SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SELECTING OR TRANSMITTING FREQUENCY DOMAIN STANDARDS TO PHASE TRACKING REFERENCE SIGNS
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED ORDERS [0001]
This application claims the benefit of provisional application serial number US 62 / 446,342, entitled SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO SELECT OR TRANSMITTING FREQUENCY DOMAIN PATTEMS FOR PHASE TRACKING REFERENCE SIGNALS and filed on January 13, 2017, and patent application No. US 15 / 711,157, entitled SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO SELECT OR TRANSMITTING FREQUENCY DOMAIN PATTERNS FOR phase tracking reference signals and filed on September 21, 2017, which are expressly incorporated in this document as a reference in their entirety.
BACKGROUND
Field [0002]
The present disclosure generally relates to communication systems more particularly, to systems and methods for selecting frequency domain patterns for phase tracking reference signals and / or transmitting frequency domain patterns for phase tracking reference signals.
Background [0003]
Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various telecommunication services, such as telephony, video, data, messages and broadcasts. Typical wireless communication systems can employ multiple access technologies with
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 7/81
2/52 ability to support communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources. Examples of such multiple access technologies include code division multiple access systems (CDMA), time division multiple access systems (TDMA), frequency division multiple access systems (FDMA), multiple access systems by orthogonal frequency division (OFDMA), single-carrier frequency division multiple access systems (SC-FDMA) and time-division synchronous code division multiple access systems (TD-SCDMA).
[0004] These multiple access technologies have been adopted in several telecommunication standards to provide a common protocol that allows different wireless devices to communicate at a municipal, national, regional and even global level. An exemplary telecommunication standard is the New Radio 5G (NR). NR 5G is part of a continuous mobile broadband evolution promulgated by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) to meet new requirements associated with latency, reliability, security, scalability (for example, with Internet of Things (loT)) and others requirements. Some aspects of NR 5G may be based on the 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) standard. There is a need for further improvements in NR 5G technology. These enhancements may also apply to other multiple access technologies and the telecommunication standards that employ these technologies.
SUMMARY [0005] The following is a summary

The detailed description includes specific details for the purpose of providing a complete understanding of various concepts. However, it will be evident to those skilled in the art that these concepts can be practiced without these specific details. In some cases, well-known structures and components are shown in the

[0022] Several aspects of telecommunication systems will now be presented with reference to various devices and methods. These devices and methods will be described in the detailed description below and illustrated in the accompanying drawings by various blocks, components, circuits, processes, algorithms, etc. (collectively called elements). These elements can be implemented using electronic hardware, computer software or any combination thereof. The possibility of such elements being implemented as hardware or software, depends on the particular application and the design restrictions imposed on the general system.
[0023] By way of example, an element, or any portion of an element, or any combination of elements can be implemented as a processing system that includes one or more processors. Examples of processors include microprocessors, microcontrollers, graphics processing units (GPUs), central processing units (CPUs), application processors, digital signal processors (DSPs), reduced instruction set computing (RISC) processors, systems in a chip (SoC), baseband processors, field programmable port arrays (FPGAs), programmable logic devices (PLDs), state machines, port logic, discrete hardware circuits and other suitable hardware configured to perform the various functionalities described throughout this disclosure. One or more

7/52 processors in the processing system can run software. The software must be interpreted broadly to mean instructions, instruction sets, code, code segments, program code, programs, subprograms, software components, applications, software applications, software packages, routines, subroutines, objects, executables, chains of execution, procedures, functions, etc., whether called software, firmware, middleware, microcode, hardware description language or otherwise.
[0024] Consequently, in one or more exemplary modalities, the functions described can be implemented in hardware, software or any combination thereof. If implemented in software, the functions can be stored or coded as one or more instructions or code in a computer-readable medium. Computer-readable media includes computer storage media. A storage medium can be any available medium that can be accessed by a computer. As an example, and without limitation, such computer-readable media may comprise random access memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM), an electrically erasable programmable ROM (EEPROM), optical disk storage, storage of magnetic disk, other magnetic storage devices, combinations of the types mentioned above for computer-readable media or any other medium that can be used to store computer-executable code in the form of instructions or data structures that can be accessed by a computer.

Figure 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of a wireless communications system and an access network 100. The wireless communications system (also called a wireless wide area network (WWAN)) includes base stations 102 , UEs 104 and an Evolved Packet Core (EPC) 160. Base stations 102 can include macrocells (high power cell base station) and / or small cells (low power cell base station). The macrocells include base stations. Small cells include femtocells, picocells and microcells.
[0026]
Base stations 102 (collectively called the Terrestrial Radio Access Network (EUTRAN) of the Universal Land Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS)) interface with the EPC 160 through return transport channel links 132 (for example, interface Sl). In addition to other functions, base stations 102 can perform one or more of the following functions: user data transfer, radio channel encryption and decryption, integrity protection, header compression, mobility control functions (for example, handover, dual connectivity), intercellular interference coordination, connection configuration and release, load balancing, distribution to stratum messages without access (NAS), NAS node selection, synchronization, radio access network (RAN) sharing, multimedia multicast and broadcast service (MBMS), subscriber and equipment tracking, RAN information management (RIM), paging, positioning and delivery of warning messages. Base stations 102 can communicate directly or indirectly (for example, through EPC 160)
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 14/81
9/52 to each other via return transport channel links 134 (e.g., interface X2). Return transport channel links 134 can be wired or wireless.
