CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION CONCATENATION AND ANTENNA PORT MEASUREMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240097767 titled 'CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION CONCATENATION AND ANTENNA PORT MEASUREMENT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes apparatuses, systems, and methods for measuring and reporting channel state information in wireless network systems.

  • Memory stores rank indicator (RI), precoding matrix index (PMI), and channel quality indicator (CQI) for a user equipment (UE).
  • Circuitry concatenates RI, PMI, and CQI to produce a concatenated CSI element.
  • Generates a CSI report with the concatenated CSI element and transmits it to a base station in a single slot.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in:

  • 5G and future wireless communication systems
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices

Problems Solved

  • Efficient measurement and reporting of channel state information
  • Enhanced communication reliability and performance

Benefits

  • Improved network efficiency
  • Better resource allocation
  • Enhanced user experience

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimized for:

  • Telecommunication companies
  • IoT device manufacturers

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art is the use of similar techniques in previous wireless communication systems, but this patent application may introduce advancements in efficiency and performance.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact battery life in mobile devices?

The patent application does not address the potential impact on battery life in mobile devices due to the increased transmission of CSI reports. This could be a concern for users and manufacturers looking to implement this technology.

What are the potential security implications of transmitting CSI reports in a single slot?

The patent application does not discuss the security aspects of transmitting CSI reports in a single slot. It would be important to understand how this method affects the overall security of the wireless network system.


Original Abstract Submitted

herein described are apparatuses, systems, and methods for measurement and reporting of channel state information within wireless network systems. in embodiments, an apparatus for a user equipment (ue) may include memory to store a rank indicator (ri), a precoding matrix index (pmi), and a channel quality indicator (cqi) of channel state information (csi) for the ue. the apparatus may further include circuitry to concatenate the ri, the pmi, and the cqi to produce a concatenated csi element, generate a csi report that includes the concatenated csi element, and cause the csi report to be transmitted to a base station within a single slot. other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
