Techniques for mitigating interference for transmissions of a periodic multi-beam discovery reference signal

Abstract:

Techniques are described for wireless communication. One method for wireless communication at a base station includes transmitting, on a plurality of beams, a discovery reference signal (DRS) in a first instance of a periodic multi-beam DRS. The first instance of the periodic multi-beam DRS may include the plurality of beams arranged in a first temporal order. The method may also include transmitting, on the plurality of beams, the DRS in a second instance of the periodic multi-beam DRS. The second instance of the periodic multi-beam DRS may include the plurality of beams arranged in a second temporal order that is different from the first temporal order. The method may further include performing at least one random access procedure with at least one user equipment (UE) based at least in part on the periodic multi-beam DRS.
