Apparatus, Method, and Computer Program for Discovering a Group of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18036234 titled 'Apparatus, Method, and Computer Program for Discovering a Group of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an apparatus that can select and communicate with user equipment within its coverage area. It can send a searching message to covered user equipment, instructing them to send a searching result message back to the apparatus. The searching result message includes information about non-covered user equipment located outside the apparatus's coverage area but within the coverage area of the covered user equipment. The apparatus then receives the searching result message from the covered user equipment.
- The apparatus can select and communicate with multiple covered user equipment within its coverage area.
- It can send a searching message to the covered user equipment, instructing them to send a searching result message back to the apparatus.
- The searching result message includes information about non-covered user equipment located outside the apparatus's coverage area but within the coverage area of the covered user equipment.
- The apparatus receives the searching result message from the covered user equipment.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems to efficiently locate non-covered user equipment within the coverage area of covered user equipment.
- It can be used in scenarios where it is important to identify and communicate with user equipment that may be outside the direct coverage area of the apparatus.
Problems Solved
- The apparatus solves the problem of efficiently locating non-covered user equipment by leveraging the covered user equipment within its coverage area.
- It addresses the challenge of communication with user equipment that may be outside the direct coverage area of the apparatus.
Benefits
- The apparatus allows for improved communication and coordination between covered and non-covered user equipment.
- It enables the identification and communication with user equipment that may be outside the direct coverage area of the apparatus.
- The technology provides a more efficient way to locate and communicate with user equipment within a wireless communication system.
Original Abstract Submitted
The disclosure relates to an apparatus including circuitry for: selecting at least one covered user equipment among a plurality of covered user equipment inside the coverage area of the apparatus; sending, to the at least one covered user equipment, a searching message, wherein the searching message includes an indication that the at least one covered user equipment is to send a searching result message to the apparatus, wherein the searching result message includes an indication of at least one non-covered user equipment located outside the coverage area of the apparatus and inside a coverage area of the at least one covered user equipment; and receiving, from the at least one covered user equipment, the searching result message.
