COMMUNICATION METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18486283 titled 'COMMUNICATION METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and apparatus that support flexible configuration of QCL (Quasi Co-Location) information of different reference signal ports. This improves the success rate of performing channel estimation or channel measurement on a transport layer by the reference signal port, and enhances communication efficiency.
- The method involves a transmit end determining first indication information, which is used to configure a first reference signal port. This configuration indicates the first QCL information of the first reference signal port.
- The transmit end then sends the first indication information to a receive end.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Wireless communication systems
- Cellular networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Satellite communication systems
Problems solved by this technology:
- Inefficient channel estimation or measurement on a transport layer
- Limited flexibility in configuring QCL information of reference signal ports
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved success rate of channel estimation or measurement
- Enhanced communication efficiency
- Flexible configuration of QCL information for different reference signal ports
Original Abstract Submitted
Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and a communication apparatus, to support flexible configuration of QCL information of different reference signal ports, improve a success rate of performing channel estimation or channel measurement on a transport layer by the reference signal port, and improve communication efficiency. In the method, a transmit end determines first indication information, where the first indication information is used to configure a first reference signal port, and the configuration indicates first quasi co-location QCL information of the first reference signal port; and then the transmit end sends the first indication information to a receive end.
