COMMUNICATION DEVICE, BASE STATION APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION METHOD, AND COMMUNICATION PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240306197 titled 'COMMUNICATION DEVICE, BASE STATION APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION METHOD, AND COMMUNICATION PROGRAM
The abstract of the patent application describes a communication device with a control unit that performs channel sensing in an unlicensed band in response to an instruction from a base station apparatus. The control unit transmits uplink control information indicating the result of the channel sensing to the base station apparatus during the channel occupancy time.
- The communication device includes a control unit for channel sensing in an unlicensed band.
- The control unit receives instructions from a base station apparatus to perform the channel sensing.
- Channel sensing is performed during the channel occupancy time.
- The control unit transmits second uplink control information to the base station apparatus, indicating the result of the channel sensing.
- The second uplink control information can be multiplexed with first uplink control information.
Potential Applications: - Wireless communication systems - Internet of Things (IoT) devices - Smart home technology
Problems Solved: - Efficient utilization of unlicensed bands - Improved communication reliability - Enhanced spectrum management
Benefits: - Increased network efficiency - Reduced interference - Enhanced data transmission reliability
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Uplink Control Information Transmission for Communication Devices" This technology can be utilized in various industries such as telecommunications, IoT, and smart home automation. It can improve the performance and reliability of wireless communication systems, leading to better user experiences and increased market competitiveness.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the control unit determine the result of the channel sensing? The control unit analyzes the channel occupancy during the specified time to determine the availability of the channel for transmission. 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in real-world communication systems? Implementing this technology may require compatibility with existing infrastructure and standards, as well as addressing potential interference issues.
