METHOD FOR GROUP BASED L1-SINR MEASUREMENT AND REPORT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17905218 titled 'METHOD FOR GROUP BASED L1-SINR MEASUREMENT AND REPORT

The present disclosure discusses methods and devices for measuring and reporting Layer 1 Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (L1-SINR) in a group-based setting. The system includes a network device and a wireless device, with the network device generating a message for the wireless device to conduct L1-SINR measurements related to inter-beam interference.

• The system includes a network device (e.g., gNB) with at least a first and second Transmission and Reception Point (TRP) for generating messages.
• The message includes sets of channel measurement resources (CMRs) and interference measurement resources (IMRs) for each TRP, allowing for L1-SINR measurements.
• The network device sends the message to the wireless device, which then performs L1-SINR measurements based on the received message and reports the results back to the network device.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in 5G and beyond wireless communication systems to optimize signal quality. - It can improve network performance by reducing inter-beam interference and enhancing overall user experience.

Problems Solved: - Addresses issues related to inter-beam interference in wireless communication systems. - Provides a method for accurate L1-SINR measurements to optimize network performance.

Benefits: - Improved signal quality and reduced interference for better user experience. - Enhanced network performance and efficiency in wireless communication systems.

Commercial Applications: - "Group-based Layer 1 Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (L1-SINR) Measurement and Reporting in Wireless Communication Systems" can be utilized by telecommunication companies to enhance the performance of their networks and improve customer satisfaction.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve signal quality in wireless communication systems? 2. What are the key benefits of conducting group-based L1-SINR measurements in network optimization?

Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for group based Layer 1 Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (L1-SINR) measurement and report. The system according to the present disclosure includes at least a network device and a wireless device. A network device (such as a gNB) including at least a first Transmission and Reception Point (TRP) and a second TRP may generate a message used for a wireless device (such as a user equipment (UE)) to perform L1-SINR measurement, wherein the L1-SINR measurement is related to inter-beam interference for beams associated with the first TRP and the second TRP. The message may at least include: (1) a first channel measurement resource (CMR) set including multiple CMRs for the first TRP, and a first interference measurement resource (IMR) set including multiple IMRs for the first TRP, which is corresponding to the first CMR set; (2) a second CMR set including multiple CMRs for the second TRP, and a second IMR set including multiple IMRs for the second TRP, which is corresponding to the second CMR set; and (3) relation information, indicating the relation between the first CMR set and the second IMR set, and the relation between the second CMR set and the first IMR set. The network device sends the message to the wireless device, such that the wireless device may perform the L1-SINR measurement with respect to multiple CMR pairs at least based on the received message and then send corresponding report of the L1-SINR measurement to the network device.
