SIDELINK FEEDBACK ENHANCEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17770099 titled 'SIDELINK FEEDBACK ENHANCEMENT

The abstract describes a patent application for a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network that forms a sidelink group with other UEs in the network. The UE receives a sidelink groupcast message from a select UE in the group, which includes SL channel state information (CSI) request and transmission of a SL CSI reference signal (CSI-RS). The UE processes the message and provides an SL CSI report to the select UE based on measured SL CSI.

• User equipment (UE) forms a sidelink group with other UEs in a wireless communication network.
• Receives a sidelink groupcast message from a select UE in the group.
• Message includes SL channel state information (CSI) request and transmission of a SL CSI reference signal (CSI-RS).
• Processes the message and provides an SL CSI report to the select UE based on measured SL CSI.

Potential Applications: - Enhancing communication reliability in wireless networks. - Improving network efficiency through coordinated communication. - Facilitating group communication among UEs in the network.

Problems Solved: - Addressing the need for efficient communication within a wireless network. - Enhancing the reliability of group communication among UEs. - Optimizing network resources for better performance.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve communication reliability in wireless networks? 2. What are the key benefits of forming a sidelink group in a wireless communication network?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in wireless communication technologies and network optimization for potential improvements in group communication efficiency.

Original Abstract Submitted

A user equipment (UE) associated with a wireless communication network is disclosed. The UE comprises one or more processors configured to form a sidelink group with one or more other UEs associated with the wireless communication network. In some aspects, the one or more processors are further configured to receive a sidelink (SL) groupcast message from a select UE of the one or more other UEs of the sidelink group, the SL groupcast message comprising a SL channel state information (CSI) request and a transmission of a SL channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS). In some aspects, the one or more processors are further configured to process the SL groupcast message; and selectively provide an SL CSI report derived based on a measured SL CSI, to the select UE, in response to processing the SL groupcast message.
