COMMUNICATIONS USING DYNAMIC BEAM WEIGHTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17454684 titled 'COMMUNICATIONS USING DYNAMIC BEAM WEIGHTS

Simplified Explanation

Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine, based at least in part on at least one of a plurality of conditions being met, to switch from a static analog beamforming codebook to a dynamic analog beamforming beam weight calculation for selecting beam weights for communications between the UE and a base station. The UE may select the beam weights for the communications using the dynamic beam weight calculation. The UE may communicate, using the beam weights, with the base station. Numerous other aspects are described.

Explanation

  • User equipment (UE) can switch from static to dynamic analog beamforming for wireless communication.
  • UE determines the switch based on certain conditions being met.
  • Dynamic beam weight calculation is used to select beam weights for communication between UE and base station.
  • UE communicates with the base station using the selected beam weights.

Potential Applications

  • Improved wireless communication between user equipment and base stations.
  • Enhanced signal quality and reliability in wireless networks.
  • Increased capacity and coverage in wireless networks.
  • Suitable for various wireless communication technologies such as 5G and beyond.

Problems Solved

  • Static analog beamforming may not adapt well to changing wireless channel conditions.
  • Limited flexibility in selecting beam weights for optimal communication.
  • Inefficient use of wireless resources.
  • Lack of adaptability to different user equipment scenarios.

Benefits

  • Improved signal quality and reliability in wireless communication.
  • Enhanced capacity and coverage in wireless networks.
  • Efficient utilization of wireless resources.
  • Adaptability to changing channel conditions and user equipment scenarios.
