NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORK COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18306150 titled 'NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORK COMMUNICATIONS

Simplified Explanation

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may obtain a first value associated with transmitting an uplink communication that corresponds to a downlink communication received in a non-terrestrial network (NTN). The UE may compare the first value to a second value. The UE may selectively transmit the uplink communication, or selectively process the downlink communication, based at least in part on a result of comparing the first value to the second value. Numerous other aspects are described.

  • User equipment (UE) can obtain a first value related to transmitting an uplink communication corresponding to a downlink communication received in a non-terrestrial network (NTN).
  • The UE compares the first value to a second value and selectively transmits the uplink communication or processes the downlink communication based on the comparison result.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in:

  • Satellite communication systems
  • Remote sensing applications
  • IoT devices in remote locations

Problems Solved

This technology helps in:

  • Efficient utilization of network resources
  • Seamless communication in non-terrestrial networks

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved communication reliability
  • Enhanced network performance
  • Optimal resource allocation

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications of this technology include:

  • Satellite communication services
  • Remote monitoring and control systems
  • Emergency communication systems

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of adaptive modulation and coding techniques in wireless communication systems to optimize transmission based on channel conditions.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact battery life in user equipment (UE)?

The impact of this technology on battery life in UE is not addressed in the abstract. It would be interesting to know if there are any power consumption implications.

What are the security implications of selectively transmitting uplink communication based on downlink communication processing?

The abstract does not mention anything about the security aspects of this technology. Understanding the potential security risks or vulnerabilities would be crucial for its implementation.
