US Patent 12136967 User-equipment-coordination set for a wireless network

This document describes techniques and apparatuses for a user equipment (UE)-coordination set for a wireless network. In aspects, a base station specifies a set of UEs to form a UE-coordination set for joint transmission and reception of data intended for a target UE within the UE-coordination set. The base station selects one of the UEs within the UE-coordination set to act as a coordinating UE for the UE-coordination set and transmits a request message that directs the coordinating UE to coordinate the joint transmission and reception of the data intended for the target UE. Then, the base station transmits a downlink signal to each UE within the UE-coordination set. Each UE within the UE-coordination set demodulates and samples the downlink signal and then forwards the samples to the coordinating UE, which combines the samples and processes the combined samples to provide decoded data.
