Patent number: 11895649Abstract: The present application relates to a method and device for duplex coordination in a relay network. A second node device sends configuration information to a first node device, so that the first node device, according to the configuration information, receives on a first time domain resource a first message sent by the second node device and sends a second message to a third node device on a second time domain resource. The second node device is a parent node of the first node device, and the third node device is a child node of the first node device. The configuration information includes first and second configuration information which indicates the first and time domain resources, respectively. The first and the second time domain resources partially or completely overlap, and a priority of the first message is higher than a priority of the second message.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2022Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: GUANGDONG OPPO MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATIONS CORP., LTD.Inventor: Hai Tang

Patent number: 11895623Abstract: In one aspect, resource selection may be performed where single frequency full-duplex (SFFD) UEs are present in a V2X system. Signaling and procedures may enable the coexistence of half-duplex (HD) and SFFD-capable UEs. Based on the resource reservation information obtained from other UEs, the SFFD UE may determine which among the reserved time-frequency resources is amenable for performing the SFFD operation. In one aspect, the time-frequency resources chosen for SFFD may partially or fully overlap with the reserved time-frequency resources, based on the self-interference cancellation capability of the SFFD UE, the RSRP, and/or the RSSI on the reserved time-frequency resources. Accordingly, the full-duplex capability of an SFFD-capable UE may be leveraged, and spectral efficiency improved.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2020Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Anantharaman Balasubramanian, Kapil Gulati, Shuanshuan Wu, Navid Abedini
