ENHANCED SCHEDULING REQUEST CONFIGURATIONS FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17944962 titled 'ENHANCED SCHEDULING REQUEST CONFIGURATIONS FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on enhanced scheduling request configurations.
- User equipment (UE) obtains information at the packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer for a data packet to be transmitted.
- The UE transmits a scheduling request indicating elapsed time since obtaining the information or if the data packet is the final packet.
- A network entity receives the scheduling request and determines scheduling information for uplink communications based on the elapsed time or final packet status.
- The network entity then transmits the scheduling information to the UE.
Potential Applications
- Enhanced scheduling request configurations can improve efficiency and reliability in wireless communications systems.
- This technology can be applied in various industries such as telecommunications, IoT, and mobile computing.
Problems Solved
- Improved scheduling request configurations help optimize resource allocation and enhance overall network performance.
- Addressing issues related to timely transmission of data packets and efficient utilization of network resources.
Benefits
- Enhanced scheduling request configurations can lead to faster data transmission and reduced latency.
- Improved network efficiency and reliability contribute to better user experience and overall system performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications systems may support enhanced scheduling request configurations. A user equipment (UE) may obtain, at a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer of the UE, information associated with a data packet for transmission by the UE. The UE may transmit a scheduling request that indicates information regarding an elapsed time period since the information associated with the data packet was obtained at the PDCP layer of the UE, or whether the data packet is a final packet of a set of data packets, or both. A network entity may receive the scheduling request and determine scheduling information for uplink communications by the UE based on the information regarding the elapsed time period, or whether the data packet is the final data packet, or both. The network entity may transmit the scheduling information to the UE.
