EARLY TERMINATION OF BLIND DECODING WITH RATELESS CODING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17529196 titled 'EARLY TERMINATION OF BLIND DECODING WITH RATELESS CODING

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes a system for early termination of decoding attempts, specifically for decoding attempts associated with physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates that are encoded using a rateless code.

  • The transmitting device encodes a message using a rateless code that combines different portions of the message and includes a device identifier or group identifier as an input to the encoding process.
  • The receiving device receives an encoded signal over candidate resources and attempts to decode the signal using the rateless code and the device identifier or group identifier as an input to the decoding process.
  • This allows the receiving device to determine whether to continue with the decoding attempt or terminate it at an early stage, based on the evaluation of the received signal.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems
  • Cellular networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient decoding of signals encoded using rateless codes
  • Early termination of decoding attempts to save computational resources
  • Improved reliability and efficiency of wireless communication systems

Benefits of this technology:

  • Reduced computational overhead for decoding attempts
  • Improved overall performance and efficiency of wireless communication systems
  • Enhanced reliability and accuracy of decoding processes


Original Abstract Submitted

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for early termination of decoding attempts, including decoding attempts associated with physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates that are encoded using a rateless code. In some aspects, a transmitting device may encode a message using a rateless code associated with a cumulative encoding of various portions of the message, and using a device identifier or group identifier as an input to the encoding. Similarly, a receiving device may receive an encoded signal over candidate resources and may attempt to decode the signal in accordance with the rateless code and using a device identifier or a group identifier as an input to the decoding. As such, intended or non-intended receiving device may be able to evaluate whether to proceed with a decoding attempt or to terminate a decoding attempt at a relatively early stage.
