MEDIUM ACCESS CONTROL SIGNALING TRIGGERING TRANSMISSION CONFIGURATION INDICATOR STATE UPDATE AND BEAM MEASUREMENT OR REPORT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240340990 titled 'MEDIUM ACCESS CONTROL SIGNALING TRIGGERING TRANSMISSION CONFIGURATION INDICATOR STATE UPDATE AND BEAM MEASUREMENT OR REPORT
The abstract of this patent application discusses various aspects related to wireless communication. In summary, it describes a method where a user equipment (UE) receives an indication via medium access control (MAC) signaling to activate one or more transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states. This triggers the measurement of a reference signal or the transmission of a measurement report for at least one TCI state, based on the association of the TCI state with the reference signal or measurement report.
- User equipment (UE) receives an indication to activate transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states via MAC signaling.
- The indication triggers the measurement of a reference signal or the transmission of a measurement report for at least one TCI state.
- Reference signal or measurement report is triggered based on the association of TCI state with the reference signal or measurement report.
- UE receives the reference signal upon activating the TCI states.
- UE transmits the measurement report triggered by the indication.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems to optimize transmission configurations for user equipment. - It can enhance the efficiency and reliability of data transmission in mobile networks.
Problems Solved: - Efficient activation and utilization of transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states in user equipment. - Streamlining the process of measuring reference signals and transmitting measurement reports in wireless communication systems.
Benefits: - Improved performance and reliability of wireless communication. - Enhanced network efficiency and data transmission quality.
Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Wireless Communication Optimization Technology This technology can be utilized in telecommunications companies to improve network performance and enhance user experience. It can also be integrated into mobile devices to optimize data transmission and connectivity.
Questions about Wireless Communication Optimization Technology: 1. How does the activation of transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states benefit user equipment in wireless communication systems? - The activation of TCI states allows for optimized transmission configurations, leading to improved network performance and data transmission efficiency.
2. What role does the medium access control (MAC) signaling play in triggering the measurement of reference signals or transmission of measurement reports in user equipment? - MAC signaling serves as the mechanism through which user equipment receives indications to activate TCI states, leading to the measurement of reference signals and transmission of measurement reports.
Original Abstract Submitted
various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. in some aspects, a user equipment (ue) may receive, via medium access control (mac) signaling, an indication to activate one or more transmission configuration indicator (tci) states for the ue, wherein the indication triggers at least one of a measurement of a reference signal or a transmission of a measurement report for at least one tci state of the one or more tci states, wherein the reference signal or the transmission of the measurement report is triggered based on an association of a tci state with the reference signal or the measurement report. the ue may receive the reference signal based on receiving the indication to activate the one or more tci states. the ue may transmit the measurement report based on the indication triggering the transmission of the measurement report. numerous other aspects are provided.
