NEW RADIO SYNCHRONIZATION SIGNAL BLOCK RELATED IDLE MEASUREMENT CONFIGURATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17620411 titled 'NEW RADIO SYNCHRONIZATION SIGNAL BLOCK RELATED IDLE MEASUREMENT CONFIGURATION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It focuses on improving coverage, reliability, and low latency for wireless communications relating to multiple radio access technologies. Here are the key points:
- User equipment (UE) receives synchronization signal block (SSB) related measurement configurations exclusively in a system information block (SIB).
- UE receives SSB frequency lists for idle measurements in both a SIB and a radio resource control (RRC) message.
- UE may receive SSB related measurement configurations or SSB frequency lists for idle measurements in a SIB and an RRC message.
- SSB measurement configurations for SSB frequencies out of a sync raster are exclusively indicated in the RRC message.
- This technology aims to improve coverage and reliability for wireless communications.
- It also promotes low latency for wireless communications relating to multiple radio access technologies.
Potential Applications
This technology has potential applications in various wireless communication systems, including:
- Cellular networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Smart cities
- Industrial automation
- Autonomous vehicles
Problems Solved
This technology addresses the following problems in wireless communications:
- Limited coverage and reliability
- High latency in wireless communications
- Inefficient utilization of radio resources
- Difficulty in supporting multiple radio access technologies simultaneously
Benefits
The use of this technology offers several benefits, including:
- Improved coverage and reliability for wireless communications
- Reduced latency in wireless communications
- Efficient utilization of radio resources
- Support for multiple radio access technologies simultaneously
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive synchronization signal block (SSB) related measurement configurations exclusively in a system information block (SIB). The UE may receive SSB frequency lists for idle measurements in both a SIB or a radio resource control (RRC) message, such as an RRC release message. In some examples, the UE may receive SSB related measurement configurations or SSB frequency lists for idle measurements in a SIB and an RRC message. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may receive SSB frequency lists in a SIB and an RRC message, while SSB measurement configurations for SSB frequencies out of a sync raster may exclusively be indicated in the RRC message. The UE may therefore experience improved coverage and reliability and, in some examples, may promote low latency for wireless communications relating to multiple radio access technologies, among other benefits.
