APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TIME DOMAIN BANDWIDTH PART (TD-BWP) SWITCHING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17944391 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TIME DOMAIN BANDWIDTH PART (TD-BWP) SWITCHING

Simplified Explanation

The patent application relates to implementing a time domain bandwidth part (TD-BWP) switch for balancing between UE power consumption and latency.

  • UE configured to add padding bits to a transport block to reach a predetermined slot capacity for one transmission time interval (TTI) based on UE traffic conditions.
  • UE transmits the TB over the TTI to the base station and receives a message to change TD-BWP based on the received message.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in wireless communication systems to optimize power consumption and latency for user equipment.

Problems Solved

1. Balancing power consumption and latency in UE devices. 2. Efficient utilization of bandwidth resources in wireless networks.

Benefits

1. Improved power efficiency for UE devices. 2. Reduced latency in data transmission. 3. Enhanced bandwidth utilization for better network performance.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing UE power consumption and latency in 5G networks.


Original Abstract Submitted

Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing time domain bandwidth part (TD-BWP) switch for balancing between the UE power consumption and a latency of the UE. For example, a UE can be configured to add a plurality of padding bits to a transport block (TB) to reach a predetermined slot capacity for one transmission time interval (TTI) associated with UE traffic in response to determining that a parameter associated with the UE traffic meets a condition. The UE can be further configured to transmit the TB over the TTI to the base station and receive a message from the base station. The UE is further configured to change a time domain bandwidth part (TD-BWP) based on the received message.
