SUB-BANDWIDTH PART CONFIGURATIONS FOR HALF-DUPLEX AND FULL-DUPLEX COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18258500 titled 'SUB-BANDWIDTH PART CONFIGURATIONS FOR HALF-DUPLEX AND FULL-DUPLEX COMMUNICATIONS

Simplified Explanation

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in this patent application. The invention involves a user equipment (UE) receiving control signaling from a base station indicating a set of sub-bandwidth part (BWP) channel configurations for wireless communications at the UE. Each sub-BWP channel configuration in the set includes one or more sets of resources spanning at least a portion of a respective BWP in the frequency domain.

The UE also receives a control message from the base station indicating a first sub-BWP channel configuration from the set of sub-BWP channel configurations. This first sub-BWP channel configuration supports wireless communication for both full-duplex and half-duplex communication modes. The UE then communicates with the base station during a first transmission time interval (TTI) using the first sub-BWP channel configuration indicated in the control message, based on the selected full-duplex or half-duplex communication mode.

• The patent application describes a method for configuring sub-bandwidth part (BWP) channel configurations for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE).
• The method involves receiving control signaling from a base station indicating a set of sub-BWP channel configurations.
• Each sub-BWP channel configuration in the set includes one or more sets of resources spanning at least a portion of a respective BWP in the frequency domain.
• The UE also receives a control message indicating a first sub-BWP channel configuration from the set.
• The first sub-BWP channel configuration supports both full-duplex and half-duplex communication modes.
• The UE communicates with the base station during a first transmission time interval (TTI) using the first sub-BWP channel configuration based on the selected communication mode.

Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, control signaling indicating a set of sub-bandwidth part (BWP) channel configurations for wireless communications at the UE, where each sub-BWP channel configuration of the set of sub-BWP channel configurations may include one or more sets of resources spanning at least a portion of a respective BWP in the frequency domain. The UE may receive, from the base station, a control message indicating a first sub-BWP channel configuration of the set of sub-BWP channel configurations, the first sub-BWP channel configuration supporting wireless communication for a full-duplex communication mode and a half-duplex communication mode. The UE may communicate with the base station during a first transmission time interval (TTI) using the first sub-BWP channel configuration indicated via the control message and based on the full-duplex communication mode or the half-duplex communication mode.
