The following relates to method for wireless communication, including techniques for single transmission occasions across different symbols.
Wireless communications systems are widely deployed to provide various types of communication content such as voice, video, packet data, messaging, broadcast, and so on. These systems may be capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing the available system resources (e.g., time, frequency, and power). Examples of such multiple-access systems include fourth generation (4G) systems such as Long Term Evolution (LTE) systems, LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) systems, or LTE-A Pro systems, and fifth generation (5G) systems which may be referred to as New Radio (NR) systems. These systems may employ technologies such as code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), frequency division multiple access (FDMA), orthogonal FDMA (OFDMA), or discrete Fourier transform spread orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DFT-S-OFDM). A wireless multiple-access communications system may include one or more base stations, each supporting wireless communication for communication devices, which may be known as user equipment (UE).
The described techniques relate to improved methods, systems, devices, and apparatuses that support techniques for single transmission occasions across different symbols.

In some systems, one or more wireless communication devices may support full-duplex or flexible time-division duplexing communications, according to which such devices may simultaneously transmit and receive or may switch between uplink and downlink communication across various time intervals, respectively. In some deployments, a full-duplex or dynamic time-division duplexing capable device may support a sub-band configuration according to which the device may transmit via a first set of one or more sub-bands and receive via a second set of one or more sub-bands, where the first and second sets of sub-bands may overlap or may be non-overlapping in the frequency domain. A time interval supporting multiple sub-bands and full-duplex configuration may be referred to as a subband full-duplex time interval and a time interval supporting multiple sub-bands and non-full-duplex configuration may be referred to as a non-subband full-duplex time interval. Techniques for uplink transmissions and downlink receptions across subband full-duplex symbols and non-subband full-duplex symbols may be enhanced.
One or more aspects of the present disclosure provide for multiple aspects for uplink transmissions and downlink receptions across subband full-duplex symbols and non-subband full-duplex symbols. The aspects depict a set of rules for managing uplink transmissions and downlink receptions at a user equipment (UE) over subband full-duplex symbols and non-subband full-duplex symbols. In particular, the present disclosure provides techniques for communicating over a single occasion (e.g., uplink occasion or downlink occasion) that spans across full duplex symbols (e.g., subband full-duplex symbols) and non-full-duplex symbols (e.g., non-subband full-duplex symbols). The UE may communicate in accordance with a set of rules to handle an occasion overlapping subband full-duplex symbols and non-subband full-duplex symbols. In one case, when a single occasion is scheduled to be across both types of symbols, such an occasion may not be allowed and the UE may not expect such an occasion to occur. In another example, the UE may either drop the occasion or drop a portion of the occasion (that overlaps with a sub-band having a different transmission direction). Additionally, or alternatively, the UE may rate match around the conflicting resource blocks. In another case, when a single occasion is scheduled to be across both types of symbols and across a gap period between the two types of symbols, the UE may either drop the occasion or drop a portion of the occasion. The UE may also rate match around the conflicting resource blocks included in the gap period as well as in the subbands of the subband full-duplex symbol. In some examples, the UE may only rate match around the conflicting resource blocks included in the gap period.
Aspects of the disclosure are initially described in the context of wireless communications systems. Aspects of the disclosure are further illustrated by slot structures. Aspects of the disclosure are further illustrated by and described with reference to apparatus diagrams, system diagrams, and flowcharts that relate to techniques for single transmission occasions across different symbols.
The network entities 105 may be dispersed throughout a geographic area to form the wireless communications system 100 and may include devices in different forms or having different capabilities. In various examples, a network entity 105 may be referred to as a network element, a mobility element, a radio access network (RAN) node, or network equipment, among other nomenclature. In some examples, network entities 105 and UEs 115 may wirelessly communicate via one or more communication links 125 (e.g., a radio frequency (RF) access link). For example, a network entity 105 may support a coverage area 110 (e.g., a geographic coverage area) over which the UEs 115 and the network entity 105 may establish one or more communication links 125. The coverage area 110 may be an example of a geographic area over which a network entity 105 and a UE 115 may support the communication of signals according to one or more radio access technologies (RATs).
The UEs 115 may be dispersed throughout a coverage area 110 of the wireless communications system 100, and each UE 115 may be stationary, or mobile, or both at different times. The UEs 115 may be devices in different forms or having different capabilities. Some example UEs 115 are illustrated in
As described herein, a node of the wireless communications system 100, which may be referred to as a network node, or a wireless node, may be a network entity 105 (e.g., any network entity described herein), a UE 115 (e.g., any UE described herein), a network controller, an apparatus, a device, a computing system, one or more components, or another suitable processing entity configured to perform any of the techniques described herein. For example, a node may be a UE 115. As another example, a node may be a network entity 105. As another example, a first node may be configured to communicate with a second node or a third node. In one aspect of this example, the first node may be a UE 115, the second node may be a network entity 105, and the third node may be a UE 115. In another aspect of this example, the first node may be a UE 115, the second node may be a network entity 105, and the third node may be a network entity 105. In yet other aspects of this example, the first, second, and third nodes may be different relative to these examples. Similarly, reference to a UE 115, network entity 105, apparatus, device, computing system, or the like may include disclosure of the UE 115, network entity 105, apparatus, device, computing system, or the like being a node. For example, disclosure that a UE 115 is configured to receive information from a network entity 105 also discloses that a first node is configured to receive information from a second node.
In some examples, network entities 105 may communicate with the core network 130, or with one another, or both. For example, network entities 105 may communicate with the core network 130 via one or more backhaul communication links 120 (e.g., in accordance with an S1, N2, N3, or other interface protocol). In some examples, network entities 105 may communicate with one another via a backhaul communication link 120 (e.g., in accordance with an X2, Xn, or other interface protocol) either directly (e.g., directly between network entities 105) or indirectly (e.g., via a core network 130). In some examples, network entities 105 may communicate with one another via a midhaul communication link 162 (e.g., in accordance with a midhaul interface protocol) or a fronthaul communication link 168 (e.g., in accordance with a fronthaul interface protocol), or any combination thereof. The backhaul communication links 120, midhaul communication links 162, or fronthaul communication links 168 may be or include one or more wired links (e.g., an electrical link, an optical fiber link), one or more wireless links (e.g., a radio link, a wireless optical link), among other examples or various combinations thereof. A UE 115 may communicate with the core network 130 via a communication link 155.
One or more of the network entities 105 described herein may include or may be referred to as a base station 140 (e.g., a base transceiver station, a radio base station, an NR base station, an access point, a radio transceiver, a NodeB, an eNodeB (eNB), a next-generation NodeB or a giga-NodeB (either of which may be referred to as a gNB), a 5G NB, a next-generation eNB (ng-eNB), a Home NodeB, a Home eNodeB, or other suitable terminology). In some examples, a network entity 105 (e.g., a base station 140) may be implemented in an aggregated (e.g., monolithic, standalone) base station architecture, which may be configured to utilize a protocol stack that is physically or logically integrated within a single network entity 105 (e.g., a single RAN node, such as a base station 140).
