System and Method for Control Channel Reception in Power Save Mode - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18150858 titled 'System and Method for Control Channel Reception in Power Save Mode

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method implemented by an access node in a wireless communication system. The method involves transmitting a wake-up signal (WUS) before a control channel occurs within a discontinuous reception (DRX) ON period. The WUS is transmitted using a first beam, and the control channel is transmitted during the DRX ON period using a second beam. Both beams share a common quasi-colocated (QCL) source.

  • The method involves transmitting a wake-up signal (WUS) before a control channel occurs within a discontinuous reception (DRX) ON period.
  • The WUS is transmitted using a first beam.
  • The control channel is transmitted during the DRX ON period using a second beam.
  • The first and second beams share a common quasi-colocated (QCL) source.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems, particularly in scenarios where discontinuous reception (DRX) is used to conserve power.
  • It can be used in various wireless networks, including cellular networks, to improve efficiency and reduce power consumption.

Problems Solved

  • The method solves the problem of efficiently transmitting a wake-up signal (WUS) and a control channel within a discontinuous reception (DRX) ON period.
  • By using separate beams for the WUS and control channel, the method ensures that both signals are transmitted effectively without interference.

Benefits

  • The use of separate beams for the wake-up signal and control channel allows for efficient transmission and reception of both signals.
  • Sharing a common quasi-colocated (QCL) source between the beams simplifies the implementation and reduces complexity.
  • The method improves the overall performance and power efficiency of wireless communication systems.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method implemented by an access node includes transmitting, by the access node, a wake up signal (WUS) prior to a control channel occurring within an associated discontinuous reception (DRX) ON period, wherein the WUS is transmitted using a first beam, and transmitting, by the access node, the control channel during the associated DRX ON period, wherein the control channel is transmitted on a control resource set (CORESET) using a second beam, wherein the first and second beams share a common quasi-colocated (QCL) source.
