PAGING OPERATION WITH NARROW BANDWIDTH PART FREQUENCY HOPPING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240098689 titled 'PAGING OPERATION WITH NARROW BANDWIDTH PART FREQUENCY HOPPING

Simplified Explanation

The patent application relates to techniques for paging operations in a wireless communication network that uses frequency hopping between bandwidth parts (BWPs).

  • Paging indicator message carried in a paging indicator search space of a given BWP indicates to a mobile device that a paging message may arrive at the device's next paging occasion.
  • Mobile device using frequency hopping may locate and hop to an anchor BWP with a paging indicator search space according to a paging indication periodicity.
  • When the device receives a paging indicator message, it may locate and hop to a paging BWP and monitor a paging search space for a paging message.

Original Abstract Submitted

aspects of the disclosure relate to techniques for paging operations in a wireless communication network that uses frequency hopping between bandwidth parts (bwps). a paging indicator message, carried in a paging indicator search space of a given bwp, indicates to a mobile device monitoring the paging indicator search space that a paging message may arrive at the device's next paging occasion. a mobile device using frequency hopping may locate, and hop to, an anchor bwp with a paging indicator search space according to a paging indication periodicity. when it receives a paging indicator message, the device may locate, and hop to, a paging bwp and monitor a paging search space for a paging message. other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
