BEAM FAILURE RECOVERY IN MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION RECEPTION POINT SCENARIO - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18550388 titled 'BEAM FAILURE RECOVERY IN MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION RECEPTION POINT SCENARIO
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure relates to a technique for performing beam failure recovery (BFR) of transmission reception points (TRPs) in a multiple-TRP (mTRP) scenario. The technique involves defining rules based on current counter values of beam failure instance (BFI) counters used by a user equipment (UE) for each TRP, as well as timer statuses of timers supervising the BFI counters. By using these rules, the UE can determine when to use the BFR mechanism individually for at least one TRP or concurrently for all TRPs in one or more cells.
- Rules defined based on BFI counter values and timer statuses for TRPs in an mTRP scenario
- Allows UE to determine when to use BFR mechanism for TRPs individually or concurrently
- Enhances efficiency and reliability of wireless communications in complex scenarios
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems where multiple TRPs are involved, such as 5G networks, IoT devices, and smart city infrastructure.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient recovery from beam failures in mTRP scenarios 2. Improved reliability of wireless communication systems
Benefits
1. Enhanced user experience with more reliable connections 2. Increased network efficiency and performance 3. Simplified management of beam failure recovery in complex scenarios
Potential Commercial Applications
The technology can be utilized by telecommunications companies, network equipment manufacturers, and IoT device makers to improve the performance and reliability of their wireless communication systems.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be techniques for beam failure recovery in wireless communication systems, but the specific approach of defining rules based on BFI counter values and timer statuses for TRPs in an mTRP scenario may be novel.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technique compare to existing beam failure recovery methods in terms of efficiency and reliability?
This article provides insights into a new technique for beam failure recovery, but it does not directly compare its performance to existing methods.
What impact could this technology have on the overall network latency and throughput in wireless communication systems?
While the benefits of the technology are discussed, the specific impact on network latency and throughput is not addressed in detail.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure relates generally to the field of wireless communications, and particularly to a technique for performing the beam failure recovery (BFR) of transmission reception points (TRPs) in a multiple-TRP (mTRP) scenario. More specifically, the technique involves defining rules according to which a UE may determine that the TRPs have failed concurrently or the TRPs are considered to fail individually in the mTRP scenario. Such rules are defined based on current counter values of beam failure instance (BFI) counters used by the UE for each of the TRPs. In some embodiments, the rules may be additionally defined based on current timer statuses of timers supervising the BFI counters. By using the rules thus defined, it is possible for the UE to clearly determine when it is required to use the BFR mechanism individually for at least one of the TRPs or concurrently for all the TRPs in one or more cells.
