SIDELINK SYNCHRONIZATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240349207 titled 'SIDELINK SYNCHRONIZATION
The abstract describes an apparatus and method for sidelink synchronization, involving obtaining synchronization information from a terminal device, receiving sidelink shared channel transmissions from another terminal device, identifying the other terminal device as a candidate synchronization source based on synchronization information included in the transmissions, and determining whether to search for a new synchronization source or retain the current one based on various factors.
- Obtaining first sidelink synchronization information from a terminal device
- Receiving sidelink shared channel transmissions from another terminal device
- Identifying the other terminal device as a candidate synchronization source based on second sidelink synchronization information
- Determining whether to search for a new synchronization source or retain the current one based on multiple factors
Potential Applications: - Wireless communication systems - Internet of Things (IoT) devices - Vehicle-to-vehicle communication systems
Problems Solved: - Efficient synchronization in sidelink communication - Seamless handover between synchronization sources
Benefits: - Improved reliability of sidelink communication - Enhanced network efficiency - Better overall performance of wireless systems
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Sidelink Synchronization for Wireless Communication Systems" This technology could be used in various commercial applications such as: - Smart city infrastructure - Industrial automation systems - Public safety communication networks
Questions about Sidelink Synchronization: 1. How does this technology improve the reliability of sidelink communication? 2. What are the key factors considered when determining whether to search for a new synchronization source or retain the current one?
Original Abstract Submitted
apparatus and method for sidelink synchronization are provided. solution comprises obtaining () first sidelink synchronization information from a first terminal device acting as a synchronization source; receiving () sidelink shared channel transmissions from another terminal device; identifying () the other terminal device as a candidate synchronization source based on second sidelink synchronization information included in a sidelink shared channel transmission received from the other terminal device; determining () whether to perform a search for a new synchronization source or to retain the first terminal device as the current synchronization source based on at least one of the first sidelink synchronization information, the second sidelink synchronization information, and measurement of at least one sidelink shared channel transmission received from the other terminal device.
