METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR REDUCING FRONTHAUL BANDWIDTH IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17912728 titled 'METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR REDUCING FRONTHAUL BANDWIDTH IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure is about a communication system that supports higher data rates beyond the 4G LTE system. It focuses on reducing the fronthaul bandwidth during data transfer between radio nodes and centralized nodes in a wireless network.

  • The patent application proposes a method for determining specific parameters for User Equipment (UE) using machine learning.
  • The method involves compressing the data using the determined parameters and transferring it over a fronthaul link between the radio nodes and centralized nodes.
  • The compressed data is then decompressed by either the radio nodes or the centralized nodes using the same parameters determined through machine learning.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various wireless network scenarios where high data rates are required, such as:

  • 5G communication systems
  • Internet of Things (IoT) networks
  • Smart cities with extensive wireless connectivity
  • High-definition video streaming services

Problems Solved

The technology addresses the following problems in wireless networks:

  • High fronthaul bandwidth requirements during data transfer between radio nodes and centralized nodes.
  • Limited capacity of existing communication systems to support higher data rates.
  • Inefficient use of network resources due to excessive data transmission.

Benefits

The use of this technology offers several benefits:

  • Reduced fronthaul bandwidth requirements, leading to cost savings in network infrastructure.
  • Improved efficiency in data transfer between radio nodes and centralized nodes.
  • Enhanced network capacity to support higher data rates.
  • Optimized use of network resources, resulting in improved overall network performance.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a pre-5-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). The present disclosure provides methods and systems for reducing fronthaul bandwidth. Embodiments herein relate to the field of wireless networks and more particularly to reducing fronthaul bandwidth during a transfer of data between at least one radio node and at least one centralized node in a wireless network. A method disclosed herein includes determining parameters specific to at least one User Equipment (UE) using a machine learning method. The method further includes transferring data between the at least one radio node and the at least one centralized node over a fronthaul link by compressing the data using the parameters that are determined using the machine learning method. The method further includes decompressing, by at least one of the at least one radio node and the at least one centralized node, the compressed data using the parameters that are determined using the machine learning method.
