SCELL DORMANCY SWITCHING WITH SCELL-PCELL CROSS-CARRIER SCHEDULING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18278749 titled 'SCELL DORMANCY SWITCHING WITH SCELL-PCELL CROSS-CARRIER SCHEDULING

The patent application describes an apparatus and system that support switching secondary cell (SCell) dormancy when transitioning from SCell to primary cell (PCell) transmission.

  • Physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmissions on the SCell contain a SCell dormancy indication field and a CIF to indicate cross-carrier scheduling (CCS) and SCell dormancy switching.
  • The CIF value can be 0 or indicate the PCell, depending on whether physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission is scheduled.
  • The DCI triggers bandwidth part (BWP) switching for the PCell, instructing the UE to monitor UE-specific search space sets on the PCell instead of the SCell.

Original Abstract Submitted

An apparatus and system are described to support secondary cell (SCell) dormancy switching when cross-carrier scheduling (CCS) from SCell to primary cell (PCell) transmission is supported are described. A physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmission on the sSCell has a downlink control information format (DCI) format 0_1 or 1_1 containing a SCell dormancy indication field and a CIF are used to indicate CCS and SCell dormancy switching to deactivate the SCell. The CIF value is either 0 or indicates the PCell and may depend on whether physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission is scheduled. The DCI triggers bandwidth part (BWP) switching for the PCell to indicate to the UE to switch to monitoring UE-specific search space sets on the PCell instead of on the SCell.
