ADJUSTMENT OF DOWNLINK RADIO-FRAME TIMING FOR COORDINATED MULTI-POINT RECEPTION BY USER EQUIPMENT IN ADVANCED COMMUNICATION NETWORKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240244556 titled 'ADJUSTMENT OF DOWNLINK RADIO-FRAME TIMING FOR COORDINATED MULTI-POINT RECEPTION BY USER EQUIPMENT IN ADVANCED COMMUNICATION NETWORKS

Simplified Explanation

The technology described in this patent application aims to align the downlink symbol timing boundaries of coordinated multi-point transmitting radio units. This ensures that a user equipment receives signals from each cell at the same time, improving performance and coverage.

  • By offsetting the downlink symbol timing boundaries, the targeted user equipment receives symbols at the desired time boundary, leading to constructive interference and improved throughput and coverage.
  • Time alignment via offset symbol timing boundaries eliminates inter-symbol interference.
  • Modified scheduling prevents interference between downlink and uplink transmissions from coordinated radio units.

Original Abstract Submitted

the technology described herein is directed towards aligning the downlink symbol timing boundaries of coordinated multi-point (comp) transmitting radio units, so that a user equipment receives transmitted signals from each cell at generally the same time. in a comp scenario, synchronized downlink transmissions from a connected cell and a cooperating cell are generally not received at the same time by a target user equipment because of different propagation distances from the transmitting radio units; such misalignment leads to performance degradation. by offsetting the downlink symbol timing boundaries relative to each other, a targeted user equipment receives symbols at the desired time boundary, resulting in constructive interference that improves and a cell's downlink throughput and/or coverage. time alignment via offset symbol timing boundaries also eliminates inter-symbol interference. modified scheduling can be used to ensure that downlink and uplink transmissions from the coordinated radio units do not interfere with one another.
