FREQUENCY HOPPING FOR SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL TRANSMISSION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17817608 titled 'FREQUENCY HOPPING FOR SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL TRANSMISSION

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure relates to wireless communication and specifically to configuring and transmitting sounding reference signal (SRS) transmissions on a set of frequencies with frequency hopping. Here is a simplified explanation of the patent application:

  • A user equipment (UE) receives configuration information for setting up a set of SRS transmissions on a set of frequencies.
  • The set of SRS transmissions on the frequencies follows a frequency hopping pattern.
  • The UE then transmits the set of SRS transmissions on the frequencies according to the frequency hopping pattern.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems: This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, to improve signal transmission and reception.
  • Internet of Things (IoT): The technology can be used in IoT devices that rely on wireless communication, enabling efficient and reliable data transmission.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Frequency interference: The frequency hopping pattern helps mitigate interference from other signals, improving the overall quality and reliability of the wireless communication.
  • Efficient spectrum utilization: By utilizing frequency hopping, the technology allows for better utilization of the available frequency spectrum, maximizing the capacity of the wireless network.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved signal quality: The frequency hopping pattern helps reduce interference and improve the signal quality, resulting in better communication performance.
  • Enhanced reliability: By using frequency hopping, the technology increases the resilience of the wireless communication system, making it more robust against interference and other signal impairments.
  • Efficient spectrum usage: The frequency hopping pattern allows for efficient utilization of the frequency spectrum, optimizing the capacity of the wireless network and accommodating more users or devices.
