RANDOM ACCESS METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18156941 titled 'RANDOM ACCESS METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method and apparatus for random access in communication systems. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:
- The application introduces a method for random access in communication systems.
- The method involves determining a correspondence between scanning periods of different scanning areas and random access occasions.
- A communication apparatus broadcasts a message containing information about this correspondence.
- Another communication apparatus receives the message and determines a random access occasion based on its location and the received message.
- The first communication apparatus then initiates random access based on the determined random access occasion.
Potential Applications
This technology has potential applications in various communication systems, including:
- Cellular networks
- Wireless communication systems
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Satellite communication systems
Problems Solved
The technology addresses the following problems in communication systems:
- Efficient utilization of resources during random access procedures
- Synchronization between scanning periods and random access occasions
- Improved reliability and accuracy in determining random access occasions
Benefits
The use of this technology offers several benefits:
- Enhanced efficiency in random access procedures
- Improved synchronization and coordination between different scanning areas
- Increased reliability and accuracy in determining random access occasions
- Better utilization of communication system resources
Original Abstract Submitted
This application discloses random access methods and communication apparatuses, and relates to the field of communication technologies. In an example method, after determining a correspondence between scanning periods of different scanning areas within coverage of a synchronization signal block (SSB) beam and random access occasions (ROs), a second communication apparatus sends, through broadcasting, a first message including information about the correspondence. A first communication apparatus receives the first message, determines an RO based on a scanning area in which the first communication apparatus is located and the first message, and initiates random access.
