Abstract
The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to provide repetition of system information block type 1 in a plurality of slots.
Claims21
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media having instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause a next generation NodeB (gNB) to:
- determine a number of slots in which to repeat a system information block type 1 (SIB 1) transmission to be coherently combined;
- transmit, to a user equipment (UE), an indication of the number of slots in which the SIB1 transmission is to be repeated and coherently combined;
- and
- transmit, to the UE, the SIB1 transmission in each of one or more slots equal to the number of slots.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media having instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause a user equipment (UE) to:
- identify an indication of a number of slots in which a system information block type 1 (SIB1) is to be repeated;
- identify received slots including the SIB1 based on the indication of the number of slots;
- and
- coherently combine one or more of the received slots to determine information included in the SIB1.
A next generation NodeB (gNB) comprising:
- a memory to store indications of control resource set (CORESET) 0 transmission slots;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the memory to:
- derive CORESET 0 transmission slots for system information block type 1 (SIB1) transmissions with a number of slots per synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel block (SSB) being greater than 2 to be stored as an indication of the CORESET transmission slots 0 in the memory;
- and
- transmit, to a UE, the indication of the CORESET 0 transmission slots via a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmission.
