COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17626572 Titled 'COMMUNICATION SYSTEM'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes a communication system where a base station communicates with a user equipment (UE) through a cell using a Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) method. If the base station detects a failure in the LBT communication in any cell, it sends a signaling message to another node (such as a central unit or a core network node) indicating that a failure has occurred. This information is then used by the other node to manage the LBT communication with the UE, such as releasing resources or deactivating cells.
Original Abstract Submitted
A communication system is disclosed in which a base station performs Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) communication with an item of user equipment (UE) via at least one cell. When the base station of the UE detects a failure associated with the LBT communication in at least one cell, the base station transmits a signalling message to another node (e.g., a central unit, a master node, a secondary node, or a core network node), the signalling message comprising information indicating that LBT failure has been detected. The information is used by the other node in managing the LBT communication with the UE (e.g., releasing resources, deactivating cells, etc.).
