FLOW CONTROL FEEDBACK IN AN INTEGRATED ACCESS AND BACKHAUL NETWORK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18563833 titled 'FLOW CONTROL FEEDBACK IN AN INTEGRATED ACCESS AND BACKHAUL NETWORK

The patent application describes a method for processing flow control feedback in an IAB network with multiple IAB nodes.

  • IAB nodes are responsible for delivering data from an ingress link to an egress link.
  • The method involves receiving flow control feedback from another IAB node over an egress backhaul link.
  • The feedback includes link identification information.
  • The IAB node determines at least one ingress backhaul link to use for forwarding the feedback.
  • Information in the feedback is updated for the determined backhaul link.
  • The updated feedback is then transmitted over the determined backhaul link.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied in wireless communication networks to improve flow control and data delivery efficiency. - It can be used in IoT networks to enhance communication between devices and gateways.

Problems Solved: - Efficient processing of flow control feedback in IAB networks. - Optimization of data delivery in wireless communication systems.

Benefits: - Enhanced network performance. - Improved data transmission reliability. - Better utilization of network resources.

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Flow Control Feedback Processing for Wireless Networks" This technology can be utilized by telecommunications companies to enhance the performance of their wireless networks, leading to improved customer satisfaction and network efficiency. It can also be integrated into IoT systems to optimize data transmission and communication between devices.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve the overall efficiency of data delivery in wireless networks? 2. What are the key advantages of using flow control feedback processing in an IAB network?


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for processing a flow control feedback in an IAB network comprising a plurality of IAB nodes is disclosed. Each IAB node is configured to deliver data received over an ingress link to an egress link. The method, at the IAB node, comprises receiving, from another IAB node over an egress backhaul link between the IAB node and the another IAB node, a flow control feedback comprising link identification information, determining at least one ingress backhaul link for use in forwarding the flow control feedback, updating information included in the flow control feedback for at least one of the determined at least one ingress backhaul link to provide an updated flow control feedback for the at least one of the determined at least one ingress backhaul link, transmitting the updated flow control feedback over the at least one of the determined at least one ingress backhaul link.
