COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18167161 titled 'COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an application that enables a network device to configure a terminal device to send a demodulation reference signal symbol in a different-configuration slot. This increases the uplink communication capacity of the terminal device by increasing the quantity of demodulation reference signal ports supported by each demodulation reference signal code division multiplexing group.
- The application provides a communication method and apparatus for configuring a terminal device to send a demodulation reference signal symbol in a different-configuration slot.
- The quantity of consecutive resource elements occupied by each demodulation reference signal code division multiplexing group is greater than 2.
- This increases the quantity of demodulation reference signal ports supported by each group, thereby increasing the uplink communication capacity of the terminal device.
- The increase in capacity is achieved without changing the quantity of demodulation reference signal code division multiplexing groups in each symbol.
- This innovation helps meet the uplink transmission requirement of the terminal device.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems to increase the uplink communication capacity of terminal devices.
- It can be used in various industries that rely on wireless communication, such as telecommunications, IoT, and mobile devices.
Problems Solved
- The technology solves the problem of limited uplink communication capacity in terminal devices.
- It addresses the need for increased capacity without changing the existing demodulation reference signal code division multiplexing groups.
Benefits
- Increased uplink communication capacity allows for improved data transmission and faster communication.
- The technology provides a more efficient use of resources without requiring significant changes to the existing system.
- It helps meet the uplink transmission requirement of terminal devices, enhancing overall network performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
This application provides a communication method and apparatus, so that a first network device can configure a terminal device to send a demodulation reference signal symbol in a first different-configuration slot. A quantity of consecutive resource elements occupied by each demodulation reference signal code division multiplexing group included in a demodulation reference signal symbol is greater than 2. Therefore, a quantity of demodulation reference signal ports supported by each demodulation reference signal code division multiplexing group is greater than 2, so that an uplink communication capacity of the terminal in the different-configuration slot can be increased when a quantity of demodulation reference signal code division multiplexing groups in each demodulation reference signal symbol remains unchanged, to meet an uplink transmission requirement of the terminal device.
