COMMUNICATION RELAYING FOR EXTENDED REALITY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240260108 titled 'COMMUNICATION RELAYING FOR EXTENDED REALITY
The abstract of this patent application discusses the communication of extended reality (XR) traffic between user equipment (UE) and a network node, initially through an access link and then potentially through a relay UE via a device-to-device communication link based on certain conditions being met.
- User equipment (UE) can switch from communicating XR traffic via an access link to a relay UE using a device-to-device communication link.
- The switch is triggered by conditions related to power usage, throughput, or congestion of the access link or device-to-device communication link.
Potential Applications: - Enhanced communication efficiency in wireless networks. - Improved user experience in extended reality applications.
Problems Solved: - Efficient management of XR traffic in wireless communication. - Optimization of power consumption in UE devices.
Benefits: - Enhanced network performance. - Better utilization of resources. - Improved user experience in XR applications.
Commercial Applications: Title: "Optimized XR Traffic Management in Wireless Networks" This technology could be applied in industries such as gaming, virtual reality, and augmented reality, where efficient XR traffic management is crucial for a seamless user experience.
Questions about XR: 1. How does the switch from the access link to the relay UE benefit power consumption in user equipment? - The switch is triggered by conditions related to power usage, ensuring that the UE operates in a more energy-efficient manner when communicating XR traffic.
2. What impact does the optimization of XR traffic management have on network throughput? - By efficiently managing XR traffic, network throughput can be optimized, leading to improved overall network performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. in some aspects, a user equipment (ue) may communicate extended reality (xr) traffic with a network node via an access link. the ue may switch from communicating the xr traffic via the access link to communicating the xr traffic via a relay ue using a device-to-device communication link responsive to satisfaction of a condition relating to a power usage of the ue or relating to throughput or congestion of the access link or the device-to-device communication link. numerous other aspects are described.
