SECONDARY CELL GROUP (SCG) ACTIVATION AND DEACTIVATION AT SECONDARY NODE (SN) ADDITION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18039408 titled 'SECONDARY CELL GROUP (SCG) ACTIVATION AND DEACTIVATION AT SECONDARY NODE (SN) ADDITION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network. The method involves receiving a request from a master node (MN) that includes a configuration and mode of operation for a secondary cell group (SCG). The UE determines the mode of operation of the SCG based on the received indication and decides whether to perform random access or delay it accordingly.

  • The method is performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network.
  • The UE receives a request from a master node (MN) that includes the configuration and mode of operation for a secondary cell group (SCG).
  • Based on the received indication, the UE determines the mode of operation of the SCG.
  • The UE then decides whether to perform random access or delay it based on the mode of operation of the SCG.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied in various wireless communication networks, such as 5G or beyond, where secondary cell groups are used.
  • It can be used in scenarios where efficient management of random access procedures is required.

Problems Solved

  • The method solves the problem of determining the mode of operation of a secondary cell group based on the received indication.
  • It addresses the issue of deciding whether to perform random access or delay it based on the mode of operation of the secondary cell group.

Benefits

  • The method allows for efficient management of random access procedures in a wireless communication network.
  • It enables the user equipment to make informed decisions regarding random access based on the mode of operation of the secondary cell group.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method performed by a user equipment, UE, includes receiving a request from a master node, MN, including a secondary cell group, SCG, configuration and a mode of operation of the SCG. The method includes determining the mode of operation of the SCG based on the indication of the mode of operation of the SCG. The method includes determining whether to perform random access or to delay performing random access based on the mode of operation of the SCG. UE apparatuses, computer programs, and computer program products are also provided.
