BEAM CHARACTERIZATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18452236 titled 'BEAM CHARACTERIZATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes a wireless communication device that can determine its orientation relative to a positioner and capture measurement information at different positions as it is rotated around an axis. This measurement information can be used to generate a codebook for beam generation.

• The device receives information about the mount orientation of the wireless communication device.
• It captures measurement information at different positions as it is rotated around an axis.
• The measurement information is captured based on the mount orientation.
• The device provides information identifying the measurement information.
• The measurement information can be used to generate a codebook for beam generation.

Potential Applications

• Wireless communication systems
• Testing and optimization of wireless communication devices

Problems Solved

• Determining the orientation of a wireless communication device relative to a positioner
• Capturing accurate measurement information at different positions
• Generating a codebook for beam generation

Benefits

• Improved accuracy in determining the orientation of a wireless communication device
• Enhanced testing and optimization of wireless communication devices
• More efficient beam generation in wireless communication systems

Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication and testing. In some aspects, a device may receive information identifying a mount orientation of a wireless communication device, wherein the mount orientation indicates an orientation of a coordinate system of the wireless communication device relative to a coordinate system of a positioner. The device may capture measurement information at each position of a set of positions of the wireless communication device, wherein the set of positions comprises positions of the wireless communication device as the wireless communication device is rotated around an axis by the positioner, and wherein the measurement information is captured based at least in part on the mount orientation. The device may provide information identifying the measurement information. Some techniques and apparatuses described herein may use the measurement information to generate a codebook for beam generation. Numerous other aspects are provided.
