COLLISION HANDLING FOR WUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17816351 titled 'COLLISION HANDLING FOR WUS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes a method for a user equipment (UE) to identify and potentially communicate with a first radio while a second radio is active, without relying on any indication received via the second radio. The UE has the ability to choose whether to execute the potential communication, which would involve activating the first radio. Only one radio between the first and second radios can be active at a time. The first radio is referred to as the main radio, while the second radio is a wakeup receiver.

  • The UE can detect a potential communication associated with the first radio while the second radio is in use.
  • The potential communication is independent of any indication received via the second radio.
  • The UE has the option to decide whether to proceed with the potential communication.
  • Activating the potential communication involves switching on the first radio.
  • Only one radio can be active at a time, either the first radio or the second radio.
  • The first radio is the main radio, while the second radio is a wakeup receiver.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology could be used in mobile devices to allow for simultaneous communication and monitoring of different radio frequencies.
  • It could be applied in IoT devices to enable efficient communication between multiple radios.

Problems Solved:

  • The method solves the problem of identifying and potentially communicating with a first radio while a second radio is active, without relying on indications from the second radio.
  • It addresses the issue of managing multiple radios in a UE and ensuring only one radio is active at a time.

Benefits:

  • The technology allows for more efficient use of multiple radios in a UE, enabling simultaneous monitoring and communication.
  • It provides flexibility for the UE to choose whether to execute potential communications, optimizing power consumption and network resources.


Original Abstract Submitted

A UE may identify, while a second radio of the UE is on, a potential communication associated with a first radio of the UE. The potential communication may be independent from an indication received via the second radio. The UE may select whether to execute the potential communication. Executing the potential communication may be associated with switching on the first radio. A single radio between the first radio and the second radio may be switched on at a time. The first radio of the UE may be a main radio. The second radio of the UE may be a wakeup receiver.
