Description

[0001] Cross-reference to related applications

[0002] This patent application claims priority to U.S. Patent Application No. 18 / 471,082, filed September 20, 2023, entitled “PARAMETER SETS FOR USEREQUIPMENT COMMUNICATION MODES”, assigned to the assignee of this application. The disclosure of the earlier application is considered part of this patent application and is incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] All aspects of this disclosure relate to wireless communication in general, and to techniques and apparatus for a set of parameters for communication modes of user equipment. Background Technology

[0004] Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide a variety of telecommunications services, such as telephone, video, data, messaging, and broadcasting. Typical wireless communication systems employ multiple access technologies that enable communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources (e.g., bandwidth, transmit power, etc.). Examples of such multiple access technologies include Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) systems, Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) systems, Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) systems, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) systems, Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) systems, Time Division Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA) systems, and Long Term Evolution (LTE). LTE / LTE-Advanced is a collection of enhancements to the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) mobile standard issued by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).

[0005] A wireless network may include one or more network nodes that support communication for wireless communication devices, such as user equipment (UE) or multiple UEs. A UE may communicate with network nodes via downlink and uplink communication. A "downlink" (or "DL") refers to the communication link from the network node to the UE, and an "uplink" (or "UL") refers to the communication link from the UE to the network node. Some wireless networks may support device-to-device communication, such as via local links (e.g., sidelinks (SL), wireless local area network (WLAN) links, and / or wireless personal area network (WPAN) links, etc.).

[0006] The aforementioned multiple access technologies have been adopted in various telecommunications standards to provide a common protocol that enables different UEs to communicate at the city, country, region, and / or global levels. New Radio (NR) (which may be referred to as 5G) is a set of enhancements to the LTE mobile standard issued by 3GPP. NR is designed to better support mobile broadband internet access by: improving spectrum efficiency; reducing costs; improving service; utilizing new spectrum; and better integrating with other open standards by using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) with Cyclic Prefix (CP) on the downlink (CP-OFDM), and CP-OFDM and / or Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiplexing (SC-FDM) (also known as Discrete Fourier Transform Extended OFDM (DFT-s-OFDM)) on the uplink; and supporting beamforming, Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna technologies and carrier aggregation. Further improvements to LTE, NR, and other radio access technologies remain useful as the demand for mobile broadband access continues to increase. Summary of the Invention

[0041] Full-duplex (FD) communication in a wireless network refers to simultaneous bidirectional communication between devices in the wireless network. For example, a User Equipment (UE) operating in FD mode can simultaneously (e.g., in the same time slot or the same symbol) transmit uplink communication and receive downlink communication. Half-duplex (HD) communication in a wireless network refers to unidirectional communication between devices at a given time (e.g., in a given time slot or a given symbol) (e.g., downlink communication only or uplink communication only). Subband Full-Duplex (SBFD) is an FD mode in which devices (e.g., UEs) can simultaneously transmit and receive communication on different frequency resources.

[0042] In some cases, a UE capable of FD and / or SBFD can be configured to communicate with one or more network nodes, cells, and / or Transmitter-Receiver Points (TRPs) capable of SBFD to further enhance system capacity, UL coverage, and reduce latency. In other cases, an SBFD UE can communicate with two HD cells and / or TRPs (e.g., some cells with low capabilities can still be implemented in HD cell mode). In some cases, two or more communication modes can be implemented in different time periods. Time periods can be any time period, such as, for example, symbols or time slots. The ability to switch between communication modes can be useful to promote flexibility and efficiency in resource allocation and power consumption from the perspective of the UE and / or network nodes.

[0043] Some aspects of the techniques and apparatus described herein may include configuring different sets of parameters at the UE for different communication modes. For example, in some cases, the UE may be configured using two or more sets of parameter values ​​associated with two or more communication modes. For instance, a first set of parameter values ​​may be associated with a first communication mode, and a second set of parameter values ​​may be associated with a second communication mode. A set of parameter values ​​can be said to be associated with a communication mode if it can be used by the UE and / or network nodes to communicate according to that communication mode. In this way, some aspects may facilitate the UE switching between communication modes at different times, thereby enhancing the flexibility of configuring HD and / or FD communication between one or more UEs and one or more network nodes, thus allowing for improved network efficiency in resource allocation and / or improved device efficiency in terms of power consumption.

[0044] Various aspects of this disclosure are described more fully below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this disclosure may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to any particular structure or function presented throughout this disclosure. Rather, these aspects are provided to make this disclosure thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of this disclosure to those skilled in the art. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the scope of this disclosure is intended to cover any aspect of this disclosure disclosed herein, whether implemented independently or in combination with any other aspect of this disclosure.

[0046] This disclosure can be readily used as the basis for modifying or designing other structures for performing the same purposes as this disclosure. Such equivalent constructions do not depart from the scope of the appended claims. The characteristics of the concepts disclosed herein (both their organization and manner of operation) and their associated advantages are better understood in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, based on the following description. Each figure provided in the drawings is for illustrative and descriptive purposes and not as a limitation of the definitions in the claims.

[0047] While aspects are described herein by way of example, such aspects can be implemented in many different arrangements and scenarios. The techniques described herein can be implemented using different platform types, devices, systems, shapes, sizes, and / or package arrangements. For example, some aspects can be implemented via integrated chip implementations or other devices based on non-modular components (e.g., end-user equipment, vehicles, communication equipment, computing devices, industrial equipment, retail / shopping devices, medical devices, and / or artificial intelligence devices). Aspects can be implemented in chip-level components, modular components, non-modular components, non-chip-level components, device-level components, and / or system-level components.

The aspects described herein can be practiced in a wide variety of devices, components, systems, distributed arrangements, and / or end-user equipment of different sizes, shapes, and configurations.

[0048] Various devices and techniques will now be used to illustrate several aspects of a telecommunications system. These devices and techniques will be described in detail below and illustrated in the accompanying drawings by various blocks, modules, components, circuits, steps, processes, or algorithms (collectively, “elements”). These elements can be implemented using hardware, software, or a combination thereof. Whether such elements are implemented as hardware or software depends on the specific application and the design constraints imposed on the system as a whole.

[0049] Although terms generally associated with 5G or New Radio (NR) Radio Access Technology (RAT) may be used herein to describe aspects, aspects of this disclosure may be applied to other RATs, such as 3G RAT, 4G RAT and / or 5G and later (e.g., 6G) RATs.

[0050] Figure 1 This is a diagram illustrating an example of a wireless network 100 according to the present disclosure. The wireless network 100 may be a 5G (e.g., NR) network and / or a 4G (e.g., Long Term Evolution (LTE)) network, or may include elements of a 5G (e.g., NR) network and / or elements of a 4G (e.g., LTE) network, etc. The wireless network 100 may include one or more network nodes 110 (shown as network node 110a, network node 110b, network node 110c, and network node 110d), user equipment (UE) 120 or multiple UEs 120 (shown as UE 120a, UE 120b, UE 120c, UE 120d, and UE 120e), and / or other entities. Network node 110 is a network node that communicates with UE 120. As shown, network node 110 may include one or more network nodes. For example, network node 110 can be an aggregated network node, meaning that an aggregated network node is configured to utilize a radio protocol stack that is physically or logically integrated within a single radio access network (RAN) node (e.g., within a single device or unit). As another example, network node 110 can be a decomposed network node (sometimes referred to as a decomposed base station), meaning that network node 110 is configured to utilize a protocol stack that is physically or logically distributed among two or more nodes (such as one or more central units (CUs), one or more distributed units (DUs), or one or more radio units (RUs)).

[0051] In some examples, network node 110 is or includes network nodes (such as RUs) that communicate with UE 120 via a radio access link. In some examples, network node 110 is or includes network nodes (such as DUs) that communicate with other network nodes 110 via a fronthaul or midhaul link. In some examples, network node 110 is or includes network nodes (such as CUs) that communicate with other network nodes 110 via a midhaul link or with the core network via a backhaul link. In some examples, network node 110 (such as aggregated network node 110 or decomposed network node 110) may include multiple network nodes, such as one or more RUs, one or more CUs, and / or one or more DUs. Network node 110 may include, for example, NR base stations, LTE base stations, Node Bs, eNBs (e.g., in 4G), gNBs (e.g., in 5G), access points, Transmit / Receive Points (TRPs), DUs, RUs, CUs, network mobility elements, core network nodes, network elements, network equipment, RAN nodes, or combinations thereof. In some examples, network nodes 110 can interconnect with each other or with one or more other network nodes 110 in the wireless network 100 using any suitable transport network through various types of fronthaul interfaces, midhaul interfaces, and / or backhaul interfaces (such as direct physical connections, air interfaces, or virtual networks).

