RELATIVE POWER SETTING BETWEEN DIFFERENT CELLS IN DUAL CONNECTIVITY OR CARRIER AGGREGATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17443636 titled 'RELATIVE POWER SETTING BETWEEN DIFFERENT CELLS IN DUAL CONNECTIVITY OR CARRIER AGGREGATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application relates to wireless communication and specifically addresses the issue of power difference between different cells in a network. The application proposes a method for a user equipment (UE) to receive signaling from a base station indicating the relative power difference between two cells. The UE then applies this relative power difference during a transmission occasion, where it transmits at a lower power level on the first cell compared to the second cell.

  • The patent application proposes a method for a UE to receive signaling from a base station indicating the relative power difference between two cells.
  • The UE then applies this relative power difference during a transmission occasion.
  • The UE transmits at a lower power level on the first cell compared to the second cell.

Potential Applications

This technology can have various applications in wireless communication systems, including:

  • Improving network efficiency by optimizing power allocation between cells.
  • Enhancing overall network performance by reducing interference between cells.
  • Enabling better resource management in multi-cell environments.

Problems Solved

The technology described in the patent application addresses the following problems:

  • Power imbalance between cells can lead to inefficient use of network resources.
  • High power transmission on one cell can cause interference with neighboring cells.
  • Inadequate power allocation can result in degraded network performance.

Benefits

The proposed technology offers several benefits:

  • Improved network efficiency and capacity through optimized power allocation.
  • Reduced interference between cells, leading to better overall network performance.
  • Enhanced resource management in multi-cell environments, resulting in a more reliable and stable network.


Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, signaling that indicates a relative power difference between a first cell and a second cell. The UE may apply the relative power difference in a transmission occasion that includes at least a first uplink transmission on the first cell and a second uplink transmission on the second cell, wherein applying the relative power difference causes the first uplink transmission on the first cell to be transmitted at a lower power level than the second uplink transmission on the second cell. Numerous other aspects are described.
