Sounding Reference Signal Resource Indicator Design for 8 Transmit Antenna Uplink Operation - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18364288 titled 'Sounding Reference Signal Resource Indicator Design for 8 Transmit Antenna Uplink Operation
Simplified Explanation
This disclosure describes techniques for configuring 8 transmit antenna uplink operation in a wireless communication system. A wireless device and a cellular base station establish a wireless link, with the device performing sounding reference signal transmissions on each of 8 sounding reference signal resources associated with transmit antenna ports. The device receives an indication from the base station of an 8 transmit antenna port uplink configuration to use, including a sounding reference signal resource indicator, and communicates with the base station using this configuration.

Original Abstract Submitted
This disclosure relates to techniques for configuring 8 transmit antenna uplink operation in a wireless communication system. A wireless device and a cellular base station may establish a wireless link. The wireless device may perform sounding reference signal transmissions on each of 8 sounding reference signal resources, where each resource is associated with a transmit antenna port. The wireless device may receive an indication from the cellular base station of an 8 transmit antenna port uplink configuration to use, which may include a sounding reference signal resource indicator. The wireless device may perform uplink communication with the cellular base station using the 8 transmit antenna port configuration.
