CONFIGURATION INDICATION FOR BEAM RESTRICTION IN INTEGRATED ACCESS AND BACKHAUL (IAB) NODES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240348310 titled 'CONFIGURATION INDICATION FOR BEAM RESTRICTION IN INTEGRATED ACCESS AND BACKHAUL (IAB) NODES
Simplified Explanation: This patent application describes a method, system, and apparatus for providing an IAB node that can determine restricted beams for distributed units of a child IAB node in spatial division multiplexing (SDM) mode.
Key Features and Innovation:
- IAB node with processing circuitry to determine restricted beams for child IAB nodes in SDM mode.
- Indication of restricted beams corresponds to deactivation of transmission configuration indicator in TDM mode.
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems to optimize beamforming and enhance network performance.
Problems Solved: This technology addresses the challenge of efficiently configuring child IAB nodes in SDM mode without the use of traditional TDM indicators.
Benefits:
- Improved network efficiency and performance.
- Enhanced beamforming capabilities.
- Simplified configuration of IAB nodes in SDM mode.
Commercial Applications: Optimized for use in 5G networks, this technology can benefit telecommunications companies, network equipment manufacturers, and infrastructure providers looking to enhance their wireless communication systems.
Prior Art: Readers can explore prior research on beamforming, spatial division multiplexing, and time division multiplexing in wireless communication systems to understand the background of this technology.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay informed about the latest developments in beamforming technologies, SDM optimization, and network configuration methods to enhance your understanding of this innovative technology.
Questions about IAB Node Technology: 1. What are the key advantages of using spatial division multiplexing (SDM) in wireless communication systems? 2. How does this technology improve the efficiency of configuring child IAB nodes in SDM mode?
Original Abstract Submitted
a method, system and apparatus are provided. in one embodiment, an iab node is provided. the iab node includes processing circuitry configured to determine at least one restricted beam for an iab-distributed unit, iab-du, of a child iab node when operating in spatial division multiplexing, sdm, and indicate the at least one restricted beam for configuring the child iab node where the indication of the at least one restricted beam corresponds to a deactivation of a transmission configuration indicator, tci state, which would be available when operating in time division multiplexing, tdm.
