COMPONENT CHIP FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18166350 titled 'COMPONENT CHIP FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

The abstract of the patent application discusses a wireless communication device (WCD) that includes multiple component chips working together to communicate using a quantity of spatial streams that exceeds the capacity of any one component chip when operated independently.

  • The WCD is configurable to work as a partitioned chip with the capability to handle a high number of spatial streams.
  • Component chips have frequency domain components supporting spatial streams in the frequency domain and time domain components supporting spatial streams in the time domain.
  • The component chips can transmit or receive different quantities of spatial streams, with some handling multiple streams and others handling a single stream.

Potential Applications: - High-speed wireless communication systems - Multi-user MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) systems - Next-generation wireless networks

Problems Solved: - Increasing the capacity and efficiency of wireless communication devices - Enhancing data transmission rates in crowded wireless environments

Benefits: - Improved data throughput and network performance - Enhanced user experience with faster and more reliable wireless connections

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Wireless Communication Devices for High-Speed Networks" This technology can be used in 5G and beyond networks, IoT devices, smart homes, and industrial automation systems, among others.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve the efficiency of wireless communication devices? - This technology allows for the handling of a higher quantity of spatial streams, leading to increased data throughput and network performance.

2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in real-world wireless communication systems? - Some challenges may include compatibility issues with existing systems, cost of implementation, and ensuring seamless integration with different devices and networks.


Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. For example, a wireless communication device (WCD), may include multiple component chips configurable to work together as a partitioned chip having a capability to communicate using a quantity of spatial streams that exceeds a capacity of any one of the multiple component chips when operated independently. Some aspects more specifically relate to component chips having frequency domain components that support a first quantity of spatial streams in a frequency domain and having time domain components that support a second quantity of spatial streams in a time domain. In some examples, the first quantity of spatial streams may correspond to a quantity of spatial streams that are transmitted or received by multiple component chips, and the second quantity of spatial streams may correspond to a quantity of spatial streams that are transmitted or received by a single component chip.
