METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPROVING RELIABILITY OF PHYSICAL DOWNLINK CONTROL CHANNEL IN WIRELESS NETWORK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18016938 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPROVING RELIABILITY OF PHYSICAL DOWNLINK CONTROL CHANNEL IN WIRELESS NETWORK

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application describes a method for improving the reliability of a PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel) in a wireless network. - The method involves receiving an enable PDCCH repetition signal from a UE (User Equipment), which indicates the UE's capability to support PDCCH information transmission over multiple occasions. - The method also includes configuring the UE using a RRC (Radio Resource Control) parameter by transmitting a PDCCH repetition scheme signal to the UE. This signal indicates how the PDCCH information will be transmitted over the multiple occasions. - Additionally, the method involves associating the plurality of TCI (Transmission Configuration Indicator) states to the PDCCH information by configuring a MAC-CE (Medium Access Control Control Element). - The innovation aims to enhance the reliability of PDCCH transmission in wireless networks, potentially leading to improved performance and user experience.


Original Abstract Submitted

Accordingly, the embodiment herein is to provide a method for improving reliability of a PDCCH in a wireless network. The method includes receiving an enable PDCCH repetition signal from a UE, wherein the enable PDCCH repetition signal indicates a capability of the UE to support a PDCCH information transmission over a plurality of occasions. Further, the method includes configuring the UE using a RRC parameter by transmitting a PDCCH repetition scheme signal to the UE, where the PDCCH repetition scheme indicates the PDCCH information transmission over the plurality of occasions. Further, the method includes associating the plurality of TCI states to a the PDCCH information by configuring a MAC-CE.
