UNIFIED TRANSMISSION CONFIGURATION INDICATOR FRAMEWORK FOR SINGLE FREQUENCY NETWORK OPERATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17819143 titled 'UNIFIED TRANSMISSION CONFIGURATION INDICATOR FRAMEWORK FOR SINGLE FREQUENCY NETWORK OPERATIONS
Simplified Explanation
- Explanation:**
The patent application relates to wireless communication, specifically focusing on a single frequency network (SFN) scheme and transmission configuration indicators (TCI) for user equipment (UE).
- User equipment (UE) receives configuration information from a network node indicating an SFN scheme to be used.
- The UE also receives a TCI codepoint indicating multiple TCI states associated with the SFN scheme.
- A beam indication is received by the UE, which is linked to a unified TCI state indication, providing updated information for a TCI state or indicating multiple downlink channels associated with the TCI states.
- Potential Applications:**
- Wireless communication networks
- Mobile devices
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Problems Solved:**
- Efficient utilization of network resources
- Improved signal reception and transmission
- Enhanced network performance and reliability
- Benefits:**
- Enhanced network capacity and coverage
- Better quality of service for users
- Optimal utilization of available spectrum resources
Original Abstract Submitted
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network node, configuration information indicating a single frequency network (SFN) scheme to be applied by the UE. The UE may receive, from the network node, a transmission configuration indicator (TCI) codepoint indicating two or more TCI states associated with the SFN scheme. The UE may receive, from the network node, a beam indication that is associated with a unified TCI state indication, wherein the beam indication indicates at least one of: updated information for a TCI state, from the two or more TCI states, or that the two or more TCI states are associated with multiple downlink channels. Numerous other aspects are described.
