Technique for Performing Neighbor Cell Measurements - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240137792 titled 'Technique for Performing Neighbor Cell Measurements

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a technique for performing neighbor cell measurements in a cellular radio access network (RAN).

  • Detect at least two neighbor cells of the RAN, where at least one is in a neighbor cell list (NCL) and at least one is not.
  • Measure the signal from each detected cell.
  • Estimate a radio signal value for each detected cell based on the measured signal.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in cellular networks to improve handover procedures and network optimization.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient neighbor cell measurements in a cellular network. 2. Accurate estimation of radio signal values for neighboring cells.

Benefits

1. Enhanced network performance. 2. Improved handover procedures. 3. Better network optimization.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing cellular network performance, improving user experience, and reducing network congestion.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be techniques for neighbor cell measurements in cellular networks using different algorithms or methodologies.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technique handle interference from neighboring cells during measurements?

The abstract does not provide details on how interference is managed during the measurement process.

What impact does this technique have on network latency?

The abstract does not mention how this technique may affect network latency during neighbor cell measurements.


Original Abstract Submitted

a technique for performing neighbor cell measurements for one or more cells of a cellular radio access network, ran, is provided. as to a method aspect, a method () comprises or triggers a step of detecting () at least two neighbor cells of the ran, wherein at least one of the detected neighbor cells is in a neighbor cell list, ncl, of the ran, and wherein at least one of the detected neighbor cells is not in the ncl of the ran. the method () further comprises a step of measuring (), for each of one or more of the detected cells of the ran, a measurement signal () from the respective cell. the method () still further comprises a step of estimating (), for each of the one or more of the detected cells of the ran, a radio signal value based on the measured measurement signal () from the respective cell.
