DETERMINING A RESPONSE BY USER EQUIPMENT TO A BASE STATION SIGNAL BASED ON TRANSMISSION SIGNAL STRENGTH RELAYED WITH THE SIGNAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17824883 titled 'DETERMINING A RESPONSE BY USER EQUIPMENT TO A BASE STATION SIGNAL BASED ON TRANSMISSION SIGNAL STRENGTH RELAYED WITH THE SIGNAL

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application is about technologies that determine how a user equipment (such as a mobile device) should respond to a signal from a base station in a 5G or next-generation network. - The method described in the patent application involves receiving an initial signal from the base station, which includes information about the signal strength of the base station transmission. - This signal strength information helps establish a connection between the user equipment and the base station equipment. - Based on the signal strength value, the method estimates the likelihood that a response signal from the user equipment will be able to reach the base station equipment. - Depending on this estimated likelihood, the method determines how the user equipment should respond to the initial signal from the base station.


Original Abstract Submitted

The technologies described herein are generally directed to determining a response by a user equipment to a signal from a base station based on transmission signal strength relayed with the signal in a fifth generation (5G) network or other next generation networks. For example, a method described herein can include receiving initial signal from base station equipment, with the initial signal encoding a signal strength of the base station transmission, which can facilitate establishing a connection between the user equipment and the base station equipment. The method can further include, based on the signal strength value, estimating a likelihood that a response signal from the user equipment would be able to reach base station equipment. Further, the method can include, based on the estimated likelihood, determine a response to initial signal.
