USER EQUIPMENTS AND COMMUNICATION METHODS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240340972 titled 'USER EQUIPMENTS AND COMMUNICATION METHODS
The abstract describes a user equipment (UE) with a control unit that can select between a 4-step random access (RA) procedure and a 2-step RA procedure based on the UL BWP configuration with RA resources used for the feature.
- The UE can choose the RA type based on the presence of both 2-step and 4-step RA resources in the UL BWP, as well as the RSRP of downlink pathloss reference.
- If the UL BWP has only the 4-step RA type resources, the UE selects the 4-step RA procedure.
- If the UL BWP has only the 2-step RA type resources, the UE selects the 2-step RA procedure.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems to optimize random access procedures based on resource availability. - It can improve network efficiency by selecting the most suitable RA procedure according to resource allocation.
Problems Solved: - Efficient selection of RA procedures based on resource availability. - Optimization of network performance by adapting RA procedures to resource configurations.
Benefits: - Enhanced network efficiency and performance. - Improved utilization of resources in wireless communication systems.
Commercial Applications: Title: "Optimized Random Access Procedure Selection in Wireless Communication Systems" This technology can be utilized by telecommunications companies to enhance the efficiency of their networks, leading to improved service quality and customer satisfaction. It can also benefit equipment manufacturers by providing a competitive edge in the market.
Questions about Optimized Random Access Procedure Selection in Wireless Communication Systems: 1. How does the UE determine which RA procedure to select based on resource availability? - The UE selects the RA procedure based on the presence of 2-step and 4-step RA resources in the UL BWP, as well as the RSRP of downlink pathloss reference. 2. What are the potential implications of using this technology in 5G networks? - This technology can significantly improve the efficiency and performance of 5G networks by optimizing random access procedures based on resource availability.
Original Abstract Submitted
a user equipment (ue) is described. the ue may comprise control unit configured to select a ra type between a 4-step ra procedure and a 2-step ra procedure based on whether the ul bwp is further configured with ra resources used for the feature, wherein in a case that the ul bwp is configured with both a second 2-step ra type ra resources and a second 4-step ra type ra resources that are used for the feature, to select the ra type further based on a rsrp of downlink pathloss reference in a case that the ul bwp is not configured with the second 2-step ra type ra resources and the second 4-step ra type ra resources, to select the ra type further based on the rsrp, in a case that the ul bwp is configured with the second 4-step ra type ra resources and not configured with the second 2-step ra type ra resources, to select the 4-step ra procedure, and in a case that the ul bwp is configured with the second 2-step ra type ra resources and not configured with the second 4-step ra type ra resources, to select the 2-step ra procedure.
