RESOURCE SHARING BETWEEN SIDELINK DEVICES USING DIFFERENT RADIO ACCESS TECHNOLOGIES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17737302 titled 'RESOURCE SHARING BETWEEN SIDELINK DEVICES USING DIFFERENT RADIO ACCESS TECHNOLOGIES
Simplified Explanation
- This patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. - The invention focuses on user equipment (UE) and its ability to receive an indication of a time offset for synchronization signal resources associated with a first radio access technology (RAT). - Based on this indication and the penetration ratio of UEs associated with the first RAT, the UE can determine the synchronization signal resources and a synchronization periodicity. - The UE can then selectively transmit synchronization signals on the determined resources and according to the determined periodicity. - Additionally, the UE can also determine if other synchronization signal resources are allocated for a second RAT. - If other synchronization signal resources are allocated, the UE can select resources for communications associated with the first RAT based on this determination. - Finally, the UE can perform communications associated with the first RAT using the selected resources.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a time offset for synchronization signal resources for synchronization signals associated with a first radio access technology (RAT). The UE may determine the synchronization signal resources and a synchronization periodicity based on the indication and a penetration ratio of UEs associated with the first RAT. The UE may selectively transmit the synchronization signals on the synchronization signal resources and according to the synchronization periodicity. Additionally, or alternatively, the UE may determine that other synchronization signal resources are allocated for a second RAT and may select resources for communications associated with the first RAT based on determining that the other synchronization signal resources are allocated. The UE may perform communications associated with the first RAT based on selecting the resources.
