COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18157984 titled 'COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method and apparatus for communication between a terminal device and a network device. Here are the key points:
- The terminal device sends an uplink signal to the network device on one or more carriers.
- The network device detects the uplink signal and determines the signal strength on each carrier.
- Based on the signal strength, the network device identifies the active carrier and sends feedback information to the terminal device.
- The feedback information includes details about the active carrier.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Mobile communication networks
- Wireless internet connections
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
Problems solved by this technology:
- Accurately determining the active carrier in a multi-carrier communication system
- Ensuring efficient and reliable communication between terminal devices and network devices
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved signal strength determination for better carrier selection
- Enhanced communication performance and reliability
- Optimal utilization of available carriers for efficient data transmission.
Original Abstract Submitted
Embodiments of this application disclose a communication method and apparatus. The method includes that a terminal device sends a first uplink signal to a first network device on at least one first carrier. The method further includes that the first network device detects the first uplink signal on the at least one first carrier, determines an active carrier based on determined signal strength of the first uplink signal on the at least one first carrier, and sends first feedback information to the terminal device. The first feedback information includes information about the active carrier in the at least one first carrier. A corresponding apparatus is further provided. In this way, the signal strength of the first uplink signal sent by the terminal device on the at least one first carrier is determined, to accurately determine the information about the active carrier in the at least one first carrier.
