METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SL MULTI-BEAM OPERATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18340688 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SL MULTI-BEAM OPERATION
Simplified Explanation
Methods and apparatuses for SL multi-beam operations in a wireless communication system are provided. The patent application describes a method of operating a user equipment (UE) in which a SL channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) is transmitted to a second UE using multiple spatial domain transmit filters. The second UE then sends a first beam measurement report back to the first UE. Based on this report, the first UE determines a first beam indication and transmits a first physical SL control channel (PSCCH) or physical SL shared channel (PSSCH) accordingly.
- The patent application describes a method for operating a user equipment in a wireless communication system.
- The method involves transmitting a SL channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) to a second user equipment using multiple spatial domain transmit filters.
- The second user equipment sends a first beam measurement report back to the first user equipment.
- Based on the first beam measurement report, the first user equipment determines a first beam indication.
- The first user equipment then transmits a first physical SL control channel (PSCCH) or physical SL shared channel (PSSCH) based on the determined first beam indication.
Potential applications of this technology:
- This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems to improve the efficiency and reliability of sidelink (SL) operations.
- It can be used in various wireless communication devices such as smartphones, tablets, and IoT devices.
- It can enhance the performance of SL communication in scenarios where multiple beams are required.
Problems solved by this technology:
- This technology solves the problem of efficiently transmitting SL channel state information-reference signals (CSI-RS) to multiple user equipment.
- It addresses the challenge of determining the appropriate beam indication based on beam measurement reports.
- It solves the problem of transmitting the appropriate physical SL control channel (PSCCH) or physical SL shared channel (PSSCH) based on the determined beam indication.
Benefits of this technology:
- This technology improves the overall performance and reliability of SL operations in wireless communication systems.
- It enables efficient transmission of SL channel state information-reference signals (CSI-RS) using multiple spatial domain transmit filters.
- It enhances the accuracy of beam indication determination, leading to better beamforming and communication quality.
- It optimizes the transmission of physical SL control channels (PSCCH) or physical SL shared channels (PSSCH) based on the determined beam indication.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods and apparatuses for SL multi-beam operations in a wireless communication system are provided. A method of operating a user equipment (UE) includes transmitting, to a second UE, a sidelink (SL) channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) using multiple spatial domain transmit filters and receiving, from the second UE, a first beam measurement report. The method further includes determining, based on the first beam measurement report, a first beam indication and transmitting, based on the determined first beam indication, a first physical SL control channel (PSCCH) or physical SL shared channel (PSSCH).
