CHANNEL OCCUPANCY SHARING CONDITIONS FOR BEAM-BASED CHANNEL ACCESS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17878752 titled 'CHANNEL OCCUPANCY SHARING CONDITIONS FOR BEAM-BASED CHANNEL ACCESS

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes a system for sharing channel occupancy conditions in beam-based channel access. It introduces a procedure where a first wireless device can share the channel occupancy time of a second wireless device without performing a listen-before-talk procedure, under certain conditions. These conditions may include the satisfaction of a narrow beam condition, a time gap between transmissions, or the duration of a continuous transmission.

  • The patent application introduces a system for beam-based channel access in wireless devices.
  • It proposes a method where a first wireless device can share the channel occupancy time of a second wireless device without performing a listen-before-talk procedure.
  • The sharing of channel occupancy time is based on certain conditions being satisfied, such as the use of a narrow beam, a time gap between transmissions, or the duration of a continuous transmission.
  • The invention includes computer programs encoded on computer storage media to implement this procedure.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems that require efficient channel access.
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices that need to share channel resources.
  • Wireless networks in crowded environments where channel access is a challenge.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Reduces the need for a listen-before-talk procedure, which can improve channel access efficiency.
  • Enables wireless devices to share channel occupancy time without causing interference.
  • Facilitates better utilization of channel resources in beam-based communication systems.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved channel access efficiency, leading to better overall network performance.
  • Reduced interference between wireless devices sharing the same channel.
  • Increased capacity and throughput in wireless communication systems.
  • Enhanced reliability and stability of wireless networks.


Original Abstract Submitted

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for channel occupancy sharing conditions for beam-based channel access. In some aspects, one or more wireless devices may support a beam-based channel access procedure according to which a first wireless device may share a channel occupancy time (COT) of a second wireless device without performing a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure if one or more conditions associated with a transmission from the first wireless device are satisfied. Such conditions may be associated with whether a directional beam used by the first wireless device satisfies a narrow beam condition, a time gap between a transmission from the second wireless device and a transmission from the first wireless device, or a duration of a continuous transmission from the first wireless device, or any combination thereof.
