CONSIDERATIONS ON CHANNEL SENSING FOR SIDELINK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17961549 titled 'CONSIDERATIONS ON CHANNEL SENSING FOR SIDELINK

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on inter-UE coordination requests and resource availability reports. A first UE receives a request from a second UE for a resource availability report, which the first UE generates based on measurements of sub-slots within a slot. The first UE then transmits this report to the second UE.

  • Explanation of the patent/innovation:

- First UE receives inter-UE coordination request from second UE. - Second UE requests a resource availability report. - First UE generates resource availability report based on measurements of sub-slots within a slot. - Report indicates at least one available slot to second UE. - First UE transmits inter-UE coordination message to second UE with the report.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in: - 5G and beyond wireless communication systems - Internet of Things (IoT) networks - Smart city infrastructure

Problems Solved

- Efficient resource allocation in wireless networks - Improved inter-UE coordination - Enhanced communication reliability

Benefits

- Increased network capacity - Reduced interference - Enhanced user experience

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimized resource allocation technology for: - Telecom companies - IoT device manufacturers - Smart city developers

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be existing methods for inter-UE coordination in wireless networks, but the specific approach of generating resource availability reports based on sub-slot measurements may be novel.

What are the technical specifications of the devices involved in this innovation?

The technical specifications of the devices involved in this innovation include the ability to measure reference signal received power values associated with demodulation reference signals in sub-slots within a slot. Additionally, the devices should be capable of transmitting inter-UE coordination messages containing resource availability reports to other UEs in the network.

How does this innovation improve resource allocation in wireless networks compared to existing methods?

This innovation improves resource allocation in wireless networks by providing a more granular and accurate assessment of resource availability within slots. By considering measurements from multiple sub-slots, the system can make more informed decisions on allocating resources, leading to improved network efficiency and performance.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first UE may receive an inter-UE coordination request from a second UE that requests a resource availability report. The first UE may generate the resource availability report indicating at least one slot that is determined to be available by the first UE based on one or more measurements associated with a plurality of sub-slots within the at least one slot. For example, the first UE may determine that a slot is available based on a reference signal received power value obtained from a measurement of demodulation reference signals associated with each of the plurality of sub-slots. The first UE may transmit an inter-UE coordination message to the second UE indicated the resource availability report.
