Candidate Cell Resource Switching and Timer Operation - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18627709 titled 'Candidate Cell Resource Switching and Timer Operation
Simplified Explanation:
This patent application describes a method for a wireless device to handle random access procedures in a cellular network. The device may switch between cells based on the type of cell where the random access procedure is initiated.
- The wireless device may stop a bandwidth part inactivity timer and switch an active bandwidth part if the random access procedure is initiated on a serving cell.
- If the random access procedure is initiated on a candidate cell, the device may choose not to stop the bandwidth part inactivity timer and/or not switch the active bandwidth part of the cell.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Adaptive handling of random access procedures based on the type of cell.
- Efficient utilization of bandwidth resources.
- Improved network performance and reliability.
Potential Applications:
This technology can be applied in cellular networks to optimize random access procedures and enhance overall network efficiency.
Problems Solved:
- Inefficient handling of random access procedures in cellular networks.
- Suboptimal bandwidth resource utilization.
- Lack of flexibility in adapting to different cell types.
Benefits:
- Enhanced network performance.
- Improved bandwidth utilization.
- Better user experience in cellular communications.
Commercial Applications:
Potential commercial applications include telecommunications equipment, network infrastructure, and mobile devices.
Prior Art:
Readers can explore prior art related to random access procedures in cellular networks to understand the evolution of this technology.
Frequently Updated Research:
Stay informed about the latest research on random access procedures and network optimization in cellular communications.

Original Abstract Submitted
A wireless device may initiate a random access procedure for a cell. The wireless device may not receive a random access response. If the random access procedure is initiated on a serving cell, the wireless device may stop a bandwidth part inactivity timer of the cell and switch an active bandwidth part of the cell. However, if the random access procedure is initiated on a candidate cell, the wireless device may improve efficiency by not stopping a bandwidth part inactivity timer of the cell and/or by not switching an active bandwidth part of the cell.
