COMMUNICATION METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240314614 titled 'COMMUNICATION METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS

The abstract of this patent application describes a communication method and apparatus where a terminal device performs measurements on reference signals and sends the results to a network device, reducing signaling and latency overheads.

Terminal device performs first-type measurement on a first reference signal
Terminal device sends first measurement result to network device
Terminal device performs second-type measurement on a second reference signal based on the first measurement result
Terminal device sends second measurement result to network device
Network device does not need to trigger terminal device to report measurement result, reducing signaling and latency overheads

Potential Applications: - Telecommunications industry for improving network efficiency - IoT devices for better communication protocols

Problems Solved: - Reducing signaling overheads in communication networks - Minimizing latency in data transmission

Benefits: - Improved network efficiency - Faster data transmission - Reduced resource consumption

Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Communication Method for Network Devices This technology can be used in telecommunications companies to optimize network performance and reduce operational costs.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve communication efficiency in networks? 2. What are the potential cost savings for companies implementing this communication method?

Original Abstract Submitted

embodiments of this application disclose a communication method and a communication apparatus. the method in embodiments of this application includes: a terminal device performs first-type measurement on a first reference signal, to obtain a first measurement result. the terminal device sends the first measurement result to a network device. the terminal device performs second-type measurement on a second reference signal based on the first measurement result, to obtain a second measurement result. the terminal device sends the second measurement result to the network device. it can be learned that, according to the foregoing technical solution, the terminal device reports the second measurement result to the network device, and the network device does not need to trigger, by using downlink control information, the terminal device to report the measurement result, so that signaling overheads and latency overheads are reduced.
