PHYSICAL LAYER SIGNATURE FOR WAKE-UP SIGNALS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17727477 Titled 'PHYSICAL LAYER SIGNATURE FOR WAKE-UP SIGNALS'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It explains that a user equipment (UE) and network entity can determine a physical layer (PHY) signature for the network entity to include in wake-up signals (WUSs) transmitted to the UE. The UE can then use this determined PHY signature to validate a received WUS during a monitoring occasion. If the PHY signature of the received WUS matches the determined PHY signature, the UE will wake up according to the WUS. If the PHY signature does not match, the UE will remain in sleep mode. The UE can also transmit an indication of an adversarial attack if the received WUS does not include the determined PHY signature or includes a different PHY signature.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) and network entity may determine a physical layer (PHY) signature for the network entity to include in one or more wake-up signals (WUSs) transmitted to the UE. The UE may use the determined PHY signature to validate a WUS received during a monitoring occasion. For example, the UE may compare a PHY signature of the received WUS to the determined PHY signature. If the PHY signature of the received WUS matches the determined PHY signature, the UE may wake up in accordance with the WUS. If the PHY signature of the received WUS does not match the determined PHY signature, the UE may remain in a sleep mode. The UE may transmit an indication of an adversarial attack based on the received WUS not including the determined PHY signature or including a different PHY signature.
