UPLINK CHANNEL TRANSMISSION FOR MULTIPLE TRANSMIT RECEIVE POINTS (TRPS) - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18375675 titled 'UPLINK CHANNEL TRANSMISSION FOR MULTIPLE TRANSMIT RECEIVE POINTS (TRPS)

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for resolving overlapping uplink channels in a multi-TRP scenario, where a user equipment (UE) eliminates overlap of physical uplink control channels (PUCCHs) and physical uplink shared channels (PUSCHs) mapped to the same or different transmit receive points (TRPs).

  • User equipment (UE) resolves overlapping physical uplink control channels (PUCCHs) and physical uplink shared channels (PUSCHs) in a multi-TRP scenario.
  • The UE eliminates overlap of uplink channels for each TRP individually and between different TRPs.
  • This method helps in efficient transmission of uplink channels in scenarios with multiple TRPs.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in:

  • 5G and beyond wireless communication systems
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Mobile broadband networks

Problems Solved

The technology solves the following problems:

  • Efficient utilization of uplink channels in multi-TRP scenarios
  • Avoiding interference between overlapping uplink channels
  • Enhancing overall system capacity and performance

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved uplink channel transmission efficiency
  • Enhanced network performance in multi-TRP scenarios
  • Better quality of service for users

Potential Commercial Applications

The technology can be commercially applied in:

  • Telecommunication companies for improving network efficiency
  • IoT device manufacturers for better connectivity
  • Network equipment vendors for enhancing system performance

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of interference cancellation techniques in wireless communication systems to mitigate overlapping channel interference. Another could be the use of dynamic channel allocation algorithms to optimize channel resources in multi-TRP scenarios.

Unanswered Questions

How does the technology handle dynamic changes in channel conditions in real-time?

The patent application does not provide details on how the method adapts to changing channel conditions during transmission.

What impact does the resolution of overlapping channels have on power consumption of the user equipment?

The application does not address the potential impact on power consumption when resolving overlapping uplink channels.


Original Abstract Submitted

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses for uplink channel transmission for multiple transmit receive points (TRPs). In one aspect, a user equipment (UE) resolves overlapping physical uplink control channels (PUCCHs) in a slot or overlapping PUCCH(s) and PUSCH(s) that are mapped to a same TRP in a multi-TRP scenario and that are mapped to two or more different TRPs in the multi-TRP scenario. For example, in a multi-TRP scenario that includes two TRPs, the UE may eliminate overlap of these uplink channels for each of the two TRPs individually and may additionally eliminate overlap of these uplink channels between the two TRPs.
