METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FAST BEAM MANAGEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18053307 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FAST BEAM MANAGEMENT
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods and apparatuses for fast beam selection in a wireless communication system.
- The method involves receiving configuration information on a set of transmission configuration information (TCI) states.
- Each TCI state is associated with downlink data and UE-specific downlink control information (DCI) and refers to at least one source reference signal (RS) with a corresponding quasi co-location (QCL).
- The method also includes receiving a TCI state update on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), decoding the update, and applying it to the reception of downlink data and corresponding UE-specific downlink assignment.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Wireless communication systems
- Mobile networks
- 5G and beyond networks
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient beam selection in wireless communication systems
- Fast and accurate configuration updates for transmission states
- Improved reception of downlink data and control information
Benefits of this technology:
- Faster and more reliable beam selection
- Improved overall performance of wireless communication systems
- Enhanced user experience in terms of data reception and network connectivity
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods and apparatuses for fast beam selection. A method for operating a user equipment (UE) includes receiving configuration information on a set of transmission configuration information (TCI) states. Each of the TCI states refers to at least one source reference signal (RS) with a corresponding quasi co-location (QCL) and is associated with downlink (DL) data and UE-specific DL control information (DCI). The method further includes receiving a TCI state update on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), decoding the TCI state update, and applying the TCI state update to a reception of DL data and a corresponding UE-specific DL assignment.
