INDICATION OF REFERENCE GEOGRAPHIC COORDINATE FOR SIDELINK ZONE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17443434 titled 'INDICATION OF REFERENCE GEOGRAPHIC COORDINATE FOR SIDELINK ZONE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes techniques for wireless communication that involve determining reference geographic coordinates for multiple sidelink zones. These zones have boundaries defined by sidelink zone identifiers with geographic offsets relative to the reference coordinate. A user equipment (UE) receives the reference coordinate and performs sidelink zone-related operations based on it.

  • Techniques for wireless communication involving reference geographic coordinates for sidelink zones are disclosed.
  • Sidelink zones are defined by boundaries determined by sidelink zone identifiers with geographic offsets.
  • A UE receives the reference geographic coordinate and performs sidelink zone-related operations accordingly.

Potential Applications

This technology has potential applications in various wireless communication systems, including:

  • Cellular networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Vehicle-to-vehicle communication
  • Public safety communication systems

Problems Solved

The techniques described in the patent application address the following problems:

  • Efficient management of wireless communication in multiple sidelink zones
  • Accurate determination of boundaries for sidelink zones
  • Seamless coordination between different wireless devices within the sidelink zones

Benefits

The use of reference geographic coordinates and sidelink zone identifiers offers several benefits:

  • Improved organization and management of wireless communication in different zones
  • Enhanced coordination and synchronization between wireless devices
  • Efficient utilization of wireless resources in each sidelink zone
  • Flexibility in defining and adjusting the boundaries of sidelink zones


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a communications device (e.g., UE, gNB, LMF, etc.) determines a reference geographic coordinate (e.g., local or global coordinate) for a plurality of sidelink zones, wherein boundaries associated with each sidelink zone are defined via a respective sidelink zone identifier that includes one or more geographic offsets relative to the reference geographic coordinate. A UE receives an indication of the reference geographic coordinate, and performs one or more sidelink zone-related operations based on the reference geographic coordinate.
