TECHNIQUES FOR LINK ADAPTATION FOR BROADCAST CHANNELS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17876940 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR LINK ADAPTATION FOR BROADCAST CHANNELS

Simplified Explanation

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in this patent application. The innovation provides a way for a user equipment (UE) to indicate the state of a channel, which can then be used to select transmission parameters for a downlink broadcast transmission.

Here are the bullet points explaining the patent/innovation:

  • A network entity transmits a first downlink transmission to a UE.
  • The UE receives the first downlink transmission and measures the channel quality.
  • The UE then transmits an uplink communication that indicates the channel quality.
  • The network device receives the uplink communication from the UE.
  • Based on the indication of the channel quality, the network device determines one or more transmission parameters for a broadcast downlink transmission.
  • The network device then transmits the broadcast downlink transmission.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems and networks
  • Mobile devices and smartphones
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Broadcast and streaming services

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient selection of transmission parameters for downlink broadcast transmissions
  • Improved channel quality measurement and indication by the UE
  • Enhanced wireless communication performance and reliability

Benefits of this technology:

  • Optimal selection of transmission parameters leads to improved signal quality and data rates for users
  • Efficient use of network resources by adapting transmission parameters based on channel quality
  • Enhanced user experience with better connectivity and reduced interference


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for an indication of a channel state by a user equipment (UE) that can be used to select transmission parameters for a downlink broadcast transmission. A network entity may transmit a first downlink transmission that may be received at a UE and used to measure a channel quality at the UE. The UE may transmit an uplink communication that provides an indication of the channel quality. The network device may receive the uplink communication, determine one or more transmission parameters for a broadcast downlink transmission based on the indication of the channel quality, and transmit the broadcast downlink transmission.
