PRIORITIZATION MECHANISM FOR SRS ANTENNA PORT SWITCHING

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240405827 titled 'PRIORITIZATION MECHANISM FOR SRS ANTENNA PORT SWITCHING

Original Abstract Submitted

systems and methods for networks having user equipment (ue) that can perform measurement/reporting of received signals and a sounding reference signal (srs) transmission that is part of an srs antenna port switching procedure are described herein. in some circumstances, the measurement and the srs antenna port switching procedure overlap on one or more symbols. across various embodiments, the ue prioritizes one of the measurement and the srs antenna port switching procedure based on one or more of a scheduling type (periodic, semi-persistent, aperiodic) of the measurement, a scheduling type of a channel state information (csi) report for a measurement result for the measurement, and/or a scheduling type of the srs transmission of the srs antenna port switching procedure. networks that avoid overlaps by scheduling srs transmissions away from ue signal measurements, or transmissions of signals to be measured away from ue srs antenna port switching procedures, are also described.
