Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may identify one or more multi-panel capabilities for multi-panel operation of a plurality of panels associated with the UE. The UE may transmit, to a base station (BS), an indication of the one or more multi-panel capabilities. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Claims26
A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
- identifying one or more multi-panel capabilities for multi-panel operation of a plurality of panels associated with the UE, wherein the one or more multi-panel capabilities comprise:
- a time duration for switching between active panels, of the plurality of panels, that are scheduled for back-to-back transmission;
- transmitting, to a base station (BS), an indication of the one or more multi-panel capabilities;
- and
- receiving, from the BS, an indication of a quantity of symbols between respective transmissions associated with the active panels.
A method of wireless communication performed by a base station (BS), comprising:
- receiving, from a user equipment (UE), an indication of one or more multi-panel capabilities for multi-panel operation of a plurality of panels associated with the UE, wherein the one or more multi-panel capabilities comprise:
- a time duration for switching between active panels, of the plurality of panels, that are scheduled for back-to-back transmission;
- and
- transmitting, to the UE and based at least in part on the one or more multi-panel capabilities, a scheduling configuration for multi-panel operation of the plurality of panels,
- wherein the scheduling configuration comprises:
- an indication of a quantity of symbols between respective transmissions associated with the active panels.
A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors operatively coupled to the memory, the memory and the one or more processors configured to:
- identify one or more multi-panel capabilities for multi-panel operation of a plurality of panels associated with the UE, wherein the one or more multi-panel capabilities comprise:
- a time duration for switching between active panels, of the plurality of panels, that are scheduled for back-to-back transmission;
- transmit, to a base station (BS), an indication of the one or more multi-panel capabilities;
- and
- receive, from the BS, an indication of a quantity of symbols between respective transmissions associated with the active panels.
A base station (BS) for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors operatively coupled to the memory, the memory and the one or more processors configured to:
- receive, from a user equipment (UE), an indication of one or more multi-panel capabilities for multi-panel operation of a plurality of panels associated with the UE wherein the one or more multi-panel capabilities comprise:
- a time duration for switching between active panels, of the plurality of panels, that are scheduled for back-to-back transmission;
- and
- transmit, to the UE and based at least in part on the one or more multi-panel capabilities, a scheduling configuration for multi-panel operation of the plurality of panels,
- wherein the scheduling configuration comprises:
- an indication of a quantity of symbols between respective transmissions associated with the active panels.
