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.
