INTELLIGENT ANTENNA ADAPTIVE DIRECTED BEAMFORMING BASED ON TOTALITY OF CIRCUMSTANCES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17737257 titled 'INTELLIGENT ANTENNA ADAPTIVE DIRECTED BEAMFORMING BASED ON TOTALITY OF CIRCUMSTANCES

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system for prioritizing users in a mobile communications network based on their signal strength and providing a strong radio signal to their mobile devices.

  • The system assesses the priority of a user at a service area based on the strength of the radio signal from a cell site.
  • It focuses an antenna beam at the service area using beamforming technology.
  • The antenna beam is assigned to the particular user for downlink communication between the cell site and the user's mobile device.
  • This prioritization and beamforming technique improves the quality of communication for users with a strong signal.


Original Abstract Submitted

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, assessing a priority of a particular user at a service area in a mobile communications network for a strong radio signal from a cell site of the mobile communications network, and providing the strong radio signal to a mobile device of the particular user according to the priority of the particular user, wherein the providing the strong radio signal comprises focusing an antenna beam of a beamforming antenna at the service area and assigning the antenna beam to the particular user for downlink communication between the cell site of the mobile communications network and the particular user. Other embodiments are disclosed.
