POSITIONING SIGNAL MEASUREMENT WITH DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION AND WAKE-UP SIGNAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18482289 titled 'POSITIONING SIGNAL MEASUREMENT WITH DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION AND WAKE-UP SIGNAL

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes a method for configuring a user equipment (UE) to determine whether to measure a portion of a positioning signal based on the timing of the portion of the signal relative to the ON/OFF time of a discontinuous reception mode of the UE.

  • The patent application proposes a method to configure a UE to determine whether to measure a portion of a positioning signal.
  • The configuration information is transmitted to the UE.
  • The UE uses the configuration information to decide whether to measure the portion of the positioning signal.
  • The decision is based on the timing of the portion of the signal relative to the ON/OFF time of the discontinuous reception mode of the UE.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems where accurate positioning of user equipment is required.
  • It can be used in applications such as location-based services, asset tracking, and navigation systems.
  • This method can improve the accuracy and efficiency of positioning measurements in UE devices.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The method solves the problem of unnecessary measurements of positioning signals by allowing the UE to determine whether to measure a portion of the signal based on timing.
  • It helps in reducing power consumption and improving battery life of the UE by avoiding unnecessary measurements during the OFF time of the discontinuous reception mode.

Benefits of this technology:

  • The method improves the overall efficiency of positioning measurements in UE devices.
  • It reduces power consumption and extends the battery life of the UE.
  • By avoiding unnecessary measurements, it optimizes the use of network resources.
  • It enhances the accuracy of positioning measurements by allowing the UE to make informed decisions based on timing information.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of configuring a user equipment (UE) includes transmitting configuration information to the UE, the configuration information configured to cause the UE to determine whether to measure a portion of a positioning signal based on timing of the portion of the positioning signal relative to at least one of an ON time of a discontinuous reception mode of the UE or an OFF time of the discontinuous reception mode.
