Patent number: 11991765Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. The described techniques relate to improved methods, systems, devices, or apparatuses that support a 20 MHz station (STA) parked on a secondary channel. Without the described techniques, mechanisms to support secondary channel operation may be unable to receive management frames or broadcast traffic from an access point (AP), which may cause the STA to lose synchronization with the AP, miss a channel change or other critical announcement from the AP, etc. Considerations for providing such information to STAs parked on a secondary channel are discussed.

Patent number: 11924852Abstract: A system and method for providing both localized and distributed transmission modes for EPDCCH is disclosed, where one EPDCCH comprises of one or multiple CCEs. Localized versus distributed transmission may be defined in terms of the EPDCCH to CCE resource mapping. In a localized transmission CCEs are restricted to be contained within one PRB. In a distributed transmission a CCE spans over multiple PRBs. A UE can be configured to either receive the EPDCCH only in localized or only in distributed transmissions. A UE can also be configured to expect EPDCCH transmissions in both localized and distributed transmissions. In each PRB configured by the higher layer as an EPDCCH resource, 24 REs that may be used for any DMRS transmission are always reserved and not used for EPDCCH transmission.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INCORPORATEDInventors: Runhua Chen, Ralf Matthias Bendlin

Patent number: 11924101Abstract: A network device is provided. The network device includes one or more memories and one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories. The one or more processors are configured receive a DL MU PPDU, decode a data frame including a media access control (MAC) header from the DL MU PPDU, determine whether an acknowledgement (ACK) policy indicated in the MAC header signals a trigger-based immediate acknowledgement policy, and determine whether a trigger indication for an uplink (UL) MU transmission has been obtained from a payload of a data frame. Responsive to the processor determines that the trigger indication has not been obtained, the processor is configured to not transmit an immediate acknowledgement to the access point. In response to the trigger indication has not been obtained but the station has obtained a transmission opportunity, the station returns an ACK/Block ACK frame in an unsolicited manner.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Atlas Global Technologies LLCInventor: Yongho Seok

Method for transmitting and receiving data in a wireless communication system and apparatus therefor
Patent number: 11917647Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method and a device for transmitting and receiving uplink data in a wireless communication system. According to the present disclosure, a UE may transmit to a base station information related to a capability of the UE and the information may include a subset including at least one transmit precoding matrix indicator (TPMI) supported by the UE. The UE may receive Downlink Control Information (DCI) for transmitting the uplink data from the base station and the DCI may include a TPMI used for the UE to transmit the uplink data. Thereafter, the UE may transmit to the base station the uplink data by using transmission power determined based on the TPMI and the transmission power may be determined according to whether the TPMI is included in the at least one TPMI.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2023Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: LG Electronics Inc.Inventors: Haewook Park, Jiwon Kang, Jonghyun Park, Kijun Kim, Sukhyon Yoon -

A method for a user equipment (UE) to receive physical downlink control channels (PDCCHs) includes determining a prioritization for receiving the PDCCHs and receiving the PDCCHs based on the prioritization. PDCCH receptions for a first search space set (SSS) are prioritized over PDCCH receptions for a second SSS or a third SSS. The PDCCH receptions for the second SSS are prioritized over the PDCCH receptions for the third SSS based on a configuration. The PDCCH receptions for the first SSS include a first downlink control information (DCI) format. The PDCCH receptions for the second SSS include a second DCI format that schedules a groupcast physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) reception. The PDCCH receptions for the third SSS include a third DCI format that schedules a unicast PDSCH reception.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 2021Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventor: Aris Papasakellariou
