OPTIMIZING SPECTRAL EFFICIENCY IN A 5G MASSIVE MIMO SPLIT ARCHITECTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18548942 titled 'OPTIMIZING SPECTRAL EFFICIENCY IN A 5G MASSIVE MIMO SPLIT ARCHITECTURE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application relates to scheduling user equipment (UE) transmissions in a 5G New Radio system with a split architecture.

  • The scheduler selects a beamforming algorithm for a UE group based on characteristics of the algorithm and/or the UE group.
  • The scheduler determines an effective Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR) for the UE group and a summed proportional fair metric for the group.
  • The scheduler schedules a transmission for either the first UE or the UE group based on proportional fair metrics.
    • Potential Applications:**

- 5G New Radio systems - Wireless communication networks - Beamforming algorithms

    • Problems Solved:**

- Efficient scheduling of UE transmissions - Optimizing network performance - Managing resources effectively

    • Benefits:**

- Improved network efficiency - Enhanced user experience - Better utilization of resources


Original Abstract Submitted

This disclosure relates to apparatuses, systems, and methods for scheduling user equipment (UE) transmissions, and in particular for scheduling UE transmissions in a 5G New Radio system with a split architecture. The scheduler selects a beamforming algorithm for a UE group that includes a first UE and a second UE, where the beamforming algorithm is based on characteristics of the beamforming algorithm and/or the UE group. The scheduler determines an effective SINR for the UE group based on the beamforming algorithm and determines a summed proportion fair metric for the UE group based on the effective SINR for the UE group. The scheduler schedules a transmission for either the first UE or the UE group, based on a proportional fair metric for the first UE and the summed proportional fair metric for the UE group.
