Device and method for handling a sounding reference signal transmission
A communication device for handling a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission comprises at least one storage device; and at least one processing circuit, coupled to the at least one storage device. The at least one storage device stores instructions, and the at least one processing circuit is configured to execute the instructions of: determining at least one uplink (UL) beamforming weight of at least one SRS according to at least one of a first channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) or a second CSI-RS, wherein the first CSI-RS is for determining the at least one UL beamforming weight and the second CSI-RS is for a channel interference measurement for the at least one SRS; and transmitting the at least one SRS with the at least one UL beamforming weight to a network according to a beamforming.
1. A communication device for handling a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission, comprising:
at least one storage device; and
at least one processing circuit, coupled to the at least one storage device, wherein the at least one storage device stores instructions, and the at least one processing circuit is configured to execute the instructions of:
determining at least one uplink (UL) beamforming weight of at least one SRS according to a first channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) and a second CSI-RS, wherein the first CSI-RS is for determining the at least one UL beamforming weight and the second CSI-RS is for a channel interference suppression for the at least one SRS; and
transmitting the at least one SRS with the at least one UL beamforming weight to a network according to a beamforming,
wherein the at least one SRS is suppressed according to the at least one UL beamforming weight.
2. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one of SRS is configured by a SRS configuration received from the network, and the SRS configuration comprises the at least one of the first CSI-RS or the second CSI-RS.
3. The communication device of claim 2 , wherein the SRS configuration comprises a plurality of trigger states.
4. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions comprise:
receiving the at least one of the first CSI-RS or the second CSI-RS according to a UL RS request related configuration, from the network.
5. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one SRS is determined according to a signaling indicating one of a plurality of trigger states.
6. The communication device of claim 5 , wherein the plurality of trigger states comprises at least one of no SRS transmission, determining the at least one UL beamforming weight according to the first CSI-RS, or determining the at least one UL beamforming weight according to the first CSI-RS and the second CSI-RS.
7. The communication device of claim 5 , wherein the signaling is a SRS request in a UL grant downlink (DL) control information (DCI).
8. The communication device of claim 7 , wherein the instructions comprise:
performing a UL transmission to the network according to the UL grant DCI.
9. The communication device of claim 8 , wherein the UL transmission comprises at least one of a physical UL control channel (PUCCH) or a physical UL shared channel (PUSCH).
10. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one SRS is at least one periodic SRS or at least one aperiodic SRS.
11. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the first CSI-RS or the second CSI-RS is selected by a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE).
