BEAM FAILURE DETECTION IN FULL-DUPLEX OPERATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18546928 titled 'BEAM FAILURE DETECTION IN FULL-DUPLEX OPERATION

Simplified Explanation

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a beam failure detection (BED) reference signal set in one or more slots in a full-duplex mode and in one or more slots in a half-duplex mode. The UE may detect beam failure due to self-interference based at least in part on a comparison of measurements of the BFD reference signal set in the full-duplex mode and half-duplex mode. The UE may switch from the full-duplex mode to the half-duplex mode for slots configured for the full-duplex mode based at least in part on detecting beam failure due to self-interference. Numerous other aspects are described.

  • User equipment (UE) can receive a beam failure detection (BED) reference signal set from a base station in full-duplex and half-duplex modes.
  • The UE can detect beam failure due to self-interference by comparing measurements in both modes.
  • The UE can switch from full-duplex to half-duplex mode for affected slots upon detecting beam failure.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in:

  • Wireless communication systems
  • Mobile networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices

Problems Solved

  • Self-interference detection in wireless communication
