METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORK MOBILITY IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18448038 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORK MOBILITY IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application relates to a method for a user equipment (UE) in a non-terrestrial network (NTN) to perform cell reselection based on assistance information received from the network.

  • Assistance information includes ephemeris information on neighboring cells.
  • The assistance information is included in a system information block (SIB) broadcast by serving or neighboring cells.

      1. Potential Applications
  • Next-generation communication systems like 5G or 6G networks.
  • Non-terrestrial networks for satellite communication.
      1. Problems Solved
  • Efficient cell reselection in non-terrestrial networks.
  • Improved data transmission rates in high-speed communication systems.
      1. Benefits
  • Enhanced network performance.
  • Seamless handover between cells.
  • Optimal utilization of neighboring cell resources.


Original Abstract Submitted

The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. Disclosed herein is a method of a user equipment (UE) for non-terrestrial network (NTN) the method comprising: receiving, from a network, assistance information related to the non-terrestrial network (NTN) for cell reselection; and performing a measurement on a neighbouring cell for the cell reselection based on the assistance information, wherein the assistance information includes ephemeris information on the neighbouring cell. In the embodiments, the assistance information is included in a system information block (SIB) broadcast by at least one of a serving cell or the neighbouring cell.
