SCHEDULING RESTRICTIONS DURING A GROUP-BASED MEASUREMENT FOR MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION AND RECEPTION POINTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17940613 titled 'SCHEDULING RESTRICTIONS DURING A GROUP-BASED MEASUREMENT FOR MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION AND RECEPTION POINTS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on improving reference signal measurements for multiple transmission and reception points.

  • User equipment (UE) receives information about channel measurement resources (CMRs) configured for group-based reference signal measurements for multiple TRPs.
  • The UE checks if the directional beams it uses for measuring reference signals from TRPs meet a threshold directivity gain.
  • If the beams do not meet the threshold, the UE requests a scheduling restriction for the group-based reference signal measurement time period. If they do meet the threshold, the UE requests to disable the restriction.

Potential Applications

  • Improved wireless communication performance in environments with multiple transmission and reception points.
  • Enhanced network efficiency through optimized reference signal measurements.

Problems Solved

  • Ensures accurate and reliable reference signal measurements in complex wireless communication scenarios.
  • Helps in reducing interference and improving overall network performance.

Benefits

  • Increased reliability and accuracy of reference signal measurements.
  • Enhanced network performance and efficiency.
  • Better utilization of resources leading to improved user experience.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a set of channel measurement resources (CMRs) that are configured for a group-based reference signal measurement for multiple transmission and reception points (TRPs). The UE may identify or determine whether a set of one or more directional beams used by the UE to measure reference signal transmissions from each of the multiple TRPs satisfy a threshold directivity gain. The UE may transmit a request to enable a scheduling restriction at the UE for a time period associated with the group-based reference signal measurement if the set of directional beams fail to satisfy the threshold directivity gain and may transmit a request to disable the scheduling restriction if the set of directional beams satisfy the threshold directivity gain.
