UTILIZING SSB MEASUREMENTS TO IMPROVE SCELL ACTIVATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18119105 titled 'UTILIZING SSB MEASUREMENTS TO IMPROVE SCELL ACTIVATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods, systems, and computer-readable medium for performing operations related to time or frequency synchronization in a secondary cell (SCell) before receiving certain commands.

  • The operations involve determining synchronization information for one or more candidate synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) for the SCell.
  • The synchronization information is determined before receiving a transmission configuration indication (TCI) state activation command or a SCell activation command.
  • Once the TCI state activation command is received, at least one signal from the SCell is received using the determined synchronization information for one of the candidate SSBs.


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer-readable medium to perform operations including: determining time or frequency synchronization information for each of one or more candidate synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) for a secondary cell (SCell) before receipt of a transmission configuration indication (TCI) state activation command or a SCell activation command, receiving the TCI state activation command, and based on the received TCI state activation command, receiving at least one signal from the SCell using the determined time or frequency synchronization information for one of the one or more candidate SSBs.
