REFERENCE SIGNAL AND CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION PROCESSING OUTSIDE A DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION ACTIVE TIME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240206006 titled 'REFERENCE SIGNAL AND CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION PROCESSING OUTSIDE A DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION ACTIVE TIME
The abstract describes a patent application for a wireless communication system that operates in a connected DRX mode based on a wakeup signal (WUS), with active and inactive times. The first network entity sends capability information to a second network entity to process reference signal information during the DRX inactive time. The first network entity receives a configuration from the second network entity based on the capability information, specifying how to process the reference signal information during the DRX inactive time.
- Wireless communication system operates in a connected DRX mode based on a wakeup signal (WUS).
- First network entity sends capability information to second network entity for processing reference signal information during DRX inactive time.
- Configuration received from second network entity specifies how to process reference signal information during DRX inactive time.
- First network entity processes reference signal information according to the received configuration during DRX inactive time.
Potential Applications: - Mobile communication networks - Internet of Things (IoT) devices - Smart city infrastructure
Problems Solved: - Efficient utilization of network resources during inactive times - Improved communication reliability in wireless networks
Benefits: - Enhanced network performance - Reduced power consumption for connected devices - Seamless communication handover between active and inactive times
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Wireless Communication System for IoT Devices" This technology can be applied in various industries such as telecommunications, smart home automation, and industrial IoT for improved connectivity and resource management.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the connected DRX mode improve network efficiency?
- The connected DRX mode allows devices to synchronize their active and inactive times, reducing unnecessary signaling and conserving energy.
2. What are the key benefits of processing reference signal information during DRX inactive time?
- Processing reference signal information during inactive times ensures continuous network monitoring and optimization without disrupting device sleep cycles.
Original Abstract Submitted
a first network entity for wireless communication may be configured to operate according to a connected drx mode based on a wakeup signal (wus), wherein the connected drx mode includes a drx active time and a drx inactive time. the first network entity may send, to a second network entity, capability information of the first network entity to process, during the drx inactive time, reference signal information, wherein the reference signal information includes one or more of: a reference signal or a reference signal report. the first network entity may receive, from the second network entity, a configuration based on the capability information, wherein the configuration specifies how the first network entity is to process the reference signal information during the drx inactive time, and may process the reference signal information during the drx inactive time in accordance with the configuration.
