SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING CONTROL INFORMATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18390176 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING CONTROL INFORMATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a mobile device that can receive synchronization signal blocks from a base station, identify specific signals within these blocks, and decode information carried by these signals for communication purposes.

  • Circuitry in the mobile device receives synchronization signal blocks periodically from a base station.
  • Each synchronization signal block contains Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS), Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS), and Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH).
  • The PBCH carries a Master Information Block (MIB) containing information about subcarrier intervals for System Information Block type 1 (SIB 1).
  • The device identifies an index of the first synchronization signal block among the received blocks.
  • It also receives a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) located in a common search space, with an added Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) scrambled by System Information Radio Network Temporary Identifier (SI-RNTI).
  • The Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) carries the SIB 1 and is scheduled by the PDCCH.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact battery life in mobile devices?

This article does not address the potential impact of this technology on the battery life of mobile devices. Implementing additional signal processing and decoding algorithms may require more power consumption, affecting the device's battery life.

What are the security implications of using SI-RNTI for scrambling the CRC in PDCCH?

The article does not discuss the security implications of using SI-RNTI for scrambling the CRC in PDCCH. It would be essential to understand how this method affects the overall security of the communication system and potential vulnerabilities that may arise.


Original Abstract Submitted

A mobile device including circuitry configured to: receive one or more synchronization signal blocks periodically transmitted from a base station, each synchronization signal block containing Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS), Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS) and Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH), wherein the PBCH carries a Master Information Block (MIB) which contains information of subcarrier interval for System Information Block type 1 (SIB 1); identify an index of a first synchronization signal block among the one or more synchronization signal blocks; and receive Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) being located in a common search space and including an added Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) which is scrambled by System Information Radio Network Temporary Identifier (SI-RNTI), and Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) carrying the SIB 1, the PDSCH being scheduled by the PDCCH.
