CONTROL INFORMATION FOR SIDELINK SPATIAL DOMAIN MULTIPLEXING FROM MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION RECEPTION POINTS (TRPS) - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18245988 Titled 'CONTROL INFORMATION FOR SIDELINK SPATIAL DOMAIN MULTIPLEXING FROM MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION RECEPTION POINTS (TRPS)'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication between user equipment (UE). The first UE can send sidelink control information (SCI) to a second UE, which includes details about resources and the number of spatial layers for a sidelink transmission. The first UE can use spatial domain multiplexing (SDM) to transmit data packets associated with different spatial layers from different transmission reception points (TRPs). The first UE may have two stages of SCI, with the first stage containing shared information for all spatial layers and the second stage containing separate information for each spatial layer.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) are described. A first user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a second UE, sidelink control information (SCI) including an indication of resources and a number of spatial layers for a sidelink transmission. The first UE may perform spatial domain multiplexing (SDM) between the spatial layers. The first UE may transmit a first data packet associated with the first spatial layer from a first transmission reception point (TRP) and may transmit a second data packet associated with a second spatial layer from a second TRP. In some examples, the first UE may include a first and second stage of the SCI, such that the first SCI corresponds to shared information for all spatial layers and the second stage of the SCI corresponds to separate information for each spatial layer.