In some examples, a network entity 105 may be implemented in a disaggregated architecture (e.g., a disaggregated base station architecture, a disaggregated RAN architecture), which may be configured to utilize a protocol stack that is physically or logically distributed among two or more network entities 105, such as an integrated access backhaul (IAB) network, an open RAN (O-RAN) (e.g., a network configuration sponsored by the O-RAN Alliance), or a virtualized RAN (vRAN) (e.g., a cloud RAN (C-RAN)). For example, a network entity 105 may include one or more of a central unit (CU) 160, a distributed unit (DU) 165, a radio unit (RU) 170, a RAN Intelligent Controller (RIC) 175 (e.g., a Near-Real Time RIC (Near-RT RIC), a Non-Real Time RIC (Non-RT RIC)), a Service Management and Orchestration (SMO) 180 system, or any combination thereof. An RU 170 may also be referred to as a radio head, a smart radio head, a remote radio head (RRH), a remote radio unit (RRU), or a transmission reception point (TRP). One or more components of the network entities 105 in a disaggregated RAN architecture may be co-located, or one or more components of the network entities 105 may be located in distributed locations (e.g., separate physical locations). In some examples, one or more network entities 105 of a disaggregated RAN architecture may be implemented as virtual units (e.g., a virtual CU (VCU), a virtual DU (VDU), a virtual RU (VRU)).
The split of functionality between a CU 160, a DU 165, and an RU 170 is flexible and may support different functionalities depending on which functions (e.g., network layer functions, protocol layer functions, baseband functions, RF functions, and any combinations thereof) are performed at a CU 160, a DU 165, or an RU 170. For example, a functional split of a protocol stack may be employed between a CU 160 and a DU 165 such that the CU 160 may support one or more layers of the protocol stack and the DU 165 may support one or more different layers of the protocol stack. In some examples, the CU 160 may host upper protocol layer (e.g., layer 3 (L3), layer 2 (L2)) functionality and signaling (e.g., Radio Resource Control (RRC), service data adaption protocol (SDAP), Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP)). The CU 160 may be connected to one or more DUs 165 or RUs 170, and the one or more DUs 165 or RUs 170 may host lower protocol layers, such as layer 1 (L1) (e.g., physical (PHY) layer) or L2 (e.g., radio link control (RLC) layer, medium access control (MAC) layer) functionality and signaling, and may each be at least partially controlled by the CU 160.
Additionally, or alternatively, a functional split of the protocol stack may be employed between a DU 165 and an RU 170 such that the DU 165 may support one or more layers of the protocol stack and the RU 170 may support one or more different layers of the protocol stack. The DU 165 may support one or multiple different cells (e.g., via one or more RUs 170). In some cases, a functional split between a CU 160 and a DU 165, or between a DU 165 and an RU 170 may be within a protocol layer (e.g., some functions for a protocol layer may be performed by one of a CU 160, a DU 165, or an RU 170, while other functions of the protocol layer are performed by a different one of the CU 160, the DU 165, or the RU 170). A CU 160 may be functionally split further into CU control plane (CU-CP) and CU user plane (CU-UP) functions. A CU 160 may be connected to one or more DUs 165 via a midhaul communication link 162 (e.g., F1, F1-c, F1-u), and a DU 165 may be connected to one or more RUs 170 via a fronthaul communication link 168 (e.g., open fronthaul (FH) interface). In some examples, a midhaul communication link 162 or a fronthaul communication link 168 may be implemented in accordance with an interface (e.g., a channel) between layers of a protocol stack supported by respective network entities 105 that are in communication via such communication links.
In wireless communications systems (e.g., wireless communications system 100), infrastructure and spectral resources for radio access may support wireless backhaul link capabilities to supplement wired backhaul connections, providing an IAB network architecture (e.g., to a core network 130). In some cases, in an IAB network, one or more network entities 105 (e.g., IAB nodes 104) may be partially controlled by each other. One or more IAB nodes 104 may be referred to as a donor entity or an IAB donor. One or more DUs 165 or one or more RUs 170 may be partially controlled by one or more CUs 160 associated with a donor network entity 105 (e.g., a donor base station 140). The one or more donor network entities 105 (e.g., IAB donors) may be in communication with one or more additional network entities 105 (e.g., IAB nodes 104) via supported access and backhaul links (e.g., backhaul communication links 120). IAB nodes 104 may include an IAB mobile termination (IAB-MT) controlled (e.g., scheduled) by DUs 165 of a coupled IAB donor. An IAB-MT may include an independent set of antennas for relay of communications with UEs 115, or may share the same antennas (e.g., of an RU 170) of an IAB node 104 used for access via the DU 165 of the IAB node 104 (e.g., referred to as virtual IAB-MT (vIAB-MT)). In some examples, the IAB nodes 104 may include DUs 165 that support communication links with additional entities (e.g., IAB nodes 104, UEs 115) within the relay chain or configuration of the access network (e.g., downstream). In such cases, one or more components of the disaggregated RAN architecture (e.g., one or more IAB nodes 104 or components of IAB nodes 104) may be configured to operate according to the techniques described herein.
For instance, an access network (AN) or RAN may include communications between access nodes (e.g., an IAB donor), IAB nodes 104, and one or more UEs 115. The IAB donor may facilitate connection between the core network 130 and the AN (e.g., via a wired or wireless connection to the core network 130). That is, an IAB donor may refer to a RAN node with a wired or wireless connection to core network 130. The IAB donor may include a CU 160 and at least one DU 165 (e.g., and RU 170), in which case the CU 160 may communicate with the core network 130 via an interface (e.g., a backhaul link). IAB donor and IAB nodes 104 may communicate via an F1 interface according to a protocol that defines signaling messages (e.g., an F1 AP protocol). Additionally, or alternatively, the CU 160 may communicate with the core network via an interface, which may be an example of a portion of backhaul link, and may communicate with other CUs 160 (e.g., a CU 160 associated with an alternative IAB donor) via an Xn-C interface, which may be an example of a portion of a backhaul link.
An IAB node 104 may refer to a RAN node that provides IAB functionality (e.g., access for UEs 115, wireless self-backhauling capabilities). A DU 165 may act as a distributed scheduling node towards child nodes associated with the IAB node 104, and the IAB-MT may act as a scheduled node towards parent nodes associated with the IAB node 104. That is, an IAB donor may be referred to as a parent node in communication with one or more child nodes (e.g., an IAB donor may relay transmissions for UEs through one or more other IAB nodes 104). Additionally, or alternatively, an IAB node 104 may also be referred to as a parent node or a child node to other IAB nodes 104, depending on the relay chain or configuration of the AN. Therefore, the IAB-MT entity of IAB nodes 104 may provide a Uu interface for a child IAB node 104 to receive signaling from a parent IAB node 104, and the DU interface (e.g., DUs 165) may provide a Uu interface for a parent IAB node 104 to signal to a child IAB node 104 or UE 115.
For example, IAB node 104 may be referred to as a parent node that supports communications for a child IAB node, or referred to as a child IAB node associated with an IAB donor, or both. The IAB donor may include a CU 160 with a wired or wireless connection (e.g., a backhaul communication link 120) to the core network 130 and may act as parent node to IAB nodes 104. For example, the DU 165 of IAB donor may relay transmissions to UEs 115 through IAB nodes 104, or may directly signal transmissions to a UE 115, or both. The CU 160 of IAB donor may signal communication link establishment via an F1 interface to IAB nodes 104, and the IAB nodes 104 may schedule transmissions (e.g., transmissions to the UEs 115 relayed from the IAB donor) through the DUs 165. That is, data may be relayed to and from IAB nodes 104 via signaling via an NR Uu interface to MT of the IAB node 104. Communications with IAB node 104 may be scheduled by a DU 165 of IAB donor and communications with IAB node 104 may be scheduled by DU 165 of IAB node 104.
In the case of the techniques described herein applied in the context of a disaggregated RAN architecture, one or more components of the disaggregated RAN architecture may be configured to support techniques for single transmission occasions across different symbols as described herein. For example, some operations described as being performed by a UE 115 or a network entity 105 (e.g., a base station 140) may additionally, or alternatively, be performed by one or more components of the disaggregated RAN architecture (e.g., IAB nodes 104, DUs 165, CUs 160, RUs 170, RIC 175, SMO 180).
