HANDLING OF NEW RADIO SLOT AGGREGATION IN RADIO SIDELINK CO-CHANNEL COEXISTENCE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18220147 titled 'HANDLING OF NEW RADIO SLOT AGGREGATION IN RADIO SIDELINK CO-CHANNEL COEXISTENCE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for handling NR slot aggregation in radio SL co-channel coexistence, where one or more slots of a first radio access technology overlap a subframe of a second radio access technology. The method involves determining the overlap, detecting if the second technology is using the subframe, and deciding whether to transmit in the overlapping slots based on certain conditions. Transmission is performed with the same power in all overlapping slots.

• Allows for efficient management of slot aggregation in scenarios where different radio access technologies coexist.
• Helps in avoiding interference between different technologies sharing the same frequency resources.
• Enables seamless communication and coexistence of multiple radio access technologies in a given spectrum.
• Provides a method to optimize transmission power in overlapping slots to ensure effective communication.

Potential Applications

• Wireless communication networks
• Internet of Things (IoT) devices
• 5G and beyond networks
• Smart city infrastructure

Problems Solved

• Interference between different radio access technologies
• Efficient utilization of frequency resources
• Seamless coexistence of multiple technologies in the same spectrum

Benefits

• Improved network performance
• Enhanced quality of service for users
• Optimal use of available spectrum resources
• Facilitates the deployment of diverse wireless technologies in a shared environment.

Original Abstract Submitted

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for handling NR slot aggregation in radio SL co-channel coexistence. A method may include determining that one or more slots of a first radio access technology overlaps a subframe of a second radio access technology. The method may also include detecting whether the second radio access technology is using the subframe of the second radio access technology. The method may further include determining by an outcome of at least one evaluated condition whether to transmit in the one or more overlapping slots or refrain to transmit in the one or more overlapping slots. The method may further include performing transmission with a same transmit power in all the slots that overlap the subframe of the second radio access technology.
