USER EQUIPMENT (UE)-SPECIFIC BANDWIDTH PART QUANTIZATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17454689 titled 'USER EQUIPMENT (UE)-SPECIFIC BANDWIDTH PART QUANTIZATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes techniques for wireless communication. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The user equipment (UE) determines the currently active bandwidth part (BWP) and a positioning reference signal (PRS) configuration.
  • The UE identifies a first subset of PRSs within the currently active BWP and a second subset of PRSs outside the currently active BWP.
  • If measuring only the PRSs in the first subset does not meet the required accuracy, the UE extends the currently active BWP to include some PRSs from the second subset.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems
  • Mobile networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • 5G and future generations of wireless networks

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures accurate measurement of positioning reference signals
  • Improves the reliability and efficiency of wireless communication
  • Reduces the need for additional signaling and resources

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced accuracy in determining the location of user equipment
  • Improved performance and reliability of wireless communication systems
  • Optimal utilization of available bandwidth resources
  • Simplified network management and configuration


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) may determine a currently active bandwidth part (BWP). The UE may determine a positioning reference signal (PRS) configuration that specifies PRSs to be measured. The UE may determine that a first subset of the PRSs to be measured are within the currently active BWP and that a second subset of the PRSs to be measured are not within the currently active BWP. The UE may upon determining that measuring the PRSs in the first subset but not measuring the PRSs in the second subset will not produce a measurement result that meets an accuracy requirement, extending the currently active BWP to include at least some of the PRSs in the second subset.
