METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR SECONDARY CELL BEAM RECOVERY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18243417 titled 'METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR SECONDARY CELL BEAM RECOVERY
Simplified Explanation
The patent application is about a wireless network system that helps in configuring and implementing secondary cell beam failure recovery procedures. Here are the key points:
- The patent application describes a user equipment (UE) that has radio front end circuitry and processor circuitry.
- The processor circuitry is designed to detect misalignment of a first beam associated with a secondary cell (SCell).
- The first beam is connected to a first reference signal (RS).
- The processor circuitry can configure a beam failure recovery (BFR) procedure for the SCell.
- The BFR procedure replaces the misaligned first beam with a second beam that is associated with the SCell.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Wireless communication networks
- Cellular networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Mobile devices
Problems solved by this technology:
- Misalignment of beams in a wireless network can cause communication issues and reduce network performance.
- This technology helps in detecting and recovering from beam failures, ensuring uninterrupted communication.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved network performance and reliability
- Enhanced user experience with uninterrupted communication
- Efficient management of secondary cell beam failures
Original Abstract Submitted
Some embodiments of this disclosure include systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media for use in a wireless network for configuring and implementing secondary cell beam failure recovery procedures. For example, some embodiments are directed to a user equipment (UE) that includes radio front end circuitry and processor circuitry coupled to the radio front end circuitry. The processor circuitry can be configured to detect that a first beam associated with a secondary cell (SCell) is misaligned. The first beam is associated with a first reference signal (RS). The processor circuitry can further be configured to configure a beam failure recovery (BFR) procedure for the SCell and perform the BFR procedure to replace the first beam with a second beam, wherein the second beam is associated with the SCell.
