SSB SPECIFIC PRACH CONFIGURATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18333336 titled 'SSB SPECIFIC PRACH CONFIGURATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an apparatus that receives information about different configurations for a PRACH (Physical Random Access Channel) and radio beams. It then selects a radio beam and PRACH configuration based on the received information and transmits a radio access preamble to a network node.

  • The apparatus receives information about different PRACH configurations and radio beams.
  • It selects a radio beam and PRACH configuration based on the received information.
  • It transmits a radio access preamble to a network node using the selected radio beam and PRACH configuration.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be used in wireless communication systems to improve the efficiency and reliability of radio access procedures.
  • It can be applied in cellular networks to enhance the performance of PRACH transmissions.

Problems Solved

  • The apparatus solves the problem of selecting the appropriate PRACH configuration and radio beam for transmitting a radio access preamble.
  • It addresses the challenge of optimizing the communication between a network node and a repeater.

Benefits

  • The apparatus improves the overall performance and reliability of radio access procedures.
  • It enhances the efficiency of PRACH transmissions in cellular networks.
  • It enables better communication between network nodes and repeaters.


Original Abstract Submitted

An apparatus may be configured to: receive information comprising at least: an indication of a first PRACH configuration, wherein the first PRACH configuration is associated with an identifier of at least one first radio beam, and an indication of a second PRACH configuration, at least partially different from the first PRACH configuration, wherein the second PRACH configuration is associated with an identifier of at least one second radio beam, wherein the at least one second radio beam comprises, at least, a radio beam for communicating with a network node via a repeater; select a radio beam; select a PRACH configuration based, at least partially, on the received information; and transmit, to the network node, a radio access preamble on the selected radio beam according to the selected PRACH configuration.
