Application: System and method for phase tracking reference signal dynamic presence in ultra-reliable and low-latency and port indication (Patent ID: US20240214109A1)
The patent filed by Apple Inc. describes a user equipment wireless communication device that can determine the presence of a phase tracking reference signal based on a received radio network temporary ID. The device can then select the appropriate phase tracking reference signal antenna ports to be used for wireless communications based on values of the transmitted precoding matrix indicator value and the transmit rank indicator.
The claims associated with the patent detail the specific configurations and functionalities of the device, such as determining the presence of a phase tracking reference signal based on certain radio network temporary IDs, selecting the number of phase tracking reference signal antenna ports to be used, determining whether to use codebook or non-codebook based transmission, and setting the number of antenna ports based on the values of the transmitted precoding matrix indicator and transmit rank indicator. The patent also covers methods for identifying phase tracking reference signal antenna ports in a wireless communication device, including selecting a modulation and coding scheme table based on the presence of the phase tracking reference signal and determining the number of antenna ports to be used based on specific criteria.
