PORT ASSOCIATION WITH MULTIPLE DEMODULATION REFERENCE SIGNAL (DMRS) PORTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17942090 titled 'PORT ASSOCIATION WITH MULTIPLE DEMODULATION REFERENCE SIGNAL (DMRS) PORTS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on antenna port mapping for tracking reference signals.
- User equipment (UE) receives an indication of an antenna port mapping from a network entity.
- The mapping is between a tracking reference signal and a corresponding reference signal, indicating how a tracking reference signal port is mapped to multiple reference signal antenna ports.
- The UE receives a tracking reference signal via the tracking reference signal port based on the antenna port mapping.
- The UE performs a channel measurement procedure using the tracking reference signal based on the mapping.
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as 5G networks, to improve signal tracking and channel measurement processes.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient mapping of tracking reference signals to multiple antenna ports. 2. Enhanced channel measurement accuracy and reliability. 3. Optimization of wireless communication performance.
Benefits
1. Improved signal reception and transmission quality. 2. Enhanced network efficiency and capacity. 3. Better overall user experience in wireless communication environments.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of an antenna port mapping from a network entity. The antenna port mapping may be between a tracking reference signal and a corresponding reference signal, the antenna port mapping indicating a mapping of a tracking reference signal port to a plurality of reference signal antenna ports associated with the corresponding reference signal. The UE may receive a tracking reference signal via the tracking reference signal port based on the antenna port mapping. The UE may perform a channel measurement procedure using the tracking reference signal based on the mapping.
