COMMUNICATION DEVICE PRE-GRANT ASSISTANCE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240314868 titled 'COMMUNICATION DEVICE PRE-GRANT ASSISTANCE

The abstract describes a method performed by a network node to provide pre-grant assistance for a communication device with multi-connectivity over two or more legs to network nodes of a communications network. The method involves determining pre-grant assistance information based on radio resource management function status and information from other network nodes, and transmitting this information to the communication device.

• The method provides pre-grant assistance for a communication device with multi-connectivity.
• Pre-grant assistance information is determined based on radio resource management function status and information from other network nodes.
• The information includes a value for a future grant to the communication device per leg of the multi-connectivity.
• An indication with the pre-grant assistance information is transmitted to the communication device per leg of the multi-connectivity.

Original Abstract Submitted

a method performed by a network node for providing pre-grant assistance for a communication device having multi connectivity over two or more legs to two or more network nodes of a communications network is provided. the method includes determining a pre-grant assistance information for the communication device based on at least one of (i) a status of a radio resource management function and any other pre-grant assistance information sent by the network node to other communication devices connected to the network node and (ii) information received from other network nodes. the pre-grant assistance information includes a value for a future grant to the communication device per leg of the two or more legs. the method further includes transmitting to the communication device an indication including the pre-grant assistance information per leg of the two or more legs.
