ENHANCED CHANNEL ACCESS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18271558 titled 'ENHANCED CHANNEL ACCESS
Simplified Explanation:
This patent application describes systems, methods, and instrumentalities for enhanced channel access in a network, specifically focusing on load-based equipment (LBE) access in a frame-based equipment (FBE) network.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Enables load-based equipment (LBE) access in a frame-based equipment (FBE) network
- Wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) determines validity of LBE resources based on channel occupancy
- LBE resources used based on transmission priority, type, requirements, and/or grant
- LBE resources can be used as fallback resources
Potential Applications:
This technology can be applied in wireless communication networks to optimize channel access and resource allocation.
Problems Solved:
This technology addresses the challenge of efficiently managing resources in wireless networks to improve overall performance.
Benefits:
The benefits of this technology include enhanced channel access, improved resource utilization, and better network efficiency.
Commercial Applications:
Potential commercial applications include telecommunications infrastructure, IoT networks, and other wireless communication systems.
Prior Art:
Prior art related to this technology may include research on resource allocation in wireless networks and channel access optimization.
Frequently Updated Research:
Stay updated on the latest research in resource allocation algorithms and network optimization techniques in wireless communication systems.
Questions about Enhanced Channel Access: 1. How does this technology improve resource allocation in wireless networks? 2. What are the key factors considered when determining the validity of load-based equipment (LBE) resources?
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are described herein for enhanced channel access. Resources may be configured to enable load-based equipment (LBE) access in an otherwise frame-based equipment (FBE) network. LBE access may be, for example, LBT category four (Cat 4). A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may determine whether an LBE resource is valid based on current channel occupancy. A WTRU may use an LBE resource as a function of a transmission priority (e.g., priority of the content of the transmission, for example a first PUSCH transmission may be associated with a first priority and a second PUSCH transmission may be associated with a second priority), transmission type (e.g., whether the transmission is for PUSCH or PUCCH, for DG-PUSCH or CG-PUSCH, for data or CSI or HARQ-ACK, etc.), requirement(s), and/or grant. A WTRU may use an LBE resource, for example, as a fallback resource.
