A method, network node and wireless device in a wireless communication system for one of transmitting and receiving a phase-tracking reference signal, PT-RS. The method includes obtaining information about a position in a time domain of a scheduled first demodulation reference signal, DM-RS, in a slot, and one of transmitting and receiving the PT-RS within the slot, the position of the PT-RS depending on the position in the time domain of the scheduled first DM-RS.

Joint resource map design of DM-RS and PT-RS

A technique for transmitting and receiving a configuration message for a phase tracking reference signal, PT-RS, on a radio channel between a radio access node and a radio device is described. The radio channel comprises a plurality of subcarriers in a physical resource block, PRB. A subset of the subcarriers in the PRB is allocated to a demodulation reference signal, DM-RS. As to a method aspect of the technique, the configuration message is transmitted to the radio device. The configuration message comprises a bit field that is indicative of at least one subcarrier allocated to the PT-RS among the subset of subcarriers allocated to the DM-RS.

Technique for configuring a phase tracking reference signal

There is disclosed a transmitting node for a Radio Access Network, the transmitting node being adapted for transmitting, based on one or more transmission parameters, of reference signaling, and/or signaling including reference signaling, wherein the reference signaling may comprise phase tracking reference signaling and wherein the one or more transmission parameters comprise a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS).

PT-RS configuration depending on scheduling parameters

There is disclosed a transmitting node for a Radio Access Network, the transmitting node being adapted for transmitting, based on one or more transmission parameters, of reference signaling, and/or signaling including reference signaling, wherein the reference signaling comprises phase tracking reference signaling, and the one or more transmission parameters comprise a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS).

Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for PT-RS selection. In one embodiment, a wireless device is configured to determine a layer based at least on a precoder associated with a precoder matrix indicator, PMI; and transmit an indication of the determined layer to a network node as part of channel state information, CSI, feedback. In other embodiments, a network device is configured to receive an indication of a layer for a phase-tracking reference signal, PT-RS, transmission as part of channel state information, CSI, feedback; determine a precoder based at least on the indication of the layer for the PT-RS transmission; and transmit the PT-RS, the PT-RS transmission associated with the indicated layer and a PT-RS port.
