Abstract
A system and method for transmission indications are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the system and method are configured to allocate, by a wireless communication node, a time gap for a wireless communication device to monitor a synchronization-assistance signal, wherein the time gap is periodically or aperiodically allocated along a time-domain. In an alternate embodiment, the system and method are configured to receive a synchronization-assistance signal during a time gap, wherein the time gap is periodically or aperiodically inserted along a time-domain according to a wireless communication node.
Claims19
A wireless communication method, comprising:
- allocating, by a wireless communication node, a time gap for a wireless communication device to monitor a synchronization-assistance signal comprising a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal;
- and
- transmitting, by the wireless communication node to the wireless communication device, a downlink message indicating the time gap for the wireless communication device to monitor the synchronization-assistance signal,
- wherein the time gap for the wireless communication device to monitor the synchronization-assistance signal is to occur between a first transmission or reception (TX/RX) and a second TX/RX of the wireless communication device.
A wireless communication node, comprising:
- at least one processor configured to:
- allocate a time gap for a wireless communication device to monitor a synchronization-assistance signal comprising a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal;
- and
- transmit, to the wireless communication device, a downlink message indicating the time gap for the wireless communication device to monitor the synchronization-assistance signal,
- wherein the time gap for the wireless communication device to monitor the synchronization-assistance signal is to occur between a first transmission or reception TX/RX) and a second TX/RX of the wireless communication device.
A wireless communication method, comprising:
- receiving, by a wireless communication device, a synchronization-assistance signal comprising a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal during a time gap for the wireless communication device to monitor the synchronization-assistance signal,
- wherein the time gap for the wireless communication device to monitor the synchronization-assistance signal is to occur between a first transmission or reception (TX/RX) and a second TX/RX of the wireless communication device.
A wireless communication device, comprising:
- at least one processor configured to:
- receive, via a receiver, a synchronization-assistance signal comprising a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal during a time gap for the wireless communication device to monitor the synchronization-assistance signal,
- wherein the time gap for the wireless communication device to monitor the synchronization-assistance signal is to occur between a first transmission or reception (TX/RX) and a second TX/RX of the wireless communication device.