[0052] In some examples, network node 110 may provide communication coverage for a specific geographic area. In the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), depending on the context of terminology use, the term "cell" may refer to the coverage area of ​​network node 110 and / or the network node subsystem serving that coverage area. Network node 110 may provide communication coverage for macrocells, picocells, femtocells, and / or another type of cell. A macrocell may cover a relatively large geographic area (e.g., with a radius of several kilometers) and may allow unrestricted access by UE 120 with a service subscription. A picocell may cover a relatively small geographic area and may allow unrestricted access by UE 120 with a service subscription. A femtocell may cover a relatively small geographic area (e.g., a home) and may allow restricted access by UE 120 associated with the femtocell (e.g., UE 120 in a Closed Subscriber Group (CSG)). Network node 110 used for macrocells may be referred to as a macro network node. Network node 110 used for picocells may be referred to as a pico network node. The network node 110 used for femtocells can be referred to as a femtocell network node or a home network node. Figure 1In the example shown, network node 110a can be a macro network node for macro cell 102a, network node 110b can be a pico network node for pico cell 102b, and network node 110c can be a femto network node for femto cell 102c. Network nodes can support one or more (e.g., three) cells. In some examples, the cells may not necessarily be stationary, and the geographical area of ​​the cells may move depending on the location of the mobile network node 110 (e.g., a mobile network node).

[0053] In some aspects, the term "base station" or "network node" may refer to an aggregated base station, a decomposed base station, an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node, a relay node, or one or more components thereof. For example, in some aspects, "base station" or "network node" may refer to a CU, DU, RU, a near real-time (near RT) RAN intelligent controller (RIC), or a non-real-time (non-RT) RIC, or a combination thereof. In some aspects, the term "base station" or "network node" may refer to a device configured to perform one or more functions (such as those described herein in conjunction with network node 110). In some aspects, the term "base station" or "network node" may refer to multiple devices configured to perform one or more functions. For example, in some distributed systems, each of multiple different devices (which may be located in the same geographical location or different geographical locations) may be configured to perform at least a portion of a function, or to repeatedly perform at least a portion of that function, and the term "base station" or "network node" may refer to any one or more of these different devices. In some aspects, the term "base station" or "network node" may refer to one or more virtual base stations or one or more virtual base station functions. For example, in some aspects, two or more base station functions can be instantiated on a single device. In some aspects, the term "base station" or "network node" may refer to one base station function rather than another. In this way, a single device may include more than one base station.

[0054] Wireless network 100 may include one or more relay stations. A relay station is a network node that can receive data transmissions from upstream nodes (e.g., network node 110 or UE 120) and transmit data to downstream nodes (e.g., UE 120 or network node 110). A relay station may be a UE 120 that can relay transmissions for other UE 120s. Figure 1 In the example shown, network node 110d (e.g., a relay network node) can communicate with network node 110a (e.g., a macro network node) and UE 120d to facilitate communication between network node 110a and UE 120d. The network node 110 for relay communication may be referred to as a relay station, relay base station, relay network node, relay node, repeater, etc.

[0055] Wireless network 100 can be a heterogeneous network, comprising different types of network nodes 110, such as macro network nodes, pico network nodes, femto network nodes, relay network nodes, etc. These different types of network nodes 110 may have different transmit power levels, different coverage areas, and / or different effects on interference in wireless network 100. For example, macro network nodes may have high transmit power levels (e.g., 5 watts to 40 watts), while pico network nodes, femto network nodes, and relay network nodes may have lower transmit power levels (e.g., 0.1 watts to 2 watts).

[0056] Network controller 130 may be coupled to or communicate with network node set 110, and may provide coordination and control for these network nodes 110. Network controller 130 may communicate with network nodes 110 via a backhaul or midhaul link. Network nodes 110 may also communicate directly with each other, or indirectly via a wireless or wired backhaul link. In some aspects, network controller 130 may be a CU or core network device, or may include a CU or core network device.

[0057] UE 120 may be distributed throughout the wireless network 100, and each UE 120 may be stationary or mobile. UE 120 may include, for example, access terminals, terminals, mobile stations, and / or subscriber units. UE 120 may be a cellular phone (e.g., a smartphone), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a wireless modem, a wireless communication device, a handheld device, a laptop computer, a cordless phone, a wireless local loop (WLL) station, a tablet computer, a camera, a gaming device, a netbook, a smartbook, an ultrabook, a medical device, a biometric device, a wearable device (e.g., a smartwatch, smart clothing, smart glasses, a smart wristband, smart jewelry (e.g., a smart ring or smart bracelet)), an entertainment device (e.g., a music device, a video device, and / or a satellite radio), a vehicle component or sensor, a smart meter / sensor, industrial manufacturing equipment, a GPS device, a UE function of a network node, and / or any other suitable device configured to communicate via wireless or wired media.

[0058] Some UEs 120 may be considered Machine-Type Communication (MTC) or Evolved or Enhanced Machine-Type Communication (eMTC) UEs. MTC UEs and / or eMTC UEs may include, for example, robots, unmanned aerial vehicles, remote devices, sensors, instruments, monitors, and / or location tags that can communicate with network nodes, another device (e.g., a remote device), or some other entity. Some UEs 120 may be considered Internet of Things (IoT) devices and / or may be implemented as NB-IoT (Narrowband IoT) devices. Some UEs 120 may be considered customer premises equipment. UEs 120 may be contained within a housing that houses components of the UE 120, such as processor components and / or memory components. In some examples, the processor components and memory components may be coupled together. For example, the processor components (e.g., one or more processors) and memory components (e.g., memory) may be operatively coupled, communicatively coupled, electronically coupled, and / or electrically coupled.

[0059] Generally, any number of wireless networks 100 can be deployed in a given geographical area. Each wireless network 100 can support a specific RAT and can operate on one or more frequencies. A RAT may be referred to as a radio technology, air interface, etc. A frequency may be referred to as a carrier, frequency channel, etc. Each frequency in a given geographical area can support a single RAT to avoid interference between wireless networks using different RATs. In some cases, NR or 5G RAT networks can be deployed.

[0060] In some examples, two or more UEs 120 (e.g., shown as UE 120a and UE 120e) may communicate directly using one or more sidelink channels (e.g., without using network node 110 as an intermediary device to communicate with each other). For example, UE 120 may communicate using peer-to-peer (P2P) communication, device-to-device (D2D) communication, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) protocols (e.g., which may include vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) protocols, vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) protocols, or vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) protocols) and / or mesh networks. In such examples, UE 120 may perform scheduling operations, resource selection operations, and / or other operations described elsewhere herein as being performed by network node 110.

[0061] Devices in Wireless Network 100 can communicate using the electromagnetic spectrum, which can be subdivided into various categories, bands, channels, etc., based on frequency or wavelength. For example, devices in Wireless Network 100 can communicate using one or more operating frequency bands. In 5G NR, two initial operating frequency bands have been designated as frequency ranges FR1 (410MHz to 7.125GHz) and FR2 (24.25GHz to 52.6GHz). It should be understood that although a portion of FR1 is greater than 6GHz, FR1 is often (interchangeably) referred to as the “sub-6GHz” band in various documents and articles. Similar naming issues sometimes occur with FR2, which is often (interchangeably) referred to as the “millimeter wave” band in documents and articles, although this is different from the Extremely High Frequency (EHF) band (30GHz to 300GHz) designated as a “millimeter wave” band by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU).

[0062] The frequencies between FR1 and FR2 are generally referred to as mid-band frequencies. Recent 5G NR studies have identified the operating bands used for these mid-band frequencies as the frequency range designation FR3 (7.125 GHz to 24.25 GHz). Bands falling within FR3 can inherit FR1 and / or FR2 characteristics, thus effectively extending the features of FR1 and / or FR2 to mid-band frequencies. Furthermore, higher frequency bands are currently being explored to extend 5G NR operation beyond 52.6 GHz. For example, three higher operating bands have been identified as the frequency range designations FR4a or FR4-1 (52.6 GHz to 71 GHz), FR4 (52.6 GHz to 114.25 GHz), and FR5 (114.25 GHz to 300 GHz). Each of these higher frequency bands falls within the EHF band.

