Abstract

A RL agent performs a RL process to configure at least one Discontinuous Reception, DRX, cycle for a User Equipment, UE. An action is selected by the RL agent in an action space. Each action in the action space corresponds to a DRX cycle configuration. The RL agent sends to the UE indication to use the DRX cycle configuration corresponding to the selected action. The RL agent receives state information computed over at least one DRX cycle configured based on a DRX cycle configuration indicated by the RL agent. The RL agent computes a reward on the basis of the state information.

Physical random access channel (PRACH) radio receiver devices and related methods and computer programs are disclosed. An uplink (UL) synchronization signal is received at a radio receiver device. The UL synchronization signal comprises a PRACH preamble. The PRACH preamble comprises a preamble sequence set. The radio receiver device extracts the preamble sequence set. The radio receiver device applies a neural network (NN) to the extracted preamble sequence set to determine a physical root sequence index, an associated cyclic shift value, and/or a timing offset value, for at least one preamble sequence instance in the extracted preamble sequence set. The radio receiver device further applies the NN to output at least one of the determined physical root sequence index, the associated cyclic shift value, and/or the timing offset value, for the at least one preamble sequence instance in the extracted preamble sequence set.

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a technique for enhancing Downlink (DL) Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) reception for co-scheduled UEs by performing inter-user inference cancellation based on properly generated Downlink Control Information (DCI) More specifically, the DCI is generated and transmitted by a network node to a target UE in response to UE-related information that indicates that the target UE is configured for the DL MU-MIMO reception together with other co-scheduled UEs. The DCI indicates at least one group of co-scheduled UEs served by the network node for the DL MU-MIMO reception, and further indicates a modulation scheme and/or a Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS) initialization value for each of the at least one group of co-scheduled UEs. By using the DCI, the target UE may efficiently implement the DL MU-MIMO reception together with the co- scheduled UEs.

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to techniques that enable an efficient Radio Link Monitoring (RLM) for a User Equipment (UE) in a multi Transmitter Receiver Point (mTRP) scenario. For this purpose, a serving cell of a serving Distributed Unit (DU) of a disaggregated network node and at least one non-serving (or stand-by) cell of a non-serving DU of the disaggregated network node are configured fora UE. Then, the UE is informed of beams used for the serving and non-serving cells. The UE performs the RLM over the serving cell by using the beams of the serving cell. Whenever there is an Radio Link (RL) quality degradation (which may potentially lead to an RL Failure (RLF)) detected in the serving cell, the UE may initiate switching of the RLM from the serving cell to one of the non-serving cells by transmitting a corresponding request to the serving DU.
