MEASURING SELF-INTERFERENCE FOR FULL-DUPLEX COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17522429 titled 'MEASURING SELF-INTERFERENCE FOR FULL-DUPLEX COMMUNICATIONS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It focuses on the measurement and management of self-interference in wireless communication systems.
- A first device transmits a reference signal to a second device.
- The second device measures self-interference at its own end.
- In the first example, the second device sends an interference report to the first device, including a measure of the self-interference and channel state information.
- The first device uses this information to determine the modulation and coding scheme (MCS) and/or rank for communication.
- In the second example, the second device independently determines the MCS and/or rank based on its self-interference measurements.
- The second device then sends an indication of the determined MCS and/or rank to the first device, along with an indication that it is associated with full-duplex communications.
Potential Applications
- Wireless communication systems
- Mobile networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- 5G and beyond networks
Problems Solved
- Managing self-interference in wireless communication systems
- Improving the efficiency and reliability of wireless communication
- Enabling full-duplex communications
Benefits
- Enhanced performance and capacity of wireless networks
- Improved signal quality and reduced interference
- Increased flexibility and adaptability in wireless communication systems
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. For instance, a first device may transmit a reference signal to a second device and the second device may measure self-interference at the second device. In a first example, the second device may transmit an indication of channel state information to the first device along with an interference report including a measure of the self-interference, which the first device may use to determine an MCS and/or a rank. In a second example, the second device may determine an MCS and/or rank based on measuring the self-interference. In some examples, the second device may transmit a first indication of the MCS and/or rank determined based on measuring the self-interference to the first device along with a second indication that the MCS and/or rank is associated with full-duplex communications at the second device.
