Patent ID: 10506574

Abstract:
Various improvements are desired for point-to-multipoint (PTM) transmission, where a network sends the PTM transmission to multiple user equipments (UEs). The apparatus may be an UE. The UE receives, from a network, a downlink transmission configuration indicating a transmit diversity downlink transmission mode of a plurality of downlink transmission modes, configures downlink communication based on the transmit diversity downlink transmission mode according to the downlink transmission configuration, and receives a service via PTM downlink transmission based on the transmit diversity transmission mode. In another aspect, The UE receives, from a network, a downlink transmission configuration indicating one of a plurality of downlink transmission modes, configures downlink communication based on the one of the plurality of downlink transmission modes according to the downlink transmission configuration, and receives a service via PTM transmission based on the one of the plurality of downlink transmission modes that corresponds with the service.
