METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING UPLINK CONTROL INFORMATION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18165223 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING UPLINK CONTROL INFORMATION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a communication technique that combines a 5G system with IoT technology to support higher data rates. Here are the key points:

  • The technique involves transmitting configuration information of one or more serving cells operating in an unlicensed band to a terminal.
  • It also includes transmitting information indicating that both an uplink control channel and an uplink data channel can be simultaneously transmitted to the terminal.
  • The technique determines whether the terminal is capable of transmitting data and uplink control information through the uplink data channel in either a licensed band or the unlicensed band.
  • Based on this determination, the technique receives the uplink control information in either the licensed band or the unlicensed band.
  • The configuration information includes details on how to configure the uplink control channel in the serving cells operating in the unlicensed band.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This communication technique can be used in various IoT applications that require high data rates, such as smart cities, industrial automation, and healthcare.
  • It can enable seamless connectivity and efficient data transmission in environments where both licensed and unlicensed bands are utilized.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The technique addresses the challenge of combining a 5G communication system with IoT technology to support higher data rates.
  • It solves the problem of efficiently transmitting both uplink control information and data in a simultaneous manner.
  • It also solves the problem of configuring the uplink control channel in serving cells operating in the unlicensed band.

Benefits of this technology:

  • The communication technique allows for higher data rates, improving the overall performance of IoT applications.
  • It enables simultaneous transmission of uplink control information and data, reducing latency and improving efficiency.
  • The technique provides flexibility by supporting both licensed and unlicensed bands, allowing for optimal utilization of available spectrum resources.


Original Abstract Submitted

A communication technique for combining a 5G communication system for supporting a higher data rate after 4G system with IoT technology includes transmitting configuration information of one or more serving cells that operate in an unlicensed band to a terminal, transmitting information indicating that an uplink control channel and an uplink data channel can be simultaneously transmitted to the terminal, determining whether the terminal is configured to transmit at least one of data and the uplink control information through the uplink data channel in at least one of a licensed band and the unlicensed band, and receiving the uplink control information in at least one of the licensed band and the unlicensed band on the basis of the determination, wherein the configuration information includes unlicensed-band uplink control channel configuration information for configuring the uplink control channel in one of the serving cells that operate in the unlicensed band.
