Patent ID: 11129182

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some cases, multiple timing advances (TAs) may be configured for non-coherent joint transmission (NCJT) with respective transmit receive points (TRPs). For example, a NCJT mode may have multiple TAs semi-statically configured for the UE to follow for each TRP. In some cases, a TA index corresponding to a TA for a TRP may be added as a field to a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource definition (e.g., SRS resource configuration). Additionally or alternatively, the TA index may be determined from an SRS index transmitted by the TRP, where the TA index corresponds to a TA for uplink information in a physical uplink shared channel. Additionally or alternatively, the TA index may be included as a field in a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) definition to indicate a TA for a corresponding PUCCH that the UE transmits to the TRP.
