SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MULTIPLE REDUNDANT TRANSMISSIONS FOR USER EQUIPMENT COOPERATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17952791 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MULTIPLE REDUNDANT TRANSMISSIONS FOR USER EQUIPMENT COOPERATION

Simplified Explanation

The present patent application describes methods and devices for User Equipment (UE) cooperation, specifically involving the forwarding of traffic between cooperating UEs (CUEs) and target UEs (TUEs) using redundant signal transmissions or receptions.

  • The methods involve a base station transmitting configuration information to both the CUE and the TUE.
  • The configuration information includes details about resources for a sidelink (SL) transmission and a redundancy parameter for the SL transmission.
  • The SL transmission refers to the transmission of a packet from the CUE to the TUE.
  • The base station also transmits the packet intended for the TUE to a group of UEs, which includes both the CUE and the TUE.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Improved communication reliability and coverage in wireless networks.
  • Enhanced coordination and cooperation between UEs in transmitting and receiving data.
  • Efficient utilization of network resources by enabling redundant signal transmissions.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Addressing potential signal loss or interference issues in wireless communication.
  • Facilitating seamless and reliable data transmission between UEs.
  • Optimizing network performance by minimizing packet loss and improving overall coverage.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Increased reliability and robustness of wireless communication.
  • Enhanced network efficiency and resource utilization.
  • Improved user experience with reduced signal disruptions and improved coverage.


Original Abstract Submitted

Aspects of the present application provide methods and device for use in User Equipment (UE) cooperation. UE cooperation may include the cooperating UEs (CUEs) forwarding traffic to or from one or more target UEs (TUEs) with redundant signal transmissions or receptions. Methods involve a base station transmitting configuration information to at least one cooperative user equipment (CUE) and to a target user equipment (TUE). The configuration information includes an indication of resources for a sidelink (SL) transmission and a redundancy parameter for the SL transmission. The SL transmission is a transmission for the at least one CUE to forward a packet intended for the TUE. The base station also transmits the packet intended for the TUE, to a plurality of UEs comprising the at least one CUE and the TUE.
