TECHNIQUES FOR USING SENSOR INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18510272 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR USING SENSOR INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications where a user equipment (UE) receives information associated with a base station via a sensor included within the UE, such as a camera. The UE may then perform a beam management procedure based on the received information to track a UE beam corresponding to a base station beam and communicate with the base station.
- User equipment (UE) receives information from a base station via a sensor, like a camera.
- The information may include environment information identifying an antenna of the base station.
- UE performs a beam management procedure to track a UE beam corresponding to a base station beam.
- Communication with the base station is based on the beam management procedure.
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in:
- Wireless communication systems
- 5G networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
Problems Solved
This technology helps in:
- Improving beam management in wireless communications
- Enhancing communication efficiency between UEs and base stations
Benefits

Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, via a sensor included within the UE, information associated with a base station. For instance, the UE may receive, via a camera included within the UE, an image of the base station. In some cases, the information associated with the base station may also include environment information identifying an antenna of the base station. The UE may then perform, based on the received information, a beam management procedure to track a UE beam corresponding to a base station beam, and communicate with the base station based on the beam management procedure.
