METHODS AND DEVICES FOR CHANNEL OCCUPANCY TIME (COT) SHARING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17943844 titled 'METHODS AND DEVICES FOR CHANNEL OCCUPANCY TIME (COT) SHARING
Simplified Explanation
Methods and systems are described for sharing channel occupancy time (COT) between two user equipment (UE) devices. Here is a simplified explanation of the patent application:
- The first UE receives a COT-sharing indicator from the second UE.
- The first UE checks if it can use a time-frequency resource within the frequency range indicated by the COT-sharing indicator.
- If the first UE can use the resource, data is transmitted with COT-sharing between the first and second UEs.
- If the first UE cannot use the resource, data is transmitted without COT-sharing in a different resource selected by the first UE.
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, to improve resource utilization and enhance communication efficiency between UEs.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient resource utilization: The technology allows UEs to share time-frequency resources based on the COT-sharing indicator, enabling better utilization of available resources. 2. Improved communication efficiency: By sharing resources, UEs can transmit data more efficiently, reducing delays and improving overall communication performance.
Benefits
1. Enhanced resource utilization: The technology optimizes the use of time-frequency resources by allowing UEs to share them when possible. 2. Improved communication performance: By enabling COT-sharing, data transmission between UEs becomes more efficient, leading to reduced delays and improved overall communication performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods and systems are provided in which a channel occupancy time (COT)-sharing indicator is received, at a first user equipment (UE), from a second UE. The first UE determines whether the first UE is able to use a time-frequency resource within a frequency range indicated by the COT-sharing indicator received from the second UE. In case that the first UE is able to use a time-frequency resource within the frequency range, data is transmitted with COT-sharing between the first UE and the second UE. In case that the first UE is unable to use a time-frequency resource within the frequency range, the data is transmitted without COT-sharing in a first resource selected by the first UE.
