PACKET RETRANSMISSION USING A SEMI-PERSISTENT SCHEDULING OCCASION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17938354 titled 'PACKET RETRANSMISSION USING A SEMI-PERSISTENT SCHEDULING OCCASION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes a system where a mobile station can receive multiple semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configurations from a network node, allowing for the retransmission of data packets in unused SPS occasions.

  • Mobile station receives SPS configurations from network node
  • Retransmission of data packets in unused SPS occasions

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as 5G networks, IoT devices, and industrial automation.

Problems Solved

- Efficient use of resources in wireless communication - Improved reliability of data transmission - Reduced latency in data retransmission

Benefits

- Enhanced network performance - Increased data throughput - Better user experience in mobile communication

Potential Commercial Applications

The technology could be utilized in telecommunications companies, IoT device manufacturers, and industrial automation companies to improve their wireless communication systems.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest) in wireless communication systems for retransmission of data packets.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact battery life in mobile devices?

The article does not address the potential impact of this technology on the battery life of mobile devices. It would be interesting to know if the increased data throughput and retransmission capabilities have any effect on the power consumption of the devices.

Are there any limitations to the number of SPS occasions that can be configured?

The article does not mention any limitations on the number of SPS occasions that can be configured. It would be important to understand if there are any constraints on the system in terms of scalability and performance.


Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a mobile station may receive, from a network node, one or more semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configurations that configure multiple SPS occasions. The mobile station may receive, from the network node, a retransmission of a data packet in an unused SPS occasion, of the multiple SPS occasions. Numerous other aspects are described.
