The present disclosure relates to a network device, in particular a User Equipment (UE) or a base station (BS), of a group of network devices involved in a cooperative passive positioning (CPP) operation comprising at least two network devices for detecting and positioning at least one target object. One example network device is configured to apply an operation mode from one or more of: initiating network device for initiating a CPP measurement, transmitting network device for transmitting a radio signal to scan for an environment of the network device, receiving network device for receiving a reflection signal based on a reflection of the radio signal from the at least one target object, and data fusion network device for detecting and positioning the at least one target object based on at least one of the reflection signal or a Line-of-Sight (LOS) signal.

Techniques for cooperative passive positioning

The present application relates to wireless communications suitable for smart manufacturing and industrial automation. In particular, the application proposes a wireless communication device (UE) and a network device (BS), in particular suitable for cyclic communication. The BS is configured to provide a first information defining a hopping sequence to a UE, and to provide a second information to the UE defining when the hopping sequence should be repeated, in particular periodically repeated. The UE is accordingly configured to receive the first information from the BS, and to receive the second information from the BS. The hopping sequence specifies at least two spatial resources and/or at least two radio resources, which the UE is configured to use for transmissions to and/or from the BS.

Network device and wireless communication device for cyclic communication

A base station configured to operate in accordance with a periodically repeated synchronization period is provided. The synchronization period comprises a plurality of successive pilot slots, the pilot slots being associated with groups of base stations in a one-to-one relationship. The base station is configured to be a member of a first group among the groups of base stations and to transmit, in each repetition of the synchronization period, one or more pilot signals in the pilot slot associated with the first group.

Cell search of user equipment in accordance with cell search slots associated with groups of base stations

A processing device in a transmit-receive point for interference-aware beam pair selection, a transmit-receive point and a method are disclosed. The processing device is configured to select a beam pair from a set of candidate beam pairs (i, j), for setting up a communication link from a serving transmit device to a receive device via the selected beam pair, wherein each of the candidate beam pairs comprises a transmit beam j of the serving transmit device and a receive beam i of the receive device, wherein the selection is based on statistics of a usage of one or more interfering transmit beams (m, k) of one or more interfering transmit devices m, and k represents one or more transmit beams.