UEs 115 may be dispersed throughout the wireless communications system 100, and each UE 115 may be stationary or mobile. A UE 115 may also be referred to as a mobile device, a wireless device, a remote device, a handheld device, or a subscriber device, or some other suitable terminology, where the “device” may also be referred to as a unit, a station, a terminal, or a client. A UE 115 may be a device such as a cellular phone, a smart phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a multimedia/entertainment device (e.g., a radio, a MP3 player, or a video device), a camera, a gaming device, a navigation/positioning device (e.g., GNSS (global navigation satellite system) devices based on, for example, GPS (global positioning system), Beidou, GLONASS, or Galileo, or a terrestrial-based device), a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a netbook, a smartbook, a personal computer, a smart device, a wearable device (e.g., a smart watch, smart clothing, smart glasses, virtual reality goggles, a smart wristband, smart jewelry (e.g., a smart ring, a smart bracelet)), a drone, a robot/robotic device, a vehicle, a vehicular device, a meter (e.g., parking meter, electric meter, gas meter, water meter), a monitor, a gas pump, an appliance (e.g., kitchen appliance, washing machine, dryer), a location tag, a medical/healthcare device, an implant, a sensor/actuator, a display, or any other suitable device configured to communicate via a wireless or wired medium. In some examples, a UE 115 may also refer to a wireless local loop (WLL) station, an Internet of Things (IoT) device, an Internet of Everything (IoE) device, or an MTC device, or the like, which may be implemented in various articles such as appliances, drones, robots, vehicles, meters, or the like.
Some UEs 115, such as MTC or IoT devices, may be low cost or low complexity devices, and may provide for automated communication between machines (e.g., via Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication). M2M communication or MTC may refer to data communication technologies that allow devices to communicate with one another or a base station 105 without human intervention. In some examples, M2M communication or MTC may include communications from devices that integrate sensors or meters to measure or capture information and relay that information to a central server or application program that can make use of the information or present the information to humans interacting with the program or application. Some UEs 115 may be designed to collect information or enable automated behavior of machines. Examples of applications for MTC devices include smart metering, inventory monitoring, water level monitoring, equipment monitoring, healthcare monitoring, wildlife monitoring, weather and geological event monitoring, fleet management and tracking, remote security sensing, physical access control, and transaction-based business charging. In an aspect, techniques disclosed herein may be applicable to MTC or IoT UEs. MTC or IoT UEs may include MTC/enhanced MTC (eMTC, also referred to as CAT-M, Cat M1) UEs, NB-IoT (also referred to as CAT NB1) UEs, as well as other types of UEs. eMTC and NB-IoT may refer to future technologies that may evolve from or may be based on these technologies. For example, eMTC may include FeMTC (further eMTC), eFeMTC (enhanced further eMTC), and mMTC (massive MTC), and NB-IoT may include eNB-IoT (enhanced NB-IoT), and FeNB-IoT (further enhanced NB-IoT).
The UEs 115 described herein may be able to communicate with various types of devices, such as other UEs 115 that may sometimes act as relays as well as the network entities 105 and the network equipment including macro eNBs or gNBs, small cell eNBs or gNBs, or relay base stations, among other examples, as shown in
The UEs 115 and the network entities 105 may wirelessly communicate with one another via one or more communication links 125 (e.g., an access link) using resources associated with one or more carriers. The term “carrier” may refer to a set of RF spectrum resources having a defined physical layer structure for supporting the communication links 125. For example, a carrier used for a communication link 125 may include a portion of a RF spectrum band (e.g., a bandwidth part (BWP)) that is operated according to one or more physical layer channels for a given radio access technology (e.g., LTE, LTE-A, LTE-A Pro, NR). Each physical layer channel may carry acquisition signaling (e.g., synchronization signals, system information), control signaling that coordinates operation for the carrier, user data, or other signaling. The wireless communications system 100 may support communication with a UE 115 using carrier aggregation or multi-carrier operation. A UE 115 may be configured with multiple downlink component carriers and one or more uplink component carriers according to a carrier aggregation configuration. Carrier aggregation may be used with both frequency division duplexing (FDD) and time division duplexing (TDD) component carriers. Communication between a network entity 105 and other devices may refer to communication between the devices and any portion (e.g., entity, sub-entity) of a network entity 105. For example, the terms “transmitting,” “receiving,” or “communicating,” when referring to a network entity 105, may refer to any portion of a network entity 105 (e.g., a base station 140, a CU 160, a DU 165, a RU 170) of a RAN communicating with another device (e.g., directly or via one or more other network entities 105).
In some examples, such as in a carrier aggregation configuration, a carrier may also have acquisition signaling or control signaling that coordinates operations for other carriers. A carrier may be associated with a frequency channel (e.g., an evolved universal mobile telecommunication system terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) absolute RF channel number (EARFCN)) and may be identified according to a channel raster for discovery by the UEs 115. A carrier may be operated in a standalone mode, in which case initial acquisition and connection may be conducted by the UEs 115 via the carrier, or the carrier may be operated in a non-standalone mode, in which case a connection is anchored using a different carrier (e.g., of the same or a different radio access technology).
The communication links 125 shown in the wireless communications system 100 may include downlink transmissions (e.g., forward link transmissions) from a network entity 105 to a UE 115, uplink transmissions (e.g., return link transmissions) from a UE 115 to a network entity 105, or both, among other configurations of transmissions. Carriers may carry downlink or uplink communications (e.g., in an FDD mode) or may be configured to carry downlink and uplink communications (e.g., in a TDD mode).
Signal waveforms transmitted via a carrier may be made up of multiple subcarriers (e.g., using multi-carrier modulation (MCM) techniques such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) or discrete Fourier transform spread OFDM (DFT-S-OFDM)). In a system employing MCM techniques, a resource element may refer to resources of one symbol period (e.g., a duration of one modulation symbol) and one subcarrier, in which case the symbol period and subcarrier spacing may be inversely related. The quantity of bits carried by each resource element may depend on the modulation scheme (e.g., the order of the modulation scheme, the coding rate of the modulation scheme, or both), such that a relatively higher quantity of resource elements (e.g., in a transmission duration) and a relatively higher order of a modulation scheme may correspond to a relatively higher rate of communication. A wireless communications resource may refer to a combination of an RF spectrum resource, a time resource, and a spatial resource (e.g., a spatial layer, a beam), and the use of multiple spatial resources may increase the data rate or data integrity for communications with a UE 115.
One or more numerologies for a carrier may be supported, and a numerology may include a subcarrier spacing (Δf) and a cyclic prefix. A carrier may be divided into one or more BWPs having the same or different numerologies. In some examples, a UE 115 may be configured with multiple BWPs. In some examples, a single BWP for a carrier may be active at a given time and communications for the UE 115 may be restricted to one or more active BWPs.
The time intervals for the network entities 105 or the UEs 115 may be expressed in multiples of a basic time unit which may, for example, refer to a sampling period of Ts=1/(Δfmax·Nf) seconds, for which Δfmax may represent a supported subcarrier spacing, and Nf may represent a supported discrete Fourier transform (DFT) size. Time intervals of a communications resource may be organized according to radio frames each having a specified duration (e.g., 10 milliseconds (ms)). Each radio frame may be identified by a system frame number (SFN) (e.g., ranging from 0 to 1023).
Each frame may include multiple consecutively-numbered subframes or slots, and each subframe or slot may have the same duration. In some examples, a frame may be divided (e.g., in the time domain) into subframes, and each subframe may be further divided into a quantity of slots. Alternatively, each frame may include a variable quantity of slots, and the quantity of slots may depend on subcarrier spacing. Each slot may include a quantity of symbol periods (e.g., depending on the length of the cyclic prefix prepended to each symbol period). In some wireless communications systems 100, a slot may further be divided into multiple mini-slots associated with one or more symbols. Excluding the cyclic prefix, each symbol period may be associated with one or more (e.g., Nf) sampling periods. The duration of a symbol period may depend on the subcarrier spacing or frequency band of operation.
