SUPPORT OF FLEXIBLE PDCCH MONITORING IN NEW RADIO (NR) - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18467407 titled 'SUPPORT OF FLEXIBLE PDCCH MONITORING IN NEW RADIO (NR)
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes technology for a user equipment (UE) that can monitor a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) in a wireless communication system. The UE is able to monitor a downlink control channel for control information at specific monitoring occasions, which have a periodicity of P slots or P symbols with an offset O. The offset O is with respect to a first slot in subframe number zero (SFN #0), and P is a positive integer greater than zero.
- The technology enables a UE to monitor a specific downlink control channel for control information at predetermined monitoring occasions.
- The monitoring occasions have a periodicity of P slots or P symbols with an offset O.
- The offset O is relative to a specific slot in subframe number zero.
- The technology allows for efficient monitoring of the downlink control channel, ensuring timely reception of control information.
Potential Applications
- Wireless communication systems
- Mobile devices
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
Problems Solved
- Efficient monitoring of the downlink control channel
- Timely reception of control information
- Optimization of wireless communication systems
Benefits
- Improved performance and reliability of wireless communication systems
- Enhanced user experience with faster and more accurate control information reception
- Increased efficiency in monitoring the downlink control channel
Original Abstract Submitted
Technology for a user equipment (UE), operable for monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) is disclosed. The UE can monitor a downlink (DL) control channel for DL control information (DCI) at a predetermined monitoring occasion, wherein the predetermined monitoring occasion has a periodicity of P slots or P symbols with an offset O. The UE can monitor a downlink (DL) control channel for DL control information (DCI) at a predetermined monitoring occasion, wherein Ohas an offset with respect to a first slot in subframe number zero (SFN #0). The UE can monitor a downlink (DL) control channel for DL control information (DCI) at a predetermined monitoring occasion, wherein P is a positive integer greater than zero.
