Application: Beam discovery operation for uplink transmission beam discovery associated with uplink-only network nodes (Patent ID: US20240107425A1)
Qualcomm Inc. has filed a patent related to wireless communication, focusing on beam discovery in uplink-only network nodes. The user equipment (UE) receives beam discovery configuration information to identify a valid uplink beam and transmits beam discovery signals using a pool of resources. The UE can transmit multiple signals using different transmission beams, with quasi co-located or non-co-located transmission resources. The signals can include sounding reference signals (SRS) or physical random access channel (PRACH) signals, and power control information can be used for transmission.
The patent also covers the reception of beam discovery signals by the uplink-only network node and the transmission of beam discovery configuration information by a network node to UEs. The network node can receive beam discovery reports indicating the association between detected signals and UEs. Additionally, a method for wireless communication by a UE involves receiving beam discovery configuration information and transmitting beam discovery signals based on this information. The signals convey beam discovery information, including UE identification and transmission beam details, facilitating efficient beam discovery in wireless communication systems.