[0063] Considering the examples above, unless otherwise specifically stated, it should be understood that if the term "below 6 GHz" is used herein, it can broadly refer to frequencies below 6 GHz, within FR1, or including intermediate frequency bands. Furthermore, unless otherwise specifically stated, it should be understood that if the term "millimeter wave" is used herein, it can broadly refer to frequencies that can include intermediate frequency bands, within FR2, FR4, FR4-a, or FR4-1 and / or FR5, or within the EHF band. Modifications to frequencies included in these operating frequency bands (e.g., FR1, FR2, FR3, FR4, FR4-a, FR4-1, and / or FR5) are contemplated, and the techniques described herein are applicable to those modified frequency ranges.

[0064] In some aspects, the UE (e.g., UE 120) may include a communication manager 140. As described in more detail elsewhere herein, the communication manager 140 may send capability information associated with two or more communication modes, including at least one FD mode, to a network node; receive configuration information associated with the two or more communication modes from the network node, the configuration information indicating at least two sets of parameter values, each set of parameter values ​​being associated with a corresponding communication mode among the two or more communication modes; and communicate with the network node at least in part based on the at least two sets of parameter values.

[0065] In some aspects, the communication manager 140 may receive configuration information from a network node associated with two or more communication modes, including at least one FD mode; communicate with the network node in a first communication mode associated with the two or more communication modes; and communicate with the network node in a second communication mode associated with the two or more communication modes in association with a mode transition condition, wherein the mode transition condition is associated with the maximum number of transition points during a specified time period. Additionally or alternatively, the communication manager 140 may perform one or more other operations described herein.

[0066] In some aspects, a network node (e.g., network node 110) may include a communication manager 150. As described in more detail elsewhere herein, the communication manager 150 may receive capability information from the UE associated with two or more communication modes, including at least one FD mode; send configuration information to the UE associated with the two or more communication modes, the configuration information indicating at least two sets of parameter values, each set of parameter values ​​being associated with a corresponding communication mode among the two or more communication modes; and communicate with the UE at least in part based on the at least two sets of parameter values.

[0067] In some aspects, the communication manager 150 may send configuration information to the UE associated with two or more communication modes, including at least one FD mode; communicate with the UE in a first communication mode associated with the two or more communication modes; and communicate with the UE in a second communication mode associated with the two or more communication modes in association with a mode transition condition, wherein the mode transition condition is associated with the maximum number of transition points during a specified time period. Additionally or alternatively, the communication manager 150 may perform one or more other operations described herein.

[0068] As indicated above, Figure 1 This is provided as an example. Other examples are available with reference to [the relevant information]. Figure 1The examples described are different.

[0069] Figure 2 This is a diagram illustrating example 200 of communication between network node 110 and UE 120 in a wireless network 100 according to this disclosure. Network node 110 may be equipped with antenna sets 234a to 234t, such as... T One antenna ( T ≥1). UE 120 may be equipped with antenna sets 252a to 252r, such as R One antenna ( R ≥1). Network node 110 of Example 200 includes one or more radio frequency components, such as antenna 234 and modem 232. In some examples, network node 110 may include an interface, communication components, or another component that facilitates communication with UE 120 or another network node. Some network node 110 may not include radio frequency components that facilitate direct communication with UE 120, such as one or more CUs or one or more DUs.

[0070] At network node 110, transmitting processor 220 may receive data from data source 212 intended for use by UE 120 (or a set of UEs 120). Transmitting processor 220 may select one or more modulation and decoding schemes (MCS) for UE 120 based at least in part on one or more channel quality indicators (CQIs) received from UE 120. Network node 110 may process (e.g., encode and modulate) the data for UE 120 based at least in part on the MCS selected for UE 120 and may provide data symbols for UE 120. Transmitting processor 220 may process system information (e.g., semi-static resource partitioning information (SRPI)) and control information (e.g., CQI requests, grants, and / or upper-layer signaling) and provide overhead symbols and control symbols. Transmitting processor 220 may generate reference symbols for reference signals (e.g., cell-specific reference signals (CRS) or demodulation reference signals (DMRS)) and synchronization signals (e.g., primary synchronization signal (PSS) or secondary synchronization signal (SSS)). The transmit (TX) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) processor 230 can perform spatial processing (e.g., pre-decoding) on ​​data symbols, control symbols, overhead symbols, and / or reference symbols where applicable, and can transmit a set of output symbol streams (e.g., T Each output symbol stream is provided to a corresponding set of modems 232 (e.g., ...). TEach modem 232a to 232t can be used to process a corresponding output symbol stream (e.g., for OFDM) to obtain an output sample stream. For example, each output symbol stream can be provided to a modulator component (MOD) of modem 232. Each modem 232 can use a corresponding modulator component to process the corresponding output symbol stream (e.g., for OFDM) to obtain an output sample stream. Each modem 232 can also use a corresponding modulator component to process the output sample stream (e.g., convert to analog, amplify, filter, and / or up-convert) to obtain a downlink signal. Modems 232a to 232t can be connected via a corresponding set of antennas 234 (e.g., T Each antenna (shown as antennas 234a to 234t) is used to transmit a set of downlink signals (e.g., ...). T (One downlink signal).

[0071] At UE 120, a set of antennas 252 (shown as antennas 252a to 252r) can receive downlink signals from network node 110 and / or other network nodes 110 and can transmit a set of received signals (e.g., R The received signals are provided to a group of modems 254 (e.g., R Each modem 254 (shown as modems 254a to 254r) may receive a signal. For example, each received signal may be provided to a demodulator component (shown as DEMOD) of modem 254. Each modem 254 may use a corresponding demodulator component to condition (e.g., filter, amplify, down-convert, and / or digitize) the received signal to obtain an input sample. Each modem 254 may use a demodulator component to further process the input sample (e.g., for OFDM) to obtain a received symbol. MIMO detector 256 may obtain the received symbols from modem 254, perform MIMO detection on the received symbols where applicable, and provide the detected symbols. Receiver processor 258 may process (e.g., demodulate and decode) the detected symbols, provide the decoded data for UE 120 to data sink 260, and provide the decoded control information and system information to controller / processor 280. The term "controller / processor" may refer to one or more controllers, one or more processors, or a combination thereof. The channel processor can determine parameters such as the Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ), and / or CQI. In some examples, one or more components of the UE 120 may be included in the housing 284.

[0072] Network controller 130 may include communication unit 294, controller / processor 290, and memory 292. Network controller 130 may include one or more devices, for example, in a core network. Network controller 130 may communicate with network node 110 via communication unit 294.

[0073] One or more antennas (e.g., antennas 234a to 234t and / or antennas 252a to 252r) may include one or more antenna panels, one or more antenna groups, one or more sets of antenna elements and / or one or more antenna arrays, etc., or may be included within one or more antenna panels, one or more antenna groups, one or more sets of antenna elements and / or one or more antenna arrays, etc. Antenna panels, antenna groups, sets of antenna elements and / or antenna arrays may include one or more antenna elements (within a single housing or multiple housings), a set of coplanar antenna elements, a set of non-coplanar antenna elements and / or coupled to one or more transmitting and / or receiving components (such as...). Figure 2 One or more antenna elements (one or more components in a )

[0074] Each antenna element may include one or more sub-elements for radiating or receiving radio frequency signals. For example, a single antenna element may include a first sub-element that is cross-polarized with a second sub-element, which can be used to independently transmit cross-polarized signals. Antenna elements may include patch antennas, dipole antennas, or other types of antennas arranged in a linear pattern, a two-dimensional pattern, or another pattern. The spacing between antenna elements allows signals transmitted individually by the antenna elements at desired wavelengths to interact or interfere with each other (e.g., to form a desired beam). For example, given a desired wavelength or frequency range, the spacing may provide a quarter wavelength, half wavelength, or other fraction of the wavelength between adjacent antenna elements to allow interaction or interference of signals transmitted by individual antenna elements within that desired range.

[0075] Antenna elements and / or sub-elements can be used to generate a beam. A “beam” can specify a wireless signal to be transmitted, such as in the direction of a receiving device. A beam may include a directional signal, a direction associated with the signal, a set of directional resources associated with the signal (e.g., angle of arrival, horizontal direction, vertical direction), and / or a set of parameters indicating one or more aspects of the directional signal, the direction associated with the signal, and / or the set of directional resources associated with the signal.

