RANK AND RESOURCE SET SIGNALING TECHNIQUES FOR MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION-RECEPTION POINT COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18343866 Titled 'RANK AND RESOURCE SET SIGNALING TECHNIQUES FOR MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION-RECEPTION POINT COMMUNICATIONS'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication. It explains that a user equipment (UE) can send multiple uplink communications to multiple transmission-reception points (TRPs). The transmission parameters for each repetition are determined based on certain parameters, such as the number of antenna ports, a spatial domain filter or beam, a rank or number of layers, or combinations of these parameters. These parameters are determined from an indication of whether the repetitions will use different sounding reference signal (SRS) resource sets, and the indicated SRS resource of each SRS resource set. The indication is provided in the form of a fixed number of bits, regardless of whether one SRS resource set or multiple SRS resource sets are used. This indication is based on the previous configuration of the UE.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described in which a user equipment (UE) may transmit one or more uplink communications to multiple transmission-reception points (TRPs). Transmission parameters for each repetition may be based on parameters (e.g., a number of antenna ports, a spatial domain filter or beam, a rank or number of layers, or any combinations thereof) that are determined from an indication of whether the repetitions are to use different sounding reference signal (SRS) resource sets, and indicated SRS resource of each SRS resource set. The indication may include a same number of bits regardless of whether one SRS resource set is used or multiple SRS resource sets are used, and may be based on a prior configuration of the UE.
