Enhancement of PUCCH Transmissions - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17755591 titled 'Enhancement of PUCCH Transmissions
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a user equipment (UE) that determines the repetition factor for physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmissions based on received indications.
- The UE receives a first PUCCH repetition factor indication through radio resource control (RRC) and a second indication dynamically via downlink control information (DCI).
- Based on these indications, the UE calculates the number of PUCCH repetitions needed for transmission.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Dynamic determination of PUCCH repetition factor based on received indications.
- Utilization of both RRC-based and DCI-based indications for efficient PUCCH transmissions.
Potential Applications:
- Wireless communication systems
- Mobile networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
Problems Solved:
- Efficient allocation of resources for PUCCH transmissions
- Optimization of uplink control channel performance
Benefits:
- Improved reliability of uplink control channel transmissions
- Enhanced overall system efficiency
- Better utilization of network resources
Commercial Applications: The technology can be applied in telecommunications equipment, IoT devices, and mobile network infrastructure to enhance communication efficiency and reliability.
Prior Art: Prior research in the field of wireless communication systems and network optimization may provide insights into similar approaches to improving uplink control channel transmissions.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in wireless communication protocols, network optimization techniques, and IoT device connectivity to further enhance the efficiency of PUCCH transmissions.
Questions about PUCCH Transmission Optimization: 1. How does the use of both RRC-based and DCI-based indications improve the efficiency of PUCCH transmissions? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing dynamic determination of PUCCH repetition factors in real-world network environments?
Original Abstract Submitted
A user equipment (UE) is configured to determine a repetition factor for physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmissions. The UE receives a first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) repetition factor indication, wherein the first PUCCH repetition factor indication is a radio resource control (RRC)-based indication, receives a second PUCCH repetition factor indication, wherein the second PUCCH repetition factor is dynamically indicated via a downlink control information (DCI) transmission and determines a number of PUCCH repetitions based on at least one of the first and second PUCCH repetition factor indications.