[0076] As indicated above, antenna elements and / or sub-elements can be used to generate beams. For example, antenna elements can be individually selected or deselected for the transmission of signals (or multiple signals) by controlling the amplitude of one or more corresponding amplifiers. Beamforming involves generating a beam using multiple signals on different antenna elements, wherein one or more or all of these signals are phase-shifted relative to each other. The formed beam can carry physical or higher-level reference signals or information. As each of the multiple signals is radiated from its respective antenna element, the radiated signals interact with, interfere with (constructive and destructive interference), and are amplified to form the resulting beam. The shape (such as amplitude, width, and / or the presence of sidelobes) and orientation (such as the angle of the beam relative to the surface of the antenna array) can be dynamically controlled by modifying the phase shifts or phase offsets of the multiple signals relative to each other.

[0077] Beamforming can be used for communication between a UE and a network node, such as for millimeter-wave communication. In this case, the network node can provide the UE with a Transmit Configuration Indicator (TCI) state configuration, which indicates the beam that the UE can use, for example, to receive the Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH). The TCI state indicates the spatial parameters used for communication. For example, the TCI state for communication can identify the source signal (such as a synchronization signal block, channel state information reference signal, etc.) and the spatial parameters to be derived from the source signal for the purpose of transmitting or receiving communication. For example, the TCI state can indicate the Quasi-Co-location (QCL) type. The QCL type can indicate one or more spatial parameters to be derived from the source signal. The source signal can be referred to as the QCL source. The network node can indicate the active TCI state to the UE, which the UE can use to select the beam for receiving the PDSCH.

[0078] Beam indication can be or includes TCI status information elements, beam identifier (ID), spatial relationship information, TCI status ID, closed-loop index, panel ID, TRP ID, and / or sounding reference signal (SRS) set ID, etc. TCI status information elements (referred to herein as TCI status) can indicate information associated with the beam, such as a downlink beam. For example, a TCI status information element can indicate a TCI status identifier (e.g., tci-StateID ), QCL type (e.g., qcl-Type1 , qcl-Type2 , qcl-TypeA , qcl-TypeB , qcl-TypeC , qcl-TypeD etc.), community signage (e.g., ServCellIndex ), bandwidth identifier ( bwp-Id ), reference signal identifiers (such as CSI-RS (e.g., NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceId , SSB-Index Spatial relationship information can similarly indicate information associated with the uplink beam.

[0079] Beam indication can be a combined or separate downlink (DL) / uplink (UL) beam indication within a unified TCI framework. In some cases, the network may use at least UE-specific (unicast) downlink control information (DCI) to indicate a combined or separate DL / UL beam indication from an active TCI state, thereby supporting Layer 1 (L1) based beam indication. In some cases, existing DCI formats 1_1 and / or 1_2 may be reused for beam indication. The network may include support mechanisms for UE confirmation of successful decoding of the beam indication. For example, acknowledgment / negation acknowledgment (ACK / NACK) of a PDSCH scheduled via a DCI carrying the beam indication may also be used as an ACK for the DCI.

[0080] Beam indication can be provided for carrier aggregation (CA) scenarios. Within a unified TCI framework, the network can support public TCI state ID updates and activations to provide public QCL information and / or one or more public UL transmit spatial filters across a set of configured component carriers (CCs). This type of beam indication can be applied to in-band CA as well as joint DL / UL beam indication and individual DL / UL beam indication. The public TCI state ID can refer to a reference signal (RS) determined based on the TCI state indicated by the public TCI state ID, used to provide QCL type D indication and to determine the UL transmit spatial filters across that set of configured CCs.

[0081] On the uplink, at UE 120, the transmit processor 264 can receive and process data from data source 262 and control information from controller / processor 280 (e.g., for reporting including RSRP, RSSI, RSRQ, and / or CQI). The transmit processor 264 can generate reference symbols for one or more reference signals. The symbols from the transmit processor 264 can be pre-decoded by the TX MIMO processor 266 where applicable, further processed by the modem 254 (e.g., for DFT-s-OFDM or CP-OFDM), and transmitted to network node 110. In some examples, the modem 254 of UE 120 may include a modulator and demodulator. In some examples, UE 120 includes a transceiver. The transceiver may include any combination of antenna 252, modem 254, MIMO detector 256, receive processor 258, transmit processor 264, and / or TX MIMO processor 266. The transceiver may be used by a processor (e.g., controller / processor 280) and memory 282 to execute this document (e.g., reference). Figures 8 to 14 ( ) any aspect of the methods described in the method.

[0082] At network node 110, uplink signals from UE 120 and / or other UEs may be received by antenna 234, processed by modem 232 (e.g., demodulator component of modem 232 (shown as DEMOD)), detected by MIMO detector 236, and further processed by receiver processor 238 to obtain decoded data and control information transmitted by UE 120. Receiver processor 238 may provide the decoded data to data sink 239 and the decoded control information to controller / processor 240. Network node 110 may include communication unit 244 and may communicate with network controller 130 via communication unit 244. Network node 110 may include scheduler 246 to schedule one or more UEs 120 for downlink and / or uplink communication. In some examples, modem 232 of network node 110 may include modulator and demodulator. In some examples, network node 110 includes transceiver. The transceiver may include any combination of antenna 234, modem 232, MIMO detector 236, receive processor 238, transmit processor 220, and / or TX MIMO processor 230. The transceiver may be used by a processor (e.g., controller / processor 240) and memory 242 to execute this document (e.g., reference). Figures 8 to 14 ( ) any aspect of the methods described in the method.

[0083] The controller / processor 240 of network node 110, the controller / processor 280 of UE 120 and / or Figure 2 Any other component may execute one or more techniques associated with the parameter set used for the UE communication mode, as described in more detail elsewhere herein. For example, the controller / processor 240 of network node 110, the controller / processor 280 of UE 120, and / or Figure 2 Any other component that can execute or direct, for example Figure 9 The process 900 Figure 10 Process 1000 Figure 11 Process 1100 Figure 12The operation of process 1200 and / or other processes as described herein. Memory 242 and memory 282 may store data and program code for network node 110 and UE 120, respectively. In some examples, memory 242 and / or memory 282 may include a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing one or more instructions (e.g., code and / or program code) for wireless communication. For example, when executed by one or more processors of network node 110 and / or UE 120 (e.g., directly executed, or executed after compilation, transformation, and / or interpretation), these one or more instructions may cause the one or more processors, UE 120, and / or network node 110 to perform or direct, for example... Figure 9 The process 900 Figure 10 Process 1000 Figure 11 Process 1100 Figure 12 The operation of process 1200 and / or other processes as described herein. In some examples, the execution instructions may include run instructions, transform instructions, compile instructions and / or interpret instructions, etc.

[0084] In some aspects, the UE (e.g., UE 120) includes: means for transmitting capability information associated with two or more communication modes among a plurality of communication modes to a network node, the two or more communication modes including at least one FD mode; means for receiving configuration information associated with the two or more communication modes from the network node, the configuration information indicating at least two sets of parameter values, wherein each set of parameter values ​​is associated with a corresponding communication mode among the two or more communication modes; and / or means for communicating with the network node by the UE at least in part based on the at least two sets of parameter values.

[0085] In some aspects, the UE includes: components for receiving configuration information associated with two or more communication modes from a network node, including at least one FD mode; components for communicating with the network node in a first communication mode associated with the two or more communication modes; and / or components for communicating with the network node in a second communication mode associated with the two or more communication modes, in association with a mode transition condition, wherein the mode transition condition is associated with a maximum number of transition points during a specified time period. Components for the UE to perform the operations described herein may include, for example, one or more of the following: a communication manager 140, an antenna 252, a modem 254, a MIMO detector 256, a receive processor 258, a transmit processor 264, a TX MIMO processor 266, a controller / processor 280, or a memory 282.

