FREQUENCY RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR REDUCED CAPABILITY DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17732269 Titled 'FREQUENCY RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR REDUCED CAPABILITY DEVICES'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It explains that a user equipment (UE) can indicate its capability to support a restricted bandwidth for data signaling. The UE then receives information about the bandwidth part for control signaling and a set of frequency domain resources for data signaling. The set of frequency domain resources is a subset of the bandwidth part, based on the restricted bandwidth. The UE can then use the bandwidth part for control signaling and the set of frequency domain resources for data signaling. The restriction on bandwidth can be determined by the size of the frequency domain resources or the number of resource blocks in the set.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit an indication of a capability of the UE to support a restricted bandwidth for data signaling. The UE may receive an indication of a bandwidth part for control signaling and an indication of a set of frequency domain resources for the data signaling. The set of frequency domain resources may correspond to a subset of the bandwidth part in accordance with the restricted bandwidth. The UE may communicate the control signaling over the bandwidth part and data signaling over the set of frequency domain resources. In some cases, the bandwidth restriction may correspond to a bandwidth size for the set of frequency domain resources or a number of resource blocks in the set of frequency domain resources.
