DYNAMIC PDCCH SKIPPING FOR EXTENDED REALITY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18363615 titled 'DYNAMIC PDCCH SKIPPING FOR EXTENDED REALITY

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and apparatus for dynamic PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel) skipping for XR (eXtended Reality) applications. The apparatus receives a configuration for PDCCH skipping, which is a technique used in wireless communication systems to reduce the overhead associated with control channel signaling. Based on this configuration, the apparatus determines whether to monitor a DCI (Downlink Control Information) during the PDCCH skipping procedure. The apparatus may also transmit a UE (User Equipment) capability report indicating that the UE supports dynamic monitoring behavior for the DCI that schedules a retransmission during a PDCCH skipping period. Additionally, the apparatus may monitor a non-scheduling DCI based on a PDCCH monitoring adaptation indication. Overall, the invention enables efficient control channel signaling for XR applications by dynamically adapting the monitoring behavior during PDCCH skipping periods.

  • The apparatus receives a PDCCH skipping configuration.
  • The apparatus receives an indication to perform a PDCCH skipping procedure based on the configuration.
  • The apparatus determines whether to monitor a DCI during the PDCCH skipping procedure based on the configuration.
  • The apparatus can transmit a UE capability report indicating support for dynamic monitoring behavior during PDCCH skipping periods.
  • The apparatus can monitor a non-scheduling DCI based on a PDCCH monitoring adaptation indication.
  • The apparatus enables efficient control channel signaling for XR applications by dynamically adapting monitoring behavior during PDCCH skipping periods.

Potential Applications

  • Wireless communication systems for XR applications, such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR).
  • 5G and future generations of wireless networks that support XR applications.
  • Mobile devices and user equipment used for XR experiences.

Problems Solved

  • Reducing the overhead associated with control channel signaling in wireless communication systems.
  • Enabling efficient and optimized transmission of control information for XR applications.
  • Improving the overall performance and user experience of XR applications in wireless networks.

Benefits

Original Abstract Submitted

Method and apparatus for dynamic PDCCH skipping for XR. The apparatus receives a PDCCH skipping configuration. The apparatus receives an indication to perform a PDCCH skipping procedure based on the PDCCH skipping configuration. The apparatus determines to monitor a DCI during the PDCCH skipping procedure based on the PDCCH skipping configuration. The apparatus may transmit a UE capability report indicating that the UE supports a dynamic behavior of monitoring for the DCI that schedules a retransmission during a PDCCH skipping period. The apparatus may monitor a non-scheduling DCI based PDCCH monitoring adaptation indication. The apparatus may perform a dynamic behavior of monitoring for the DCI that schedules a retransmission during a PDCCH skipping period.
