CONFIGURATION OF MULTICAST RECEPTION AND MOBILITY FOR USER EQUIPMENT IN AN INACTIVE STATE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17817332 titled 'CONFIGURATION OF MULTICAST RECEPTION AND MOBILITY FOR USER EQUIPMENT IN AN INACTIVE STATE
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure relates to wireless communication and specifically to the capability of user equipment (UE) to receive multicast communications while in an inactive state. The UE can transmit capability information indicating its ability to receive multicast communications. It can receive configuration information from a first cell, indicating a common frequency resource (CFR) associated with receiving multicast communications while in the inactive state. The UE can also receive multicast mobility information from the first cell, which is associated with receiving multicast communications from neighboring cells while in the inactive state. While in the inactive state, the UE can receive multicast communications from the first cell or a second cell based on the received configuration information or multicast mobility information.
- User equipment (UE) can transmit capability information indicating its ability to receive multicast communications while inactive.
- Configuration information is received from a first cell, indicating a common frequency resource (CFR) for receiving multicast communications while inactive.
- Multicast mobility information is received from the first cell, associated with receiving multicast communications from neighboring cells while inactive.
- While inactive, the UE can receive multicast communications from the first cell or a second cell based on the received configuration information or multicast mobility information.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Efficient multicast communication in wireless networks.
- Improved resource allocation for multicast transmissions.
- Enhanced communication capabilities for user equipment in an inactive state.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient utilization of network resources for multicast communications.
- Seamless reception of multicast communications while in an inactive state.
- Improved coordination between cells for multicast transmissions.
Benefits of this technology:
- Enhanced user experience with uninterrupted reception of multicast communications.
- Optimal allocation of network resources for multicast transmissions.
- Improved efficiency and reliability of multicast communication in wireless networks.
Original Abstract Submitted
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit capability information indicating a capability of the UE to receive multicast communications while operating in an inactive state. The UE may receive, from a first cell, configuration information that indicates a common frequency resource (CFR) associated with receiving multicast communications from the first cell while operating in the inactive state. The UE may receive, from the first cell, multicast mobility information associated with receiving multicast communications from one or more neighboring cells while operating in the inactive state. The UE may receive, while operating in the inactive state, one or more multicast communications from at least one of the first cell or a second cell based at least in part on at least one of the configuration information or the multicast mobility information. Numerous other aspects are provided.
