NR SIDELINK DRX DESIGN FOR RELAY RESELECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17907596 titled 'NR SIDELINK DRX DESIGN FOR RELAY RESELECTION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes techniques for switching between two paths when certain criteria are met.
- The first path is a direct connection between a remote user equipment (UE) and a network entity.
- The second path is an indirect connection where the remote UE is connected to the network entity through a relay UE using a PC5 connection.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Mobile communication networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) networks
- Wireless communication systems
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient switching between direct and indirect connections based on specific criteria
- Improved connectivity and communication reliability
Benefits of this technology:
- Enhanced flexibility in network connectivity options
- Improved network performance and reliability
- Better utilization of network resources
Original Abstract Submitted
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for switching between a first path and a second path when certain selection criteria are met. The first path may be a Uu connection whereby the remote UE is connected directly to a network entity. The second path may be a connection whereby the remote UE is connected to the network entity (i.e., indirectly) via a relay UE (e.g., by a PC5 connection).