A subframe, a slot, a mini-slot, or a symbol may be the smallest scheduling unit (e.g., in the time domain) of the wireless communications system 100 and may be referred to as a transmission time interval (TTI). In some examples, the TTI duration (e.g., a quantity of symbol periods in a TTI) may be variable. Additionally, or alternatively, the smallest scheduling unit of the wireless communications system 100 may be dynamically selected (e.g., in bursts of shortened TTIs (sTTIs)).
Physical channels may be multiplexed for communication using a carrier according to various techniques. A physical control channel and a physical data channel may be multiplexed for signaling via a downlink carrier, for example, using one or more of time division multiplexing (TDM) techniques, frequency division multiplexing (FDM) techniques, or hybrid TDM-FDM techniques. A control region (e.g., a control resource set (CORESET)) for a physical control channel may be defined by a set of symbol periods and may extend across the system bandwidth or a subset of the system bandwidth of the carrier. One or more control regions (e.g., CORESETs) may be configured for a set of the UEs 115. For example, one or more of the UEs 115 may monitor or search control regions for control information according to one or more search space sets, and each search space set may include one or multiple control channel candidates in one or more aggregation levels arranged in a cascaded manner. An aggregation level for a control channel candidate may refer to an amount of control channel resources (e.g., control channel elements (CCEs)) associated with encoded information for a control information format having a given payload size. Search space sets may include common search space sets configured for sending control information to multiple UEs 115 and UE-specific search space sets for sending control information to a specific UE 115.
A network entity 105 may provide communication coverage via one or more cells, for example a macro cell, a small cell, a hot spot, or other types of cells, or any combination thereof. The term “cell” may refer to a logical communication entity used for communication with a network entity 105 (e.g., using a carrier) and may be associated with an identifier for distinguishing neighboring cells (e.g., a physical cell identifier (PCID), a virtual cell identifier (VCID), or others). In some examples, a cell also may refer to a coverage area 110 or a portion of a coverage area 110 (e.g., a sector) over which the logical communication entity operates. Such cells may range from smaller areas (e.g., a structure, a subset of structure) to larger areas depending on various factors such as the capabilities of the network entity 105. For example, a cell may be or include a building, a subset of a building, or exterior spaces between or overlapping with coverage areas 110, among other examples.
In some examples, a network entity 105 (e.g., a base station 140, an RU 170) may be movable and therefore provide communication coverage for a moving coverage area 110. In some examples, different coverage areas 110 associated with different technologies may overlap, but the different coverage areas 110 may be supported by the same network entity 105. In some other examples, the overlapping coverage areas 110 associated with different technologies may be supported by different network entities 105. The wireless communications system 100 may include, for example, a heterogeneous network in which different types of the network entities 105 provide coverage for various coverage areas 110 using the same or different radio access technologies.
The wireless communications system 100 may support synchronous or asynchronous operation. For synchronous operation, network entities 105 (e.g., base stations 140) may have similar frame timings, and transmissions from different network entities 105 may be approximately aligned in time. For asynchronous operation, network entities 105 may have different frame timings, and transmissions from different network entities 105 may, in some examples, not be aligned in time. The techniques described herein may be used for either synchronous or asynchronous operations.
The wireless communications system 100 may be configured to support ultra-reliable communications or low-latency communications, or various combinations thereof. For example, the wireless communications system 100 may be configured to support ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC). The UEs 115 may be designed to support ultra-reliable, low-latency, or critical functions. Ultra-reliable communications may include private communication or group communication and may be supported by one or more services such as push-to-talk, video, or data. Support for ultra-reliable, low-latency functions may include prioritization of services, and such services may be used for public safety or general commercial applications. The terms ultra-reliable, low-latency, and ultra-reliable low-latency may be used interchangeably herein.
In some examples, a UE 115 may be configured to support communicating directly with other UEs 115 via a device-to-device (D2D) communication link 135 (e.g., in accordance with a peer-to-peer (P2P), D2D, or sidelink protocol). In some examples, one or more UEs 115 of a group that are performing D2D communications may be within the coverage area 110 of a network entity 105 (e.g., a base station 140, an RU 170), which may support aspects of such D2D communications being configured by (e.g., scheduled by) the network entity 105. In some examples, one or more UEs 115 of such a group may be outside the coverage area 110 of a network entity 105 or may be otherwise unable to or not configured to receive transmissions from a network entity 105. In some examples, groups of the UEs 115 communicating via D2D communications may support a one-to-many (1:M) system in which each UE 115 transmits to each of the other UEs 115 in the group. In some examples, a network entity 105 may facilitate the scheduling of resources for D2D communications. In some other examples, D2D communications may be carried out between the UEs 115 without an involvement of a network entity 105.
The core network 130 may provide user authentication, access authorization, tracking, Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity, and other access, routing, or mobility functions. The core network 130 may be an evolved packet core (EPC) or 5G core (5GC), which may include at least one control plane entity that manages access and mobility (e.g., a mobility management entity (MME), an access and mobility management function (AMF)) and at least one user plane entity that routes packets or interconnects to external networks (e.g., a serving gateway (S-GW), a Packet Data Network (PDN) gateway (P-GW), or a user plane function (UPF)). The control plane entity may manage non-access stratum (NAS) functions such as mobility, authentication, and bearer management for the UEs 115 served by the network entities 105 (e.g., base stations 140) associated with the core network 130. User IP packets may be transferred through the user plane entity, which may provide IP address allocation as well as other functions. The user plane entity may be connected to IP services 150 for one or more network operators. The IP services 150 may include access to the Internet, Intranet(s), an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), or a Packet-Switched Streaming Service.
The wireless communications system 100 may operate using one or more frequency bands, which may be in the range of 300 megahertz (MHz) to 300 gigahertz (GHz). Generally, the region from 300 MHz to 3 GHz is known as the ultra-high frequency (UHF) region or decimeter band because the wavelengths range from approximately one decimeter to one meter in length. UHF waves may be blocked or redirected by buildings and environmental features, which may be referred to as clusters, but the waves may penetrate structures sufficiently for a macro cell to provide service to the UEs 115 located indoors. Communications using UHF waves may be associated with smaller antennas and shorter ranges (e.g., less than 100 kilometers) compared to communications using the smaller frequencies and longer waves of the high frequency (HF) or very high frequency (VHF) portion of the spectrum below 300 MHz.
The wireless communications system 100 may also operate using a super high frequency (SHF) region, which may be in the range of 3 GHz to 30 GHz, also known as the centimeter band, or using an extremely high frequency (EHF) region of the spectrum (e.g., from 30 GHz to 300 GHz), also known as the millimeter band. In some examples, the wireless communications system 100 may support millimeter wave (mmW) communications between the UEs 115 and the network entities 105 (e.g., base stations 140, RUs 170), and EHF antennas of the respective devices may be smaller and more closely spaced than UHF antennas. In some examples, such techniques may facilitate using antenna arrays within a device. The propagation of EHF transmissions, however, may be subject to even greater attenuation and shorter range than SHF or UHF transmissions. The techniques disclosed herein may be employed across transmissions that use one or more different frequency regions, and designated use of bands across these frequency regions may differ by country or regulating body.
