Wireless Device Power Saving for Multi-TRP Transmissions

Abstract:

Apparatuses, systems, and methods for performing multi-TRP transmissions using techniques for reducing wireless device power consumption. A wireless device may select a downlink signal buffering method for a communication slot. The downlink signal buffering method may be selected from a single antenna panel signal buffering method or a multi-antenna panel signal buffering method. One or more beams for which to perform downlink signal buffering for the communication slot may be selected based at least in part on the downlink signal buffering method selected. Downlink signals may be received from one or more cellular base stations during the communication slot using the selected one or more beams. The downlink signals received using the selected one or more beams may be buffered by the wireless device.
