METHOD TO DETERMINE THE CAPABILITY OF SIMULTANEOUS OPERATION IN IAB NODES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18026153 titled 'METHOD TO DETERMINE THE CAPABILITY OF SIMULTANEOUS OPERATION IN IAB NODES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method and network node that have integrated access and backhaul (IAB) functionality.
- The network node determines information about impairments caused by signals from different IAB nodes.
- Based on this information, the network node selects a multiplexing capability.
- The network node then multiplexes signals for the different IAB nodes using the selected multiplexing capability.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method and network node having integrated access and backhaul (IAB) functionality are disclosed. According to one aspect, a network node determines information concerning at least one of: (i) an impairment of a first signal from a first integrated access backhaul node that is caused by a second signal from a second IAB node and (ii) an impairment of the second signal that is caused by the first signal. The network node further selects a multiplexing capability for the network node based at least in part on the determined information concerning at least one of the impairments and further multiplexes signals for the first and second IAB nodes using the selected multiplexing capability.
