Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 8:
9. A network node comprising:
processing circuitry configured to:
determine a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) resource element (RE) mapping for a plurality of aperiodic zero power reference signal (ZP-RS) resources; and

transmitter circuitry in communication with the processing circuitry, the transmitter circuitry configured to:
transmit to a first wireless device (WD) configured to operate according to a first radio access technology (RAT), a first indication of a rate matching resource configuration of first aperiodic ZP-RS resources of the plurality of aperiodic ZP-RS resources to be used for physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) rate matching of Long Term Evolution (LTE) signals, the rate matching resource configuration being based at least in part on which TRP transmits a PDSCH and which resource elements (REs) are occupied by reference signals in at least one slot of the PDSCH; and

rate match around the first aperiodic ZP-RS resources for PDSCH rate matching of New Radio (NR) signal.
