OPTIMIZING TRANSMISSION OF A SIDELINK SYNCHRONIZATION SIGNAL BY A WIRELESS DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17644042 titled 'OPTIMIZING TRANSMISSION OF A SIDELINK SYNCHRONIZATION SIGNAL BY A WIRELESS DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

Abstract

The patent application describes techniques for wireless communication. It introduces a wireless communication device that can identify areas with weak global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals. When such an area is detected, the device can send a sidelink synchronization signal to user equipment (UE) devices located within that area.

Explanation

  • Wireless communication device determines areas with weak GNSS signals
  • Device sends sidelink synchronization signal to UE devices in those areas

Potential Applications

This technology can have various applications, including:

  • Improving wireless communication in areas with deficient GNSS signals
  • Enhancing communication reliability in remote or rural areas
  • Assisting in emergency situations where GNSS signals may be disrupted

Problems Solved

The patent addresses the following problems:

  • Weak GNSS signals can hinder wireless communication in certain areas
  • Lack of synchronization between devices in deficient GNSS signal areas

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved wireless communication coverage in areas with weak GNSS signals
  • Enhanced reliability and connectivity for user equipment devices
  • Increased efficiency and effectiveness of communication in challenging environments


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed are techniques for performing wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may determine that a prospective position of the wireless communication device is in a geographic area associated with a deficient global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signal. In some cases, the wireless communications device can transmit a sidelink synchronization signal to at least one user equipment (UE) device that is located within the geographic area associated with the deficient GNSS signal.
