COMMUNICATION METHOD, ACCESS NETWORK DEVICE, AND TERMINAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18344607 titled 'COMMUNICATION METHOD, ACCESS NETWORK DEVICE, AND TERMINAL

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an apparatus that determines the timing offset between two carriers in a wireless communication system.

  • The timing offset refers to the difference in timing between the downlink communication of the first carrier and the uplink communication of the second carrier.
  • The first carrier uses a specific radio access technology (RAT), while the second carrier is an uplink frequency division duplex (FDD) carrier that uses both the same RAT as the first carrier and a second RAT.
  • The apparatus sends first indication information to a terminal, which indicates the timing offset.
  • This timing offset information is then used by the terminal to determine the timing of the second carrier.
  • The innovation lies in the ability of the apparatus to accurately determine and communicate the timing offset between the carriers, enabling efficient and synchronized communication in the wireless system.


Original Abstract Submitted

An apparatus determines a timing offset of a first carrier and a second carrier. The timing offset is an offset between timing of downlink communication of the first carrier and timing of uplink communication of the second carrier. The first carrier is a carrier using a first radio access technology (RAT), and the second carrier is an uplink frequency division duplex (FDD) carrier using the first RAT and a second RAT. The apparatus sends first indication information to a terminal. The first indication information indicates the timing offset, and the timing offset is used to determine the timing of the second carrier.
