SUPPORT OF PUCCH TRANSMISSIONS FOR REDUCED-BANDWIDTH USER EQUIPMENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18286091 titled 'SUPPORT OF PUCCH TRANSMISSIONS FOR REDUCED-BANDWIDTH USER EQUIPMENTS

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are described that support physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmissions for reduced-bandwidth user equipments (UEs). One method performed by a UE includes receiving configuration information to be utilized to communicate with a base station, the configuration information including information indicating whether frequency hopping, associated with transmission of control information via PUCCH, is enabled or disabled; and transmitting control information via the PUCCH based on whether the frequency hopping is enabled or disabled. Other methods, devices, and systems for supporting PUCCH transmission for reduced-bandwidth UEs are included.

    • Key Features and Innovation:**

- Support for PUCCH transmissions for reduced-bandwidth UEs. - Configuration information includes enabling or disabling frequency hopping for control information transmission. - Efficient communication with base stations based on configuration settings.

    • Potential Applications:**

- Mobile communication systems. - Internet of Things (IoT) devices. - Wireless sensor networks.

    • Problems Solved:**

- Addressing the challenge of supporting PUCCH transmissions for UEs with limited bandwidth. - Optimizing control information transmission for efficient communication.

    • Benefits:**

- Improved communication efficiency for reduced-bandwidth UEs. - Enhanced reliability of control information transmission. - Better utilization of available bandwidth resources.

    • Commercial Applications:**

- Telecom equipment manufacturers. - IoT device manufacturers. - Wireless network operators.

    • Prior Art:**

Prior research may include studies on PUCCH transmission optimization and bandwidth efficiency in wireless communication systems.

    • Frequently Updated Research:**

Ongoing research may focus on further enhancing the efficiency and reliability of PUCCH transmissions for reduced-bandwidth UEs.

    • Questions about PUCCH Transmission for Reduced-Bandwidth UEs:**

1. How does the configuration information impact the efficiency of PUCCH transmissions? 2. What are the implications of enabling or disabling frequency hopping for control information transmission via PUCCH?
