METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DCI SIZE FOR MULTI-CELL SCHEDULING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18349856 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DCI SIZE FOR MULTI-CELL SCHEDULING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for determining the size of downlink control information (DCI) for multi-cell scheduling. The method involves receiving information for a set of cells and identifying combinations of cells from the set. The maximum size of a DCI format is determined based on the sizes of the combinations of cells. The DCI format is used to schedule receptions on a specific combination of cells, and the sizes correspond to the combinations of cells. The method also involves receiving the DCI format based on the maximum size.

  • The method determines the maximum size of DCI format for multi-cell scheduling.
  • It identifies combinations of cells from a set of cells.
  • The maximum size is determined based on the sizes of the combinations of cells.
  • The DCI format is used to schedule receptions on a specific combination of cells.
  • The method allows for efficient allocation of resources in multi-cell scheduling.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems with multiple cells can benefit from this method for efficient scheduling of downlink transmissions.
  • It can be applied in cellular networks to improve the performance and capacity of the network.
  • The method can be used in 5G and future wireless communication systems to optimize resource allocation.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient scheduling of downlink transmissions in multi-cell environments.
  • Optimizing resource allocation in wireless communication systems.
  • Improving the performance and capacity of cellular networks.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved efficiency in scheduling downlink transmissions.
  • Enhanced performance and capacity of wireless communication systems.
  • Better resource allocation in multi-cell environments.
  • Potential for increased data rates and reduced latency in cellular networks.


Original Abstract Submitted

Downlink control information (DCI) size determination for multi-cell scheduling. A method includes receiving first information for a set of cells, identifying first combinations of cells from the set of cells, and determining a first maximum size among first sizes of a first DCI format. The first DCI format schedules physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) receptions on a first combination of cells from the first combinations of cells, and the first sizes correspond to the first combinations of cells. The method further includes receiving the first DCI format based on the first maximum size.
