METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DYNAMIC PDCCH MONITORING GROUPS SWITCHING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17997121 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DYNAMIC PDCCH MONITORING GROUPS SWITCHING
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an apparatus for wireless communication that includes a User Equipment (UE) and a base station. The base station can transmit a configuration to the UE for monitoring different sets of search spaces. This configuration includes multiple PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel) monitoring groups.
- The base station can determine which PDCCH monitoring group to send a PHCCH (Physical Hybrid Control Channel) and transmit the PDCCH to the UE.
- The UE can determine which search spaces to monitor based on the PDCCH monitoring group it belongs to.
- The UE can switch between different PDCCH monitoring groups based on a condition or an indication from the base station.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Wireless communication systems
- Cellular networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Mobile devices
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient monitoring of different sets of search spaces
- Flexibility in switching between different PDCCH monitoring groups
- Optimization of wireless communication performance
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved reliability and performance of wireless communication
- Enhanced flexibility and adaptability in monitoring different search spaces
- Efficient utilization of network resources
Original Abstract Submitted
The apparatus of wireless communication includes a UE and a base station. The base station may transmit, to the UE, a configuration for a plurality of PDCCH monitoring groups for monitoring different sets of search spaces. The plurality of PDCCH monitoring groups may include a first PDCCH monitoring group with a first number of PDCCH monitoring occasions and a second PDCCH monitoring group with a second number of PDCCH monitoring occasions different from the first number. The base station may determine which PDCCH monitoring group to send a PHCCH, and transmit the PDCCH to the UE. The UE may determine to monitor search spaces of the PDCCH monitoring group, and monitor search spaces corresponding to the PDCCH monitoring group. The UE may switch between the first and second PDCCH monitoring groups based on a condition or an indication from the base station.