[0086] In some aspects, the network node includes: components for receiving capability information associated with two or more communication modes from the UE, including at least one FD mode; components for transmitting configuration information associated with the two or more communication modes to the UE, the configuration information indicating at least two sets of parameter values, each set of parameter values ​​being associated with a corresponding communication mode among the two or more communication modes; and / or components for communicating with the UE by the network node at least in part based on the at least two sets of parameter values. Components for the network node to perform the operations described herein may include, for example, one or more of the following: a communication manager 150, a transmit processor 220, a TX MIMO processor 230, a modem 232, an antenna 234, a MIMO detector 236, a receive processor 238, a controller / processor 240, a memory 242, or a scheduler 246.

[0087] In some aspects, the network node includes: components for transmitting configuration information associated with two or more communication modes among a plurality of communication modes, including at least one FD mode, to the UE; components for communicating with the UE in a first communication mode among the two or more communication modes; and / or components for communicating with the UE in a second communication mode among the two or more communication modes, associated with a mode transition condition, wherein the mode transition condition is associated with a maximum number of transition points during a specified time period. Components for the network node to perform the operations described herein may include, for example, one or more of the following: a communication manager 150, a transmit processor 220, a TX MIMO processor 230, a modem 232, an antenna 234, a MIMO detector 236, a receive processor 238, a controller / processor 240, a memory 242, or a scheduler 246.

[0088] In some respects, individual processors can be described as performing all functions executed by the one or more processors. In other respects, the one or more processors can jointly perform a set of functions. For example, the processors of a first set (one or more) of the one or more processors can be described as performing a first function executed by the one or more processors, and the processors of a second set (one or more) of the one or more processors can be described as performing a second function executed by the one or more processors. The processors of the first set and the processors of the second set can be the same set of processors or can be different sets of processors. The reference to "one or more processors" should be understood as referring to a combination of processors. Figure 2Any one or more processors described. The reference to "one or more memories" should be understood to refer to any one or more memories of the corresponding device, such as those in conjunction with... Figure 2 The memory described. For example, a function described as being performed by one or more memories can be performed by the same subset of the one or more memories or by different subsets of the one or more memories.

[0089] Although Figure 2 The boxes in the diagram are illustrated as different components, but the functions described above with respect to these boxes may be implemented in a single hardware, software, or combined component, or in various combinations of components. For example, the functions described with respect to transmit processor 264, receive processor 258, and / or TX MIMO processor 266 may be performed by or under the control of controller / processor 280.

[0090] As indicated above, Figure 2 This is provided as an example. Other examples are available with reference to [the relevant information]. Figure 2 The examples described are different.

[0091] The deployment of communication systems such as 5G NR systems can be arranged in a variety of ways using various components or parts. In a 5G NR system or network, network nodes, network entities, network mobility elements, RAN nodes, core network nodes, network elements, base stations, or network equipment can be implemented in either a converged or decomposed architecture. For example, a base station (such as a Node B (NB), evolved NB (eNB), NR base station, 5G NB, access point (AP), TRP, or cell, etc.) or one or more units (or components) performing base station functionality can be implemented as a converged base station (also known as a standalone base station or monolithic base station) or a decomposed base station. A "network entity" or "network node" can refer to a decomposed base station or one or more units of a decomposed base station (such as one or more CUs, one or more DUs, one or more RUs, or combinations thereof).

[0092] Aggregated base stations (e.g., aggregated network nodes) can be configured to utilize a radio protocol stack that is physically or logically integrated within a single RAN node (e.g., within a single device or cell). Decomposed base stations (e.g., decomposed network nodes) can be configured to utilize a protocol stack that is physically or logically distributed across two or more cells (such as one or more CUs, one or more DUs, or one or more RUs). In some examples, the CU may be implemented within a network node, and one or more DUs may be co-located with the CU, or alternatively, may be geographically or virtually distributed across one or more other network nodes. DUs may be implemented to communicate with one or more RUs. Each of the CU, DU, and RU can also be implemented as a virtual cell, such as a Virtual Central Unit (VCU), a Virtual Distributed Unit (VDU), or a Virtual Radio Unit (VRU), etc.

[0093] Base station type operation or network design can take into account the aggregation characteristics of base station functionality. For example, decomposed base stations can be utilized in IAB networks, Open Radio Access Networks (O-RAN (such as network configurations initiated by the O-RAN Alliance)), or Virtualized Radio Access Networks (vRAN, also known as Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RAN)) to facilitate the scaling of communication systems by separating base station functionality into one or more units that can be deployed independently. Decomposed base stations can include functionality implemented across two or more units at various physical locations, as well as functionality virtually implemented for at least one unit, which enables flexibility in network design. Each unit of a decomposed base station can be configured for wired or wireless communication with at least one other unit of the decomposed base station.

[0094] Figure 3 This is an illustration of an example disaggregated base station architecture 300 according to this disclosure. The disaggregated base station architecture 300 may include a CU 310, which may communicate directly with the core network 320 via a backhaul link, or indirectly with the core network 320 via one or more disaggregated control units (such as near-RT RIC 325 via an E2 link, or a non-RT RIC 315 associated with a Service Management and Orchestration (SMO) framework 305, or both). The CU 310 may communicate with one or more DUs 330 via a corresponding midhaul link (such as via an F1 interface). Each DU 330 may communicate with one or more RUs 340 via a corresponding fronthaul link. Each RU 340 may communicate with one or more UEs 120 via a corresponding radio frequency (RF) access link. In some implementations, a UE 120 may be served simultaneously by multiple RUs 340.

[0095] Each of these units (including CU 310, DU 330, RU 340) and the near-RT RIC 325, non-RT RIC 315, and SMO frame 305 may include or be coupled to one or more interfaces configured to receive or transmit signals, data, or information (collectively, signals) via wired or wireless transmission media. Each of these units, or an associated processor or controller providing instructions to one or more communication interfaces of the respective unit, may be configured to communicate with one or more units in other units via transmission media. In some examples, each unit may include a wired interface and a wireless interface configured to receive signals via a wired transmission media or transmit signals to one or more units in other units, and the wireless interface may include a receiver, transmitter, or transceiver (such as an RF transceiver) configured to receive signals via a wireless transmission media or transmit signals to one or more units in other units, or both.

[0096] In some aspects, the CU 310 can host one or more higher-level control functions. Such control functions may include Radio Resource Control (RRC) functions, Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) functions, or Service Data Adaptation Protocol (SDAP) functions, etc. Each control function can be implemented using an interface configured to signal to other control functions hosted by the CU 310. The CU 310 can be configured to handle user plane functions (e.g., Central Unit-User Plane (CU-UP) functions), control plane functions (e.g., Central Unit-Control Plane (CU-CP) functions), or combinations thereof. In some implementations, the CU 310 can be logically divided into one or more CU-UP units and one or more CU-CP units. When implemented in an O-RAN configuration, the CU-UP units can communicate bidirectionally with the CU-CP units via an interface such as an E1 interface. The CU 310 can be implemented to communicate with the DU 330 for network control and signaling purposes, as needed.

[0097] Each DU 330 may correspond to a logical unit comprising one or more base station functions for controlling the operation of one or more RU 340s. In some aspects, the DU 330 may host one or more of the Radio Link Control (RLC) layer, Medium Access Control (MAC) layer, and one or more high physical (PHY) layers, at least in part, according to functional splits (such as those defined by 3GPP). In some aspects, the one or more high PHY layers may be implemented by one or more modules for forward error correction (FEC) encoding and decoding, scrambling, and modulation and demodulation, etc. In some aspects, the DU 330 may also host one or more low PHY layers, such as those implemented by one or more modules for Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), Inverse FFT (iFFT), Digital Beamforming, or Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) extraction and filtering, etc. Each layer (which may also be referred to as a module) may be implemented using an interface configured to communicate signals with other layers (and modules) hosted by the DU 330 or with control functions hosted by the CU 310.

[0098] Each RU 340 can implement lower-layer functionality. In some deployments, the RU 340 controlled by the DU 330 can correspond to a logical node that hosts RF processing functions or low-PHY layer functions, such as performing FFT, performing iFFT, digital beamforming, or PRACH extraction and filtering, based on function splitting (e.g., function splitting defined by 3GPP) (such as lower-layer function splitting). In this architecture, each RU 340 can be operated to handle over-the-air (OTA) communication with one or more UE 120s. In some specific implementations, the real-time and non-real-time aspects of communication with the control plane and user plane of the RU 340 can be controlled by the corresponding DU 330. In some scenarios, this configuration allows each DU 330 and CU 310 to be implemented in a cloud-based RAN architecture, such as a vRAN architecture.

