Abstract
Various embodiments herein provide techniques for improving coverage for a physical random access channel (PRACH). Additionally, embodiments provide techniques for repetition of a channel state information (CSI) report on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) for coverage enhancement. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
Claims20
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media (NTCRM) having instructions, stored thereon, that when executed by one or more processors of a user equipment (UE) cause the UE to:
- receive configuration information to configure repetitions of a channel state information (CSI) report on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein the CSI report includes an aperiodic CSI (A-CSI) report or a semi-persistent CSI (SP-CSI) report;
- receive a DCI to trigger the A-CSI report or activate the SP-CSI report;
- and
- encode, for transmission on the PUSCH, the CSI report with repetitions based on the configuration information and the DCI.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media (NTCRM) having instructions, stored thereon, that when executed by one or more processors of a next generation Node B (gNB) cause the gNB to:
- encode, for transmission to a user equipment (UE), configuration information to configure repetitions of a channel state information (CSI) report on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein the CSI report includes an aperiodic CSI (A-CSI) report or a semi-persistent CSI (SP-CSI) report;
- encode, for transmission to the UE, a DCI to trigger the A-CSI report or activate the SP-CSI report;
- and
- receive, from the UE on the PUSCH, the CSI report with repetitions based on the configuration information and the DCI.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media (NTCRM) having instructions, stored thereon, that when executed by one or more processors of a user equipment (UE) cause the UE to:
- receive, from a gNodeB (gNB), configuration information to indicate a repetition window for a physical random access channel (PRACH), wherein the repetition window includes a plurality of PRACH occasions;
- and
- encode a PRACH message for transmission with repetition in the respective PRACH occasions.
