REFERENCE SIGNAL RECEIVED POWER MEASUREMENT BASED ON PEAK OF EARLIEST PATH - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18260311 titled 'REFERENCE SIGNAL RECEIVED POWER MEASUREMENT BASED ON PEAK OF EARLIEST PATH
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method where a wireless node receives a reference signal for positioning over a bandwidth on one or more paths, including an earliest path. The node measures the received power associated with the earliest path based on the energy within the bandwidth within a certain number of samples from the peak of the earliest path.
- Wireless node receives a reference signal for positioning over a bandwidth on one or more paths.
- Measurement of received power associated with the earliest path is based on energy within the bandwidth.
- Measurement is done within a certain number of samples from the peak of the earliest path.
Potential Applications
- 5G and beyond wireless communication systems
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices requiring accurate positioning
- Autonomous vehicles for precise localization
Problems Solved
- Accurate positioning of wireless nodes
- Efficient measurement of received power for positioning
- Improved performance in crowded or noisy wireless environments
Benefits
- Enhanced positioning accuracy
- Better performance in challenging wireless conditions
- Increased reliability of wireless communication systems
Original Abstract Submitted
In an aspect, a wireless node (e.g., UE, gNB, etc.) receives a reference signal for positioning (RS-P) over a respective bandwidth on one or more paths including an earliest path, and measures a reference signal received power (RSRP) associated with the earliest path of the RS-P based on a sum of energy on the respective bandwidth within at least one number of samples from a peak of the earliest path.