[0027] Base stations 102 can communicate wirelessly with UEs 104. Each base station 102 can provide communication coverage for a respective geographic coverage area 110. There may be overlapping geographical coverage areas 110. For example, small cell 102 'may have a coverage area 110' that overlaps coverage area 110 of one or more base stations 102. A network that includes both small cells and macrocells may be known as a heterogeneous network. A heterogeneous network can also include Domestic Evolved B Nodes (eNBs) (HeNBs), which can provide service to a restricted group known as a closed subscriber group (CSG). Communication links 120 between base stations 102 and UEs 104 may include uplink (UL) transmissions (also called reverse link) from UE 104 to base station 102 and / or downlink ( DL) (also called a direct link) from a base station 102 to a UE 104. Communication links 120 can use multiple input multiple antenna (MIMO) technology, including spatial multiplexing, beam formation and / or diversity of transmission. The communication links can be through one or more carriers. Base stations 102 / UEs 104 can use spectrum up to Y MHz (for example, 5, 10, 15, 20, 100 MHz) of bandwidth per carrier allocated in a carrier aggregation of up to a total of Yx
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 15/81
10/52
MHz (x component carriers) used for transmission in each direction. The carriers may or may not be adjacent to each other. The allocation of carriers can be asymmetric in relation to DL and UL (for example, more or less carriers can be allocated to DL than to UL). Component carriers may include a primary component carrier and one or more secondary component carriers. A primary component carrier can be called a primary cell (PCell) and a secondary component carrier can be called a secondary cell (SCell).
[0028] Certain UEs 104 can communicate with each other using the device-to-device (D2D) 192 communication link. The D2D 192 communication link can use the WWAN DL / UL spectrum. The D2D communication link 192 may use one or more side link channels, such as a physical side link diffusion channel (PSBCH), a physical side link discovery channel (PSDCH), a shared physical side link channel ( PSSCH) and a physical side link control channel (PSCCH). D2D communication can take place through a variety of wireless D2D communication systems, such as, for example, FlashLinQ, WiMedia, Bluetooth, ZigBee, WiFi based on the IEEE 802.11, LTE or NR standard.
[0029] The wireless communications system may additionally include a Wi-Fi (AP) access point 150 in communication with Wi-Fi stations (STAs) 152 via communication links 154 over an unlicensed frequency spectrum of 5 GHz When communicating on an unlicensed frequency spectrum, STAs 152 / AP 150 can
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 16/81
11/52 perform free channel assessment (CCA) before communicating in order to determine if the channel is available.
[0030] Small cell 102 'can operate on a licensed and / or unlicensed frequency spectrum. When operating on an unlicensed frequency spectrum, small cell 102 'can employ NR and use the same 5 GHz unlicensed frequency spectrum as used by the Wi-Fi AP 150. Small cell 102', which employs NR on an unlicensed frequency spectrum, can amplify coverage and / or increase the capacity of the access network.
[0031] gNodeB (gNB) 180 can operate at millimeter wave frequencies (mmW) and / or near mmW frequencies in communication with UE 104. When gNB 180 operates at mmW or nearby mmW frequencies, gNB 180 can be called an mmW base station. The extremely high frequency (EHF) is part of the RF in the electromagnetic spectrum. The EHF has a range of 30 GHz to 300 GHz and a wavelength between 1 millimeter and 10 millimeters. The radio waves in the band can be called a millimeter wave. The nearby mmW can extend down to a frequency of 3 GHz with a wavelength of 100 millimeters. The super high frequency band (SHF) extends between 3 GHz and 30 GHz, also called centimeter wave. Communications using the nearby mmW / mmW radio frequency band have extremely high path losses and a short range. The 180 mmW base station can use beamform 184 with the UE 104 to compensate for extremely high path loss and short range.
[0032] EPC 160 may include an

Mobility Management (MME) 162, other MMEs 164, a Server Communication Port 166, a Multimedia Broadcast and Multicast Service Communication Port (MBMS) 168, a Broadcast and Multicast Service Center (BM-SC ) 170 and a Packet Data Network (PDN) Communication Port 172. MME 162 can communicate with a Domestic Subscriber Server (HSS) 174. MME 162 is the control node that processes signaling between the UEs 104 and EPC 160. Generally, MME 162 provides transmission and connection management. All user Internet Protocol (IP) packets are transferred via Server Communication Port 166, which is properly connected to PDN Communication Port 172. PDN Communication Port 172 provides UE IP address allocation, as well as other functions. PDN Communication Port 172 and BM-SC 170 are connected to IP Services 176. IP Services 176 may include the Internet, an intranet, an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), a PS Stream Service and / or others IP services. The BM-SC 170 can provide functions for provisioning and delivering MBMS user service. The BMSC 170 can serve as an entry point for content provider MBMS transmission, can be used to authorize and start MBMS Carrier Services within a public land mobile network (PLMN), and can be used to schedule MBMS transmissions. Communication Port MBMS 168 can be used to distribute MBMS traffic to base stations 102 that belong to a Single Frequency Broadcast and Multicast (MBSFN) area that broadcasts a particular service, and can be

13/52 responsible for session management (start / stop) and for collecting eMBMS related to billing information.
[0033] The base station can also be called a gNB, Evolved Node B (eNB), an access point, a transceiver base station, a radio base station, a radio transceiver, a transceiver function, a set of basic services (BSS), a set of extended services (ESS) or some other suitable terminology. Base station 102 provides an access point for EPC 160 for an UE 104. Examples of UEs 104 include a cell phone, a smart phone, a session initiation protocol (SIP) phone, a laptop computer , a personal digital assistant (PDA), a satellite radio, a global positioning system, a multimedia device, a video device, a digital audio player (for example, MP3 player), a camera, a game console , a tablet-like device, a smart device, a device that can be worn close to the body, a vehicle, an electronic meter, a gas pump, a toaster, or any other similarly functioning device. Some of the UEs 104 can be called loT devices (for example, parking meter, gas pump, toaster, vehicles, etc.). UE 104 can also be called a station, a mobile station, a subscriber station, a mobile unit, a subscriber unit, a wireless unit, a remote unit, a mobile device, a wireless device, a wireless device wireless communications, a remote device, a mobile subscriber station, an access terminal, a mobile terminal, a wireless terminal, a remote terminal, a handset, a

14/52 user agent, mobile client, client or some other suitable terminology.
