Abstract:
Reference signal and transmitter (Tx)/receiver (Rx) precoding for user equipment (UE) multiplexing in new radio (NR) shared spectrum networks is discussed. In certain reference signals, a base station may schedule multiple UEs for transmission of uplink reference signals within an identified subframe. The base station may transmit a reference signal configuration message, wherein the reference signal configuration message includes a transmission sequence identifier identifying a multiplexing for antenna ports assigned for transmission of the uplink reference signals. The multiplexing may be one or both of frequency divisional multiplexing (FDM) and time division multiplexing (TDM) over the identified subframe. Additional reference signals, transmit precoders may be identified by the base station based on channel inversion calculations of the channel matrix determined based on uplink reference signals.

Claim (Index 16):
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having program code recorded thereon, the program code comprising: program code executable by a computer for causing the computer to schedule, by a base station, a plurality of user equipments (UEs) for transmission of one or more uplink reference signals within an identified subframe;\n program code executable by the computer for causing the computer to transmit, by the base station, a reference signal configuration message, wherein the reference signal configuration message includes a transmission sequence identifier identifying a multiplexing for one or more antenna ports assigned for transmission of the one or more uplink reference signals by the plurality of UEs, and wherein the multiplexing is one or both of frequency divisional multiplexing (FDM) and time division multiplexing (TDM) over the identified subframe; program code executable by the computer for causing the computer to signal, by the base station, a virtual cell identifier (ID) to each of the plurality of UEs identifying an associated cell group assigned to each of the plurality of UEs, wherein the associated cell group is served by a combination of the base station and one or more neighbor base stations; and program code executable by the computer for causing the computer to receive, at the base station, a plurality of uplink reference signals in the identified subframe from one or more of the plurality of UEs, wherein the plurality of uplink reference signals are identified according to the virtual cell ID and the program code executable by the computer for causing the computer to schedule.
