CARRIER AGGREGATION FOR MIXED FREQUENCY RANGES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18463482 titled 'CARRIER AGGREGATION FOR MIXED FREQUENCY RANGES

Simplified Explanation

The patent application relates to wireless communication and specifically addresses the issue of radio link control (RLC) discontinuity in user equipment (UE). The UE is capable of communicating on two different sets of carriers in different frequency ranges (FRs). When a RLC discontinuity is detected on any of these carriers, the UE identifies the FRs in which the discontinuity occurred and transmits an RLC status report based on this information.

  • User equipment (UE) can communicate on different sets of carriers in different frequency ranges (FRs).
  • UE can detect a radio link control (RLC) discontinuity on any of these carriers.
  • UE can identify the FRs in which the RLC discontinuity occurred.
  • UE can transmit an RLC status report based on the identified FRs.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Improved wireless communication for user equipment (UE).
  • Enhanced monitoring and reporting of radio link control (RLC) discontinuities.
  • More efficient management of carrier frequencies in different frequency ranges (FRs).

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Addressing radio link control (RLC) discontinuity issues in wireless communication.
  • Identifying the frequency ranges (FRs) where RLC discontinuities occur.
  • Providing a mechanism for user equipment (UE) to transmit RLC status reports based on the identified FRs.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved reliability and performance of wireless communication.
  • Enhanced monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities for RLC discontinuities.
  • Efficient utilization of carrier frequencies in different frequency ranges (FRs).


Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may communicate on a first set of carriers in a first frequency range (FR) and a second set of carriers in a second FR. The UE may detect a radio link control (RLC) discontinuity on at least one of the first set of carriers or the second set of carriers. The UE may identify one or more FRs, of the first FR and the second FR, in which the RLC discontinuity occurred. The UE may transmit an RLC status report based at least in part on the identified one or more FRs. Numerous other aspects are described.