[0034] Referring again to Figure 1, in certain respects, UE 104 / eNB 102 (or gNB as discussed below) can be configured to select a time-frequency feature for phase tracking reference signals (PT -RS) based on a condition of a communication system, and transmit an indication of the selected time-frequency resource to a second wireless communication device (198).
[0035] Figure 2A is a diagram 200 that illustrates an example of a DL frame structure. Figure 2B is a diagram 230 which illustrates an example of channels within the DL frame structure. Figure 2C is a diagram 250 that illustrates an example of a UL frame structure. Figure 2D is a diagram 280 that illustrates an example of channels within the UL frame structure. Other wireless communication technologies may have a different frame structure and / or different channels. One frame (10 ms) can be divided into 10 equally sized subframes. Each subframe can include two consecutive time partitions. A resource grid can be used to represent the two time partitions, each time partition including one or more simultaneous resource blocks (RBs) (also called physical RBs (PRBs)). The resource grid is divided into multiple resource elements (REs). For a normal cycle prefix, an RB can contain 12 consecutive subcarriers in the frequency domain and 7 consecutive symbols (for DL, OFDM symbols; for UL, SC-FDMA symbols) in the time domain, for
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 20/81
15/52 a total of 84 REs. For an extended cyclic prefix, an RB can contain 12 consecutive subcarriers in the frequency domain and 6 consecutive symbols in the time domain, for a total of 72 REs. The number of bits carried by each RE depends on the modulation scheme.
[0036] As illustrated in Figure 2A, some of the REs carry DL (pilot) reference signals (DL-RS) for channel estimation in the UE. DL-RS can include cell-specific reference signals (CRS) (also sometimes called RS), UE-specific reference signals (UE-RS) and channel status information reference signals (CSI-RS) . Figure 2A illustrates CRS for antenna ports 0, 1, 2 and 3 (indicated as RO, Rl, R2 and R3, respectively), UE-RS for antenna port 5 (indicated as R5) and CSI-RS for antenna port antenna 15 (indicated as R). Figure 2B illustrates an example of several channels within a DL subframe of a frame. The physical control format indicator channel (PCFICH) is located within the 0 symbol of partition 0, and carries a control format indicator (CFI) indicating whether the physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) occupies 1, 2 or 3 symbols (Figure 2B illustrates a PDCCH that occupies 3 symbols). The PDCCH carries downlink control information (DCI) within one or more channel elements (CCEs), each CCE including nine groups of REs (REGs), each REG including four consecutive REs in an OFDM symbol. A UE can be configured with an advanced UE-specific PDCCH (ePDCCH) that also port DCI. The ePDCCH can have 2, 4 or 8 RB pairs (Figure 2B shows two RB pairs, each subset including a RB pair). The indicator channel
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 21/81
Physical Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) (PHICH) 16/52 (HARQ) is also located within the 0 symbol of partition 0 and carries the HARQ (HI) indicator which indicates HARQ acknowledgment feedback (ACK) / ACK negative acknowledgment (NACK) based on the shared physical uplink channel (PUSCH). The primary synchronization channel (PSCH) can be located within the symbol 6 of partition 0 within subframes 0 and 5 of a frame. The PSCH carries a primary synchronization signal (PSS) which is used by a UE 104 to determine the subframe / symbol timing and a physical layer identity. The secondary synchronization channel (SSCH) can be located within the symbol 5 of partition 0 within subframes 0 and 5 of a frame. The SSCH carries a secondary synchronization signal (SSS) that is used by a UE to determine a number of physical layer cell identity and radio frame timing groups. Based on the physical layer identity and the physical layer cell identity group number, the UE can determine a physical cell identifier (PCI). Based on the PCI, the UE can determine the DL-RS locations mentioned above. The physical broadcast channel (PBCH), which carries a master information block (MIB), can be logically grouped with the PSCH and SSCH to form a synchronization signal block (SS). The MIB provides several RBs in the DL system bandwidth, a PHICH configuration and a number of system frames (SFN). The physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) carries user data, broadcast system information not transmitted through the PBCH, such as system information blocks (SIBs) and paging messages.
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 22/81
17/52 [0037] As shown in Figure 2C, some of the REs carry demodulation reference signals (DM-RS) for channel estimation at the base station. The UE can additionally transmit audible reference signals (SRS) on the last symbol of a subframe. SRS can have a comb structure, and a UE can transmit SRS on one of the combs. The SRS can be used by a base station to estimate channel quality to allow frequency-dependent programming at UL. Figure 2D illustrates an example of several channels within a UL subframe of a frame. A physical random access channel (PRACH) can be located in one or more subframes within a frame based on the PRACH configuration. PRACH can include six consecutive RB pairs within a subframe. PRACH allows the UE to perform initial system access and achieve UL synchronization. A physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) can be located at the edges of the UL system bandwidth. The PUCCH carries uplink control (UCI) information, such as scheduling requests, a channel quality indicator (CQI), a pre-coding matrix indicator (PMI), a rating indicator (RI) and feedback ACK / NACK HARQ. The PUSCH carries data, and can additionally be used to carry a temporary storage status report (BSR), a dynamic power reserve report (PHR) and / or UCI.
[0038] Figure 3 is a block diagram of a base station 310 in communication with a UE 350 on an access network. In the DL, EPC 160 IP packets can be delivered to a 375 controller / processor.
