SIDELINK MEASUREMENT REPORTING FOR SIDELINK RELAYS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17823723 titled 'SIDELINK MEASUREMENT REPORTING FOR SIDELINK RELAYS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on determining which relay UEs to activate or deactivate for relaying communications for a first UE based on measurements performed on reference signals from relay UEs.

  • Techniques involve performing and reporting measurements on reference signals from relay UEs at a first UE.
  • The first UE may perform measurements on deactivated relay UEs and report these measurements when triggered by certain events.
  • Events triggering measurement reports may depend on the measurements performed on the deactivated relay UEs.
  • The reported measurements can be used by a second UE or a network entity to efficiently determine which relay UEs to activate or deactivate for relaying communications for the first UE.

Potential Applications

  • Wireless communication systems
  • Relay communication networks
  • Mobile networks

Problems Solved

  • Efficiently determining which relay UEs to activate or deactivate for relaying communications
  • Improving network performance and resource allocation
  • Enhancing overall communication reliability

Benefits

  • Optimized relay UE selection for improved communication efficiency
  • Enhanced network performance and reliability
  • Better resource allocation and utilization in wireless communication systems


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. For example, the described techniques provide for performing and reporting suitable measurements, at a first user equipment (UE), on reference signals from relay UEs to determine which relay UEs to activate or deactivate for relaying communications for the first UE. The first UE may be configured to perform measurements on deactivated relay UEs, and the first UE may report these measurements (or other measurements) when one or more events are triggered. The events may depend on the measurements performed on the deactivated relay UEs. Once the events are triggered, the first UE may report the measurements, and a second UE or a network entity may use the measurements to efficiently determine which relay UEs to activate or deactivate for relaying communications for the first UE.
