PHYSICAL UPLINK SHARED CHANNEL (PUSCH) REPETITION COUNTING IN PAIRED SPECTRUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17934511 titled 'PHYSICAL UPLINK SHARED CHANNEL (PUSCH) REPETITION COUNTING IN PAIRED SPECTRUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application is related to techniques for uplink transmission repetitions in wireless communications. Here are the key points:

  • The patent application discloses devices and methods for wireless communications that involve transmitting or receiving repetitions of uplink transmissions.
  • One example involves a user equipment (UE) and a scheduling entity receiving/transmitting an indication of a repetition count from the scheduling entity.
  • The UE and scheduling entity also receive/transmit a resource allocation for a set of slots on a first carrier.
  • Repetitions of an uplink transmission are then transmitted/received on a subset of the slots on the first carrier.
  • The first carrier is paired with a second carrier and separated from it in frequency.
  • The UE operates in a half duplex communication mode, and the quantity of repetitions transmitted is based on the repetition count.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, to improve uplink transmission reliability and performance.
  • It can be used in IoT (Internet of Things) devices and networks to enhance the reliability of uplink data transmissions.
  • The techniques can also be utilized in satellite communication systems to improve uplink transmission quality.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Uplink transmissions in wireless communication systems can suffer from interference and signal degradation, leading to reduced reliability and performance.
  • By using repetitions of uplink transmissions, this technology helps mitigate the effects of interference and improve the overall quality of uplink communications.
  • It addresses the challenge of transmitting reliable uplink data in half duplex communication systems where simultaneous transmission and reception are not possible.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved reliability: By transmitting repetitions of uplink transmissions, the technology enhances the reliability of data transmission, reducing the chances of packet loss or errors.
  • Enhanced performance: The use of repetitions helps improve the overall performance of uplink communications by mitigating the impact of interference and signal degradation.
  • Compatibility with half duplex communication: The techniques are designed to work in half duplex communication systems, allowing for efficient uplink transmissions even in constrained communication scenarios.


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques related to uplink transmission repetitions are disclosed. Some aspects of the disclosure relate to devices and methods for wireless communications that include transmitting or receiving repetitions of uplink transmissions. In one example, a user equipment (UE) and a scheduling entity can receive/transmit an indication of a repetition count from a scheduling entity; receive/transmit a resource allocation for a set of a plurality of slots on a first carrier; and transmit/receive repetitions of an uplink transmission on a subset of the plurality of slots on the first carrier. Here, the first carrier is paired with a second carrier and separated from the second carrier in frequency. Also, the UE operates in a half duplex communication, and a quantity of the repetitions transmitted is based on the repetition count. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