The wireless communications system 100 may utilize both licensed and unlicensed RF spectrum bands. For example, the wireless communications system 100 may employ License Assisted Access (LAA), LTE-Unlicensed (LTE-U) radio access technology, or NR technology using an unlicensed band such as the 5 GHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band. While operating using unlicensed RF spectrum bands, devices such as the network entities 105 and the UEs 115 may employ carrier sensing for collision detection and avoidance. In some examples, operations using unlicensed bands may be based on a carrier aggregation configuration in conjunction with component carriers operating using a licensed band (e.g., LAA). Operations using unlicensed spectrum may include downlink transmissions, uplink transmissions, P2P transmissions, or D2D transmissions, among other examples.
A network entity 105 (e.g., a base station 140, an RU 170) or a UE 115 may be equipped with multiple antennas, which may be used to employ techniques such as transmit diversity, receive diversity, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications, or beamforming. The antennas of a network entity 105 or a UE 115 may be located within one or more antenna arrays or antenna panels, which may support MIMO operations or transmit or receive beamforming. For example, one or more base station antennas or antenna arrays may be co-located at an antenna assembly, such as an antenna tower. In some examples, antennas or antenna arrays associated with a network entity 105 may be located at diverse geographic locations. A network entity 105 may include an antenna array with a set of rows and columns of antenna ports that the network entity 105 may use to support beamforming of communications with a UE 115. Likewise, a UE 115 may include one or more antenna arrays that may support various MIMO or beamforming operations. Additionally, or alternatively, an antenna panel may support RF beamforming for a signal transmitted via an antenna port.
The network entities 105 or the UEs 115 may use MIMO communications to exploit multipath signal propagation and increase spectral efficiency by transmitting or receiving multiple signals via different spatial layers. Such techniques may be referred to as spatial multiplexing. The multiple signals may, for example, be transmitted by the transmitting device via different antennas or different combinations of antennas. Likewise, the multiple signals may be received by the receiving device via different antennas or different combinations of antennas. Each of the multiple signals may be referred to as a separate spatial stream and may carry information associated with the same data stream (e.g., the same codeword) or different data streams (e.g., different codewords). Different spatial layers may be associated with different antenna ports used for channel measurement and reporting. MIMO techniques include single-user MIMO (SU-MIMO), for which multiple spatial layers are transmitted to the same receiving device, and multiple-user MIMO (MU-MIMO), for which multiple spatial layers are transmitted to multiple devices.
Beamforming, which may also be referred to as spatial filtering, directional transmission, or directional reception, is a signal processing technique that may be used at a transmitting device or a receiving device (e.g., a network entity 105, a UE 115) to shape or steer an antenna beam (e.g., a transmit beam, a receive beam) along a spatial path between the transmitting device and the receiving device. Beamforming may be achieved by combining the signals communicated via antenna elements of an antenna array such that some signals propagating along particular orientations with respect to an antenna array experience constructive interference while others experience destructive interference. The adjustment of signals communicated via the antenna elements may include a transmitting device or a receiving device applying amplitude offsets, phase offsets, or both to signals carried via the antenna elements associated with the device. The adjustments associated with each of the antenna elements may be defined by a beamforming weight set associated with a particular orientation (e.g., with respect to the antenna array of the transmitting device or receiving device, or with respect to some other orientation).
A network entity 105 or a UE 115 may use beam sweeping techniques as part of beamforming operations. For example, a network entity 105 (e.g., a base station 140, an RU 170) may use multiple antennas or antenna arrays (e.g., antenna panels) to conduct beamforming operations for directional communications with a UE 115. Some signals (e.g., synchronization signals, reference signals, beam selection signals, or other control signals) may be transmitted by a network entity 105 multiple times along different directions. For example, the network entity 105 may transmit a signal according to different beamforming weight sets associated with different directions of transmission. Transmissions along different beam directions may be used to identify (e.g., by a transmitting device, such as a network entity 105, or by a receiving device, such as a UE 115) a beam direction for later transmission or reception by the network entity 105.
The wireless communications system 100 may be a packet-based network that operates according to a layered protocol stack. In the user plane, communications at the bearer or PDCP layer may be IP-based. An RLC layer may perform packet segmentation and reassembly to communicate via logical channels. A MAC layer may perform priority handling and multiplexing of logical channels into transport channels. The MAC layer also may implement error detection techniques, error correction techniques, or both to support retransmissions to improve link efficiency. In the control plane, an RRC layer may provide establishment, configuration, and maintenance of an RRC connection between a UE 115 and a network entity 105 or a core network 130 supporting radio bearers for user plane data. A PHY layer may map transport channels to physical channels.
The UEs 115 and the network entities 105 may support retransmissions of data to increase the likelihood that data is received successfully. Hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback is one technique for increasing the likelihood that data is received correctly via a communication link (e.g., a communication link 125, a D2D communication link 135). HARQ may include a combination of error detection (e.g., using a cyclic redundancy check (CRC)), forward error correction (FEC), and retransmission (e.g., automatic repeat request (ARQ)). HARQ may improve throughput at the MAC layer in poor radio conditions (e.g., low signal-to-noise conditions). In some examples, a device may support same-slot HARQ feedback, in which case the device may provide HARQ feedback in a specific slot for data received via a previous symbol in the slot. In some other examples, the device may provide HARQ feedback in a subsequent slot, or according to some other time interval.
In some examples, a UE 115 may receive an indication that an occasion of a set of one or more occasions for a message occurs over a set of symbols. In some examples, the set of symbols may include a set of full-duplex symbols and a set of non-full-duplex symbols. The UE 115 may then communicate the message via the occasion in accordance with a set of rules and based on the occasion being across at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols and at least one non-full-duplex symbol of the set of non-full-duplex symbols.
The network entity 105-a and the UE 115-a may each be configured to communicate according to a full duplex communication configuration (e.g., supportive of both downlink communications and uplink communications simultaneously), such as inband full-duplex, subband full-duplex, or the like, among other examples. For example, the communication link 205 may be used for downlink communications, uplink communications, or both. As illustrated, the network entity 105-a and the UE 115-a may communicate transmissions via slots 210, where each slot 210 may be structured to support communications in one or more directions.
The slots 210 may be examples of subband full-duplex slots structured according to a subband full-duplex slot format or non-subband full-duplex, where one or more portions of a slot are allocated for uplink transmissions and one or more other portions of the slot are allocated for downlink transmissions. The slot format may be defined as a ‘D+U’ slot, which may be a slot in which a frequency band (or frequency subband) is used for both uplink and downlink transmissions. The downlink and uplink transmissions may occur in overlapping bands or adjacent bands (e.g., subband full-duplex). In some examples, downlink and uplink bands in a ‘D+U’ slot may be separated by a frequency guard band, which may reduce interference between the bands. In a given ‘D+U’ slot, a full duplex UE 115 can transmit in an uplink band and/or receive in a downlink band in a same slot. For example, slot 210-a may include only downlink symbols, while slots 210-b and 210-c include uplink and downlink symbols, and slot 210-d may include only uplink symbols. Further, slots 210-b and 210-c may each include two downlink subbands and one uplink subband, though the downlink subbands within slot 210-b may each be wider than the downlink subbands in slot 210-c. Thus, the slots 210-a and 210-d may be considered non-subband full-duplex the slots 210-b and 210-c may be considered subband full-duplex slots.
The wireless communications system 200 may support duplex enhancement at the network entity side and half duplex operation at the UE side. In case of in-band full-duplex operation, the UE 115-a and the network entity 105-a may transmit and receive on the same time and frequency resource. The downlink and uplink may share the same in-band full-duplex time and frequency resource (full or partial overlap). In case of subband full-duplex operation, the UE 115-a and the network entity 105-a may transmit and receive at the same time but on the different frequency resources. The downlink resource may be separated from the uplink resource in frequency domain. In subband full-duplex, an increase in uplink duty cycle may lead to: latency reduction, (e.g., it may be possible to transmit uplink signal in downlink only slots or receive downlink signal in uplink only slots), which can enable latency savings. The increase in uplink duty cycle may also provide uplink coverage improvement. The wireless communications system 200 may enhance system capacity or resource utilization or spectrum efficiency. Additionally, or alternatively, the wireless communications system 200 may enable flexible and dynamic uplink or downlink resource adaption according to uplink or downlink traffic in a robust manner.
