LOW-POWER SYNCHRONIZATION SIGNALS AND WAKE UP SIGNALS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17885394 titled 'LOW-POWER SYNCHRONIZATION SIGNALS AND WAKE UP SIGNALS

Simplified Explanation

- User equipment (UE) can detect a low-power synchronization signal (LP-SS) associated with a larger coverage area than a legacy synchronization signal block. - The UE can monitor for a low-power wake up signal, based on the LP-SS, associated with a larger coverage area than a legacy wake up signal. - The technology involves using a low-power receiver in the UE to detect and monitor these signals for improved wireless communication.

Potential Applications

- Improved coverage and connectivity in wireless communication networks. - Enhanced efficiency in detecting and responding to synchronization and wake up signals.

Problems Solved

- Limited coverage area of legacy synchronization and wake up signals. - Inefficient use of power and resources in wireless communication systems.

Benefits

- Extended coverage area for synchronization and wake up signals. - Enhanced reliability and performance of wireless communication. - Improved power efficiency in detecting and responding to signals.

Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may detect, using a low-power receiver of the UE, a low-power synchronization signal (LP-SS) that is associated with a first coverage area that is larger than a second coverage area associated with a legacy synchronization signal block. The UE may monitor, using the low-power receiver, for a low-power wake up signal, based at least in part on the LP-SS, that is associated with a third coverage area that is larger than a fourth coverage area associated with a legacy wake up signal. Numerous other aspects are described.