[0099] The SMO framework 305 can be configured to support RAN deployment and provisioning of both non-virtualized and virtualized network elements. For non-virtualized network elements, the SMO framework 305 can be configured to support the deployment of dedicated physical resources for RAN coverage requirements, which can be managed via operation and maintenance interfaces such as the O1 interface. For virtualized network elements, the SMO framework 305 can be configured to interact with cloud computing platforms such as the Open Cloud (O-Cloud) platform 390 to perform network element lifecycle management (such as instantiating virtualized network elements) via cloud computing platform interfaces such as the O2 interface. Such virtualized network elements may include, but are not limited to, CU 310, DU 330, RU 340, non-RT RIC 315, and near-RTTRIC 325. In some specific implementations, the SMO framework 305 may communicate with 4G RAN hardware aspects such as the Open eNB (O-eNB) 311 via the O1 interface. Additionally, in some implementations, the SMO framework 305 can communicate directly with each of one or more RUs 340 via a corresponding O1 interface. The SMO framework 305 may also include a non-RT RIC 315 configured to support the functionality of the SMO framework 305.

[0100] The non-RT RIC 315 can be configured to include logical functions that enable non-real-time control and optimization of RAN elements and resources, including AI / ML workflows for model training and updates, or policy-based guidance for applications / features in the near-RT RIC 325. The non-RT RIC 315 can be coupled to or communicate with the near-RT RIC 325, such as via an A1 interface. The near-RT RIC 325 can be configured to include logical functions that enable near real-time control and optimization of RAN elements and resources via an interface, such as an E2 interface, through data collection and actions, connecting one or more CU 310s, one or more DU 330s, or both, and O-eNBs to the near-RT RIC 325.

[0101] In some implementations, to generate AI / ML models to be deployed in the near-RT RIC 325, the non-RT RIC 315 may receive parameters or external enrichment information from an external server. This information can be utilized by the near-RT RIC 325 and can be received from non-network data sources or network functions at the SMO framework 305 or the non-RT RIC 315. In some examples, the non-RT RIC 315 or near-RT RIC 325 may be configured to tune RAN behavior or performance. For example, the non-RT RIC 315 may monitor long-term trends and patterns in performance and employ AI / ML models to perform corrective actions via the SMO framework 305 (such as reconfiguration via the O1 interface) or via the creation of RAN management policies (such as A1 interface policies).

[0102] As indicated above, Figure 3 This is provided as an example. Other examples are available with reference to [the relevant information]. Figure 3 The examples described are different.

[0103] Figures 4A to 4C These are illustrations of examples 400, 410, and 420 of FD communication according to this disclosure. Figure 4A Example 400 includes UE1 402 and two network nodes (e.g., Transmit / Receive Points (TRPs)) 404-1 and 404-2, where UE1 402 is transmitting UL transmissions to network node 404-1 and receiving DL transmissions from network node 404-2. Figure 4A In Example 400, FD is enabled for UE1 402 but not for network nodes 404-1 and 404-2. Figure 4B Example 410 includes two UEs (shown as UE1 402-1 and UE2 402-2) and a network node 404, where UE1 402-1 is receiving DL transmissions from network node 404, and UE2 402-2 is sending UL transmissions to network node 404. Figure 4B In Example 410, FD is enabled for network node 404 but not for UE1 402-1 and UE2 402-2. Figure 4C Example 420 includes UE1 402 and network node 404, where UE1 402 is receiving DL transmissions from network node 404, and UE1 402 is sending UL transmissions to network node 404. Figure 4C In Example 420, FD is enabled for both UE1 402 and network node 404.

[0104] As indicated above, Figures 4A to 4C This is provided as one or more examples. Other examples may be provided in conjunction with... Figures 4A to 4C The examples described are different.

[0105] Figure 5 These are illustrations of examples 500, 505, and 510 of FD communication in a wireless network according to this disclosure. For example... Figure 5 As shown, Examples 500 and 505 illustrate examples of in-band full-duplex (IBFD) communication (which may also be referred to herein as “full-duplex” (FD) communication). In FD, the UE can send uplink communication to and receive downlink communication from the network node on the same time and frequency resources. As shown in Example 500, in a first example of FD (referred to as “fully overlapping FD”), the time and frequency resources used for uplink communication can fully overlap with those used for downlink communication. As shown in Example 505, in a second example of FD (referred to as “partially overlapping FD”), the time and frequency resources used for uplink communication can partially overlap with those used for downlink communication.

[0106] like Figure 5 As further illustrated, Example 510 shows an example of SBFD communication, which can also be referred to as "Subband Frequency Division Duplex (SBFDD)" or "Flexible Duplex." In SBFD, a UE can send uplink communication to a network node and receive downlink communication from a network node on the same time resources but on different frequency resources. For example, different frequency resources can be subbands of a band such as a Time Division Duplex (TDD) band. In this case, the frequency resources used for downlink communication can be separated from the frequency resources used for uplink communication in the frequency domain by guard bands.

[0107] As indicated above, Figure 5 This is provided as an example. Other examples are available with reference to [the relevant information]. Figure 5 The examples described are different.

[0108] Figure 6 This is a diagram illustrating example 600 activated according to the SBFD of this disclosure. For example... Figure 6As shown, Example 600 includes a first configuration 602. In some aspects, the first configuration 602 may indicate a first timeslot format pattern (sometimes referred to as a TDD mode) associated with half-duplex mode or FD mode. The first timeslot format pattern may include a number of downlink timeslots (e.g., three downlink timeslots 604a, 604b, and 604c as shown), a number of flexible timeslots (not shown), and / or a number of uplink timeslots (e.g., one uplink timeslot 606 as shown). The first timeslot format pattern may repeat over time. In some aspects, network node 110 may use one or more timeslot format indicators to indicate the first timeslot format pattern to UE 120. The timeslot format indicator used for a timeslot may indicate whether the timeslot is an uplink timeslot, a downlink timeslot, or a flexible timeslot, etc.

[0109] Network node 110 may (e.g., using indications such as RRC messages, MAC control element MAC-CE, or downlink control information (DCI)) instruct UE 120 to switch from first configuration 602 to second configuration 608. Alternatively, UE 120 may indicate to network node 110 that UE 120 is switching from first configuration 602 to second configuration 608. Second configuration 608 may indicate a second time slot format pattern that repeats over time, similar to the first time slot format pattern. In any of the aspects described above, UE 120 may switch from first configuration 602 to second configuration 608 for a period of time (e.g., a certain number of symbols and / or a certain amount of time (e.g., in ms)) based at least in part on an indication received from network node 110 (e.g., before switching back to first configuration 602). During this period, UE 120 may communicate using the second time slot format pattern and may then revert to using the first time slot format pattern after the end of the period. The time period may be indicated by network node 110 (e.g., in an instruction to switch from first configuration 602 to second configuration 608, as described above) and / or at least partially based on programmed and / or otherwise pre-configured rules. For example, the rule may be at least partially based on a table (e.g., defined in a 3GPP specification and / or another wireless communication standard) that associates different subcarrier spacings (SCS) and / or sets of parameters (e.g., represented by µ and associated with corresponding SCS) with corresponding time periods for switching configurations.

