ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR CHANNEL MEASUREMENT AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18343532 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR CHANNEL MEASUREMENT AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

An electronic device and method for channel measurement in a wireless communication system are disclosed. The device includes a communication circuit and a processor. The processor is configured to obtain measurement-related information from a message related to the release of a radio resource control (RRC) connection of the device to a network. It identifies frequencies for measurement while the device is in an RRC idle or inactive state with the network. Based on the priority of a frequency used for access between the device and the network and the channel state between them, the processor generates a frequency list including at least one frequency for measurement. The device sequentially performs measurements based on the priority of the frequencies in the list while in an RRC idle or inactive state. It also controls the communication circuit to transmit the measurement results to the network upon transitioning to an RRC connected state.

  • The disclosed electronic device and method enable efficient channel measurement in a wireless communication system.
  • The device obtains measurement-related information from a message related to the release of an RRC connection, allowing it to identify frequencies for measurement.
  • Based on the priority of a frequency used for access and the channel state, the device generates a frequency list for measurement.
  • The device performs measurements sequentially based on the priority of the frequencies in the list while in an RRC idle or inactive state.
  • Upon transitioning to an RRC connected state, the device transmits the measurement results to the network.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems: The disclosed device and method can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, to improve channel measurement efficiency.
  • Network optimization: By efficiently measuring channel conditions, the device can provide valuable information for network optimization, such as determining the best frequency for access and improving overall network performance.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Inefficient channel measurement: Traditional methods may not effectively utilize available frequencies for measurement, leading to suboptimal network performance.
  • Limited measurement capabilities: Some devices may have limited resources for performing measurements, resulting in incomplete or inaccurate channel information.
  • Ineffective utilization of measurement results: Without a systematic approach to measurement and transmission, measurement results may not be effectively utilized for network optimization.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved network performance: By efficiently measuring channel conditions, the disclosed device and method can contribute to improved network performance, including better signal quality and increased data throughput.
  • Enhanced resource allocation: Accurate and timely measurement results enable better resource allocation, ensuring that network resources are effectively utilized.
  • Cost and energy efficiency: By performing measurements based on priority and controlling the transmission of results, the device optimizes resource usage, leading to cost and energy savings.
