REDUCED-CAPABILITY-SPECIFIC INITIAL BANDWIDTH PARTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17660053 titled 'REDUCED-CAPABILITY-SPECIFIC INITIAL BANDWIDTH PARTS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application relates to wireless communication and specifically focuses on a user equipment (UE) that can monitor a control channel within a reduced capability (RedCap)-specific initial downlink bandwidth part (BWP) while operating in idle or inactive mode. The UE can receive communications through this control channel.
- The patent application describes a method for a RedCap UE to monitor a control channel within a reduced capability initial downlink bandwidth part.
- The UE can receive at least one communication through this control channel.
- The patent application covers various aspects related to wireless communication and describes numerous other features and functionalities.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems to improve the monitoring and reception capabilities of RedCap UEs.
- It can enhance the efficiency and reliability of communication for RedCap UEs operating in idle or inactive mode.
Problems Solved
- RedCap UEs operating in idle or inactive mode may have limited monitoring and reception capabilities.
- The patent application addresses this issue by providing a method for these UEs to monitor a control channel within a reduced capability initial downlink bandwidth part, improving their ability to receive communications.
Benefits
- Improved monitoring and reception capabilities for RedCap UEs in idle or inactive mode.
- Enhanced efficiency and reliability of communication for these UEs.
- Enables better utilization of the available bandwidth and resources in wireless communication systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may monitor a control channel configured within a reduced capability (RedCap)-specific initial downlink bandwidth part (BWP), wherein the UE is a RedCap UE operating in idle mode or inactive mode. The UE may receive at least one communication via the control channel. Numerous other aspects are described.
