FLIGHT PATH REPORTING ENHANCEMENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240321112 titled 'FLIGHT PATH REPORTING ENHANCEMENTS
The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on aerial user equipments (AUEs) providing flightpath information to the network.
- AUEs can indicate flightpath information to the network, including expected geographic locations and estimated timestamps with associated uncertainty values.
- The network can manage communications resources for AUEs based on the time and uncertainty associated with each indicated point along the flightpath.
- A network entity can request a flightpath report from an AUE, which may include a filter to apply to the report.
- AUEs can report the flightpath using an algebraic expression to reduce the amount of data compared to a report with a set of waypoints.
Potential Applications: - Air traffic control systems - Drone delivery services - Emergency response coordination
Problems Solved: - Efficient management of communications resources for AUEs - Accurate tracking of AUEs along their flightpaths - Reduction of data transmission for flightpath reports
Benefits: - Improved network resource allocation - Enhanced tracking and monitoring of AUEs - Streamlined communication between AUEs and the network
Commercial Applications: Title: "Optimized Wireless Communication for Aerial User Equipments" This technology can be utilized in industries such as aviation, drone services, and emergency response to enhance communication and tracking capabilities for AUEs.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve the efficiency of communication for AUEs? 2. What are the potential safety implications of using this technology for aerial communications?
Original Abstract Submitted
methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. aerial user equipments (aues) may indicate flightpath information to the network (e.g., to a serving network entity). a network entity may request a flightpath report, which may include a sequence of expected geographic locations. an aue may include estimated timestamps and uncertainty values associated with each timestamp with the flightpath report. accordingly, the network may manage communications resources for the aue accounting for the time and associated uncertainty that the aue will be at each indicated point along the flightpath. a network entity may indicate a filter to apply to the flightpath report, and accordingly the aue may report the portion of the flightpath that is relevant to the given network entity. the aue may report the flightpath using an algebraic expression to reduce the amount of data as compared to a flightpath report that includes a set of waypoints.
