The present invention relates to a method of signalling in an Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) network. The method comprises signalling information related to multiplexing capability and supported modes of operation from the child IAB node to the parent IAB node. An active mode of operation is determined at the child IAB node. The configuration to operate in the active mode of operation is signalled to the child IAB node. Timing Advance (TA) for each active mode of operation, guard information for each active mode of operation are signalled as configuration for the active mode of operation. Further, the method comprises signalling exchanges for fallback from one mode of operation to another at child IAB nodes.

Method of signalling in an integrated access and backhaul network

A system and a method for performing uplink (UL) time synchronization in non-terrestrial networks (NTN) include Performing Downlink (DL) synchronization SSB signals. At least one information is received by a UEfrom an NTN BS. A location information of a satellite is obtained using the at least one information received by the UE. Location of the UEis estimated using one of GNSS receiver of the UEand by processing at least one reference signal received by the UEfrom multiple NTN-BS, using at least one multilateration technique and RTK. Timing Advance (TA) estimate is determined using the location of the satellite and location of the UE. TA applied is determined using the TA estimate and TA margin. PRACH is transmitted based on the TA applied and an information related to the TA applied is reported to the NTN-BS. Residual TA is estimated using the reported information related to the TA applied and the detected PRACH. The residual TA is indicated to the UEfor subsequent UL transmissions, in order to achieve the UL time synchronization in the NTN based communication network.

Methods and systems for uplink time synchronization in non-terrestrial networks based communication

The present invention relates to a method of signalling in an Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) network. The method comprises signalling metrics from a parent IAB node to a child IAB node for association of the child IAB node with the parent IAB node. Information related to multiplexing capability and supported modes of operation is signalled from the child IAB node to the parent IAB node. An active mode of operation is determined at the child IAB node. Timing Advance (TA) for each active mode of operation, guard information for each active mode of operation, and exchanges for In-Band Full Duplexing (IBFD) mode of operation are signalled. Further, fallback capability of IAB nodes during presence of Self-Interference (SI) is also signalled.

The method includes configuring a first CLI-RS configuration at a first UE (). Further, the method includes configuring a second CLI-RS configuration at a second UE (). Further, the method includes generating a CLI-RS sequence using a common CLI-RS reference point known to the first UE () and the second UE (). Further, the method includes filling the CLI-RS sequence in the first set of CLI-RS resources indicated in the first CLI-RS configuration. Further, the method includes transmitting the CLI-RS sequence filled in the first set of CLI-RS resources indicated in the first CLI-RS configuration to the second UE (). Further, the method includes receiving the CLI-RS sequence transmitted by the first UE (). Further, the method includes processing the received CLI-RS sequence based on the second CLI-RS configuration.
