SIGNALING FOR SLOT AGGREGATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18343918 Titled 'SIGNALING FOR SLOT AGGREGATION'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes techniques for slot aggregation in new radio (NR) systems. It explains that a user equipment (UE) can receive radio resource control (RRC) signaling that provides a configuration for transmitting and/or receiving repeated transport blocks (TBs) or different TBs in multiple aggregated slots. The UE then transmits or receives the TBs in these aggregated slots based on the provided configuration. Additionally, the UE can transmit and/or receive a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) in each of the aggregated slots, where each DMRS is associated with a repeated TB or a different TB in the slot. The UE determines whether the DMRS uses the same precoder or a different precoder based on received signaling, and modulates and/or demodulates the TBs in the aggregated slots accordingly.
Original Abstract Submitted
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for slot aggregation in new radio (NR) systems. A method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving radio resource control (RRC) signaling providing a semi-static configuration for transmission and/or reception of a repeated transport block (TB) and/or a different TB in each of a plurality of aggregated slots. The UE transmits or receives the TBs in the plurality of aggregated slots based on the semi-static configuration. Another method is provided in which the UE transmits and/or receives a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) in each of a plurality of aggregated slots, each DMRS associated with a repeated TB or a different TB in the slot. The UE determines, based on received signaling, whether the DMRS use a same precoder or a different precoder and modulates and/or demodulates the TBs in the plurality of aggregated slots based on the determination.
