Systems and methods for reference signal measurements in wireless systems
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are disclosed for receiving downlink control information (DCI) that may include an indication of a reference measurement resource (RMR), receiving an indication of a measurement configuration, and receiving an indication of a feedback resource configuration. A measurement report based on the indication of an RMR, an indication of a measurement configuration, and an indication of a feedback resource configuration may be generated and may be transmitted to a network device.
1. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) comprising:
a processor and a memory, the processor and memory configured to:
send a request for reference measurement resources for measuring reference signals, wherein the request comprises one or more parameters associated with the reference measurement resources, wherein the one or more parameters comprise an identifier associated with a reference measurement resource configuration;
receive a response to the request; and
send a measurement report based on received reference signals.
2. The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the one or more parameters comprises a reference measurement resource periodicity, a reference measurement resource frequency subband, a reference measurement resource element mapping, beam information, or a time period associated with the start time or duration of the reference signal.
3. The WTRU of claim 2 , wherein the reference measurement resource element mapping comprises mapping a set of resource elements (RE) in one or more symbols and one or more subcarriers.
4. The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the processor and memory are further configured to:
support an on-demand reference signal request mechanism.
5. The WTRU of claim 4 , wherein the one or more parameters comprises a procedure for performing the on-demand reference signal request mechanism, desired accuracy, or speed estimation.
6. The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the reference measurement resource comprises one or both of a non-zero power reference signal or a zero-power reference signal.
7. The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the beam information comprises an indication that a plurality of reference measurement resource are multiplexed in overlapping resources using different beams.
8. The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the reference signals are positioning reference signals.
9. The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the response to the request indicates the received reference signals.
10. The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the received reference signals are indicated by the reference measurement resource configuration.
11. A method implemented in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), the method comprising:
sending a request for reference measurement resources for measuring reference signals, wherein the request comprises one or more parameters associated with the reference measurement resources, wherein the one or more parameters comprise an identifier (ID) associated with a reference measurement resource configuration;
receiving a response to the request; and
sending a measurement report based on received reference signals.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the one or more parameters comprises a reference measurement resource periodicity, a reference measurement resource frequency subband, a reference measurement resource element mapping, beam information, or a time period associated with the start time or duration of the reference signal.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the reference measurement resource element mapping comprises mapping a set of resource elements (RE) in one or more symbols and one or more subcarriers.
14. The method of claim 11 , the method further comprising:
supporting an on-demand request mechanism.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the one or more parameters comprises a procedure for performing the on-demand reference signal request mechanism, desired accuracy, or speed estimation.
16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the reference measurement resource comprises one or both of a non-zero power reference signal or a zero-power reference signal.
17. The method of claim 11 , wherein the beam information comprises an indication that a plurality of reference measurement resources are multiplexed in overlapping resources using different beams.
18. The method of claim 11 , wherein the reference signals are positioning reference signals.
19. The method of claim 11 , wherein the response to the request comprises indicates the received reference signals.
20. The method of claim 11 , wherein the received reference signals are indicated by the reference measurement resource configuration.
