SUB-BAND INDICATION FOR SUB-BAND FULL DUPLEX (SBFD) WIRELESS COMMUNICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17881481 titled 'SUB-BAND INDICATION FOR SUB-BAND FULL DUPLEX (SBFD) WIRELESS COMMUNICATION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes techniques for wireless communication using sub-band full duplex (SBFD). It explains how a network entity can inform a user equipment (UE) about the allocation of communication resources for SBFD operations using sub-bands. The network entity can indicate the sub-band allocation in symbols/slots configured for SBFD operations using various techniques. The UE can receive a SBFD configuration of one or more time slots, where each time slot includes multiple symbols. The SBFD configuration indicates that some of the symbols are capable of an SBFD operation using a first sub-band for downlink (DL) communication and a second sub-band for uplink (UL) communication. The UE can then communicate with the network entity in the symbols configured for the SBFD operation using either the first sub-band for DL communication or the second sub-band for UL communication.

Original Abstract Submitted
Aspects of the disclosure provide techniques for wireless communication using sub-band full duplex (SBFD). A network entity can inform a user equipment (UE) on the allocation of communication resources for SBFD operations using sub-bands. The network entity can indicate sub-band allocation in symbols/slots configured for SBFD operations using various techniques. A UE can receive a SBFD configuration of one or more time slots, each time slot including a plurality of symbols. The SBFD configuration indicates that one or more of the plurality of symbols are capable of an SBFD operation using a first sub-band for downlink (DL) communication and a second sub-band for uplink (UL) communication. The UE can communicate with the network entity in the one or more symbols configured for the SBFD operation using at least one of the first sub-band for DL communication or the second sub-band for UL communication.
