Carrier Switching Method, Apparatus, and System for Multi-Carrier Communication - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18064174 titled 'Carrier Switching Method, Apparatus, and System for Multi-Carrier Communication
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a solution for switching between different carriers in a multi-carrier communication system. The solution involves a network device sending configuration information to a terminal, which includes information about the uplink carriers being used. The terminal can then determine the specific uplink carriers to switch from and to based on this information.
- The solution involves a network device sending configuration information to a terminal.
- The configuration information includes details about the uplink carriers being used.
- The information specifies a first uplink carrier as the one to switch from and a second uplink carrier as the one to switch to.
- At least one of the uplink carriers belongs to a cell that includes a supplementary uplink (SUL) carrier.
- The terminal can determine the specific uplink carriers to switch from and to based on the configuration information.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Multi-carrier communication systems
- Mobile networks
- Wireless communication systems
Problems solved by this technology:
- Simplifies the process of switching between carriers in a multi-carrier communication system
- Provides a solution for determining the specific uplink carriers to switch from and to
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved efficiency in multi-carrier communication systems
- Enhanced performance in mobile networks
- Simplified configuration and management of uplink carriers
Original Abstract Submitted
This application discloses a carrier switching solution for multi-carrier communication. A network device sends configuration information to a terminal. The configuration information includes first uplink carrier information and second uplink carrier information. The first uplink carrier information indicates that a first uplink carrier is an SRS switching-from uplink carrier. The second uplink carrier information indicates that a second uplink carrier is an SRS switching-to uplink carrier. At least one of the first uplink carrier and the second uplink carrier belongs to a cell including a supplementary uplink (SUL) carrier. The terminal may determine the SRS switching-from uplink carrier and the SRS switching-to uplink carrier in a plurality of configured uplink carriers based on the configuration information.