[0110] In Example 600, the second timeslot format mode includes a downlink timeslot 610, an uplink timeslot 618, and two SBFD timeslots instead of the downlink timeslot in the first timeslot format mode. In Example 600, each SBFD timeslot includes a portion of the timeslot for the downlink (e.g., a portion or subband of a frequency allocated for use by network node 110 and UE 120) (e.g., portions of timeslots 612a, 612b, 612c, and 612d as shown) and a portion of the timeslot for the uplink (e.g., portions of timeslots 614a and 614b as shown). Therefore, UE 120 can use the second timeslot format mode to operate and transmit uplink communication in an earlier timeslot (e.g., the second timeslot in the sequence, shown as portion of UL timeslot 614a) compared to using the first timeslot format mode (e.g., the fourth timeslot in the sequence). Other examples may include additional or alternative variations. For example, the second configuration 608 may indicate an SBFD slot instead of an uplink slot (e.g., UL slot 606) in the first configuration 602. In another example, the second configuration 608 may indicate either a downlink slot or an uplink slot instead of an SBFD slot in the first configuration 602. Figure 6 (Not shown in the image). In yet another example, the second configuration 608 may indicate a downlink time slot or an uplink time slot to replace the uplink time slot or downlink time slot in the first configuration 602, respectively. "SBFD time slot" may refer to a time slot in which the SBFD format is used. The SBFD format may include a time slot format in which (e.g., for both uplink and downlink communication) FD communication is supported, wherein one or more frequencies for the uplink portion of the time slot are separated from one or more frequencies for the downlink portion of the time slot by guard bands. In some examples, the SBFD format may include a single uplink portion and a single downlink portion separated by guard bands. In some examples, the SBFD format may include multiple downlink portions and a single uplink portion, the single uplink portion being separated from the multiple downlink portions by corresponding guard bands (e.g., as shown in the image). Figure 6 (As shown). In some examples, the SBFD format may include multiple uplink portions and a single downlink portion, which is separated from the multiple uplink portions by corresponding guard bands. In some examples, the SBFD format may include multiple uplink portions and multiple downlink portions, wherein each uplink portion is separated from the downlink portion by a guard band. In some examples, operating using SBFD mode may include activating or using FD mode in one or more time slots, at least in part, based on one or more time slots having the SBFD format. A time slot may support SBFD mode if uplink bandwidth portions (BWP) and downlink BWPs are permitted to be active or simultaneously in a time slot in an SBFD manner (e.g., using guard band separation).

[0111] By switching from the first configuration 602 to the second configuration 608, network node 110 and UE 120 may experience increased communication quality and / or reliability. For example, network node 110 and UE 120 may experience increased throughput (e.g., using FD mode), reduced latency (e.g., UE 120 may be able to use the second configuration 608 instead of the first configuration 602 to send uplink and / or receive downlink communication faster), and increased network resource utilization (e.g., by using both downlink BWP and uplink BWP simultaneously instead of using only downlink BWP or uplink BWP).

[0112] As indicated above, Figure 6 This is provided as an example. Other examples are available relative to... Figure 6 The examples described are different.

[0113] In some cases, UEs capable of FD and / or SBFD can be configured to communicate with one or more network nodes, cells, and / or TRPs capable of SBFD to further enhance system capacity, UL coverage, and reduce latency. In other cases, an SBFD UE can communicate with two half-duplex (HD) cells and / or TRPs (e.g., some cells with low capabilities can still be implemented in HD cell mode). In some cases, two or more communication modes can be implemented in different time periods. The ability to switch between communication modes can be useful to promote flexibility and efficiency in resource allocation and power consumption from the perspective of the UE and / or network nodes.

[0114] Figures 7A to 7D This is a diagram illustrating examples of various communication modes according to this disclosure. Figure 7A Example 700 illustrates a first communication mode (“Mode 1”) in which HDUE 702 communicates with network node 704 providing the HD cell. During a period of time, UE 702 may receive communication from or send communication to network node 704. Figure 7B Example 706 illustrates a second communication mode (“Mode 2”) of an SBFD cell in which network node 704 provides communication with two HD UEs 702 and 708. During a time period, UE 702 can simultaneously send communications to network node 704 and receive communications from network node 704 at the same time as UE 708 sends communications to network node 704.

[0115] Figure 7CExample 710 illustrates a third communication mode (“Mode 3”) in which the SBFD UE 702 communicates with the network node 704 providing the SBFD cell. During a period of time, the UE 702 may simultaneously send (e.g., via the UL subband) communication to the network node 704 and receive (e.g., via the DL subband) communication from the network node 704. Figure 7D Example 712 illustrates a fourth communication mode (“Mode 4”) in which the SBFD UE 702 communicates with one or more network nodes 704, 714 via two HD cells and / or HD TRPs, respectively. During a time period, the UE 702 may receive communication from a first TRP 704 (and / or via a first cell) and send communication to a second TRP 714 (and / or via a second cell). In some cases, a fifth communication mode (“Mode 5”) may be implemented, in which the FD UE communicates with one or more TRPs and / or via one or more cells. The FD UE may be configured for partially overlapping FD and / or fully overlapping FD.

[0116] Some aspects of the techniques and apparatus described herein may include configuring different sets of parameter values ​​at the UE for different communication modes. For example, in some cases, the UE may be configured using two or more sets of parameter values ​​associated with two or more communication modes. For instance, a first set of parameter values ​​may be associated with a first communication mode, and a second set of parameter values ​​may be associated with a second communication mode. A set of parameter values ​​can be said to be associated with a communication mode if it can be used by the UE and / or network nodes to communicate according to that communication mode. In this way, some aspects may facilitate the UE switching between communication modes at different time periods, thereby enhancing the flexibility of configuring HD and / or FD communication between one or more UEs and one or more network nodes, thus allowing for improved network efficiency in resource allocation and / or improved device efficiency in terms of power consumption.

[0117] As indicated above, Figures 7A to 7D This is provided as an example. Other examples are available with reference to [the relevant information]. Figures 7A to 7D The examples described are different.

[0118] Figure 8 This is a diagram illustrating an example 800 associated with a parameter set used for a UE communication mode according to this disclosure. For example... Figure 8 As shown, UE 802 and network node 804 can communicate with each other. In some aspects, UE 802 can be, resemble, include, or be included in the following: Figures 7A to 7D UE 702 and / or UE 708 as depicted in the text; Figures 4A to 4C UE1 402, UE1 402-1 and / or UE2 402-2 as depicted in the text; and / or Figures 1 to 3 The UE 120 is depicted in the diagram. In some respects, network node 804 may be, resemble, include, or be included in the following: Figures 7A to 7D The TRP 704 and / or TRP 714 depicted in the text; Figures 4A to 4C The TRP 404, TRP 404-1 and / or TRP 404-2 described in the document; Figure 1 and Figure 2 Network node 110 as depicted; and / or Figure 3 One or more components of the decomposed base station architecture 300 described herein.

[0119] As shown by reference numeral 806 in the accompanying drawings, UE 802 can transmit and network node 804 can receive capability information. In some aspects, the capability information may be associated with two or more communication modes among a plurality of communication modes. The two or more communication modes may include at least one FD mode. This at least one FD mode may include at least one of SBFD mode, partially overlapping FD mode, or fully overlapping FD mode. In some aspects, the two or more communication modes may include a first mode (e.g., mode 1), wherein UE 802 includes an HD UE and network node 804 provides an HD cell. In the first mode, UE 802 may communicate with network node 804 associated with a communication direction (e.g., uplink or downlink) during a time period (e.g., a symbol or a time slot). The two or more communication modes may include a second mode (e.g., mode 2), wherein UE 802 may include a first HD UE among a plurality of HD UEs and network node 804 provides an SBFD cell. In the second mode, UE 802 may communicate with network node 804 associated with a communication direction during that time period. Two or more communication modes may include a third mode (e.g., mode 3), where UE 802 includes an SBFD UE and network node 804 provides an SBFD cell. In the third mode, UE 802 may communicate with network node 804 in two communication directions during the time period. Two or more communication modes may include a fourth mode (e.g., mode 4), where UE 802 may include an SBFD UE and network node 804 may provide a Transmit / Receive Point (TRP) for one or more HD cells. In the fourth mode, UE 802 may communicate in a first communication direction via a cell or TRP during the time period, and in a second communication direction via an additional cell or additional TRP during the time period. Two or more communication modes may include a fifth communication mode (e.g., mode 5), where UE 802 may include partially overlapping FD UEs and / or fully overlapping FD UEs.

[0120] As shown by reference numeral 808 in the accompanying drawings, network node 804 can transmit and UE 802 can receive configuration information. In some aspects, the configuration information can be associated with two or more communication modes. In some aspects, the configuration information can indicate at least two sets of parameter values. Each set of parameter values ​​can be associated with a corresponding communication mode among the two or more communication modes. In some aspects, at least one parameter value in the at least two sets of parameter values ​​can be associated with two or more communication modes among multiple communication modes. In some aspects, a first parameter value in the at least two sets of parameter values ​​can be associated with a first communication mode during a first time period of multiple communication modes, and a second parameter value in the at least two sets of parameter values ​​can be associated with a second communication mode during a second time period of multiple communication modes. The first time period may include at least one of a first set of symbols or a first set of timeslots, and the second time period may include at least one of a second set of symbols or a second set of timeslots.

