METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ESTIMATING SELF-INTERFERENCE CHANNEL IN FULL-DUPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17970834 titled 'METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ESTIMATING SELF-INTERFERENCE CHANNEL IN FULL-DUPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and device for efficiently estimating a self-interference channel in a full-duplex (FD) communication system. This system allows simultaneous transmission and reception on the same frequency band, but self-interference can degrade the performance.

  • The method involves a base station (BS) transmitting information to a first user equipment (UE) about an uplink resource where reception from the first UE is muted.
  • The BS then estimates the self-interference channel during downlink transmission to a second UE, based on the transmitted information.
  • This estimation helps in understanding the interference caused by the BS's own transmission on the downlink signal.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Full-duplex communication systems: The method can be applied in FD systems to estimate and mitigate self-interference, improving overall system performance.
  • Wireless networks: This technology can be used in wireless networks to enhance the efficiency and reliability of communication between base stations and user equipment.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Self-interference estimation: The method provides an efficient way to estimate the self-interference channel, which is crucial for mitigating interference in FD communication systems.
  • Performance degradation: By accurately estimating the self-interference channel, the system can effectively reduce the impact of self-interference, leading to improved communication quality and throughput.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved system performance: By estimating the self-interference channel, the system can optimize transmission parameters and reduce interference, resulting in enhanced overall performance.
  • Enhanced reliability: Mitigating self-interference improves the reliability of communication, reducing errors and dropped connections.
  • Efficient resource utilization: The method allows for efficient utilization of uplink resources by muting reception during specific periods, enabling accurate estimation of self-interference without sacrificing overall system capacity.


Original Abstract Submitted

The disclosure relates to a method and device for efficiently estimating a self-interference channel in an FD communication system. A method for estimating a self-interference channel by a BS in an FD communication system includes transmitting, to a first UE, information about an uplink resource where uplink reception from the first UE is muted; and estimating a self-interference channel related to downlink transmission in a period corresponding to the uplink resource where uplink reception is muted during downlink transmission to a second UE, based on the transmitted information.
