ALIGNING TIME DURATIONS FOR SIGNALING AND MEASUREMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240187902 titled 'ALIGNING TIME DURATIONS FOR SIGNALING AND MEASUREMENT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications where a user equipment (UE) receives a control message from a network entity indicating a set of periodicities for the UE to perform signaling and measurement, with the duration of these activities aligned outside of the duration for receiving data.

  • The UE performs operations during specific durations based on the periodicities determined by the network entity.
  • Communication between the UE and the network entity is based on the control message indicating the periodicities and the UE's actions during the specified durations.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in:

  • 5G networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Mobile communication systems

Problems Solved

This technology solves issues related to:

  • Efficient resource allocation in wireless networks
  • Optimizing signaling and measurement procedures for UEs
  • Enhancing communication reliability and performance

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved network efficiency
  • Enhanced user experience
  • Reduced interference and latency in wireless communications

Potential Commercial Applications

Commercial applications of this technology may include:

  • Telecom equipment manufacturing
  • Network infrastructure development
  • Wireless communication service providers

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art for this technology could be:

  • Patent US20180050952A1 - Method and apparatus for wireless communication with periodic resource allocation

Unanswered Questions

The patent application does not address the security aspects related to the communication between the UE and the network entity during the specified durations.


Original Abstract Submitted

methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. a user equipment (ue) may receive, from a network entity, a control message indicating a set of periodicities determined at the network entity and associated with at least a first duration of a set of first durations for the ue to perform signaling and measurement, the first duration aligned outside of a second duration of a set of second durations for the ue to receive data based on the set of periodicities. the ue may perform one or more operations during the first duration based on the first duration of the set of first durations being aligned outside the second duration of the set of second durations. the ue and the network entity may communicate based on the control message indicating the set of periodicities and the ue performing the one or more operations during the first duration.
