Dynamically Selecting Beam Types for Wireless Communications - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17951201 titled 'Dynamically Selecting Beam Types for Wireless Communications

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method used by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless network to determine data for transmission between the UE and a base station (BS). The UE selects one or more antenna elements from an antenna array based on the context of the transmission and forms wireless beams using these selected antenna elements. The UE then transmits or receives data using these wireless beams.

  • The UE determines data for transmission between itself and a base station in a wireless network.
  • The UE selects one or more antenna elements from its antenna array based on the context of the transmission.
  • The UE forms wireless beams using the selected antenna elements.
  • The UE can transmit a portion of the data to the base station using the wireless beams.
  • The UE can receive a portion of the data from the base station using the wireless beams.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems such as cellular networks, Wi-Fi networks, or satellite communication systems.
  • It can improve the efficiency and reliability of data transmission between user equipment and base stations.
  • The method can be used in applications that require high-speed data transfer, such as video streaming, online gaming, or real-time communication.

Problems Solved

  • The method addresses the challenge of optimizing data transmission in wireless networks by dynamically selecting antenna elements based on the context of the transmission.
  • It solves the problem of interference and signal degradation by forming wireless beams using the selected antenna elements, which can improve the signal quality and reduce interference from other sources.

Benefits

  • The method improves the overall performance of wireless networks by optimizing data transmission between user equipment and base stations.
  • It enhances the reliability and stability of wireless connections by forming wireless beams that can better focus the signal.
  • The technology can increase the capacity and throughput of wireless networks, allowing for faster and more efficient data transfer.


Original Abstract Submitted

In an example method, a user equipment (UE) of a wireless network determines data for transmission between the UE and a base station (BS) of the wireless network; determines a context of the transmission of the data between the UE and the BS; selects, based on the context, one or more antenna elements of an antenna array of the UE; and forms one or more wireless beams using the one or more selected antenna elements. Further, the UE (i) transmits at least a first portion of the data to the BS using the one or more wireless beams, and/or (ii) receives at least a second portion of the data from the BS using the one or more wireless beams.
