PHASE-TRACKING REFERENCE SIGNAL ALIGNMENT FOR PHYSICAL SHARED CHANNEL: abstract simplified (17997650)

In this abstract, the focus is on wireless communication methods, systems, and devices. It describes a scenario where a communication device, such as a user equipment (UE), identifies that certain resource elements associated with a phase-tracking reference signal (PRTS) transmission on one channel are combined with resource elements associated with a data transmission on another channel.

To address this, the UE has two options. The first option is to remove the resource elements associated with the data transmission on the second channel and transmit the PRTS transmission on the first channel. The second option is to rearrange the resource elements associated with the PRTS transmission and transmit it on the first channel, while also considering additional resources.

Overall, the abstract highlights the methods and techniques used by a communication device to manage and optimize wireless communications in scenarios where resource elements are shared between different channels.