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 23/81
18/52 controller / processor 375 implements layer 3 and layer 2 functionality. Layer 3 includes a radio resource control layer (RRC), and layer 2 includes a packet data convergence protocol layer (PDCP) ), a radio link control layer (RLC) and a medium access control layer (MAC). The 375 controller / processor provides RR layer functionality associated with the diffusion of system information (for example, MIB, SIBs), RRC connection control (for example, RRC connection paging, RRC connection establishment, RRC connection modification and release RRC connection), mobility of inter-radio access technology (RAT), and measurement configuration for EU measurement report; PDCP layer functionality associated with header compression / decompression, security (encryption, decryption, integrity protection, integrity checking), and handover support functions; RLC layer functionality associated with the transfer of upper layer packet data units (PDUs), error correction through ARQ, concatenation, segmentation and reassembly of RLC service data units (SDUs), re-segmentation of RLC data PDUs, and reordering RLC data PDUs; and MAC layer functionality associated with mapping between logical channels and transport channels, multiplexing of MAC SDUs over transport blocks (TBs), demultiplexing of MAC SDUs from TBs, programming information reporting, error correction through HARQ, Priority handling and logical channel prioritization.
[0039] The transmission processor (TX) 316 and
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 24/81
19/52 the receiving processor (RX) 370 implements layer 1 functionality associated with various signal processing functions. Layer 1, which includes a physical layer (PHY), can include error detection on transport channels, direct error correction (FEC) encoding / decoding of transport channels, interleaving, rate matching, mapping on physical channels, modulation / demodulation of physical channels and MIMO antenna processing. The TX 316 processor handles mapping for signal constellations based on various modulation schemes (for example, binary phase shift switch (BPSK), quadrature phase shift switch (QPSK), M phase shift switch (M -PSK), amplitude modulation in M quadrature (M-QAM)). The coded and modulated symbols can then be divided into parallel streams. For example, each stream can then be mapped to an OFDM subcarrier, multiplexed with a reference signal (eg pilot) in the time and / or frequency domain and then combined with the use of a Fast Fourier Transform. Inverse (IFFT) to produce a physical channel that carries an OFDM symbol stream in the time domain. Alternatively, each stream can then be precoded with a DFT precoder, multiplexed with a reference signal (eg, a pilot signal) in the time and / or frequency domain, and then combined together with each stream. which uses an IFFT to produce a physical channel that carries a single-carrier FDM (SC-FDM) symbol stream in the time domain. OFDM or SC-FDM streams can be spatially pre-coded to produce multiple
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 25/81
20/52 spatial flows. Channel estimates from a 374 channel estimator can be used to determine the coding and modulation scheme, as well as for spatial processing. The channel estimation can be derived from a reference signal and / or channel condition feedback transmitted by the UE 350. Each spatial stream can then be provided to a different antenna 320 via a separate 318TX transmitter. Each 318TX transmitter can modulate an RF carrier with a corresponding spatial flow for transmission.
[0040] In the UE 350, each 354RX receiver receives a signal through its respective antenna 352. Each 354RX receiver retrieves modulated information in an RF carrier and provides the information to the receiving (RX) 356 processor. The TX 368 processor and the RX 356 processor implements layer 1 functionality associated with various signal processing functions. The RX 356 processor can perform spatial processing on information to retrieve any spatial streams destined for the UE 350. If multiple spatial streams are destined for the UE 350, they can be combined by the RX 356 processor into a single OFDM / SC-FDM symbol stream . In the case of OFDM, the RX 356 processor then converts the flow of OFDM symbols from the time domain to the frequency domain using a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The frequency domain signal comprises a separate OFDM symbol stream for each OFDM signal subcarrier. In another case of SC-FDM, the RX 356 processor first converts the SC-FDM symbol stream from the time domain to the frequency domain using a Fast Data Transform.

Fourier (FFT) and then obtain the symbol after ο de-spreading using a DFT matrix. The symbols on each subcarrier, and the reference signal, are retrieved and demodulated by determining the signal constellation points most likely transmitted by base station 310. These smooth decisions can be based on channel estimates computed by the channel estimator 358 Smooth decisions are then decoded and deinterleaved to retrieve the data and control signals that were originally transmitted by base station 310 on the physical channel. The control data and signals are then provided to the 359 controller / processor, which implements layer 3 and layer 2 functionality.
[0041] The controller / processor 359 can be associated with a 360 memory that stores codes and program data. 360 memory can be called a computer-readable medium. At UL, the 359 controller / processor provides demultiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet gathering, decryption, header decompression and control signal processing to retrieve IP packets from EPC 160. The 359 controller / processor is also responsible by detecting errors using an ACK and / or NACK protocol to support HARQ operations.
[0042] Similar to the functionality described in conjunction with DL transmission by base station 310, the 359 controller / processor provides RRC layer functionality associated with the acquisition of system information (eg, MIB, SIBs), RRC connections and reporting measurement; PDCP layer functionality associated with

22/52 header compression / decompression, security (encryption, decryption, integrity protection, integrity verification); RLC layer functionality associated with transfer of top layer PDUs, error correction through ARQ, concatenation, segmentation and reassembly of RLC SDUs, re-segmentation of RLC data PDUs, and reordering of RLC data PDUs; and MAC layer functionality associated with mapping between logical channels and transport channels, demultiplexing of MAC SDUs over TBs, demultiplexing of MAC SDUs from TBs, programming information reporting, error correction through HARQ, priority handling and prioritization logical channel.
[0043] Channel estimates derived by a 358 channel estimator from a reference or feedback signal transmitted by base station 310 can be used by the TX 368 processor to select the appropriate coding and modulation schemes, and facilitate spatial processing. The spatial streams generated by the TX 368 processor can be provided for different antenna 352 via separate transmitters 354TX. Each 354TX transmitter can modulate an RF carrier with a corresponding spatial flow for transmission.
[0044] The UL transmission is processed at base station 310 in a similar manner to that described in conjunction with the receiving function on UE 350. Each 318RX receiver receives a signal through its respective antenna 320. Each 318RX receiver retrieves modulated information on a RF carrier and provides the information to a processor

[0045] The controller / processor 375 can be associated with a memory 376 which stores codes and program data. Memory 376 can be called a computer-readable medium. At UL, the 375 controller / processor provides demultiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, control signal processing to retrieve IP packets from the UE 350. IP packets from the controller / 375 processor can be provided for EPC 160. The 375 controller / processor is also responsible for error detection using an ACK and / or NACK protocol to support HARQ operations.
