TECHNIQUES FOR IMPROVED BEAM MANAGEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17823575 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR IMPROVED BEAM MANAGEMENT
Simplified Explanation
Abstract Explanation
The patent application is about wireless communication and specifically focuses on a user equipment measuring a beam to determine its channel condition value. The channel condition value is then modified based on various factors such as beam characterizations, beamforming gain value, or an estimation of the beamforming gain value. Finally, the modified channel condition value is transmitted to a base station through a measurement report.

Original Abstract Submitted
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may measure a beam, according to a measurement configuration, to determine a channel condition value of the beam, modify the channel condition value based at least in part on at least one of one or more beam characterizations, a derivation of a beamforming gain value, or an estimation of the beamforming gain value, and transmit, to a base station, a measurement report indicating the modified channel condition value. Numerous other aspects are provided.
