TECHNIQUES FOR RETRANSMISSION WITH COMPONENT CARRIER SWITCHING CONFIGURATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18051154 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR RETRANSMISSION WITH COMPONENT CARRIER SWITCHING CONFIGURATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for retransmitting uplink transmissions in a wireless communication system. Here are the key points:

  • The method involves receiving a retransmission request from a base station, which includes a value indicating the slot of the uplink transmission to be retransmitted.
  • The value is based on whether switching component carriers (CCs) is allowed and determines the slot according to either the first numerology of the first CC or the second numerology of the second CC.
  • Based on the retransmission offset value, the method involves transmitting the retransmission of the uplink transmission in the specified slot.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, to improve the reliability of uplink transmissions.
  • It can be used in scenarios where retransmissions are necessary due to errors or signal degradation, ensuring the successful delivery of data.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The method addresses the challenge of efficiently retransmitting uplink transmissions in a wireless communication system.
  • By considering the numerology of different component carriers and allowing switching between them, the method optimizes the retransmission process and improves overall system performance.

Benefits of this technology:

  • The method allows for more flexibility in retransmitting uplink transmissions by considering different numerologies.
  • It enhances the reliability and efficiency of uplink transmissions, leading to improved communication quality and user experience.
  • By optimizing the retransmission process, the method helps to reduce network congestion and improve overall system capacity.


Original Abstract Submitted

Aspects described herein relate to receiving, from a base station, a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) retransmission request including a HARQ retransmission offset value indicating a slot of an uplink transmission to be retransmitted, wherein the HARQ retransmission offset value indicates, based at least in part on whether switching component carriers (CCs) is permitted, the slot according to either a first numerology of a first CC or a second numerology of a second CC, and transmitting, to the base station based on the HARQ retransmission offset value, a retransmission of the uplink transmission in the slot.
