CHANNELS OR SIGNALS IN SUB-BANDS ASSOCIATED WITH SUB-BAND FULL DUPLEX SLOTS OR SYMBOLS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18339661 titled 'CHANNELS OR SIGNALS IN SUB-BANDS ASSOCIATED WITH SUB-BAND FULL DUPLEX SLOTS OR SYMBOLS

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure relates to wireless communication, where a user equipment (UE) receives common downlink channels or reference signals from a network node in both downlink slots/symbols and sub-band full duplex (SBFD) slots/symbols.

  • User equipment (UE) receives a first common downlink channel or reference signal in a downlink slot or symbol from a network node.
  • UE also receives a second common downlink channel or reference signal in at least one downlink sub-band associated with a sub-band full duplex (SBFD) slot or symbol.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in:

  • 5G and beyond wireless communication systems
  • IoT devices requiring efficient and reliable communication

Problems Solved

This technology helps in:

  • Improving downlink communication efficiency
  • Enhancing network reliability and coverage

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Increased data transmission rates
  • Better signal reception in challenging environments

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications of this technology include:

  • Telecommunication companies for improving network performance
  • IoT device manufacturers for enhancing connectivity

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of common downlink channels in wireless communication systems to improve signal reception and network efficiency.

Unanswered Questions

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

This article does not address the potential impact of this technology on the battery life of user equipment. It would be interesting to know if the increased data transmission rates have any effect on the power consumption of the UE.

What are the security implications of using common downlink channels in wireless communication?

The article does not discuss the security aspects of using common downlink channels. It would be important to understand if there are any vulnerabilities or risks associated with this technology in terms of data security and privacy.


Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network node, a first common downlink channel or reference signal in a downlink slot or symbol. The UE may receive, from the network node, a second common downlink channel or reference signal in at least one downlink sub-band associated with a sub-band full duplex (SBFD) slot or symbol. Numerous other aspects are described.
