Abstract

Wireless communications systems and methods related to reusing long-term evolution (LTE) resources for new radio (NR) system operations are provided. A UE receives, from a base station, a reference signal configuration of a first network of a long-term evolution (LTE) radio access technology (RAT). The UE and the base station are associated with a second network of another RAT. The reference signal configuration indicates at least a number of antenna ports associated with a reference signal of the first network. The UE determines a location of the reference signal associated with the reference signal configuration and receives, from the base station, a data signal of the second network based at least on the location of the reference signal of the first network.
