METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR S-SSB TRANSMISSION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18066942 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR S-SSB TRANSMISSION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method and apparatus for user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system. Here are the key points:
- The UE receives a set of higher layer parameters that include configuration information for sidelink synchronization signals and physical sidelink broadcast channel (S-SS/PSBCH) block.
- Based on the configuration information, the UE determines the number of transmitted S-SS/PSBCH blocks (N), the offset for transmitted S-SS/PSBCH blocks (O), and the interval for transmitted S-SS/PSBCH blocks (D).
- The UE also determines a set of slots that contain the transmitted S-SS/PSBCH blocks within a transmission period.
- The index of a slot in the set of slots is determined based on O+I*D, where I is an index of the S-SS/PSBCH block.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Wireless communication systems: This method and apparatus can be applied in various wireless communication systems to improve the efficiency and reliability of sidelink synchronization signals and physical sidelink broadcast channel transmission.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Synchronization and broadcast channel configuration: The method and apparatus provide a solution for configuring and transmitting sidelink synchronization signals and physical sidelink broadcast channel blocks in a wireless communication system.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved efficiency: By determining the number of transmitted blocks, offset, and interval, the method and apparatus optimize the transmission of sidelink synchronization signals and physical sidelink broadcast channel blocks, leading to improved efficiency in wireless communication systems.
- Enhanced reliability: The accurate determination of slots containing the transmitted blocks ensures reliable transmission of sidelink synchronization signals and physical sidelink broadcast channel blocks, enhancing the overall reliability of the wireless communication system.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method and apparatus of a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system are provided. The method and apparatus comprise: receiving a set of higher layer parameters including configuration information for sidelink synchronization signals and physical sidelink broadcast channel (S-SS/PSBCH) block; determining, based on the configuration information for the S-SS/PSBCH block, a number of transmitted S-SS/PSBCH blocks (N), an offset for transmitted S-SS/PSBCH blocks (O), and an interval for transmitted S-SS/PSBCH blocks (D); and determining a set of slots containing the transmitted S-SS/PSBCH blocks within a period for a transmission of the S-SS/PSBCH block, wherein an index of a slot in the set of slots is determined based on O+I*D, where Iis an index of the S-SS/PSBCH block with 0≤I≤N−1.
