BEAM FAILURE INDICATION TECHNIQUES BASED ON USER EQUIPMENT AUTONOMY CAPABILITY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17382066 titled 'BEAM FAILURE INDICATION TECHNIQUES BASED ON USER EQUIPMENT AUTONOMY CAPABILITY

Simplified Explanation

Methods, systems, and devices are described in this patent application for wireless communications. The focus is on autonomous block error rate (BLER) threshold determination for use in beam failure indication (BFI) procedures. The goal is to enhance beam failure detection procedures to provide more efficient and reliable communications.

  • User equipment (UE) can autonomously determine a BLER threshold value.
  • The UE can indicate its capability to a base station.
  • The base station can provide configuration information to enable the UE to perform autonomous BLER threshold determination.
  • The UE can determine the BLER threshold value based on the configuration information.
  • The UE can detect a beam failure indication (BFI) based on the determined BLER threshold.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems
  • Mobile networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Autonomous vehicles
  • Smart city infrastructure

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Enhances beam failure detection procedures

  • Provides more accurate detection of beam failures

Benefits of this technology:

  • More efficient and reliable wireless communications
  • Enhanced detection of beam failures
  • Autonomous determination of BLER threshold
  • Improved performance of mobile networks and IoT devices


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for autonomous block error rate (BLER) threshold determination fur use in beam failure indication (BFI) procedures. A user equipment (UE) that is capable of autonomously determining a BLER threshold value may provide an indication of the capability to a base station. The base station may provide configuration information that enables the UE to perform autonomous BLER threshold determination, and the UE may determine the BLER threshold value based on the configuration information. The UE may determine that a BFI has occurred based on the determined BLER threshold, and thereby enhance beam failure detection procedures to provide more efficient and reliable communications.
