USER EQUIPMENT PROCEDURE FOR BUFFER STATUS REPORT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17738933 titled 'USER EQUIPMENT PROCEDURE FOR BUFFER STATUS REPORT
Simplified Explanation
This patent application describes methods and devices for managing data transmission in a logical channel group (LCG) in a wireless communication system.
- The invention involves obtaining a decision-point value for the LCG, which determines whether a long buffer status report or a short buffer status report should be sent.
- The decision-point value is compared to a threshold value, and if it exceeds the threshold, a long buffer status report is sent. If it is equal to or less than the threshold, a short buffer status report is sent.
- The decision-point value can be determined based on various factors, such as the peak power envelope of the wireless communication device, the historical data transmission rate of the device, the number of component carriers available for data upload, a cost function, the amount of pending data in the LCG, the type of wireless communication device, or the latency of communications.
- This invention aims to optimize data transmission in the LCG by dynamically adjusting the type of buffer status report sent based on the decision-point value.
- By sending the appropriate buffer status report, the wireless communication system can efficiently manage the transmission of data in the LCG, improving overall performance and resource utilization.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods and apparatus configured to obtain a decision-point value, and send, for a logical channel group (LCG) having a quantity of data pending an uplink transmission, a long buffer status report in response to the decision-point value exceeding a threshold value, or a short buffer status report in response to the decision-point value being equal to or less than the threshold value are disclosed. The decision-point value may be a buffer status report-type determinative value, which may be based on a peak power envelope of a wireless communication device, a data transmission rate historically obtained by the wireless communication device, a number of component carriers available for a complete upload of a buffer holding data, a cost function, an amount of data associated with the LCG that is pending the uplink transmission, a type of the wireless communication device, or a latency of communications of the wireless communication device.