[0046] Some examples described in this document refer to a next generation Node B (gNB). Base stations 102 and base stations 310 and any other similar devices described in relation to Figures 1 to 3 can generally be replaced with gNBs. (GNBs may have some differences from base stations 310, which will be understood by those skilled in the art.
[0047] Some aspects of systems and methods can transmit and / or receive signals through at least one of the Shared Physical Uplink Channel (PUSCH) or the Shared Physical Downlink Channel (PDSCH).
[0048] Phase errors can cause detection errors and an increased bit error rate, which can lead to an increased number of retransmissions and / or a lower transfer rate. The phase tracking reference signals (PT-RS) can be used to track
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 29/81
24/52 and correct phase errors in the received symbols. For example, PT-RS can be used to track and correct errors in mmW systems. Phase errors can be caused by phase noise (PN), carrier frequency deviation (CFO) and Doppler shift. PN are rapid random fluctuations in the phase of a waveform. PN can be caused by flickering of an oscillator on a wireless link, for example. PN can have a greater impact on millimeter wave (mmW) systems due to the fact that the carrier frequency is higher and the PN power increases as the carrier frequency increases. CFO and Doppler shift can also result in the phase of a variable signal in time from symbol to symbol. Consequently, there may be different distortions in the phase from one symbol to the next.
[0049] Figure 4 is a diagram that illustrates an example of channel assignment / signaling for time-frequency resources that can be used in a communication system. Figure 4 illustrates PT-RS pilot signals (also called PT-RS pilot tones) for a Cycle Prefix Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (CP-OFDM) communication system. The PT-RS pilot signals can be continuous (as shown) or discontinuous in the time domain. For a UE, PT-RS signals can occupy one tone or several tones, based on the programmed bandwidth, Modulation and Encoding Scheme (MCS), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), interference, PN mask (PN power) ), port mapping and / or other attributes that may impact the signal quality received from communication signals. THE
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 30/81
25/52 phase noise can be modeled as a random noise process. A PN mask can describe the PN power distribution in the frequency domain. Generally, a higher MCS implies that a higher SNR may be required for the same error rate. A higher MCS, a higher programmed bandwidth, a higher SNR and / or higher interference may require more PT-RS tones. A larger PN mask may require more PT-RS tones.
[0050] A higher SNR on PTRS pilot signals can provide a more accurate phase error estimate. Consequently, in some respects, the PT-RS pilot signals may be located in the tones with good channel conditions, high SNR and / or high signal-to-noise ratio (SINR) which can result in more accurate phase tracking at the receiver . Increasing the number of PT-RS pilot signals can provide a more accurate phase error rate estimate. For example, an increased number of PT-RS pilot signals may allow thermal noise to be measured using the largest number of PT-RS pilot signals. In addition, an increased number of PT-RS pilot signals can allow frequency diversity to be exploited. For a given communication link with a given channel model and SNR / MCS / PN, an increased number of PT-RS pilot signals can lead to a performance gain, for example, increased data rate. However, gaining the increased number of PT-RS pilot signals can saturate a given number of PT-RS pilot signals within a programmed bandwidth. Consequently, UEs with a large programmed bandwidth can use a more sparse PT-RS frequency domain pattern. On the other hand, UEs with
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 31/81
26/52 a small programmed bandwidth can use a denser PT-RS frequency domain pattern. In one aspect, the selection of the PT-RS frequency domain pattern may depend on the programmed bandwidth and channel conditions. In one example, a PT-RS pattern can be from a predefined pattern dictionary and can have a number of tones for each PT-RS tone. In another example, an RB / subband index can use PT-RS tone locations within each RB / subband that are predefined. An aspect can select a pattern and inform about the frequency pattern by sending a number of PT-RS tones, the tone locations and the port mapping, for example, in which of the spatial flows the PT-RS tones are mapped.
[0051] The required number of PT-RS pilot signals to achieve a certain performance requirement, for example a bit error rate less than 0.5%, 1%, 2%, some or bit error rate or some other performance metric, for a given programmed bandwidth can depend on several factors, such as channel conditions, UE speed, UE capacity, UE processing power, UE battery charge, mobility and other factors that can cause impact on the performance of the communication system. A communication system with very few PT-RS signals can result in more retransmissions due to channel errors, which reduce throughput. A system with many PT — RS signals can use valuable system bandwidth for minimal reduction in the channel error rate. Therefore, the PT-RS signal configuration can be selected based on channel conditions and / or bandwidth. In some respects, the UE and eNB may
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 32/81
27/52 negotiate a suitable PT-RS configuration.
[0052] Some PT-RS projects, such as the PT-RS project illustrated in Figure 4, may use a fixed PT-RS frequency domain pattern. The density of the PT-RS pilot signals can be fixed either in the number of PTRS patterns, for example, 1 PT-RS tone per 48 tones, 1 PT-RS tone per 96 tones and the locations of the PT-RS tones can be fixed at particular time-frequency resource locations. For example, the PT-RS pilot signals can choose from a predefined set, for example, selected from one PT-RS tone for 48 tones and locations of PT-RS tones can be fixed, for example in 4 tone all 48 tones. Consequently, in some examples, the PT-RS pilot signals can be uniformly located in the frequency domain.
