COORDINATION OF TRANSMIT POWER FOR DISTRIBUTED UNITS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17643112 titled 'COORDINATION OF TRANSMIT POWER FOR DISTRIBUTED UNITS

Simplified Explanation

Abstract

The abstract of this patent application describes a wireless communication system where a first node transmits power information for a distributed unit (DU) to a central unit (CU). The first node receives an indication of a transmit power parameter from the CU and uses this parameter to transmit a communication with a power level based on the parameter.

Patent/Innovation Explanation

  • A first node in a wireless communication system transmits power information for a distributed unit (DU) to a central unit (CU).
  • The first node receives an indication of a transmit power parameter from the CU.
  • The first node uses the transmit power parameter to determine the power level for transmitting a communication.
  • The communication is transmitted with a power level based on the transmit power parameter.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, including but not limited to:

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

Problems Solved

This technology addresses the following problems in wireless communication systems:

  • Efficient power allocation for distributed units (DUs)
  • Optimizing transmit power levels for better communication performance
  • Coordinating power control between central units (CUs) and distributed units (DUs)

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved power allocation and management in wireless communication systems
  • Enhanced communication performance and reliability
  • Efficient coordination between central units (CUs) and distributed units (DUs)
  • Potential energy savings in wireless networks.


Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first node may transmit transmit power information for a distributed unit (DU) to a central unit (CU). The first node may receive, from the CU in connection with transmitting the transmit power information, an indication of a transmit power parameter to use for transmitting a communication. The first node may transmit the communication with a transmit power that is based at least in part on the transmit power parameter. Numerous other aspects are described.
