SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SCHEDULING IN A TDD SYSTEM BASED ON UE SPECIFIC DL-UL GAP REQUIREMENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18038814 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SCHEDULING IN A TDD SYSTEM BASED ON UE SPECIFIC DL-UL GAP REQUIREMENTS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for systems and methods that schedule downlink and uplink transmissions to wireless communication devices in a Time Division Duplexing (TDD) system. These systems and methods consider the downlink-to-uplink gap requirements of the wireless communication devices.

  • The method involves obtaining path delay requirements of multiple wireless communication devices.
  • The downlink-to-uplink gap requirements of the devices are determined based on their path delay requirements.
  • Scheduling for the devices is performed based on their downlink-to-uplink gap requirements.

Potential Applications

  • Wireless communication networks
  • Cellular networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Smart devices and appliances

Problems Solved

  • Efficient scheduling of downlink and uplink transmissions in TDD systems
  • Meeting the path delay requirements of wireless communication devices
  • Optimizing the use of available bandwidth and resources

Benefits

  • Improved performance and reliability of wireless communication systems
  • Enhanced network capacity and efficiency
  • Reduced interference and latency in TDD systems
  • Better utilization of available spectrum resources


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods for scheduling downlink and/or uplink transmissions to wireless communication devices in a Time Division Duplexing (TDD) system that take into account downlink-to-uplink gap requirements of the wireless communication devices are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method performed by a network node for scheduling downlink and/or uplink transmissions to a plurality of wireless communication devices in a TDD system comprises obtaining path delay requirements (e.g., timing advance requirements) of a plurality of wireless communication devices, determining downlink-to-uplink gap requirements of the plurality of wireless communication devices based on the path delay requirements of the plurality of wireless communication devices, and performing scheduling for the plurality of wireless communication devices based on the downlink-to-uplink gap requirements of the plurality of wireless communication devices.
