titled 'FLEXIBLE RESOURCE ELEMENT (RE) MAPPING AND POWER CONTROL OF DEMODULATION REFERENCE SIGNAL (DMRS) IN SUB-RESOURCE BLOCK (RB) PHYSICAL UPLINK SHARED CHANNEL (PUSCH) FOR COVERAGE ENHANCEMENT

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure is about flexible resource element (RE) mapping and power control of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) in sub-resource block (RB) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). In simpler terms, it relates to how a network entity and a user equipment (UE) communicate and configure the transmission of data in a wireless network.

  • The network entity sends a configuration message to the UE, which includes information about the DMRS frequency-domain comb pattern, DMRS frequency shifting pattern, and transmit power of DMRS REs.
  • The UE receives the configuration message and uses it to perform a sub-RB PUSCH transmission to the network entity.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems that use sub-RB PUSCH transmission can benefit from this technology.
  • It can be applied in various wireless networks, such as 4G LTE and 5G NR, to improve the efficiency and reliability of data transmission.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The flexible RE mapping and power control of DMRS help optimize the transmission of data in sub-RB PUSCH, leading to improved performance and reduced interference.
  • By providing specific configuration information to the UE, the network entity ensures that the transmission is properly synchronized and aligned.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced performance: The optimized RE mapping and power control improve the overall performance of the wireless network by reducing errors and increasing data throughput.
  • Efficient resource utilization: By dynamically configuring the transmission parameters, the network can make better use of available resources, leading to improved efficiency.
  • Improved reliability: The precise configuration of DMRS helps ensure reliable communication between the network entity and the UE, even in challenging wireless environments.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to flexible resource element (RE) mapping and power control of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) in sub-resource block (RB) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). Specifically, a network entity may transmit, and a user equipment (UE) may receive a sub-RB PUSCH configuration message associated with a physical resource block (PRB), the sub-RB PUSCH configuration message including at least a DMRS frequency-domain comb pattern, a DMRS frequency shifting pattern, and a transmit power of a number of DMRS REs. The UE may perform a sub-RB PUSCH transmission to the network entity in response to receiving the sub-RB PUSCH configuration message.
