Using spatial differences between transmitter receiver points (TRPs) to obtain extra diversity gains

A base station for wireless communications, the base station comprising:

• a transceiver;
• and
• a processor, wherein the transceiver and the processor are configured to:
• transmit a first signaling,
• receive a first signal in a first time pool and
• receive a second signal in a second time pool,
• wherein the first signaling is used to determine K time windows, and wherein K is a positive integer greater than 1, and
• wherein the first signal and the second signal both carry a first bit block, and wherein the first signaling is used to determine a first reference signal and a second reference signal, and
• wherein the first time pool comprises one or more multicarrier symbols in a first time window of K time windows and the second time pool comprises one or more multicarrier symbols in a second time window of the K time windows, and
• wherein the first time window and the second time window are adjacent, the first time window and the second time window are respectively associated with the first reference signal and the second reference signal, and
• wherein whether a first condition set is satisfied is used to determine at least one of:
• whether the first time pool comprises all multicarrier symbols in the first time window;
• or
• whether the second time pool comprises all multicarrier symbols in the second time window.

A method in a user equipment (UE) for wireless communications, comprising:

• receiving a first signaling;
• and
• determining, based on the first signaling, a first reference signal and a second reference signal,
• determining K time windows based on the first signaling, wherein K is a positive integer greater than 1,
• determining a first time pool comprising one or more multicarrier symbols in a first time window of the K time windows, and a second time pool comprising one or more multicarrier symbols in a second time window of the K time windows, and wherein a first time window and a second time window are adjacent, and wherein the first time window and the second time window are respectively associated with the first reference signal and the second reference signal, and
• determine, based on whether a first condition set is satisfied, at least one of:
• whether the first time pool comprises all multicarrier symbols in the first time window, or
• whether the second time pool comprises all multicarrier symbols in the second time window, and
• transmitting a first signal in the first time pool and a second signal in the second time pool, wherein the first signal and the second signal both carry a first bit block.
