CHANNEL ORIENTED MODULATION SELECTION FOR IMPROVED SPECTRAL EFFICIENCY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17804279 titled 'CHANNEL ORIENTED MODULATION SELECTION FOR IMPROVED SPECTRAL EFFICIENCY

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and apparatus for selecting the most efficient modulation technique for transmitting data over a channel.

  • The apparatus receives an activation indication to start the modulation selection procedure.
  • The apparatus also receives a set of Resource Elements (REs) that will be used for the modulation selection procedure.
  • The activation indication specifies that a first subset of REs should use a higher quality modulation technique, while a second subset of REs should use a lower quality modulation technique.
  • The apparatus then receives downlink communication based on the selected modulation techniques.

The innovation in this patent application is a method and apparatus that dynamically selects different modulation techniques for different subsets of REs, based on their quality. This allows for improved spectral efficiency, as higher quality modulation can be used for REs with better signal conditions, while lower quality modulation can be used for REs with poorer signal conditions.


Original Abstract Submitted

Method and apparatus for channel oriented modulation selection for improved spectral efficiency. The apparatus receives an activation indication indicating an activation of a modulation selection procedure and a set of REs used for the modulation selection procedure. The activation indication indicating a first modulation for a first subset of REs within the set of REs and a second modulation for a second subset of REs within the set of REs, the first subset of REs having a higher quality than the second subset of REs. The apparatus receives downlink communication based on the modulation selection procedure.
