METHOD FOR OPERATING ULTRA WIDEBAND SIGNAL AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17885857 titled 'METHOD FOR OPERATING ULTRA WIDEBAND SIGNAL AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device that supports ultra wideband (UWB) communication. The device includes a communication module and a processor. The processor controls the transmission of packets to an external electronic device.

  • The electronic device supports ultra wideband (UWB) communication.
  • It includes a communication module and at least one processor.
  • The processor controls the transmission of packets to an external electronic device.
  • The first packet contains information related to the transmission of a second packet.
  • The second packet is transmitted based on the information in the first packet.
  • The first packet may be a configuration frame with a payload.
  • The second packets are used to determine if pointing is necessary and do not include a frame payload.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication devices
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Smart home automation systems
  • Wearable devices

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient transmission of data packets in UWB communication
  • Improved synchronization and coordination between devices
  • Reduced interference and improved signal quality

Benefits of this technology:

  • Faster and more reliable communication between devices
  • Enhanced performance and efficiency in UWB networks
  • Improved user experience with seamless connectivity
  • Enables new applications and services in wireless communication


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication module configured to support ultra wideband (UWB) communication, and at least one processor operatively connected to the communication module, wherein the at least one processor is configured to control to transmit, to an external electronic device, a first packet including first information related to transmission of a second packet through the communication module in a slot corresponding to a transmission time of the first packet, to transmit, to the external electronic device, at least one or more second packets corresponding to the first information through the communication module in a slot corresponding to a transmission time of the second packet, wherein the first packet may be an STS packet configuration (SP) frame including a payload, and the at least one or more second packets for determining whether pointing may be an SP frame that does not include a frame payload.