[0053] Figure 5 is a diagram that illustrates an example of available time-frequency resources, as indicated by the empty boxes that represent unassigned resource elements. Time-frequency features can be used in a communication system. The diagram in Figure 5 illustrates a number of time partitions across the geometric time axis and tones across the geometric frequency axis. Each tone in a particular time partition forms a feature element. Resource elements are not pre-assigned, as indicated by the open time-frequency diagram that does not show any pre-assigned resource elements, that is, the standards for PDCCH, DMRS, PU (D) SCH and / or PT- RS are not overlaid on unassigned resource elements. For example, in Figure 5, none of the resource elements are pre-assigned,
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 33/81
28/52 as indicated by the empty boxes that do not include any of the standards that indicate an assignment of one of PDCCH, DMRS, PU (D) SCH and / or PT-RS to that feature element. Consequently, each resource element is open and can be assigned for use by a PT-RS pilot signal. In comparison, in Figure 4, resource elements can be pre-assigned. In Figure 4, a fixed number of tones is used for PT-RS pilot signals regardless of the bandwidth used for data transmissions. Consequently, too much or too little bandwidth can be dedicated to the PT-RS signal, depending on the data being transmitted. Figure 5 illustrates an example in which the number of resource elements used for PT-RS can vary depending on conditions due to the fact that each resource element can be opened and assigned as needed. (In other respects, some time-frequency resources may be pre-assigned and another time-frequency resource open for assignment.) [0054] On systems with a fixed number of PT-RS pilot signals, for large bandwidth UEs, more PT-RS pilot signals than necessary can be activated. For smaller bandwidth UEs, the number of PT-RS pilot signals may not be sufficient to establish reliable communications between wireless communication devices. That is, the system with a fixed number of pilot PT-RS signals may not be dependent on the channel condition, particularly a frequency selective channel. PT-RS pilot signal time-frequency locations (for example, Figure 3) may have a weak channel condition, such as low SNR or strong interference.
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 34/81
29/52
Consequently, in one aspect, signaling methods can be used to select PT-RS pilot signal frequency domain patterns (for example, time-frequency locations for PT-RS pilot signals) based on channel condition and width programmed bandwidth.
[0055] In one aspect, a first device (UE or gNB) can select the preferred frequency domain pattern (or patterns) of the device. The frequency domain pattern (or patterns) can include the number of PT-RS pilot signals, tone locations and port mapping, that is, which of the PT-RS pilot spatial streams or layers will be inserted. The frequency domain pattern (or patterns) may also indicate the recommended pattern (or patterns) and / or the priority of such patterns for a second device (for example, gNB or UE). (When the first device is a gNB, the second device can be a UE. The reverse can also be true.) [0056] In some respects, the recommendation for frequency standards can be made based on MCS, channel conditions, for example, SNR, interference in each sub-band, PN property (of each port), programmed bandwidth, port / layer mapping, resource programming for other UEs, if CFO / Doppler shift are also present and / or others channel condition indicators. A PN property can include, for example, the power and frequency response as defined in the frequency domain, power spectrum density or a PN mask. The port / layer mapping can be defined as which of the spatial streams / layers
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 35/81
30/52 the PT-RS pilot signals will be mapped.
[0057] For example, the number of PT-RS pilot signals can be chosen based on the MCS and programmed frequency bands. The PT-RS pilot signal location can also be chosen based on channel conditions. For example, PT-RS pilot signal locations can be selected for the feature tones / blocks (RBs) with the best channel conditions (for example, highest SINR, or other measurements of channel conditions or combinations of such measurements) ). Such selections can be transmitted from the UE to the gNB using, for example, a CSI-RS report and / or from the gNB to the UE using the DCI.
[0058] After receiving the selections, the receiving device (gNB or UE, depending on which device selects UE or gNB) can send a confirmation signal to inform which recommended pattern will be used or choose an alternative frequency pattern for PT-RS transmission, and inform the other device (gNB or UE) of the alternative frequency standard for PT-RS transmission.
[0059] The decision whether or not to follow the recommendations can be made based on the MCS, channel conditions, for example, SNR, interference in each subband, PN property (of each port), programmed bandwidth, port mapping / layer, programming of other UEs, if CFO / Doppler shift are also present and / or other channel indicators. Examples of reasons for not following the recommendations include, but are not limited to, a UE recommendation may come into
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 36/81
31/52 conflict with the resource scheduling of other UEs by a base station, for example, the recommendation's preferred ports are not available and / or the recommended number of UE ports is less (or greater) than required for successful communications. For example, in some cases, two ports may be from different transmit-receive points (TRPs), and may require pilot PT-RS signals on each port while the recommendation by a UE suggests only PT-RS standards on one of the ports .
[0060] When choosing not to use the recommended standards, the alternative standard can also be selected based on the previously mentioned aspects including MCS, channel conditions, for example, SNR, interference in each subband, PN property (of each port) , programmed bandwidth, port / layer mapping, resource programming for other UEs, if CFO / Doppler shift are also present and / or other channel condition indicators.
[0061] When a receiving device informs about the alternative pattern, for example, from the UE to the eNB or from the eNB to the UE depending on the device that performs the initial selection, information about the difference from the alternative pattern from recommended standard (or standards) may be sufficient in some respects. The alternative confirmation / pattern signaling indication can be sent in the DCIs from the gNB to the UE. The alternative confirmation / pattern flag indication can also be sent on a front loaded control symbol (for example, DCI on a PDCCH) of a data partition that contains the
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 37/81
32/52 PT-RS pilot signal time-frequency. The indication of the confirmation signal / alternative pattern can be via CSI-RS report from the UE to the gNB. In one example, signaling can use a CSI-RS to report from the UE to the base station (gNB), for example, through a PUCCH.
[0062] In one aspect, a device (gNB / UE) can transmit PT-RS using the specific standard.
[0063] In another aspect, a device can send a request for a recommendation of PT-RS pilot signal time-frequency resources to be used. The request may result in a recommendation of PT-RS pilot signal time-frequency resources to be used being provided to the requesting device.
