Abstract

Methods, systems and devices for transmission link configuration using reference signal mapping in next generation cellular networks are described. An example method for wireless communication, based on the disclosed technology, includes transmitting data over at least one transmission link that is configured based on a mapping between two reference signals, each of which is configured with different subsets of one or more network parameters. Another example method includes dividing a plurality of SRS (sounding reference signal) resource sets into a plurality of groups based on network parameters of SRS resources or SRS resource sets, and transmitting, within one of the plurality of groups, only one SRS resource in each of multiple SRS resource sets at an identical time, where the SRS resources in different SRS resource sets can be transmitted simultaneously. The methods described may include beam management implementations for wireless communications.

Claims (20)

1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:

determining that sounding reference signal, SRS, resources are divided into a plurality of groups based on network parameters of the SRS resources, wherein the network parameters comprise at least a time-domain communication type, or a bandwidth part (BWP) parameter; and

performing a transmission using at least one SRS resource selected from the SRS resources, wherein only one SRS resource in each of the plurality of groups is used at any given time for the transmission, and wherein SRS resources in different groups associated with same time-domain communication type and BWP parameter are transmitted simultaneously.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the time-domain communication type comprises semi-persistent, periodic and aperiodic.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of SRS resources is divided for beam management.

4. A method for wireless communication, comprising:

dividing sounding reference signal, SRS, resources into a plurality of groups based on network parameters of the SRS resources, wherein the network parameters comprise at least a time-domain communication type, or a bandwidth part (BWP) parameter; and

receiving a transmission on at least one SRS resource selected from the SRS resources, wherein only one SRS resource in each of the plurality of groups is used at any given time for the transmission, and wherein SRS resources in different groups associated with same time-domain communication type and BWP parameter are received simultaneously.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the time-domain communication type comprises semi-persistent, periodic and aperiodic.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the plurality of SRS resources is divided for beam management.

7. A wireless communications apparatus comprising a processor configured to:

determine that sounding reference signal, SRS, resources are divided into a plurality of groups based on network parameters of the SRS resources, wherein the network parameters comprise at least a time-domain communication type, or a bandwidth part (BWP) parameter; and

perform a transmission using at least one SRS resource selected from the SRS resources, wherein only one SRS resource in each of the plurality of groups is used at any given time for the transmission, and wherein SRS resource in different groups associated with same time-domain communication type and BWP parameter are transmitted simultaneously.

8. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the time-domain communication type comprises semi-persistent, periodic and aperiodic.

9. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the plurality of SRS resources is divided for beam management.

10. A wireless communications apparatus comprising a processor configured to:

divide sounding reference signal, SRS, resources into a plurality of groups based on network parameters of the SRS resources, wherein the network parameters comprise at least a time-domain communication type, or a bandwidth part (BWP) parameter; and

receive a transmission on at least one SRS resource selected from the SRS resources, wherein only one SRS resource in each of the plurality of groups is used at any given time for the transmission, and wherein SRS resources in different groups associated with same time-domain communication type and BWP parameter are received simultaneously.

11. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the time-domain communication type comprises semi-persistent, periodic and aperiodic.

12. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of SRS resources is divided for beam management.
