Abstract

A group of wireless devices may use shared resources to communicate information to a base station. At least one configuration parameter (e.g., Quality of Service (QoS) parameter(s)) associated with over-the-air computation may be used for group uplink transmissions. Data associated with the group of wireless devices may be determined, based on an aggregation of the group uplink transmissions. The data associated with the group of wireless devices may be provided to a network node using the configuration parameter(s).

Claims (66)

1 . A method comprising:

transmitting, by a base station and to a plurality of wireless devices, at least one configuration parameter that indicates a shared resource and that is based on a quality of service (QoS) for group uplink transmission; and

receiving, via the shared resource, an aggregated signal indicating data from at least two wireless devices of the plurality of wireless device.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from a core network, one or more second configuration parameters indicating the QoS for the group uplink transmission.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the QoS for the group uplink transmission comprises at least one of:

a mean squared error;

a signal-to-noise ratio; or

a quality of computation error.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

processing the aggregated signal by performing an over-the-air computation using a function, and wherein the function comprises at least one of:

an arithmetic mean;

a geometric mean;

a Euclidean norm; or

a linear regression.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the data indicates sensor measurement of at least one of: a temperature, a pressure, a position, a force, an acceleration, a vibration, a fluid, a humidity, a gas, or a light.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the group uplink transmission is a multipoint to point transmission.

7 . A method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless device, at least one configuration parameter that indicates a shared resource and that is based on a quality of service (QoS) for group uplink transmission; and

transmitting, via the shared resource, data using a first signal for aggregation with at least one second signal of a group uplink transmission.

8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the QoS for the group uplink transmission comprises at least one of:

a mean squared error;

a signal-to-noise ratio; or

a quality of computation error.

9 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the first signal is configured for aggregation, with the at least one second signal, into a third signal that is configured to be processed by an over-the-air computation using a function, and wherein the function comprises at least one of:

an arithmetic mean;

a geometric mean;

a Euclidean norm; or

a linear regression.

10 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the data indicates sensor measurement of at least one of: a temperature, a pressure, a position, a force, an acceleration, a vibration, a fluid, a humidity, a gas, or a light.

11 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the group uplink transmission is a multipoint to point transmission.

12 . A base station comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the base station to:

transmit, to a plurality of wireless devices, at least one configuration parameter that indicates a shared resource and that is based on a quality of service (QoS) for group uplink transmission; and

receive, via the shared resource, an aggregated signal indicating data from at least two wireless devices of the plurality of wireless devices.

13 . The base station of claim 12 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further configure the base station to:

receive, from a core network, one or more second configuration parameters indicating the QoS for the group uplink transmission.

14 . The base station of claim 12 , wherein the QoS for the group uplink transmission comprises at least one of:

a mean squared error;

a quality of computation error.

15 . The base station of claim 12 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further configure the base station to:

process the aggregated signal by performing an over-the-air computation using a function, and wherein the function comprises at least one of:

an arithmetic mean;

a geometric mean;

a Euclidean norm; or

a linear regression.

16 . The base station of claim 12 , wherein the data indicates sensor measurement of at least one of: a temperature, a pressure, a position, a force, an acceleration, a vibration, a fluid, a humidity, a gas, or a light.

17 . The base station of claim 12 , wherein the group uplink transmission is a multipoint to point transmission.

18 . A wireless device comprising:
