ON DEMAND TRANSMISSION OF DEFERRED SEMI-PERSISTENT SCHEDULING FEEDBACK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18547841 titled 'ON DEMAND TRANSMISSION OF DEFERRED SEMI-PERSISTENT SCHEDULING FEEDBACK

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on semi-persistent scheduling transmissions in a user equipment (UE) when the availability of uplink symbols changes. The UE is configured to defer transmission of feedback until a subsequent uplink resource, based on the first configuration, but not based on the second configuration received from the base station.

  • User equipment (UE) configured with first and second configurations for semi-persistent scheduling transmissions.
  • UE defers feedback transmission based on first configuration but not on second configuration.
  • Base station provides indication of second configuration to UE for scheduling transmissions.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various wireless communication systems where semi-persistent scheduling transmissions are utilized, such as in 4G and 5G networks.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient management of uplink resources in wireless communications. 2. Ensuring timely transmission of feedback to the base station despite changes in uplink symbol availability.

Benefits

1. Improved reliability and performance of wireless communication systems. 2. Enhanced user experience with reduced delays in feedback transmission.

Potential Commercial Applications

  • Telecommunication companies can integrate this technology into their network infrastructure to optimize uplink resource utilization.
  • Device manufacturers can implement this innovation in their products to enhance the efficiency of wireless communication.

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to semi-persistent scheduling transmissions in wireless communications systems, but specific examples are not provided in the patent application.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact battery life in user equipment (UE)?

The patent application does not mention any details about the potential impact on battery life in UE due to the implementation of the described methods. It would be interesting to know if there are any optimizations in place to minimize energy consumption.

What are the potential security implications of deferring feedback transmission in wireless communications?

The patent application does not address the security aspects of deferring feedback transmission in wireless communications. It would be important to understand if there are any vulnerabilities introduced by delaying the transmission of critical feedback data.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured with a first configuration that the UE is to use for semi-persistent scheduling transmissions when availability of one or more uplink symbols in which the feedback is scheduled for transmission to a base station changes (e.g., due to a slot format change). The UE may be configured to defer transmission of the feedback until a subsequent uplink resource. The UE may receive, from the base station, an indication of a second configuration that the UE is to use for the semi-persistent scheduling transmissions when availability of one or more uplink symbols in which the feedback is scheduled for transmission to a base station changes. The UE may not defer transmission based on the second configuration.
