ENHANCED PUCCH TRANSMISSION FOR REPETITION OR FREQUENCY HOPPING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18534541 titled 'ENHANCED PUCCH TRANSMISSION FOR REPETITION OR FREQUENCY HOPPING

Simplified Explanation

The apparatus described in the patent application receives and transmits PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel) signals based on a PUCCH resource configuration, which includes parameters like repetition configuration and inter-slot frequency hopping.

  • The apparatus receives a PUCCH resource configuration associated with a PUCCH resource.
  • The PUCCH resource configuration includes parameters like repetition configuration and inter-slot frequency hopping.
  • The configuration is independent of PUCCH formats and can override PUCCH format configurations.
  • The apparatus transmits a PUCCH signal based on the received configuration.
  • The apparatus may also receive a DCI (Downlink Control Information) and/or a MAC-CE (MAC Control Element) associated with the PUCCH resource configuration.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems, particularly in optimizing the transmission of control signals in uplink channels.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient utilization of resources in transmitting PUCCH signals. 2. Flexibility in configuring PUCCH resources based on specific requirements.

Original Abstract Submitted

The apparatus receives a PUCCH resource configuration associated with a PUCCH resource. The PUCCH resource configuration indicates at least one of a PUCCH resource repetition configuration or a PUCCH resource inter-slot frequency hopping configuration for the PUCCH resource that is independent of PUCCH formats. In addition, the apparatus transmits a PUCCH in the PUCCH resource based on the at least one of the PUCCH resource repetition configuration or the PUCCH resource inter-slot frequency hopping configuration configured in the PUCCH resource configuration. The received PUCCH resource configuration may override a PUCCH format configuration. The apparatus may receive a DCI indicating the PUCCH resource and/or a MAC-CE associated with the PUCCH resource configuration, and may transmit the PUCCH based on the received DCI/MAC-CE.
