TRANSMITTING CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION REFERENCE SIGNALS IN NEW RADIO - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18330050 titled 'TRANSMITTING CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION REFERENCE SIGNALS IN NEW RADIO

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes techniques for transmitting and processing channel state information (CSI) reference signals (CSI-RS).

  • The method involves determining a configuration of CSI-RSs, which includes specifying a set of resource elements (REs) to be used for CSI-RSs and mapping CSI-RS ports to the set of REs.
  • An indication of the CSI-RS configuration is sent.
  • The CSI-RSs are then transmitted according to the determined configuration.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, including but not limited to:

  • 5G networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Wireless sensor networks
  • Mobile communication systems

Problems Solved

The technology addresses the following problems:

  • Efficient transmission and processing of channel state information (CSI) reference signals (CSI-RS)
  • Optimizing the use of resource elements (REs) for CSI-RSs
  • Simplifying the configuration and mapping of CSI-RS ports

Benefits

The use of this technology offers several benefits:

  • Improved accuracy and reliability of channel state information (CSI) measurements
  • Enhanced performance of wireless communication systems
  • Efficient utilization of network resources
  • Simplified configuration and management of CSI-RSs


Original Abstract Submitted

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for transmitting and processing channel state information (CSI) reference signals (CSI-RS). An exemplary method includes determining a configuration of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs), wherein the configuration indicates a set of resource elements (REs) to be used for CSI-RSs and a first mapping of CSI-RS ports to the set of REs; sending an indication of the configuration of the CSI-RSs; and transmitting the CSI-RSs according to the determined configuration.