[0064] A first device (gNB / UE) can send a request to a second device (UE / gNB, respectively) to request recommendations for frequency standards and / or request the sending of certain information that gNB / UE may need to select the frequency domain pattern. The information may include, but is not limited to, subband band state (SNR and interference), PN information in the UE / gNB (for example, PN mask, how the PN correlates on different ports) and other information for selecting a frequency standard for PT — RS. Such a gNB request for the UE can be sent via CSI-RS / signaling to configure CSI-RS. PN information from the UE can be sent to the base station (for example, gNB). For example, PN information for the UE can be requested by the
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 38/81
33/52 base station with the use of radio resource control (RRC) signaling.
[0065] Based on the type of request, a device (UE / gNB) can send the requested information and / or selected PT-RS frequency domain standards. For example, PN information from the UE can be requested and exchanged in a capacity change period after a random access channel (RACH) procedure.
[0066] A device can send an indication of recommended standards and / or the respective priority of each of the recommended standards for the device (gNB / UE).
[0067] When the request is received by a second device and the recommended standards are indicated in the signaling, the second device (gNB / UE) can send a confirmation signal to inform the UE / GNB, respectively, which recommended standard will be used. Alternatively, the second device can choose an alternative frequency pattern for actual PT-RS transmission when the recommendation will not be followed and inform the second device about the indication of the alternative pattern.
[0068] In one aspect, one device (gNB / UE) can select the frequency domain pattern based on the requested information and inform the second device (UE / gNB) about the indication of such a pattern.
[0069] The second device (UE / gNB) can send the selected PTRS pilot signal time-frequency resources. In other words, the second device can send the first device information that
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 39/81
34/52 indicate the time-frequency resources selected for the PT-RS pilot signal (or signals) that the second device will use.
[0070] In another aspect, when the indication of the recommended standards is sent to a device (UE / gNB), the device can choose only the PT-RS standard from the indicated recommended standards and can inform the gNB / UE which recommended standard will be applied or used.
[0071] In some respects, to inform the other device about the PT-RS pilot signal pattern, an index number from a predefined pattern dictionary can be sent. The predefined dictionary can be a list of PT-RS patterns (selected PT-RS pilot signal frequency capabilities) and the index number can indicate a particular pattern or set of patterns to be used. In some examples, pattern sets can be patterns sent by the pattern using index numbers. In another aspect, a device can send the number of tones for each PT-RS pilot signal. For example, the frequencies available for a communication system can be divided into tones. Each tone can be assigned a tone number. Consequently, the tone can be identified using the assigned tone number.
[0072] Another aspect may employ a hybrid between the two approaches above. A device can send an index number from a reference standard to a predefined standard dictionary and indicate the difference between the desired standard and the reference standard whose index is sent, that is, the time-frequency resources added or subtracted from the pattern (or patterns) of
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 40/81
35/52 reference based on index number (or numbers) can be sent. For example, each index number can be added, each index number can be subtracted, one or more index numbers can be associated with a code to indicate an addition or subtraction from a base. For example, in one aspect, a reference standard may include a number of PT-RS pilot signals. A device that implements the systems and methods described in this document can transmit information to modify the reference standard by adding or excluding some number of PT-RS pilot signals from the reference standard.
[0073] In one aspect, the tones can be divided into groups, for example, resource blocks (RB) or sub-bands, and can send a group index number, for example, the RB / sub-band index . The group index number can indicate where the PT-RS pilot signal locations are within each group based on a predefined mapping of the number of indices for the PT-RS pilot signal locations.
[0074] In one example, the method for transmitting signaling information from a device (eNB / UE to eNB / UE) to indicate PT-RS standards recommended frequency domain and / or pattern priority; and / or selected PT-RS frequency patterns, the recommended or selected pattern selection can be based on aspects including MCS, channel condition including SNR and interference in each subband, PN property (of each port), width of programmed band, port / layer mapping, programming other UEs, whether CFO / Doppler shift are present and other aspects
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 41/81
36/52 of the channel, schedule or network.
[0075] In an example, the indications of the selected frequency domain patterns can be sent with a DCI, or they can be sent with the control symbols that correspond to the data partition containing the pilot signal (or signals) PT-RS .
[0076] In an example, an indication of a recommended standard and / or a standard priority can be sent by the CSI-RS report from the UE to the gNB and / or DCI from the gNB to the UE.
[0077] In one example, in order for a device to transmit signaling information from the UE / gNB to the gNB / UE to confirm acceptance of the selected frequency domain patterns and / or indicate which recommended pattern will be applied, a device can send DCI signaling from the gNB to the UE on the PDCCH.
[0078] In one example, a first device (gNB / UE) can transmit another request from the device (UE / gNB) to the first device (gNB / UE) to send a recommended one for a standard PT-pilot signal frequency domain RS and / or information required for a second device (UE / gNB) to select a frequency domain pattern for the PT-RS pilot signals. Information that may be required can also be indicated using the reference signal. For example, information can be transmitted from gNB to the UE using CSI-RS or from UE to gNB using SRS.
[0079] Figure 6 is a diagram that illustrates a
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 42/81
37/52 example of channel assignment / signaling for time-frequency resources that can be used in an OFDM communication system. As illustrated, four feature elements are used for PT-RS pilot signals. The PT-RS pilot signal time-frequency features selected may be based on signal conditions or other aspects discussed in this document. Here, an area of time-frequency resources can be selected. More or less pilot PT-RS signals may be required based on conditions, as described in this document. The example illustrated in Figure 6 includes 4 resource elements for PT-RS pilot signals. The number of PT-RS pilot signals can be increased or decreased as needed based on the operation of the communication system. For example, the number of PT-RS pilot signals can be changed based on changes in channel conditions. Changes in channel conditions can be indicated using the information sent through the signaling defined in this document.