[0121] In some aspects, each of the at least two sets of parameter values ​​may indicate spatial parameters, uplink power control (PC) parameters, modulation and decoding schemes (MCS), antenna configuration, timing parameters, and / or operational parameters, etc. Spatial parameters may indicate antenna configuration, TCI status, downlink beam, uplink beam, and / or spatial relationships, etc. In some aspects, uplink PC parameters may indicate at least one of P0 parameters, α parameters, closed-loop index (CLI) parameters, and / or path loss reference signal (PLRS) parameters, etc. P0 parameters may include uplink PC parameters representing the target received power (e.g., for a receiver transmitting uplink). α parameters may include uplink PC parameters representing a compensation factor (e.g., a path loss compensation factor) in the power control formula of the transmit chain. CLI parameters may include uplink PC parameters indicating the transmit power command (TCP) index to be applied to one or more closed power control loops in the transmit chain. In some aspects, PLRS parameters may indicate the amount of path loss (e.g., the amount of signal power lost during transmission to network node 804). In some respects, PL RS parameters can indicate the resources to be measured by UE 802 to perform power control on the transmit chain. For example, PL RS parameters can indicate the reference signals to be measured for path loss estimation and power control estimation of the corresponding uplink channel.

[0122] In some aspects, timing parameters may indicate at least one of transmit timing or timing advance (TA). In other aspects, operational parameters may indicate the rank indicator (RI), pre-decoder matrix indicator (PMI), transmit pre-decoder matrix indicator (TPMI), demodulation reference signal (DMRS) format, time-domain resource allocation, frequency-domain resource allocation, physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) configuration, and / or pre-decoder resource block group (PRG), etc.

[0123] In some aspects, one or more parameter values ​​from at least two sets of parameter values ​​may be associated with a time period (e.g., a symbol or a time slot). In some aspects, one or more parameter values ​​from at least two sets of parameter values ​​may be associated with a bandwidth portion (BWP), a downlink subband of an SBFD communication mode, and / or an uplink subband of an SBFD communication mode.

[0124] In some aspects, network node 804 can configure multiple (two or three) separate parameters, such as spatial parameters, UL PC parameters, MCS, timing, etc., based on network node 804's indication of the operating mode, for UE 802 to apply on different symbols / time slots. In some aspects, some communication modes can share one or more of the same operating parameters. As an example, modes 3 and 4 can share the same parameters for UE 802. For example, an SBFD UE can use the same parameters regardless of whether the SBFD UE is communicating with SBFD network node 804 or with two HD TRPs. In some other cases, some modes can apply different operating parameters. For example, UE 802 can have different antenna configurations for different communication modes. For example, UE 804 can use a full antenna array for cell / TRP SBFD+HD UE mode, while UE 802 can split the full antenna array into two separate antenna arrays / panels for UE SBFD / FD mode.

[0125] In some respects, for SBFD UE mode, network node 804 can utilize two TCI states to configure UE 802 for paired DL and UL transmissions with limited self-interference, which can be associated with TCI states different from those of HD UE mode with Optimal Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) beams. As described above, the operating parameters can be different for different communication modes. In some respects, for example, if the parameters are different for two different communication modes (e.g., if an additional UE filter is used in SBFD mode for self-interference mitigation), the UE 802 RF components can be retuned. In some respects, UE 802 can apply the corresponding Random Access (RA) / Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) / operating parameters per time slot based on the indicated time slot mode (e.g., HD / SBFD time slot mode). In some respects, different RAs can better match the available DL / UL BWPs and / or subbands, which can differ at least in HD time slots and SBFD time slots.

[0126] As indicated by reference numeral 810 in the accompanying drawings, network node 804 can send and UE 802 can receive a communication mode indication. In some aspects, the communication mode indication can indicate an operating mode with two or more communication modes.

[0127] While transitions from one communication mode to another can be based on network node configuration and / or specific implementation, the frequency of mode transitions can be limited by any number of factors, such as, for example, phase continuity; potential interruptions in transmission and / or reception during the transition; the required guard time for the transition (if any); the potential impact on performance, on link adaptation, channel estimation, and / or other processes; UL transmission timing (if any); implementation complexity; and / or applicability to network node SBFD-aware UEs, FD-enabled UEs versus non-gNB SBFD-aware UEs, and / or UEs that do not support FD. In some aspects, wireless communication standards may include rules for defining the maximum number of transition points between communication modes.

[0128] In some respects, the maximum number of transition points can be applied to a time period and can be associated with any number of factors (e.g., determined based on any number of factors), such as, for example, the SBFD and / or FD capabilities of UE 802 (e.g., dynamic capabilities), the SBFD and / or FD capabilities of network node 804, overhead time, protection time, and the implementation complexity of UE 802 and / or network node 804 (e.g., regarding RF retuning and / or filter changes).

[0129] For example, in some aspects, the communication mode indication may be associated with mode transition conditions. Mode transition conditions may be associated with the maximum number of transition points during a specified time period. In some aspects, the indication of the maximum number of transition points may be maintained in one or more memories of the UE 802 (e.g., as a result specified in the wireless communication standard). In some aspects, the maximum number of transition points may be associated with transition delay, UE SBFD capability, UE partially overlapping FD capability, UE fully overlapping FD capability, network node SBFD capability, network node partially overlapping FD capability, network node fully overlapping FD capability, overhead timing of mode transition, mode transition guard time, UE implementation complexity, and / or network node implementation complexity, etc.

[0130] In some respects, the maximum number of transition points can be associated with the time division duplex (TDD) uplink / downlink timeslot format pattern period. In other respects, the maximum number of transition points can be associated with the semi-static network node SBFD configuration period. The maximum number of transition points can also be associated with timeslots. For example, one transition point in the maximum number of transition points can be aligned with a timeslot boundary or within a timeslot.

[0131] In some aspects, the number of transition points in the maximum number of transition points may be associated with the UE's transition point capability. In some aspects, capability information may indicate the UE's transition point capability. In some aspects, the UE's transition point capability may indicate one or more maximum transition point numbers. One or more maximum transition point numbers may include a first maximum transition point number associated with a first SCS and a second maximum transition point number associated with a second SCS.

[0132] For example, in some aspects, UE 802 may report one or more capabilities regarding the maximum number of transition points between two or more communication modes within a time slot, a TDD UL / DL mode cycle, and / or a semi-static network node SBFD configuration cycle per SCS. As an example, UE 802 may report N transition points between mode I and mode J within a time slot at 30 kHz and M transition points between mode I and mode J within a time slot / TDD UL / DL mode cycle / semi-static network node SBFD configuration cycle at 120 kHz as the maximum number of transition points. As another example, UE 802 may report N transition points between mode K and mode M within a time slot / TDD UL / DL mode cycle / semi-static network node SBFD configuration cycle at 30 kHz and M handover points between mode K and mode M within a time slot / TDD UL / DL mode cycle / semi-static network node SBFD configuration cycle at 120 kHz as the maximum number of transition points.

[0133] In some aspects, the UE's switching point capability may indicate only one reference maximum number of switching points for a frequency range. This reference maximum number of switching points may be associated with a first SCS, and the maximum number of switching points associated with a second SCS for that frequency range may include a scaling value associated with this reference maximum number of switching points. For example, in some aspects, UE 802 may report only one reference capability regarding the maximum number of switching points between two or more communication modes within a time slot / TDD UL / DL mode cycle / semi-static network node SBFD configuration cycle per FR. As an example, UE 802 may report S1 switching points between mode I and mode J within a time slot / TDD UL / DL mode cycle / semi-static network node SBFD configuration cycle at 60 kHz. UE 802 may scale this number for other SCSs of FR2. For example, in some aspects, reporting a reference maximum number of switching points may mean S1 / 2 switching points between mode I and mode J within a time slot / TDD UL / DL mode cycle / semi-static network node SBFD configuration cycle at 120 kHz. As another example, UE 802 may report S2 transition points between Mode I and Mode J within a time slot at 15 kHz / TDD UL / DL mode period / semi-static network node SBFD configuration period, and then scale for other SCSs of FR1 (e.g., meaning a maximum of S2 / 2 transition points between Mode I and Mode J within a time slot at 30 kHz / TDD UL / DL mode period / semi-static network node SBFD configuration period). In some respects, the maximum number of transition points may be specified by a wireless communication standard, which may specify, for example, any number of the configurations described above (e.g., explicit specification of the maximum number of transition points for time periods and SCSs, and / or specification of a reference maximum number of transition points, etc.).
