PHASE NOISE ESTIMATION

摘要

Methods, systems, devices, and apparatuses are described for phase noise estimation. A transmitting device identifies a phase noise metric associated with a receiving device. The phase noise metric provides an indication of the expected phase noise for the receiving device. The transmitting device selects a plurality of pilot tones adjacent to each other and a plurality of null tones for a transmission to the receiving device based on the phase noise metric. The plurality of null tones may be adjacent to and on both sides of the pilot tones in the frequency domain. The transmitting device identifies its own phase noise metric and select the pilot tones adjacent to each other and plurality of null tones in further consideration of its own phase noise metric. The receiving device may use the pilot tones and plurality of adjacent null tones to determine a phase noise estimation for the transmission.

1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:
identifying a phase noise metric associated with a receiving device; and selecting a plurality of pilot tones adjacent to each other, and a plurality of null tones for a transmission to the receiving device based at least in part on the identified phase noise metric, the plurality of null tones being adjacent to and on both sides of the pilot tones in the frequency domain.
