COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND COMMUNICATION METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18547204 titled 'COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND COMMUNICATION METHOD

The abstract describes a communication device that autonomously selects antenna ports to transmit data signals to another communication device.

  • Control unit determines antenna port for data signal
  • Transmitting unit sends information on selected antenna port and data signal to another device
  • Data signals transmitted using selected antenna port in autonomously chosen resources

Potential Applications: - Wireless communication systems - Internet of Things (IoT) devices - Mobile devices

Problems Solved: - Efficient data transmission - Optimal antenna port selection - Seamless communication between devices

Benefits: - Improved signal quality - Enhanced data transmission speed - Reduced interference

Commercial Applications: - Telecommunications industry - IoT device manufacturers - Mobile device companies

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the device determine the optimal antenna port for data transmission? 2. What are the potential limitations of autonomously selecting antenna ports for data signals?


Original Abstract Submitted

A communication device includes: a control unit configured to determine an antenna port to apply to a data signal; and a transmitting unit configured to transmit, to another communication device, information that indicates the determined antenna port, and the data signal that is transmitted, in autonomously selected resources, by using the determined antenna port.
