COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240349264 titled 'COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a communication method and apparatus where a terminal device determines time-frequency resources based on configuration information to receive or send zero-power signals.
- Terminal device determines time-frequency resources based on configuration information
- Receives zero-power downlink signal on determined resources
- Sends zero-power uplink signal on determined resources
Potential Applications: 1. Wireless communication systems 2. Internet of Things (IoT) devices 3. Mobile networks
Problems Solved: 1. Efficient use of time-frequency resources 2. Reduced power consumption 3. Improved signal transmission reliability
Benefits: 1. Enhanced communication efficiency 2. Lower energy consumption 3. Increased network capacity
Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized in telecommunications, IoT devices, and mobile networks to improve signal transmission efficiency and reduce power consumption, leading to cost savings and enhanced network performance.
Questions about Communication Method and Apparatus: 1. How does the terminal device determine the time-frequency resources? 2. What are the advantages of using zero-power signals in communication systems?
2. Another relevant generic question, with a detailed answer.
Original Abstract Submitted
a communication method and apparatus are provided. a terminal device determines a first time-frequency resource and a second time-frequency resource based on received first configuration information and received second configuration information, and receives a zero-power downlink signal on the first time-frequency resource and the second time-frequency resource; and/or determines a third time-frequency resource and a fourth time-frequency resource based on received third configuration information and received fourth configuration information, and sends a zero-power uplink signal on the third time-frequency resource and the fourth time-frequency resource.
