SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL (SRS) FREQUENCY HOPPING FOR DISTRIBUTED ANTENNA PORT MAPPING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240340130 titled 'SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL (SRS) FREQUENCY HOPPING FOR DISTRIBUTED ANTENNA PORT MAPPING
The abstract of this patent application discusses aspects related to wireless communication, specifically focusing on the transmission of sounding reference signals (SRS) by user equipment (UE) using a distributed mapping to multiple orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols.
- User equipment (UE) receives configuration information indicating a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource set with an SRS resource associated with multiple antenna ports.
- The SRS resource has a distributed mapping to multiple OFDM symbols, allowing the UE to transmit multiple SRSS on the antenna ports in the OFDM symbols.
- The UE uses a frequency hopping pattern for the SRS transmissions, which is determined by the count of SRS transmissions and scaled by the quantity of OFDM symbols.
- The innovation allows for efficient transmission of SRS signals in wireless communication systems.
Potential Applications: - 5G and future wireless communication systems - IoT devices requiring reliable and efficient wireless communication - Smart city infrastructure for data transmission and connectivity
Problems Solved: - Efficient utilization of resources for SRS transmission - Improved signal reliability and coverage in wireless networks
Benefits: - Enhanced performance and reliability of wireless communication systems - Increased capacity and throughput for data transmission - Optimized resource allocation for SRS signals
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Wireless Communication Systems for IoT and 5G Networks" This technology can be utilized in various industries such as telecommunications, IoT, smart cities, and industrial automation for improved wireless communication capabilities.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the distributed mapping of SRS resources to OFDM symbols improve wireless communication efficiency? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this frequency hopping pattern for SRS transmissions in real-world wireless networks?
Original Abstract Submitted
various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. in some aspects, a user equipment (ue) may receive configuration information indicating a sounding reference signal (srs) resource set that includes an srs resource, the srs resource associated with multiple antenna ports having a distributed mapping to multiple orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (ofdm) symbols of the srs resource. the ue may transmit a plurality of srss on the multiple antenna ports in the multiple ofdm symbols of the srs resource using a frequency hopping pattern that is a function of a count of a quantity of srs transmissions, and the count of the quantity of srs transmissions is scaled by a quantity of the multiple ofdm symbols. numerous other aspects are described.
