MU-MIMO ASSISTANCE INFORMATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17822407 titled 'MU-MIMO ASSISTANCE INFORMATION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a network node transmitting MIMO assistance information to a UE, which then performs operations based on the received information.
- MIMO assistance information can be related to SU-MIMO or MU-MIMO configurations.
- The UE receives the MIMO assistance information and performs operations such as inter-layer IC, CSI reporting, or SRS antenna port switching based on the configuration.
- The UE transmits information related to CSI reporting or SRS antenna port switching based on the configuration.
- The network node obtains information related to CSI reporting or SRS antenna port switching.
- Potential Applications:**
- Wireless communication systems
- 5G networks
- IoT devices
- Problems Solved:**
- Efficient utilization of MIMO technology
- Enhanced communication performance
- Improved network capacity
- Benefits:**
- Optimal configuration for MIMO operations
- Enhanced data transmission rates
- Improved network reliability and stability
Original Abstract Submitted
A network node may be configured to transmit a first indication of MIMO assistance information for a UE, where the MIMO assistance information is associated with at least one of a SU-MIMO configuration or a MU-MIMO configuration. The UE may receive the first indication of MIMO assistance information from a network node, perform at least one of an inter-layer IC operation, a CSI reporting operation, or an SRS antenna port switching operation based on at least one of the SU-MIMO configuration or the MU-MIMO configuration, and transmit information associated with at least one of the CSI reporting operation or the SRS antenna port switching operation based on at least one of the SU-MIMO configuration or the MU-MIMO configuration. The network node may obtain the information associated with at least one of a CSI reporting operation or an SRS antenna port switching operation.
