MANAGING SIDELINK INFORMATION, CONFIGURATION, AND COMMUNICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18026784 titled 'MANAGING SIDELINK INFORMATION, CONFIGURATION, AND COMMUNICATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a user equipment (UE) and a radio access network (RAN) for managing information related to sidelink communications. The UE transmits sidelink information to the RAN to generate a sidelink configuration for the UE. If the radio connection between the UE and the RAN needs to be modified, the UE processes the sidelink information accordingly.

  • The UE sends sidelink information to the RAN for generating a sidelink configuration.
  • The UE detects the need to modify the radio connection with the RAN.
  • The UE processes the sidelink information based on the determination.
  • The RAN receives sidelink information from the UE.
  • The RAN generates a sidelink configuration for the UE using the received sidelink information.
  • The RAN determines the need to modify the radio connection with the UE.
  • The RAN processes the sidelink information in response to the determination.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems where sidelink communications are used.
  • It can be used in scenarios where devices need to establish and manage direct communication links without relying solely on the network infrastructure.

Problems Solved

  • This technology solves the problem of efficiently managing sidelink communications between user equipment and a radio access network.
  • It addresses the need for a streamlined process of transmitting sidelink information and generating sidelink configurations.

Benefits

  • The technology allows for improved management of sidelink communications, enhancing the overall efficiency of wireless communication systems.
  • It enables faster and more reliable establishment of direct communication links between devices.
  • The streamlined process reduces the complexity and overhead associated with managing sidelink communications.


Original Abstract Submitted

A user equipment (UE), for managing information related to sidelink communications, when the UE has a radio connection with a radio access network (RAN), (i) transmits (), to the RAN, sidelink information for generating, at the RAN, a sidelink configuration for the UE, (ii) determines (), subsequently to the transmitting, that the radio connection with the RAN is to be modified, and (iii) processes () the sidelink information in response to the determination. A RAN, for managing information related to sidelink communications, when a UE has a radio connection with the RAN, (i) receives (), from the UE, sidelink information, (ii) generates (), using the sidelink information, a sidelink configuration for the UE, (iii) determines () that the radio connection with the UE is to be modified, and processes () the sidelink information in response to the determination.
