  • Patent number: 11432161
    Abstract: The disclosed technology is directed towards dynamic spread spectrum (DSS) deployments, in which two cells such as an LTE cell and a new radio (NR) cell share available physical resource blocks during a given transmission time interval. The LTE cell and NR cell determine priority values for their user equipments to be scheduled, and both cells provide requested scheduling information including the priority values and requested resource blocks for user equipments in the upcoming transmission time interval. Based on the priority values, a real-time joint scheduler processes the combined scheduling information from both cells to determine how many physical resource blocks of the total available to allocate to the LTE cell and how many to allocate to the NR cell for the next transmission time interval. To avoid collisions, the LTE cell and NR cell modify their respective UE schedules based on their respective number of allocated physical resource blocks.

  • Patent number: 11412505
    Abstract: Aspects provide for autonomous adjustment of the uplink and downlink transmission timing in wireless communication networks. A scheduled entity (e.g., a user equipment (UE) or child integrated access backhaul (IAB) node) may observe a change in the downlink reception timing of downlink signals transmitted from a scheduling entity (e.g., a base station or parent IAB node). The scheduled entity may then autonomously adjust its uplink transmission timing to compensate for the change in downlink reception timing. In addition, the scheduled entity may further maintain the same downlink transmission timing irrespective of the change in downlink reception timing.
