BEAM MANAGEMENT FEEDBACK COMPRESSION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18159077 titled 'BEAM MANAGEMENT FEEDBACK COMPRESSION

The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on beam management procedures between two wireless devices.

  • The first wireless device receives a set of reference signals over multiple beams from the second wireless device during the beam management procedure.
  • Based on a distribution of probabilities for switching between beams, the first wireless device selects bit values to indicate individual beams for communication with the second wireless device.
  • Control signaling is transmitted by the first wireless device to indicate the ranking of the selected individual beams for communication with the second wireless device.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied in 5G and beyond wireless communication systems to optimize beam management procedures. - It can enhance the efficiency and reliability of communication between multiple wireless devices in various scenarios such as IoT networks, smart cities, and industrial automation.

Problems Solved: - Addressing the challenge of efficiently managing multiple beams for wireless communication to ensure seamless connectivity and data transmission. - Improving the overall performance and reliability of wireless communication systems by optimizing beam selection processes.

Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first wireless device may receive, from a second wireless device and over a plurality of different beams, a set of reference signals as part of a beam management procedure. The first wireless device may select one or more bit values for indicating to the second wireless device a corresponding one or more individual beams of the plurality of different beams for communications between the first wireless device and the second wireless device, the one or more bit values selected based on a distribution of probabilities for switching between the plurality of different beams for the communications between the first wireless device and the second wireless device. The first wireless device may transmit control signaling indicating a ranking of the one or more individual beams for the communications between the first wireless device and the second wireless device.
