ELECTRONIC DEVICE PERFORMING COMMUNICATION USING BANDWIDTH PART, NETWORK, AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17966824 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE PERFORMING COMMUNICATION USING BANDWIDTH PART, NETWORK, AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an electronic device that can receive and transmit data using different bandwidth parts (BWP) in a network. Here are the key points:

  • The electronic device has at least one processor.
  • It receives a message from the network that provides information about available bandwidth parts.
  • It communicates with the network using a specific bandwidth part.
  • It can request to change the bandwidth part based on a predefined event.
  • It receives a control indicator from the network indicating a change to a different bandwidth part.
  • It then communicates with the network using the new bandwidth part.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Mobile devices: This technology can be used in smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices to optimize data communication based on available bandwidth.
  • Internet of Things (IoT): IoT devices can benefit from this technology to efficiently transmit and receive data in a network.
  • Wireless communication systems: This technology can be implemented in various wireless communication systems, such as 5G networks, to improve data transmission.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient use of available bandwidth: By dynamically changing the bandwidth part based on network conditions, the electronic device can optimize data communication and utilize available resources effectively.
  • Seamless communication: The ability to switch between different bandwidth parts without interruption allows for uninterrupted communication in changing network conditions.
  • Flexibility in network configuration: The electronic device can adapt to different network configurations by changing the bandwidth part as needed.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved data transmission: By using the most suitable bandwidth part, the electronic device can achieve faster and more reliable data transmission.
  • Enhanced network performance: The ability to dynamically change the bandwidth part based on network conditions can lead to improved overall network performance.
  • Better user experience: Users of electronic devices can experience smoother and uninterrupted communication, even in areas with varying network conditions.


Original Abstract Submitted

According to various embodiments, an electronic device comprises at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to: receive, from a network, a radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration message including information about at least one bandwidth part (BWP) available to the electronic device, perform communication with the network using a first BWP among the at least one BWP, control the electronic device to transmit, to the network, a message requesting to change a BWP being used by the electronic device, based on identifying an event set for a change in BWP, receive, from the network, a downlink control indicator (DCI) indicating a change from the first BWP to a second BWP included in the at least one BWP, and perform communication with the network using the second BWP, based on the reception of the DCI.
