SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SIDELINK OPERATION IN UNLICENSED SPECTRUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240114535 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SIDELINK OPERATION IN UNLICENSED SPECTRUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system and method for sidelink operations in unlicensed spectrum, where a user equipment refrains from sending an acknowledgment/negative acknowledgment transmission during a first physical sidelink feedback channel occasion if an unsuccessful listen before talk attempt is detected, and sends the acknowledgment/negative acknowledgment transmission during a subsequent occasion.
- Explanation of the patent/innovation:
- - Receiving a physical sidelink shared channel transmission by a user equipment.
- - Refraining from sending an acknowledgment/negative acknowledgment transmission during a first physical sidelink feedback channel occasion if a listen before talk attempt is unsuccessful.
- - Sending the acknowledgment/negative acknowledgment transmission during a second physical sidelink feedback channel occasion following the first occasion.
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in various industries such as telecommunications, IoT devices, and wireless communication systems.
Problems Solved
- Efficient utilization of unlicensed spectrum. - Improved reliability of sidelink operations. - Enhanced communication performance in crowded environments.
Benefits
- Increased network efficiency. - Enhanced user experience. - Reduced interference in wireless communication.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimized spectrum management in smart cities. Improved connectivity in industrial IoT applications. Enhanced performance in vehicle-to-vehicle communication systems.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of listen before talk mechanisms in wireless communication systems to avoid interference and collisions in shared channels.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact battery life in user equipment?
The patent application does not specifically address the impact of this technology on battery life in user equipment. It would be interesting to know if refraining from sending acknowledgments during certain occasions helps conserve battery power.
Are there any potential security implications of implementing this technology?
The patent application does not delve into the security aspects of the proposed technology. It would be important to investigate if there are any security vulnerabilities or risks associated with the sidelink operations in unlicensed spectrum described in the patent application.
Original Abstract Submitted
a system and a method are disclosed for sidelink operations in unlicensed spectrum. in some embodiments, the method includes: receiving, by a first user equipment (ue), a physical sidelink shared channel (pssch) transmission; refraining from sending an acknowledgment/negative acknowledgment (ack/nack) transmission, by the first ue, during a first physical sidelink feedback channel (psfch) occasion, wherein the refraining from sending occurs in response to an unsuccessful listen before talk (lbt) attempt performed for the first psfch occasion; and sending an ack/nack transmission for the pssch transmission, during a second psfch occasion following the first psfch occasion.
