TIMING ADVANCE FOR TRANSMITTING INFORMATION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18487539 titled 'TIMING ADVANCE FOR TRANSMITTING INFORMATION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORKS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application abstract describes a method for wireless communication involving the transmission and reception of common timing advance (TA) information between a base station (BS) and user equipment (UE) to determine the timing of uplink (UL) transmissions.

  • Receiving common timing advance (TA) information from a base station (BS)
  • Determining a common TA value for an uplink (UL) transmission based on the received information
  • Transmitting common TA information from the BS to the UE
  • Scheduling a UL transmission based on the common TA information
  • Adapting the common TA value and associated time instant information to determine the timing of the UL transmission

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems such as cellular networks, IoT devices, and satellite communication.

Problems Solved

- Ensuring accurate timing synchronization between base stations and user equipment - Optimizing the scheduling of uplink transmissions to improve network efficiency

Benefits

- Enhanced reliability and performance of wireless communication systems - Efficient utilization of network resources - Improved overall network capacity and throughput

Potential Commercial Applications

- Telecommunications companies for improving network performance - IoT device manufacturers for ensuring reliable connectivity - Satellite communication providers for optimizing data transmission

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of timing advance techniques in existing wireless communication systems to synchronize transmissions between base stations and user equipment.

=== What are the specific technical details of the timing advance calculation process? The specific technical details of how the common timing advance (TA) value is calculated and adjusted based on the received information are not provided in the abstract.

=== How does this method compare to existing timing synchronization techniques in wireless communication systems? The abstract does not mention a direct comparison with existing timing synchronization techniques, so it is unclear how this method differs or improves upon current practices.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for wireless communication includes the steps of receiving common timing advance (TA) information indicated by a base station (BS) and determining a common TA value of an uplink (UL) transmission according to the common TA information and time instant information. A method for wireless communication includes the steps of transmitting common timing advance (TA) information indicated by a BS to a user equipment (UE) and scheduling a UL transmission, the common TA information and associated time instant information being adapted to determine a common TA value of the UL transmission of the UE. Other methods for wireless communication and relevant apparatus, computer program products, and non-transitory computer-readable medium are also disclosed.
