CONFIGURABILITY AND SIGNALING FOR HALF-TONE SHIFT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18211661 titled 'CONFIGURABILITY AND SIGNALING FOR HALF-TONE SHIFT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an apparatus used by a User Equipment (UE) to communicate with an Evolved Node-B (eNB) on a wireless network.

  • The apparatus consists of three circuitries: first, second, and third.
  • The first circuitry processes a configuration transmission that carries a half-tone shifting indicator.
  • The second circuitry selects one or more subcarrier frequencies for Uplink (UL) transmission based on the half-tone shifting indicator.
  • The third circuitry generates a UL transmission for the selected subcarrier frequencies.
  • The half-tone shifting indicator can have two values: one indicating the application of a half-subcarrier offset, and the other indicating no application of the offset.


Original Abstract Submitted

Described is an apparatus of a User Equipment (UE) operable to communicate with an Evolved Node-B (eNB) on a wireless network. The apparatus may comprise a first circuitry, a second circuitry, and a third circuitry. The first circuitry may be operable to process a configuration transmission carrying a half-tone shifting indicator. The second circuitry may be operable to select one or more subcarrier frequencies for Uplink (UL) transmission based on the half-tone shifting indicator. The third circuitry may be operable to generate a UL transmission for the one or more subcarrier frequencies. The half-tone shifting indicator may have a first value indicating application of a half-subcarrier offset, and a second value indicating no application of the half-subcarrier offset.
