ENHANCED BLOCK FLOATING POINT COMPRESSION FOR OPEN RADIO ACCESS NETWORK FRONTHAUL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17997913 titled 'ENHANCED BLOCK FLOATING POINT COMPRESSION FOR OPEN RADIO ACCESS NETWORK FRONTHAUL

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system for efficient communication between a distributing unit (DU) and a radio unit (RU) in a wireless network. The DU signals the maximum data bitwidth for downlink communication to the RU, and also transmits a bitwidth parameter for each physical resource block (PRB) used in the communication. The RU receives and processes the downlink communication based on these parameters. Similarly, for uplink communication, the DU transmits a maximum data bitwidth indication to the RU, and the RU transmits a bitwidth parameter for each PRB used in the communication. The DU receives and processes the uplink communication based on these parameters.

  • The system allows efficient communication between a DU and RU in a wireless network.
  • The DU signals the maximum data bitwidth for downlink communication to the RU.
  • The DU also transmits a bitwidth parameter for each physical resource block (PRB) used in the downlink communication.
  • The RU receives and processes the downlink communication based on the maximum data bitwidth and the bitwidth parameter for each PRB.
  • For uplink communication, the DU transmits a maximum data bitwidth indication to the RU.
  • The RU transmits a bitwidth parameter for each PRB used in the uplink communication.
  • The DU receives and processes the uplink communication based on the maximum data bitwidth and the bitwidth parameter for each PRB.

Potential Applications

  • Wireless communication systems
  • Cellular networks
  • 5G networks

Problems Solved

  • Efficient communication between DU and RU in a wireless network
  • Optimization of data bitwidth for downlink and uplink communication

Benefits

  • Improved efficiency in wireless communication
  • Enhanced performance of cellular and 5G networks
  • Better utilization of network resources


Original Abstract Submitted

A distributing unit (DU) signals a maximum IQ data bitwidth for downlink communication associated with a section identifier (ID) to a radio unit (RU). The DU signals a bitwidth parameter to the RU for the downlink communication per a physical resource block (PRB). The DU transmits and the RU receives the downlink communication based on at least one of the maximum IQ data bitwidth or the bitwidth parameter for the PRB. For uplink communications, the DU transmits a first indication of a maximum IQ data bitwidth to the RU in a C-plane message. The RU transmits a second indication of a bitwidth parameter for the uplink communication per a PRB. The RU transmits and the DU receives the uplink communication based on at least one of the maximum IQ data bitwidth or the bitwidth parameter for the PRB.