According to one or more aspects depicted herein, the wireless communications system 200 may support transmission and reception of a scheduled or configured physical downlink control channel without repetition, a scheduled or configured physical uplink control channel without repetition, a scheduled or configured physical uplink shared channel without repetition, a scheduled or configured physical downlink shared channel without repetition, a scheduled or configured physical downlink control channel with repetition, a scheduled or configured physical uplink control channel with repetition, a scheduled or configured physical uplink shared channel with repetition, a scheduled or configured physical downlink shared channel with repetition, a scheduled or configured sounding reference signal, a scheduled or configured channel state information reference signal, a scheduled or configured transport block over multiple slots with repetition, a scheduled or configured transport block over multiple slots without repetition, multiple physical uplink shared channel scheduled by a single downlink control information, multiple physical downlink shared channel scheduled by a single downlink control information, or a combination thereof. Techniques depicted herein support resource allocation in frequency domain including frequency hopping, resource allocation in time domain, power domain, and spatial domain.
In some examples, the UE 115-a may receive an indication that an occasion of a set of one or more occasions for a message occurs over a set of symbols, where the set of symbols includes a set of full-duplex symbols and a set of non-full-duplex symbols. The UE 115-a may communicate the message via the occasion in accordance with a set of rules and based on the occasion being across at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols and at least one non-full-duplex symbol of the set of non-full-duplex symbols. In some examples, the set of full-duplex symbols and the set of non-full-duplex symbols may be included in same slot or in different slots. Additionally, or alternatively, the set of full-duplex symbols and the set of non-full-duplex symbols may be included in different slots may include physical uplink shared channel repetition type B or supports transport block processing over multiple slots or both.
In the example of
Although depicted as a physical downlink shared channel, it is to be understood that the single occasion may be one occasion of one or more of a scheduled or configured physical downlink control channel without repetition, a scheduled or configured physical uplink control channel without repetition, a scheduled or configured physical uplink shared channel without repetition, a scheduled or configured physical downlink shared channel without repetition, a scheduled or configured physical downlink control channel with repetition, a scheduled or configured physical uplink control channel with repetition, a physical uplink shared channel with repetition, a scheduled or configured physical downlink shared channel with repetition, a scheduled or configured sounding reference signal, a scheduled or configured channel state information reference signal, a scheduled or configured transport block over multiple slots with repetition, a scheduled or configured transport block over multiple slots without repetition, multiple physical uplink shared channel scheduled by a single downlink control information, multiple physical downlink shared channel scheduled by a single downlink control information, or a combination thereof.
As depicted in
As depicted in the example of
Additionally, or alternatively, the set of rules may indicate that the resource or occasion is dropped (e.g., if configured resource cannot avoid the boundary between a full-duplex symbol and a non-full-duplex symbol. For example, the UE 115 may drop the message corresponding to the physical downlink shared channel 325-a in accordance with the set of rules and based on the occasion including a multi-symbol resource having a transmission direction that conflicts with at least one subband of the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols. In some examples, this option may apply to semi-persistently scheduled physical downlink shared channel, physical uplink shared channel configured grant, among others.
In the example of
As depicted in
In some examples, the set of rules may indicate that the UE 115 is to rate match around the conflicting resource blocks on reverse direction subbands. As depicted in the example of
In some examples, the UE 115 may support an implicit downlink rate matching around the conflicting resource block (using an implicit rule). Additionally, or alternatively, the UE 115 may support an implicit uplink cancellation rule around the conflicting resource block (using an implicit rule). In some examples, the UE 115 may receive, from the network entity 105, an indication to perform uplink cancellation for one or more resource blocks, or one or more symbols, or both, of the message in accordance with the set of rules. In some cases, the uplink cancellation may be performed based on the occasion including the one or more resource blocks having a transmission direction that conflicts with at least one subband, or at least one guard band, or both, of the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols or at least one resource block of the set of non-full-duplex symbols.
Additionally, or alternatively, two explicit frequency domain resource allocations or time domain resource allocations for the same resource on different types of symbols may be indicated to the UE 115 or may be identified by the UE 115. For instance, the UE 115 may identify one or more occasions of the message associated with a set of frequency domain resource allocations, or a set of time domain resource allocations, or both, based on the set of rules. The set of frequency domain resource allocations, or a set of time domain resource allocations may be associated with the set of non-subband full-duplex symbols or slots or the set of full-duplex symbols or slots. As an example, a first frequency domain resource allocation, or a first time domain resource allocation, or both, may be associated with the full-duplex symbols (e.g., SBFD symbols). Additionally, a second frequency domain resource allocation, or a second time domain resource allocation, or both, may be associated with the non-full-duplex symbols (e.g., uplink symbols, downlink symbols, flexible symbols). The UE 115 may receive a control message indicating the set of frequency domain resource allocations, or the set of time domain resource allocations, or both, for one or more resource blocks of the one or more occasions. In some cases, the UE 115 may (e.g., implicitly) apply or determine which occasion(s), on which symbols, use the first frequency domain resource allocation and/or the first time domain resource allocation, as well as which occasion(s), on which symbols, use the second frequency domain resource allocation and/or the second time domain resource allocation, for example, based on a full-duplex time and frequency location indication. In some examples, communicating the message may be based on the set of frequency domain resource allocations, or the set of time domain resource allocations, or both.
In the example of
As depicted in
In some examples, the set of rules may indicate that the UE 115 is to rate match around the conflicting resource blocks (portion 530) on reverse direction subbands across both subband full-duplex symbols and non-subband full-duplex symbols. That is, the UE 115 may perform rate matching around one or more resource blocks of the message in accordance with the set of rules. In some cases, the rate matching is performed based on the occasion including the one or more resource blocks having a transmission direction that conflicts with at least one subband of the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols. In some examples, the one or more resource blocks may correspond to the at least one subband or at least one guard band of the at least one full-duplex symbol and at least one subband of the at least one non-full-duplex symbol of the set of non-full-duplex symbols. For instance, the UE 115 may rate match around physical downlink control channel or physical downlink shared channel 525 resource blocks in uplink subband 520 in both subband full-duplex symbols and non-subband full-duplex symbols. Additionally, or alternatively, the UE 115 may rate match around physical uplink control channel or physical uplink shared channel resource blocks in downlink subband 515 in both subband full-duplex symbols and non-subband full-duplex symbols.

In some examples, the set of rules may indicate that the UE 115 may use the conflicting resource blocks over the portion 630 on reverse direction subbands, even with confliction. For example, the UE 115 may receive an indication or may implicitly update uplink resource blocks (conflicting with the physical downlink shared channel 625) to “downlink-only” if subband full-duplex is configured on a downlink symbol or on a flexible symbol. In some examples, the UE 115 may receive a control message indicating that the UE 115 update at least one subband of the at least one full-duplex symbol in accordance with the set of rules. In some cases, the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols may correspond to a downlink symbol or a flexible symbol. The UE 115 may determine that the message to be communicated corresponds to a downlink transmission and the occasion includes a multi-symbol resource having a transmission direction that conflicts with at least one subband of the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols. In such cases, the UE 115 communicating the message may include the UE 115 receiving the downlink transmission via the occasion based on the control message.
