Corrections to Limited Buffer Rate-Matching Restriction - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18446527 titled 'Corrections to Limited Buffer Rate-Matching Restriction

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods for a user equipment (UE) to receive downlink data from a serving cell in a wireless network.

  • The UE determines if the total number of coded bits for all transport blocks (TBs) scheduled for it by the network in the serving cell during consecutive symbols is greater than a limited-buffer rate-matching (LBRM) threshold.
  • The LBRM threshold is based on the maximum number of transmission layers associated with the UE for the serving cell.
  • If the total number of coded bits for all TBs is not greater than the LBRM threshold, the UE receives and decodes the TBs, which may contain one or more downlink data messages.
  • The patent application also includes methods performed by network nodes and UEs, as well as UEs and network nodes configured to perform these methods.


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments include methods, performed by a user equipment (UE), for receiving downlink (DL) data from a serving cell in a wireless network. Such methods include determining whether a total number of coded bits for all transport blocks (TBs) scheduled for the UE, by the wireless network in the serving cell during a plurality of consecutive symbols, is greater than a limited-buffer rate-matching (LBRM) threshold. The LBRM threshold is based on a maximum number of transmission layers, X, associated with the UE for the serving cell. Such methods also include receiving and decoding a plurality of TBs, comprising one or more DL data messages, when the total number of coded bits for all TBs (including the plurality of TBs) scheduled for the UE is not greater than the LBRM threshold. Other embodiments include complementary methods performed by network nodes, and UEs and network nodes configured to perform such methods.
