TECHNIQUES FOR INDICATING SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL RESOURCES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18246319 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR INDICATING SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL RESOURCES

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It focuses on a user equipment (UE) transmitting a capability message indicating the number of transmit antennas and ports supported for uplink transmission. Based on this message, the UE receives a sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration that maps each SRS resource or resource group to a specific bit sequence. The UE then receives a control message that indicates the SRS resources or resource group using the bit sequences. Finally, the UE transmits SRS signals based on the control message.

  • User equipment (UE) transmits a capability message indicating the number of transmit antennas and ports supported for uplink transmission.
  • UE receives a sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration that maps each SRS resource or resource group to a specific bit sequence.
  • UE receives a control message indicating the SRS resources or resource group using the bit sequences.
  • UE transmits SRS signals based on the control message.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems to enhance the efficiency and reliability of uplink transmission.
  • It can be used in various industries that rely on wireless communication, such as telecommunications, IoT, and mobile devices.

Problems Solved

  • The technology solves the problem of efficiently utilizing transmit antennas and ports for uplink transmission in wireless communication systems.
  • It addresses the challenge of mapping SRS resources or resource groups to specific bit sequences for improved signal transmission.

Benefits

  • Improved efficiency and reliability of uplink transmission in wireless communication systems.
  • Enhanced utilization of transmit antennas and ports.
  • Simplified mapping of SRS resources or resource groups for better signal transmission.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit a capability message indicating a first number of one or more transmit antennas supported by the UE for antenna switching and a second number of ports supported for uplink transmission that exceeds the first number of one or more transmit antennas. The UE may receive, based on the capability message, a sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration indicating a mapping between each SRS resource or SRS resource group and a respective bit sequence of a set of bit sequences. The UE may receive a control message comprising one or more bit sequences of the set of bit sequences indicating one or more SRS resources or an SRS resource group based on the mapping. The UE may transmit one or more SRS signals based on the control message.
