ITERATIVE PRECODER COMPUTATION AND COORDINATION FOR IMPROVED SIDELINK AND UPLINK COVERAGES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18255568 titled 'ITERATIVE PRECODER COMPUTATION AND COORDINATION FOR IMPROVED SIDELINK AND UPLINK COVERAGES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes a mechanism for improving uplink and sidelink coverages in a network. It involves the exchange of channel state feedback (CSF) parameters and beam coefficients between network entities to optimize beamforming.

  • The first network entity determines CSF parameters of beams associated with it and selects beam coefficients based on these parameters.
  • The selected beam coefficients are transmitted to at least a second network entity.
  • The second network entity selects beams for beamforming based on the received beam coefficients.
  • The second network entity determines CSF parameters of the selected beams and transmits them back to the first network entity.
  • The first network entity uses the received CSF parameters to select new beam coefficients.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication networks: This mechanism can be applied in various wireless communication networks, such as cellular networks, to improve uplink and sidelink coverages.
  • Internet of Things (IoT): The technology can enhance the connectivity and coverage of IoT devices, enabling more reliable and efficient communication.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Limited coverage and connectivity: By optimizing beamforming based on CSF parameters, this technology addresses the problem of limited coverage and connectivity in wireless networks.
  • Interference mitigation: The exchange of beam coefficients and CSF parameters helps in mitigating interference and improving the overall performance of the network.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved uplink and sidelink coverages: By optimizing beamforming, this technology enhances the coverage and connectivity of wireless networks, leading to improved communication quality.
  • Enhanced network performance: The exchange of beam coefficients and CSF parameters allows for better interference management, resulting in improved network performance and reliability.


Original Abstract Submitted

Aspects relate to mechanisms for improved uplink and sidelink coverages. A first network entity determines one or more channel state feedback (CSF) parameters of one or more beams associated with the first network entity, selects one or more beam coefficients based on the one or more CSF parameters, and transmits the one or more beam coefficients to at least a second network entity. The second network entity selects one or more beams for beaming forming based on the one or more beam coefficients, determines one or more CSF parameters of the one or more beams associated with the second network entity, and transmits the one or more CSF parameters of the one or more beams associated with the second network entity to the first network entity. The first network entity selects one or more new beam coefficients based on the one or more CSF parameters from the second network entity.
