Methods of Transmitting and Receiving Additional SIB1-NB Subframes in a NB-IoT Network - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18154441 titled 'Methods of Transmitting and Receiving Additional SIB1-NB Subframes in a NB-IoT Network

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method performed by a network node for transmitting system information in a wireless communication system. The method involves transmitting a transmission of system information in a specific set of subframes, and then transmitting an additional transmission of the system information in a different set of subframes.

  • The method involves transmitting system information in a wireless communication system.
  • The transmission of system information is done in a specific set of subframes (#4) of radio frames.
  • The transmission includes coded bins obtained by reading from a circular buffer.
  • An additional transmission of the system information is transmitted in a different set of subframes.
  • The additional transmission includes additional coded bits obtained by continuing reading from the circular buffer.
  • The different set of subframes excludes subframes #4.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This method can be used in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, to efficiently transmit system information.
  • It can be applied in 5G and future generations of wireless networks to improve the efficiency of transmitting important system information.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient transmission of system information is crucial in wireless communication systems to ensure proper network operation and user experience.
  • By utilizing specific subframes for transmitting system information, this method helps optimize the use of resources and reduce interference.

Benefits of this technology:

  • The method allows for the transmission of system information in a more organized and efficient manner.
  • By using different sets of subframes, it helps avoid interference with other data transmissions in the network.
  • The use of a circular buffer enables continuous reading and transmission of system information, ensuring its availability to network nodes.


Original Abstract Submitted

According to certain embodiments, a method performed by a network node comprises transmitting a transmission of system information. The transmission comprises coded bins obtained by reading from a circular buffer. The transmission is transmitted in a first set of subframes corresponding to subframes #4 of a plurality of radio frames. The method further comprises transmitting an additional transmission of the system information. The additional transmission comprises additional coded bits obtained by continuing reading from the circular buffer. The additional transmission is transmitted in a second set of subframes corresponding to subframes of the plurality of radio frames other than subframes #4.