Additionally, or alternatively, if the subband full-duplex is configured on a flexible symbol, then the resource blocks outside uplink subband may become flexible subband. For instance, the UE 115 may transmit uplink using portion 645 in flexible subband 635 and uplink subband 620. The UE 115 may transmit such an uplink message based on receiving an indication. In some examples, the UE 115 may receive a control message indicating that the UE 115 update at least one subband of the at least one full-duplex symbol in accordance with the set of rules. In some cases, the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols may correspond to a flexible symbol. The UE 115 may then determine that the message corresponds to an uplink transmission and the occasion includes a multi-symbol resource having a transmission direction that conflicts with at least one subband of the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols. In such cases, the UE 115 communicating the message may include the UE 115 transmitting the uplink transmission via the occasion based on the control message.
In the example of

In some examples, the set of rules may indicate that the UE 115 may be able to communicate the physical downlink shared channel 725 message or the physical uplink shared channel 740 using their corresponding occasions that do not overlap with a subband that has a different transmission direction. For example, the UE 115 may determine that the message corresponds to a downlink transmission (associated with physical downlink shared channel 725) and the occasion includes a multi-symbol resource having a transmission direction that corresponds to a transmission direction of a first subband (downlink subband 715) of the at least one full-duplex symbol. In such cases, the message may be non-overlapping with one or more other subbands of the at least one full-duplex symbol. The UE 115 communicating the message may include the UE 115 receiving the downlink transmission via the first subband. Additionally, or alternatively, the UE 115 may determine that the message corresponds to an uplink transmission (associated with physical uplink shared channel 740) and the occasion includes a multi-symbol resource having a transmission direction that corresponds to a transmission direction of a first subband (uplink subband 720) of the at least one full-duplex symbol. In some cases, the message may be non-overlapping with one or more other subbands of the at least one full-duplex symbol. The UE 115 communicating the message may include the UE 115 transmitting the uplink transmission via the first subband.
In the example of
As depicted in
In some examples, the set of rules may indicate that such a case is not allowed (e.g., error case), and the UE 115 may not expect the physical downlink shared channel 825 in the downlink symbol 805 to end in gap period 850 before the first subband full-duplex symbol. Additionally, or alternatively, the set of rules may indicate that the resource or occasion is to be dropped by the UE 115 (if such a case cannot be avoided by the UE 115). In some examples, the UE 115 may drop a message of an occasion in accordance with the set of rules, where the occasion of the set of one or more occasions is across the at least one non-full-duplex symbol of the set of non-full-duplex symbols and a gap period 850 that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols. In some cases, the UE 115 may determine that the message ends within the gap period 850.
In some examples, the set of rules may indicate that the UE 115 is to rate match around the portion 830 included in the gap period 850. The UE 115 may rate match around portion 830 to exclude the part overlapped with the gap period 850. For example, the UE 115 may perform rate matching around one or more resource blocks of a second message included in the occasion in accordance with the set of rules, where the one or more resource blocks overlap with the gap period 850. In some examples, the UE 115 may receive the message (corresponding to the physical downlink shared channel 825) via the occasion based on performing the rate matching around the one or more resource blocks (corresponding to the portion 830).

Additionally, physical downlink shared channel 925 in a non-subband full-duplex symbol (e.g., downlink-uplink symbol) may end in the second downlink symbol after the gap. In some examples, physical downlink shared channel 925 in a non-subband full-duplex symbol (e.g., uplink-downlink-uplink symbol) may end in the second downlink symbol after the gap period. In some cases, the physical downlink shared channel 925 in a downlink symbol 905 may end in the second non-subband full-duplex symbol (e.g., uplink-downlink-uplink symbol) after the gap.
As depicted in the example of
In some examples, the set of rules may indicate that the UE 115 is to rate match around the resource or occasion. The UE 115 may rate match around the portion 930 overlapping with the gap period 950 and after the gap period 950 if the portion 930 does not include a demodulation reference signal. In some cases, the rate matching may apply to certain channels or reference signals (e.g., semi-persistently scheduled signal or a configured grant). For instance, the UE 115 may perform rate matching around one or more resource blocks (corresponding to the portion 930) of the message (corresponding to the physical downlink shared channel 925) in accordance with the set of rules. The rate matching may be performed based on the occasion including the one or more resource blocks having a transmission direction that conflicts with at least one subband, or at least one guard band, or both, of the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols or at least one or more resource blocks of the set of non-full-duplex symbols. Additionally, the one or more resource blocks may overlap with the gap period 950 and the at least one full-duplex symbol (e.g., downlink symbol 905) or the at least one or more resource blocks of the set of non-full-duplex symbols (e.g., corresponding to downlink subband 915 and uplink subband 920).

In some examples, the occasion may be across the set of non-full-duplex symbols, the set of full-duplex symbols, and a gap period 1050 that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols. The UE 115 may perform rate matching around one or more resource blocks 1030 of the message in accordance with the set of rules. The rate matching may be performed based on the occasion includes the one or more resource blocks having a transmission direction that conflicts with at least one subband, or at least one guard band, or both, of the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols or at least one or more resource blocks of the set of non-full-duplex symbols. The one or more resource blocks may overlap with the gap period 1050, each subband (downlink subband 1015 and uplink subband 1020) of the at least one subband, and at least one subband of the at least one non-full-duplex symbol (downlink symbol 1005) of the set of non-full-duplex symbols corresponding to the at least one subband of the at least one full-duplex symbol.
The UE 115 may receive, either by RRC or by a downlink control information signal, the set of rules indicating that the UE 115 is to rate match around resource blocks 1030 for physical downlink shared channel 1025 (including demodulation reference signal 1060) in subband full-duplex symbols. In some examples, a first portion of the physical downlink shared channel 1025 overlapping with the downlink symbol 1005 and a second portion of the physical downlink shared channel 1025 overlapping with the downlink subband 1015 and the uplink subband 1020 of subband full-duplex symbols may include demodulation reference signal 1060. In such cases, if the UE 115 or the network entity 105 cannot maintain phase continuity with the gap period 1050, in case of a downlink channel, the set of rules may indicate that the UE 115 is to bundle demodulation reference signal 1060 symbols within the part before the gap period 1050, and to also bundle demodulation reference signal 1060 symbols within the part after the gap period 1050.
In some examples, the UE 115 may bundle, in accordance with the set of rules, one or more demodulation reference signal 1060 symbols included in the occasion prior to the gap period 1050 that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols. The UE 115 may also bundle, in accordance with the set of rules, one or more demodulation reference signal 1060 symbols included in the occasion after the gap period 1050 that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols.
In case of uplink channel, the set of rules may indicate that the network entity 105 is to bundle demodulation reference signal 1060 symbols within the part before the gap period 1050, and is to bundle demodulation reference signal 1060 symbols within the part after the gap period 1050. In some examples, the nominal time (for uplink demodulation reference signal bundling) restarts at the symbol boundary. The set of rules may include a condition of the gap period 1050 causing phase continuity not to be maintained across transmissions of physical uplink control channel repetition within the nominal time. In some cases, the UE 115 may not keep phase coherency across the slot types.
In some examples, the UE 115 may inform the network entity 105 that the filter change may cause phase discontinuity. In response, the network entity 105 may bundle the two parts separately. Alternatively, both the UE 115 and the network entity 105 may bundle both parts. The nominal time may not break or restart. In some cases, the UE may inform to the network entity 105, that filter change may not cause phase discontinuity. In some examples, the network entity 105 may perform uplink cancellation for one or more resource blocks of the message in accordance with the set of rules. In some examples, the uplink cancellation may be performed based on the occasion including the one or more resource blocks having a transmission direction that conflicts with at least one subband, or at least one guard band, or both, of the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols or at least one or more resource blocks of the set of non-full-duplex symbols. The one or more resource blocks may overlap with the gap period and the at least one full-duplex symbol or at least one or more resource blocks of the set of non-full-duplex symbols.

