ASSOCIATION OF SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL (SRS) WITH MULTIPLE FREQUENCY-DOMAIN STAGGERED RANDOM ACCESS CHANNEL (RACH) RESOURCES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17756834 titled 'ASSOCIATION OF SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL (SRS) WITH MULTIPLE FREQUENCY-DOMAIN STAGGERED RANDOM ACCESS CHANNEL (RACH) RESOURCES

Simplified Explanation

Abstract

The patent application describes techniques for wireless communication. It introduces a method for a user equipment (UE) to receive a configuration of a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource or SRS resource set during a first state. The UE then establishes an association between the SRS resource or SRS resource set and a group of random access channel (RACH) resources. Finally, the UE transmits a group of RACH signals using transmission properties based on the association between the SRS resource or SRS resource set and the group of RACH resources.

Explanation

  • The user equipment (UE) receives a configuration of a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource or SRS resource set.
  • The UE establishes an association between the SRS resource or SRS resource set and a group of random access channel (RACH) resources.
  • The UE transmits a group of RACH signals using transmission properties based on the association between the SRS resource or SRS resource set and the group of RACH resources.
  • The group of RACH resources can span a plurality of adjacent frequency resources over a single time resource or over a plurality of time resources.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, to improve the efficiency and reliability of communication between user equipment and base stations.
  • It can be used in IoT (Internet of Things) networks to enable seamless and reliable connectivity for a large number of devices.
  • The techniques described in the patent application can also be utilized in satellite communication systems to enhance the performance of wireless data transmission.

Problems Solved

  • The disclosed techniques address the challenge of efficiently configuring and utilizing resources in wireless communication systems.
  • By establishing an association between the SRS resource or SRS resource set and the group of RACH resources, the patent application solves the problem of optimizing the transmission properties for RACH signals.
  • The technology helps in mitigating interference and improving the overall performance of wireless communication systems.

Benefits

  • The techniques described in the patent application enable more efficient utilization of resources, leading to improved system capacity and throughput.
  • By optimizing the transmission properties based on the association between SRS and RACH resources, the technology enhances the reliability and robustness of wireless communication.
  • The disclosed methods can reduce interference and improve the quality of service for users, resulting in a better user experience.


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives, during a first state, a configuration of a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource or SRS resource set, obtains an association between the SRS resource or SRS resource set and a group of random access channel (RACH) resources, and transmits, while outside the first state, a group of RACH signals using transmission properties based on the association between the SRS resource or SRS resource set and the group of RACH resources, wherein the group of RACH resources spans a plurality of adjacent frequency resources over a single time resource, or the group or RACH resources spans the plurality of adjacent frequency resources over a plurality of time resources.
