MULTI-SLOT REFERENCE SIGNAL TRIGGERING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18249138 titled 'MULTI-SLOT REFERENCE SIGNAL TRIGGERING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a network node that is designed to communicate with a wireless device. The network node has a radio interface and processing circuitry that can transmit a configuration of reference signals to the wireless device. It can also transmit a downlink control information (DCI) that triggers the reference signals in multiple slots. The DCI includes a field indicating the number of slots in which the reference signals should be triggered. The abstract also mentions methods for the network node and the wireless device.

Original Abstract Submitted

A network node is configured to communicate with a wireless device. The network node includes a radio interface and processing circuitry configured to transmit a configuration of a set of reference signals via RRC signaling to the wireless device. The radio interface and processing circuitry are further configured to transmit a downlink control information, DCI, that triggers the set of reference signals in multiple slots to the wireless device. In some embodiments the DCI has a field which indicates the number of slots in which the DCI should trigger the set of reference signals. In some further embodiments the RRC signaling configures the set of reference signals in a number of slots. A method for a network node, a wireless device and a method for a wireless device are also provided.
