Reference signal acquisition

Abstract:

Various aspects of the disclosure relate to techniques associated with the acquisition of reference signals. In some aspects, a network may request a user equipment (UE) to measure a timing difference between neighbor cells and use that information to generate a CSI-RS configuration. The network sends the CSI-RS configuration to the UE to enable the UE to acquire a CSI-RS from a neighbor cell. In some aspects, a network may send timing-related information to a neighbor cell and the neighbor cell uses that information to transmit a CSI-RS.
