TIMING ADVANCE INDICATION FOR MULTI-PANEL UPLINK TRANSMISSION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17995575 titled 'TIMING ADVANCE INDICATION FOR MULTI-PANEL UPLINK TRANSMISSION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It addresses the issue of signaling multiple timing advance values from a base station to a user equipment (UE), which can result in large overhead.
- The UE can communicate with multiple transmission and reception points (TRPs) associated with a base station using multiple panels, with each panel having a different timing advance value.
- The base station and the UE support methods and algorithms for deriving multiple timing advance values from a single timing advance value.
- The base station transmits a timing advance value to the UE, and the UE derives a timing advance value for each panel based on the received timing advance value and the timing of downlink signals received at each panel.
Potential Applications
- Wireless communication systems
- Mobile networks
- Cellular networks
Problems Solved
- Reducing overhead associated with signaling multiple timing advance values from a base station to a UE
- Efficient communication between the base station and the UE in wireless networks
Benefits
- Reduced signaling overhead
- Improved efficiency in wireless communication
- Enhanced performance and reliability of mobile and cellular networks
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may communicate with a multiple transmission and reception points (TRPs) associated with a base station using multiple panels and each panel of the UE may be associated with a different timing advance value Signaling of multiple timing advance values from the base station to the UE may be associated with large overhead. In some implementations of the present disclosure, the base station and the UE may support methods and algorithms for deriving multiple timing advance values from a single timing advance value. For example, the base station may transmit a timing advance value to the UE and the UE may derive a timing advance value for each panel of the UE based on the received timing advance value and a timing of downlink signals received at each of the panels of the UE.
