Patent ID: 10172077

Abstract:
Techniques are described for wireless communication. A first method includes receiving a first orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol including a plurality of reference signals (RSs) over a radio frequency spectrum band. The first method may also include receiving a second OFDM symbol including a first synchronization signal over the radio frequency spectrum band. A second method includes transmitting a first OFDM symbol including a plurality of RSs over an radio frequency spectrum band. The second method may also include transmitting a second OFDM symbol including a first synchronization signal over the radio frequency spectrum band. In each method, a first portion of the first OFDM symbol includes a higher density of the RSs than a remaining portion of the first OFDM symbol, and when included, the second OFDM symbol may be adjacent in time to the first OFDM symbol.
