RESETTING A BEAM BASED AT LEAST IN PART ON A SUBCARRIER SPACING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18549823 titled 'RESETTING A BEAM BASED AT LEAST IN PART ON A SUBCARRIER SPACING

Simplified Explanation

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a network entity, a transmit receive point (TRP)-specific beam failure recovery (BFR) medium access control control element (MAC-CE) indicating a new beam for the UE based at least in part on a TRP with beam failure. The UE may receive, from the network entity, a TRP-specific BFR response based at least in part on the TRP-specific BFR MAC-CE. The UE may determine a subcarrier spacing (SCS) for a TRP-specific BFR beam resetting timing based at least in part on an SCS associated with the TRP-specific BFR response being different than an SCS associated with the TRP with beam failure. Numerous other aspects are described.

  • User equipment (UE) can transmit a TRP-specific BFR MAC-CE to a network entity to indicate a new beam based on a TRP with beam failure.
  • The UE receives a TRP-specific BFR response from the network entity based on the MAC-CE.
  • The UE determines subcarrier spacing (SCS) for beam resetting timing based on the SCS associated with the BFR response.

This technology can be applied in:

  • 5G and future wireless communication systems
  • Beamforming and beam management in wireless networks

What are the specific requirements for determining the subcarrier spacing for beam resetting in this technology?

The specific requirements for determining the subcarrier spacing for beam resetting in this technology are based on the SCS associated with the TRP-specific BFR response being different than the SCS associated with the TRP with beam failure.

How does this technology improve beam failure recovery in wireless communication systems compared to existing solutions?

This technology improves beam failure recovery in wireless communication systems by allowing the UE to transmit a TRP-specific BFR MAC-CE to indicate a new beam based on a TRP with beam failure, thus enabling more efficient and reliable recovery mechanisms.