In some examples, the set of rules may indicate that such a configuration is not allowed, and the UE 115 may not expect the occasion to be across the set of non-full-duplex symbols, the set of full-duplex symbols, and the gap period 1150 that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols. Additionally, or alternatively, the set of rules may indicate that, if the UE 115 cannot maintain phase continuity, then the UE 115 may rate match around the portion 1130 without the demodulation reference signal 1160. For instance, the UE 115 may perform rate matching around the one or more resource blocks of the message in accordance with the set of rules. For example, the rate matching may be performed based on one or more demodulation reference signal symbols being included in the occasion prior to the gap period 1150 that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols.

The UE 115 may perform rate matching around one or more resource blocks (correspond to portion 1230) of the message in accordance with the set of rules and based on the occasion including the one or more resource blocks having a transmission direction that conflicts with at least one subband, or at least one guard band, or both, of the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols or at least one or more resource blocks of the set of non-full-duplex symbols. In some examples, the one or more resource blocks overlap with the gap period and each subband of the at least one subband. The rate matching may be performed based on one or more demodulation reference signal 1260 symbols being included in the occasion prior to and after the gap period 1250 that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols. In some examples, the set of rules may indicate that the UE 115 may rate match around a channel or reference signal correspond to resource elements overlapping with the gap period 1250. In some cases, the one or more resource blocks (e.g., portion 1230) may further overlap with a remaining portion of the message after the occasion prior to the gap period 1250. The rate matching may be performed based on the one or more demodulation reference signal 1260 symbols being included in the occasion prior to the gap period 1250 that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols.

In some examples, the set of rules may indicate that the UE 115 is to rate match around part of the resource or occasion. For example, the UE 115 may rate match around the portion 1330 including the gap period 1350 and after the gap period 1350, if it does not include demodulation reference signal 1360. For example, the UE 115 may perform rate matching around one or more resource blocks (portion 1330) of the message in accordance with the set of rules and based on the occasion including the one or more resource blocks having a transmission direction that is same as at least one subband, or at least one guard band, or both, of the at least one full-duplex symbol of the set of full-duplex symbols or at least one or more resource blocks of the set of non-full-duplex symbols. In some examples, the message may be non-overlapping with one or more other subbands of the at least one full-duplex symbol, and the rate matching may be performed based on one or more demodulation reference signal symbols being included in the occasion prior to the gap period that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols.

In some examples, if the UE 115 or the network entity 105 cannot maintain phase continuity with the gap period 1450, in case of a downlink channel, the set of rules may indicate that the UE 115 is to bundle symbols within the part before the gap, and also bundles demodulation reference signal 1460 symbols within the part after the gap period 1450. In case of an uplink channel, the set of rules indicate that the network entity 105 is to bundle demodulation reference signal 1460 symbols within the part before the gap period 1450, and also the network entity 105 is to bundle demodulation reference signal 1460 symbols within the part after the gap period 1450. For instance, the UE 115 may bundle, in accordance with the set of rules, one or more demodulation reference signal symbols included in the occasion prior to the gap period that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols. The UE 115 may additionally bundle, in accordance with the set of rules, one or more demodulation reference signal symbols included in the occasion after the gap period that is between the set of non-full-duplex symbols and the set of full-duplex symbols.
In some examples, a nominal time for uplink demodulation reference signal bundling may restart at the symbol boundary, if the gap period 1450 which causes phase continuity not to be maintained across transmissions of physical uplink control channel repetition within the nominal time. In such cases, the UE 115 may not be able to keep phase coherency across the slot types. In some examples, the UE 115 may inform the network entity 105 that the filter change may cause phase discontinuity, so that the network entity 105 can bundle the two parts separately. In some examples, the UE 115 and the network entity 105 may bundle both parts (prior to and after the gap period 1450). The nominal time may not break or restart. In some examples, the UE 115 may inform the network entity 105 that filter change may not cause phase discontinuity.

By way of example, and not limitation, non-transitory computer-readable media may include RAM, ROM, electrically erasable programmable ROM (EEPROM), flash memory, phase change memory, compact disk (CD) ROM or other optical disk storage, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other non-transitory medium that may be used to carry or store desired program code means in the form of instructions or data structures and that may be accessed by a general-purpose or special-purpose computer, or a general-purpose or special-purpose processor. Also, any connection is properly termed a computer-readable medium. For example, if the software is transmitted from a website, server, or other remote source using a coaxial cable, fiber optic cable, twisted pair, digital subscriber line (DSL), or wireless technologies such as infrared, radio, and microwave, then the coaxial cable, fiber optic cable, twisted pair, DSL, or wireless technologies such as infrared, radio, and microwave are included in the definition of computer-readable medium. Disk and disc, as used herein, include CD, laser disc, optical disc, digital versatile disc (DVD), floppy disk and Blu-ray disc. Disks may reproduce data magnetically, and discs may reproduce data optically using lasers. Combinations of the above are also included within the scope of computer-readable media.
As used herein, including in the claims, “or” as used in a list of items (e.g., including a list of items prefaced by a phrase such as “at least one of” or “one or more of”) indicates an inclusive list such that, for example, a list of at least one of A, B, or C means A or B or C or AB or AC or BC or ABC (e.g., A and B and C). Also, as used herein, the phrase “based on” shall not be construed as a reference to a closed set of conditions. For example, an example step that is described as “based on condition A” may be based on both a condition A and a condition B without departing from the scope of the present disclosure. In other words, as used herein, the phrase “based on” shall be construed in the same manner as the phrase “based at least in part on.” As used herein, the term “and/or,” when used in a list of two or more items, means that any one of the listed items can be employed by itself, or any combination of two or more of the listed items can be employed. For example, if a composition is described as containing components A, B, and/or C, the composition can contain A alone; B alone; C alone; A and B in combination; A and C in combination; B and C in combination; or A, B, and C in combination.
The term “determine” or “determining” or “identify” or “identifying” encompasses a variety of actions and, therefore, “determining” or “identifying” can include calculating, computing, processing, deriving, investigating, looking up (such as via looking up in a table, a database or another data structure), ascertaining and the like. Also, “determining” or “identifying” can include receiving (such as receiving information or signaling, e.g., receiving information or signaling for determining, receiving information or signaling for identifying), accessing (such as accessing data in a memory, or accessing information) and the like. Also, “determining” or “identifying” can include resolving, obtaining, selecting, choosing, establishing and other such similar actions.
In the appended figures, similar components or features may have the same reference label. Further, various components of the same type may be distinguished by following the reference label by a dash and a second label that distinguishes among the similar components. If just the first reference label is used in the specification, the description is applicable to any one of the similar components having the same first reference label irrespective of the second reference label, or other subsequent reference label.
The description set forth herein, in connection with the appended drawings, describes example configurations and does not represent all the examples that may be implemented or that are within the scope of the claims. The term “example” used herein means “serving as an example, instance, or illustration,” and not “preferred” or “advantageous over other examples.” The detailed description includes specific details for the purpose of providing an understanding of the described techniques. These techniques, however, may be practiced without these specific details. In some instances, known structures and devices are shown in block diagram form in order to avoid obscuring the concepts of the described examples.
The description herein is provided to enable a person having ordinary skill in the art to make or use the disclosure. Various modifications to the disclosure will be apparent to a person having ordinary skill in the art, and the generic principles defined herein may be applied to other variations without departing from the scope of the disclosure. Thus, the disclosure is not limited to the examples and designs described herein but is to be accorded the broadest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
