APPARATUS, BASE STATION, AND METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18431252 titled 'APPARATUS, BASE STATION, AND METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application abstract describes an apparatus that communicates with multiple networks, determines a parameter value for switching between networks, receives and transmits messages to base stations, and acquires system information blocks.

  • The apparatus includes a memory storing a program and one or more processors executing the program.
  • The apparatus communicates with a first network and a second network.
  • It determines a parameter value for switching to the second network while in an RRC connected state in the first network.
  • The apparatus receives an RRCReconfiguration message from a base station in the first network.
  • It transmits a UEAssistanceInformation message to the base station based on the received information.

Original Abstract Submitted

An apparatus () includes: a memory storing a program; and one or more processors configured to execute the program to: communicate with a first network and a second network; determine a parameter value of a periodic gap for switching the apparatus to the second network in a case where the apparatus is in a radio resource control, RRC, connected state in the first network, the periodic gap being used for acquiring a periodic system information block, SIB, from the second network; receive, from a base station () in the first network, an RRCReconfiguration message including first information for instructing a transmission of a UEAssistanceInformation message including second information for indicating the parameter value of the periodic gap; and transmit, to the base station in the first network, the UEAssistanceInformation message including the second information based on the reception of the first information.
