DYNAMIC SENSOR-SHARING WITH CONFIDENCE REQUIREMENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17997640 titled 'DYNAMIC SENSOR-SHARING WITH CONFIDENCE REQUIREMENTS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It focuses on improving communication quality by reducing the transmission of unnecessary sensor data and reducing over-the-air congestion.
- The method involves a receiving user equipment (UE) identifying a measurement accuracy threshold for reporting sensor measurements.
- The receiving UE then transmits a configuration indicating the measurement accuracy threshold to a measuring UE.
- The measuring UE makes sensor measurements and identifies measurement data that satisfies the accuracy threshold.
- The measuring UE transmits the subset of measurement data that satisfies the accuracy threshold over the wireless communication link.
- The measuring UE refrains from transmitting a different subset of measurement data that does not satisfy the accuracy threshold.
Potential Applications
- Wireless communication systems
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Sensor networks
Problems Solved
- Transmission of unnecessary sensor data
- Over-the-air congestion
Benefits
- Improved communication quality
- Reduced transmission of unnecessary data
- Reduced over-the-air congestion
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems (, ), and devices (, , ) for wireless communications are described. For example, a method may include a receiving user equipment (UE) () identifying a measurement accuracy threshold associated with reporting a sensor measurement over a wireless communication link (, ) to the receiving UE (). The receiving UE () may then transmit, to a measuring UE (), a configuration indicating the measurement accuracy threshold for reporting to the receiving UE (). The measuring UE () may make sensor measurements and identify measurement data that satisfies the measurement accuracy threshold based on the received configuration. The measuring UE () may then transmit, over the wireless communication link (, ), the subset of measurement data that satisfies the measurement accuracy threshold. The measuring UE () may refrain from transmitting a different subset of measurement data that does not satisfy the measurement accuracy threshold. Thus, improving communication quality by reducing the transmission of unnecessary sensor data and reducing over-the-air congestion.
