SIDELINK RESOURCE SELECTION FOR DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18049048 titled 'SIDELINK RESOURCE SELECTION FOR DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes a wireless communication system where a first user equipment (UE) provides information about sidelink resources or slots to a physical layer from a higher layer. This information indicates which resources or slots are active during a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle of a second UE or destination identifier (ID), and which ones are inactive. The first UE then uses this information to transmit a sidelink communication to the second UE or other UEs associated with the destination ID.

  • The first UE provides information about sidelink resources or slots to the physical layer.
  • This information indicates which resources or slots are active during a DRX cycle of a second UE or destination ID.
  • The first UE uses this information to transmit a sidelink communication to the second UE or other UEs associated with the destination ID.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems
  • Sidelink communication between user equipment

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient utilization of sidelink resources during a DRX cycle
  • Improved communication reliability between UEs

Benefits of this technology:

  • Optimal allocation of sidelink resources during a DRX cycle
  • Enhanced communication performance and reliability


Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first user equipment (UE) may provide, to a physical layer from a higher layer, an indication of a set of sidelink resources or slots that are for an active time of a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle of a second UE or destination identifier (ID) and that are not for an inactive time of the DRX cycle of the second UE or destination ID. The first UE may transmit, to the second UE or one or more UEs associated with the destination ID, a sidelink communication that is based at least in part on the set of sidelink resources or slots. Numerous other aspects are described.
