MULTICAST COMMUNICATION WITH CROSS-CARRIER SCHEDULING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for patent application number 17719330 Titled 'MULTICAST COMMUNICATION WITH CROSS-CARRIER SCHEDULING'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication. The device receives control signaling that indicates the configuration of a cell associated with a first cell in a group of cells. This configuration includes information about how the first cell and a second cell in the group are scheduled for multicast communication. The device then monitors for a downlink control channel on either or both of the first cell or the second cell based on the received control signaling. It also monitors for a downlink data channel on either or both of the first cell or the second cell based on the monitoring of the downlink control channel. Finally, the device receives the multicast communication on either or both of the first cell or the second cell based on the monitoring of the downlink data channel.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A device may receive control signaling indicating a cell configuration associated with a first cell of a set of cells. The cell configuration may indicate a scheduling configuration associated with the first cell and a second cell of the set of cells for multicast communication. The device may monitor for a downlink control channel associated with the multicast communication on one or both of the first cell or the second cell based on the control signaling. The device may monitor for a downlink data channel associated with the multicast communication on one or both of the first cell or the second cell based on the monitoring of the downlink control channel. The device may receive the multicast communication on one or both of the first cell or the second cell based on the monitoring of the downlink data channel.
