Systems and Methods for Phase Noise Tracking Reference Signal Sequence Generation Using Demodulation Reference Signals

Abstract:

A user equipment (910) is provided for use in a cellular network. The user equipment includes a transceiver (1010), a processor (1020), and a memory (1030). The user equipment (910) is configured to determine, for a data transmission, a mapping form a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) to a PNT-RS. A DMRS resulting signal is generated from a subset of DMRS for a first resource element in a subcarrier. The DMRS resulting signal is copied from the first resource element to a second resource element assigned to the PNT-RS in the subcarrier. The data transmission is transmitted using the DMRS resulting signal and the PNT-RS.
