RECONFIGURABLE INTELLIGENT SURFACE, RIS, AIDED AND NON-RIS-AIDED SIGNAL TIMING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18260411 titled 'RECONFIGURABLE INTELLIGENT SURFACE, RIS, AIDED AND NON-RIS-AIDED SIGNAL TIMING

Simplified Explanation

The method described in the abstract involves a UE transmitting requests for PRS resources based on the quality of received signals and the type of signal transfer (RIS-reflected or non-RIS-reflected).

  • The UE sends a request for PRS resources for a specific signal type based on the quality of received DL-RS signals.
  • The UE can request PRS resources specifically for RIS-reflected signal transfer by specifying a particular RIS.
  • The UE can indicate support for different PRS symbol durations for RIS-reflected and non-RIS-reflected PRS.

---

      1. Potential Applications
  • This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems to optimize resource allocation based on signal quality and signal type.
  • It can enhance the efficiency of communication in scenarios where RIS-reflected signals are utilized.
      1. Problems Solved
  • Efficient allocation of PRS resources based on signal quality and type of signal transfer.
  • Improved communication reliability by optimizing PRS symbol durations for different types of signals.
      1. Benefits
  • Enhanced communication performance by dynamically adjusting PRS allocation.
  • Increased flexibility in supporting different types of signal transfers within a network.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method includes: transmitting, from a UE, a first on-demand request for first PRS resources of a first signal type based on reception by the UE of a first DL-RS of the first signal type with at least a first threshold quality and lack of reception of a second DL-RS of a second signal type with at least a second threshold quality, one of the first and second signal types being for non-RIS-reflected signal transfer and the other signal type being for RIS-reflected signal transfer, or transmitting, from the UE, a second on-demand request for second PRS resources for RIS-reflected signal transfer, the second on-demand request specifying a first RIS of a plurality of RISes associated with a common base station; or transmitting, from the UE, a capability message indicating that the UE supports different PRS symbol durations for RIS-reflected PRS and non-RIS-reflected PRS; or any combination thereof.
