UE OPERATION WITH REDUCED POWER CONSUMPTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18161822 titled 'UE OPERATION WITH REDUCED POWER CONSUMPTION
Simplified Explanation
Methods, user equipment (UE), and base stations are described for receiving or transmitting physical downlink control channels (PDCCH) associated with a master node (MN) or a secondary node (SN). The patent application focuses on a method of operating a UE to receive PDCCHs, which involves receiving indications for the number of cells and determining the total number of PDCCH candidates on these cells over a time period. The subcarrier spacing (SCS) configuration for an active bandwidth part (BWP) on each of the cells is also considered.
- The patent application describes methods, user equipment, and base stations for receiving or transmitting physical downlink control channels (PDCCH) associated with a master node (MN) or a secondary node (SN).
- The method of operating a UE to receive PDCCHs involves receiving indications for the number of cells and determining the total number of PDCCH candidates on these cells over a time period.
- The subcarrier spacing (SCS) configuration for an active bandwidth part (BWP) on each of the cells is taken into account.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems, particularly in the reception or transmission of physical downlink control channels.
- It can be used in various network configurations, including those involving master nodes and secondary nodes.
Problems Solved
- The patent application addresses the challenge of efficiently receiving or transmitting physical downlink control channels in wireless communication systems.
- It solves the problem of determining the total number of PDCCH candidates on multiple cells over a time period, considering the subcarrier spacing configuration.
Benefits
- The described methods and equipment provide improved efficiency in receiving or transmitting physical downlink control channels.
- By considering the subcarrier spacing configuration, the technology optimizes the use of available resources and enhances overall system performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, user equipment (UE), and base stations for reception or transmission of physical downlink control channels (PDCCH) associated with a master node (MN) or with a secondary node (SN) are provided. A method of operating a UE to receive PDCCHs includes receiving an indication for a first number of cells Nand for a second number of cells N; and determining a first total number of PDCCH candidates on N cells of the MN over a time period according to Nand a second total number of PDCCH candidates on N cells of the SN over the time period according to N. μ is a subcarrier spacing (SCS) configuration for an active bandwidth part (BWP) on each of the N cells or N cells.
