FREQUENCY HOPPING WITHIN A VIRTUAL BANDWIDTH PART - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17758459 titled 'FREQUENCY HOPPING WITHIN A VIRTUAL BANDWIDTH PART
Simplified Explanation
The patent application relates to frequency hopping within a virtual bandwidth part (BWP) in a communication system. The invention allows a user equipment (UE) to determine a virtual BWP and perform communication based on frequency hopping within this virtual BWP. Here are the key points:
- The UE determines a virtual BWP to frequency hop from a first narrow BWP to a second narrow BWP using a frequency offset.
- The virtual BWP has the same subcarrier spacing as the first narrow BWP but a larger bandwidth.
- The UE utilizes frequency hopping within the virtual BWP for communication purposes.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Wireless communication systems
- Cellular networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- 5G and beyond networks
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient utilization of available bandwidth
- Improved communication reliability and performance
- Enhanced flexibility in frequency hopping schemes
Benefits of this technology:
- Increased capacity and throughput in communication systems
- Reduced interference and improved signal quality
- Enhanced flexibility in frequency allocation and resource management
Original Abstract Submitted
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to frequency hopping within a virtual BWP. In son aspects, a UE may determine a virtual bandwidth part (BWP) in which to frequency hop from a first narrow BWP to a second narrow BWP by a frequency offset. The virtual BWP may have a same subcarrier spacing as the first narrow BWP and a larger bandwidth than the first narrow BWP. The UE may perform communication based at least in part on frequency hopping within the virtual BWP. Numerous other aspects are provided.
