TECHNIQUES FOR REFERENCE SIGNAL INTERFERENCE CANCELING OR RATE MATCHING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18399038 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR REFERENCE SIGNAL INTERFERENCE CANCELING OR RATE MATCHING

Simplified Explanation

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, information that identifies an association between a first cell of a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second cell of a second RAT. The UE may perform a measurement for the first cell. The UE may determine that the measurement for the first cell satisfies a threshold value. The UE may perform an interference canceling operation for a reference signal of the second cell, or a de-weighting operation for one or more resource elements in which the reference signal interferes, based at least in part on the determination that the measurement for the first cell satisfies the threshold value and the association between the first cell and the second cell. Numerous other aspects are described.

  • UE receives information from a base station about an association between cells of different radio access technologies.
  • UE performs a measurement for the first cell and determines if it meets a threshold value.
  • UE performs interference canceling or de-weighting operations based on the measurement and cell association.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in:

  • Cellular networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Mobile communication systems

Problems Solved

This technology helps in:

  • Improving signal quality in areas with overlapping cell coverage
  • Enhancing network efficiency by reducing interference
  • Optimizing resource allocation in heterogeneous networks

  • Enhanced user experience with better signal reception
  • Increased data transmission speeds
  • Improved overall network performance

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications of this technology include:

  • Telecommunication companies for improving network performance
  • IoT device manufacturers for better connectivity
  • Mobile network operators for optimizing resource allocation

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art for this technology could be:

  • Interference cancellation techniques in wireless communication systems

What are the specific threshold values used for determining the measurement satisfaction in the UE?

The specific threshold values used for determining the measurement satisfaction in the UE are not mentioned in the abstract. Further details may be provided in the full patent application.

How does the UE prioritize interference canceling operations for different cells in case of conflicting measurements?

The abstract does not specify how the UE prioritizes interference canceling operations for different cells in case of conflicting measurements. This aspect may be elaborated upon in the detailed description of the patent application.

The UE may perform a measurement for the first cell. The UE may determine that the measurement for the first cell satisfies a threshold value.
