CONCURRENT MEASUREMENT GAPS FOR MULTIPLE RADIO ACCESS TECHNOLOGIES (RATS) - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18134491 Titled 'CONCURRENT MEASUREMENT GAPS FOR MULTIPLE RADIO ACCESS TECHNOLOGIES (RATS)'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a technology that allows devices to perform measurements on reference signals using concurrent measurement gaps. The device can support concurrent measurement gaps for measurements within the same radio access technology (intra-RAT) and can inform the network if it also supports concurrent measurement gaps for measurements between different radio access technologies (inter-RAT). Based on this information, the network can configure the device's measurement gap patterns and measurement objects for intra-RAT and inter-RAT measurements.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to perform measurements on reference signals based on concurrent measurement gaps. In an example, a device supports concurrent measurement gaps for intra-RAT measurements. The device can also indicate to a network whether it supports concurrent measurement gaps for inter-RAT measurements. Based on this indication, the network can configure measurement gap patterns and measurement objects for the UE to perform intra-RAT measurements and, as applicable, inter-RAT measurements.