[0080] Figure 7 is a diagram 700 that illustrates an example of SC-FDM, also called Discrete Fourier Transform Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (DFT-sOFDM). Diagram 700 includes an insert PT-RS pilot signal block 702, a serial to parallel converter (S / P) block 704, a MFT discrete Fourier DFT transform block 706 and a subcarrier mapping block 708. The insert PT-RS pilot signal block 702 receives data symbols (al, a2, a3, ...) and a PT-RS pilot sequence (bl, b2, b3,...), Which are fed serially to the block
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 43/81
38/52 S / P converter 704. The S / P converter block 704 converts the data symbols (al, a2, a3,...) And a PT-RS pilot sequence (bl, b2, b3, ...) from serials to parallels. The parallel data symbols (al, a2, a3,...) And a pilot sequence PT-RS (bl, b2, b3) are inserted in the MFT point DFT that performs an M point DFT in the parallel data symbols (al, a2, a3, ...) and a PTRS pilot sequence (bl, b2, b3, ...). The M 706 Discrete DFT Fourier Transform block emits the subcarrier mapping module 708. Consequently, as shown in Figure 7, in one example, PT-RS pilots can be inserted and multiplexed with the data symbol before the DFT operation. The multiplexed data stream can be spread with a DFT matrix and mapped to the input of an IFFT via the subcarrier mapping module 708. The stream can be converted into a time domain using an IFFT. In a DFT-s-OFDM system, the selection of PT-RS time-frequency resources can include selecting how many PT-RS pilots are used, how PT-RS pilots are inserted and, thus, multiplexed with the symbol of data and how subcarrier mapping is performed. For example, in Figure 7, PT-RS symbols can be distributed across all the other 3 data symbols.
[0081] Figure 8 is a 800 flow chart of a wireless communication method. The method can be performed by a UE (for example, UE 104, 350, the apparatus
902/902 '). In 802, the UE selects a recommendation for the feature to transmit a phase tracking reference signal based on a condition in a
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 44/81
39/52 communication. For example, the UE (for example, the UE 104, 350, apparatus 902/902 ') selects a recommendation for the resource to transmit a phase tracking reference signal based on a condition of a communication system. In one aspect, the selection can be made based on the receipt of a request for a recommendation from the second wireless communication device or the transmission of at least one of the information or the reference signal is based on a received request. Consequently, the UE can select the recommendation according to a need, for example, for the second wireless communication device, when determining the needs of the second wireless communication device, determine one or more resources to provide the need and select one among the one or more resources to recommend. The UE can select the resource to transmit a phase tracking reference signal based on a condition of a communication system when determining the conditions of the communication system, determining the resources and selecting one of the resources.
[0082] In 804, the UE performs at least one transmission of an indication of the selected recommendation for the resource to a second wireless communication device or transmission of at least one of the information or a reference signal to the second device to assist the second device to determine the resource. For example, the UE (for example, the UE 104, 350, the device
902/902 ') performs at least one transmission of an indication of the selected recommendation for the resource to a second wireless communication device or
Petition 870190064179, of 07/09/2019, p. 45/81
40/52 transmitting at least one of the information or a reference signal to the second device to assist the second device in determining the resource. For example, the UE may transmit an indication of the selected recommendation for the resource to a second wireless communication device when determining the indication to be transmitted and providing the indication for a transmission component, for example, within the UE. The UE can transmit at least one of the information or a reference signal to the second device to assist the second device in determining the resource by determining the information or a reference signal and providing the information or a reference signal to a transmission component , for example, within the UE.
[0083] In 806, the UE transmits a plurality of recommendations. For example, the UE (e.g., UE 104, 350, apparatus 902/902 ') transmits a plurality of recommendations. In one aspect, the plurality of recommendations can be transmitted in an order of priority. The order of priority can be an order of preference for recommendations. In one respect, a return transmission can indicate to the UE which of the plurality of recommendations will be followed. For example, the UE can transmit a plurality of recommendations by determining the plurality of recommendations and providing the plurality of recommendations for a transmission device, for example, within the UE.
[0084] Figure 9 is a conceptual 900 data flow diagram that illustrates the data flow between different media / components in an exemplary device

902. The device can be a UE. The apparatus includes a receiving component 904 that can receive 952 signals from a base station 950 or other wireless devices, a selection component 906 that selects a recommendation for the feature to transmit a phase tracking reference signal based on in a condition 954 of a communication system, for example, based on received signals 952, a performance component 908 that performs at least one transmission of an indication of the selected recommendation (based on a received recommendation 956) to the resource for a second wireless communication device or transmit at least one of the information or a reference signal to the second device to assist the second device in determining resource 958 and a transmission component 910 that transmits 960 signals. 960 signals may include the air transmissions of one or more of the indication of the selected recommendation, information or signal for example, as received (958) from performance component 908.
[0085] The device can include additional components that perform each of the algorithm blocks in the flowcharts previously mentioned in Figure 8. Thus, each block in the flowcharts previously mentioned in Figure 8 can be made by a component and the device can include one or more of these components. The components can be one or more hardware components specifically configured to carry out the established processes / algorithms, implemented by a processor configured to carry out the tasks.

[008 6] Figure 10 is a diagram 1000 that illustrates an example of a hardware implementation for a device 902 'that employs a 1014 processing system. The 1014 processing system can be implemented with a bus architecture, generally represented by the 1024 bus. The 1024 bus can include any number of interconnect buses and bridges depending on the specific application of the 1014 processing system and general design restrictions. The 1024 bus links several circuits that include one or more processors and / or hardware components, represented by the 1004 processor, the 904, 906, 908, 910 components and the computer / memory readable medium 1006. The 1024 bus can also link several other circuits, such as timing sources, peripherals, voltage regulators and power management circuits, which are well known in the art and therefore will not be described further.
[0087] The processing system 1014 can be coupled to a transceiver 1010. Transceiver 1010 is coupled to one or more antennas 1020. Transceiver 1010 provides a means to communicate with various devices through a transmission medium. The transceiver 1010 receives a signal from one or more antennas 1020, extracts information from the received signal, and supplies the extracted information to the processing system 1014, specifically from the receiving component 904.
