METHODS FOR TIMING ADVANCE INDICATION AND TIMING RELATIONSHIPS INDICATION FOR NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18239996 titled 'METHODS FOR TIMING ADVANCE INDICATION AND TIMING RELATIONSHIPS INDICATION FOR NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORKS

Simplified Explanation

Abstract

A method is described for enabling communication between a user equipment (UE) and a non-terrestrial network (NTN). The UE is able to calculate a timing advance compensation, which can be either differential or full. An offset value, K, is indicated to the UE and is used for timing relationships.

Patent/Innovation Explanation

  • The method enables communication between a user equipment and a non-terrestrial network.
  • The user equipment is capable of calculating a timing advance compensation.
  • The timing advance compensation can be either differential or full.
  • An offset value, K, is provided to the user equipment.
  • The offset value is used for timing relationships.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied in satellite communication systems, allowing user equipment to connect to non-terrestrial networks.
  • It can be used in remote areas where terrestrial networks are not available, providing connectivity through non-terrestrial networks.
  • The method can be utilized in Internet of Things (IoT) applications, enabling devices to communicate with non-terrestrial networks for data transmission.

Problems Solved

  • Enables communication between user equipment and non-terrestrial networks, overcoming limitations of terrestrial networks in certain areas.
  • Provides a method for user equipment to calculate timing advance compensation, ensuring accurate timing synchronization with the non-terrestrial network.
  • Offers a solution for establishing reliable communication links in remote or underserved regions where terrestrial networks are not feasible.

Benefits

  • Enhanced connectivity options for user equipment in areas with limited or no terrestrial network coverage.
  • Improved timing synchronization between user equipment and non-terrestrial networks, leading to more reliable and efficient communication.
  • Enables the expansion of IoT applications to remote locations, facilitating data transmission through non-terrestrial networks.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of enabling communication between a user equipment (UE) and a non-terrestrial network (NTN), is described. The UE may be able to calculate a timing advance compensation. The timing advance compensation may be a differential or full timing advance compensation. An offset value, K, may be indicated to the UE. The Kvalue may be used for timing relationships.
