Control Of Transmission Of Mobility Reference Signals - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18532467 titled 'Control Of Transmission Of Mobility Reference Signals

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application related to a system where a first access node identifies multiple Mobility Reference Signals (MRSs) associated with it and determines the identity of a second mobility beam associated with a neighboring access node. The first access node then controls the transmission of MRSs by requesting the second access node to transmit a reference signal for mobility on the second mobility beam.

  • The first access node identifies multiple MRSs associated with it.
  • The first access node determines the identity of a neighboring mobility beam.
  • The first access node requests the neighboring access node to transmit a reference signal for mobility on the neighboring mobility beam.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in wireless communication systems to improve handover procedures between different access nodes.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient handover management between access nodes. 2. Seamless mobility for users moving between coverage areas.

Benefits

1. Enhanced network performance. 2. Improved user experience with uninterrupted connectivity.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing handover procedures in 5G networks for better user experience.

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to handover optimization techniques in wireless communication systems.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact network latency during handover procedures?

The abstract does not provide information on the potential impact of this technology on network latency during handover processes.

What are the security implications of transmitting reference signals for mobility between access nodes?

The abstract does not address the security aspects of transmitting mobility reference signals between access nodes.


Original Abstract Submitted

A first access node obtains () an identity of a plurality of MRSs associated with the first access node determines () an identity of a second mobility beam associated with a second access node, which second mobility beam is a neighbour mobility beam to a first mobility beam associated with the first access node, wherein the identity of the second mobility beam is determined based on a neighbour relation between the second mobility beam and the first mobility beam, and controls the transmission of MRSs by transmitting (), to the second access node, a request to transmit a reference signal for mobility comprised in the plurality of MRSs, on the second mobility beam, and wherein the request comprises a respective identity of one or more MRSs comprised in the plurality of MRSs, which respective identity is based on the identity of the plurality of MRSs, and the identity of the second mobility beam.
