METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM FOR ENVIRONMENT AWARE MIMO FOR HIGH FREQUENCY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240283513 titled 'METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM FOR ENVIRONMENT AWARE MIMO FOR HIGH FREQUENCY

The present disclosure involves determining beamforming information and channel information for communication between a transmitter and receiver using a propagation path map. This map establishes a connection between the receiver's location and channel characteristics through direct and reflection propagation paths. By utilizing this map, more precise receiver location, angle of arrival (AOA), angle of departure (AOD), and other sensing data can be obtained for beamforming and enhancing the RF propagation map.

  • Utilizes a propagation path map to establish a link between receiver location and channel characteristics.
  • Enables accurate determination of receiver location, AOA, AOD, and other sensing information for beamforming.

Original Abstract Submitted

aspects of the present disclosure enable the determination of beamforming information and channel information for communication between a transmitter and receiver by using a propagation path map. the propagation path map may provide an association between a location of the receiver and channel characteristics between the transmitter and the receiver via a direct propagation path and possible reflection propagation paths. the propagation path map may be used to obtain a more accurate location of the receiver, aoa at the transmitter and/or receiver, aod at the transmitter, and/or receiver and other sensing information for beamforming and improving the rf propagation map. the association between a location of the receiver and channel characteristics between the transmitter and the receiver may then aid in performing beam measurements and/or channel measurements.
