Abstract
Aspects directed towards a cell-specific configuration for sounding transmissions and measurements are disclosed. In one example, scheduled entities served by a scheduling entity are identified and a cell-specific sounding pattern configuration uniformly applicable to each of the scheduled entities is generated such that the cell-specific sounding pattern configuration has a different pattern than a cell-specific sounding pattern configuration associated with at least one other cell. The cell-specific sounding pattern configuration is then transmitted to each of the scheduled entities to facilitate an identification of cell-specific resources to use for at least one of a sounding transmission or a sounding measurement. In another example, a cell-specific sounding pattern configuration is received and cell-specific resources associated with the cell-specific sounding pattern configuration are identified. At least one of a sounding transmission or a sounding measurement is then configured according to the cell-specific resources associated with the cell-specific sounding pattern configuration.
