INDICATING A PRESENCE OF A REPEATER VIA A MEASUREMENT REPORT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17941679 titled 'INDICATING A PRESENCE OF A REPEATER VIA A MEASUREMENT REPORT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, focusing on synchronization signal block (SSB) transmissions and repeater functionality.

  • User equipment (UE) receives control signaling from a network entity indicating the periodicity of SSB transmissions.
  • The UE receives a set of SSBs, including at least a first SSB, from a repeater that retransmits them from the network entity.
  • The UE transmits a measurement report for the first SSB to the network entity, indicating the presence of the repeater based on the periodicity of SSB transmissions and the first SSB.

Potential Applications

  • Enhancing wireless communication reliability in areas with poor coverage.
  • Improving network efficiency by optimizing SSB transmissions.

Problems Solved

  • Addressing coverage gaps in wireless networks.
  • Enhancing network performance through repeater technology.

Benefits

  • Increased network coverage and reliability.
  • Enhanced communication quality for users in challenging environments.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network entity, control signaling indicating a periodicity of synchronization signal block (SSB) transmissions. The UE may receive a set of SSBs including at least a first SSB from a repeater. The repeater may retransmit the set of SSBs from the network entity. The UE may transmit a measurement report for the first SSB to the network entity indicating a presence of the repeater based on the periodicity of SSB transmissions and a periodicity of the first SSB.
