METHODS AND NODES FOR IAB INTER-DONOR MULTI-PARENT RESOURCE COORDINATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18262235 titled 'METHODS AND NODES FOR IAB INTER-DONOR MULTI-PARENT RESOURCE COORDINATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for resource coordination in an Integrated Access Backhaul (IAB) node connected to multiple parent and donor nodes.

  • The method involves sending a resource configuration indication to a donor node, receiving a request for a resource configuration from the donor node, and determining a final resource configuration for the IAB node based on the received information.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in wireless communication networks to optimize resource allocation and coordination between different nodes, improving overall network performance and efficiency.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient resource coordination in complex network topologies. 2. Optimizing resource allocation in multi-node setups.

Benefits

1. Improved network performance. 2. Enhanced resource utilization. 3. Streamlined communication between nodes.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing resource allocation in 5G networks, improving data transmission efficiency in IoT networks, enhancing connectivity in smart city infrastructure.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art in resource allocation and coordination in wireless networks may include methods for dynamic spectrum sharing, interference management, and network optimization techniques.

Unanswered Questions

How does this method handle network scalability?

The abstract does not specify how the method adapts to changes in network size or complexity. It would be important to understand how the resource coordination scales with the network's growth.

What security measures are in place to protect the resource configuration data?

The abstract does not mention any security protocols for safeguarding the resource configuration information exchanged between nodes. Understanding the security measures in place is crucial for ensuring the integrity of the network.


Original Abstract Submitted

There is provided a method for resource coordination in a first donor Integrated Access Backhaul (IAB) node connected to a first parent IAB node which is connected to an IAB node, the IAB node further being connected to a second parent IAB node which is connected to a second donor IAB node. The method comprises: sending, to the second donor IAB node, an indication of a first resource configuration for the IAB node, the first resource configuration determined by the first donor IAB node; receiving, from the second donor IAB node, a request for a second resource configuration for the IAB node; and determining a resource configuration for the IAB node based at least on one of the first resource configuration and the second resource configuration.
