PATH LOSS ESTIMATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17957711 titled 'PATH LOSS ESTIMATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It focuses on a receiving wireless device located in one geographic zone receiving multiple signals from transmitting wireless devices in another geographic zone. The receiving device determines the location of the transmitting devices and the transmit power information for each signal. It then estimates the path loss of wireless communications between the two zones based on the received transmit powers. Finally, the receiving device communicates within the second geographic zone based on the estimated path loss.

  • Receiving wireless device determines the location of transmitting wireless devices in a different geographic zone
  • Transmit power information for each signal received is determined by the receiving device
  • Path loss of wireless communications between the two geographic zones is estimated based on the received transmit powers
  • Communication within the second geographic zone is done by the receiving device based on the estimated path loss

Potential Applications

  • Wireless communication systems that can determine the location of transmitting devices in different geographic zones
  • Efficient communication between different geographic zones based on estimated path loss
  • Improved wireless communication performance in multi-zone environments

Problems Solved

  • Difficulty in determining the location of transmitting devices in different geographic zones
  • Inefficient communication between different geographic zones due to lack of path loss estimation
  • Poor wireless communication performance in multi-zone environments

Benefits

  • Enhanced wireless communication system that can accurately determine the location of transmitting devices in different geographic zones
  • Efficient communication between different geographic zones based on estimated path loss, leading to improved performance
  • Better wireless communication performance in multi-zone environments, resulting in improved user experience


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Examples may include a receiving wireless device located in a first geographic zone receiving multiple signals from one or more transmitting wireless devices. The receiving wireless device may determine based on the received signals that the one or more transmitting devices are located in a second geographic zone. The receiving wireless device may determine configured transmit power information for each of the signals received from the transmitting wireless devices located in the second geographic zone. The receiving wireless device may estimate a path loss of wireless communications between the first geographic zone and the second geographic zone based on the configured transmit powers received in the signals. The receiving wireless device may communicate within the second geographic location based on the estimated path loss between the first geographic region and the second geographic region.
