This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18354503 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR INTERPRETING DOWNLINK CONTROL INFORMATION (DCI) FIELDS IN CODEBOOK-BASED MULTI-PANEL DEPLOYMENTS WITH DYNAMIC PANEL SWITCHING

Simplified Explanation

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in this patent application. The invention focuses on the configuration and interpretation of certain parameters in a wireless network. Here are the key points:

  • The patent application describes mechanisms for configuring parameters in a wireless network entity and interpreting downlink control information (DCI) fields in user equipment (UE).
  • The network entity can configure values for maxRank (maximum rank) and maximum number of ports, which are used in the communication process.
  • The UE can interpret the DCI fields to identify and determine information associated with a codebook-based uplink shared channel message.
  • The interpretation of the DCI fields can vary based on the indicated quantity of maxRank values or maximum number of ports values.
  • The UE supports different interpretations of the DCI fields depending on the indicated quantity of maxRank values or maximum number of ports values.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, Wi-Fi networks, and other wireless networks.
  • It can be used in devices like smartphones, tablets, laptops, and IoT devices that rely on wireless communication.

Problems Solved:

  • The invention addresses the need for efficient configuration and interpretation of parameters in wireless networks.
  • It solves the problem of correctly identifying and determining information associated with a codebook-based uplink shared channel message.

Benefits:

  • The technology improves the overall performance and efficiency of wireless communication systems.
  • It allows for flexible configuration and interpretation of parameters, enhancing the adaptability of the network.
  • The invention enables better utilization of network resources and improves the reliability of wireless communication.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) and a network entity may support one or more configuration- or signaling-based mechanisms according to which the network entity may configure one or more maxRank values and maximum number of ports values and according to which the UE may interpret one more downlink control information (DCI) fields to identify, ascertain, or otherwise determine information associated with a codebook (CB)-based uplink shared channel message. For example, the UE may support a first interpretation of DCI fields if a first quantity of maxRank values or maximum number of ports values are indicated and may support a second interpretation of DCI fields if a second quantity of maxRank values or maximum number of ports values are indicated.
