Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems, methods and apparatus for reference signal configuration. The method includes: mapping a phase tracking reference signal (PTRS) to one or more OFDM symbols based on information about a correspondence between the PTRS and one or more of a modulation and coding scheme (MCS), a subcarrier spacing, and a bandwidth (BW); and sending the one or more OFDM symbols to which the PTRS is mapped to a receive device. In the embodiments of the present invention, a correspondence between the PTRS and the subcarrier spacing or the modulation and coding scheme or the bandwidth is used to implicitly indicate a time-frequency location of the PTRS. In comparison with the prior art, no explicit indication is required, and signaling overheads are reduced.

Claim (Index 1):
A reference signal configuration method, comprising:\n mapping a phase tracking reference signal (PTRS) to one or more orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols based on correspondence information between the PTRS and one or more parameters, wherein the one or more parameters comprise at least one of a modulation and coding scheme (MCS), a subcarrier spacing, or a scheduling bandwidth (BW); and sending the one or more OFDM symbols to which the PTRS is mapped to a receive device.
