TECHNIQUES FOR BEAM WIDTH ADJUSTMENT IN BEAMFORMING COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240243791 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR BEAM WIDTH ADJUSTMENT IN BEAMFORMING COMMUNICATIONS
The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on beamforming in a near field communication scenario. A user equipment (UE) in close proximity to a base station receives a beamformed signal via a three-dimensional (3D) transmission beam. The UE analyzes the signal strength distribution at its antenna panel, calculates signal weights for different portions of the panel, and reports beam adjustment information to the base station. The base station then adjusts the beamwidth of the 3D transmission beam based on this information, enhancing communication data rates through improved beamforming gain.
- User equipment (UE) receives a beamformed signal from a base station in a near field via a 3D transmission beam.
- The UE analyzes the signal strength distribution at its antenna panel and calculates signal weights for different portions of the panel.
- Beam adjustment information is reported to the base station, which then adjusts the beamwidth of the 3D transmission beam for subsequent transmissions.
- This adjustment increases beamforming gain at the antenna, leading to improved communication data rates.

Original Abstract Submitted
methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. a user equipment (ue) located in a near field of a base station may receive a beamformed signal from the base station via a three-dimensional (3d) transmission beam. the ue may receive the signal at an antenna panel and detect a signal strength distribution of the signal at the antenna panel. the ue may calculate a signal weight for each portion of the antenna panel and determine beam adjustment information based on the signal weights. the ue may report the beam adjustment information to the base station, and the base station may use the beam adjustment information to adjust the beamwidth of the 3d transmission beam for subsequent transmissions to the ue, which may increase a beamforming gain at the antenna, and improve communication data rate.
