DYNAMIC SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL (SRS) RESOURCE ALLOCATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17904245 titled 'DYNAMIC SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL (SRS) RESOURCE ALLOCATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application is about wireless communication systems and methods for allocating resources for channel sounding using dynamic sounding reference signals (SRS). The base station (BS) determines multiple SRS resources for a user equipment (UE), where each resource may have a different quantity of SRS ports. The BS then transmits a configuration to the UE, indicating the available SRS resources.

  • The patent application introduces a method for allocating resources for channel sounding in wireless communication systems.
  • The base station determines multiple sounding reference signal (SRS) resources for a user equipment (UE).
  • Each SRS resource may have a different quantity of SRS ports.
  • The base station transmits a configuration to the UE, indicating the available SRS resources.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as:

  • Cellular networks
  • Wi-Fi networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Satellite communication systems

Problems Solved

This technology addresses the following problems in wireless communication systems:

  • Efficient allocation of resources for channel sounding
  • Optimizing the use of sounding reference signals
  • Enhancing the accuracy of channel estimation
  • Improving overall system performance and capacity

Benefits

The use of dynamic sounding reference signal (SRS) resource allocation provides several benefits:

  • Improved channel estimation accuracy leads to better signal quality and higher data rates.
  • Efficient resource allocation optimizes the use of available bandwidth.
  • Enhanced system performance and capacity result in better user experience.
  • Flexibility in allocating different quantities of SRS ports allows for customization based on specific network requirements.


Original Abstract Submitted

Wireless communications systems and methods related to dynamic sounding reference signal (SRS) resource allocation for channel sounding are provided. A base station (BS) determines a plurality of sounding reference signal (SRS) resources for at least a first user equipment (UE), where a first SRS resource of the plurality of SRS resources includes a different quantity of SRS ports than a second SRS resource of the plurality of SRS resources. The BS transmits, to the first UE, a configuration indicating the plurality of SRS resources.
