AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing communication systems lack support for simultaneous uplink transmissions with more than 4 TX antenna ports, particularly in frequency ranges FR1 and FR2, leading to a gap in downlink and uplink spectral efficiency.

Method used

A method for reporting capability information that includes a list of UE capability value sets defining antenna arrangements and coherence information between transmission antenna ports, enabling simultaneous multi-panel uplink transmissions using multiple antenna panels with different capabilities.

Benefits of technology

Enables efficient simultaneous multi-panel uplink transmissions, reducing the gap in downlink and uplink spectral efficiency by supporting multiple antenna panels, thereby enhancing communication performance.

Abstract

Mechanisms are provided for reporting process information for simultaneous multi-panel uplink (UL) transmissions. According to the embodiment of the invention, the first device sends the first capability information to the second device. The first capability information includes a list of UE capability value sets. Each set of UE capability values in the list defines an antenna arrangement of the first device and is characterized by a first number of transmit antenna ports. And the first device sends the second capability information to the second device. The second capability information comprises a group of sets of UE capability values, wherein the group of sets of UE capability values defines a plurality of antenna arrangements of the first device; and coherent information in the phase domain between transmission antenna ports of the plurality of antenna arrangements or between the plurality of antenna arrangements. In this manner, simultaneous UL transmissions based on a multi-antenna panel codebook using different antenna panels with different capabilities are enabled.
