  • Patent number: 11665686
    Abstract: Facilitating a time-division multiplexing pattern-based solution for a dual-subscriber identity module with a single radio in advanced networks (e.g., 5G, 6G, and beyond) is provided herein. Operations of a method can comprise obtaining, by a network device comprising a processor, multiple time-division multiplexing patterns applicable to a mobile device. The multiple time-division multiplexing patterns indicate respective repeating patterns of an on state and an off state of a defined identity of the mobile device. The method also can comprise facilitating, by the network device, a transmission, to the mobile device, of information indicative of the multiple time-division multiplexing patterns. In an example, the mobile device can be configured to operate with at least two subscriber identity modules.

  • Publication number: 20230143056
    Abstract: One subscriber identity module (SIM) can transmit data in active mode while another SIM is in an idle mode. However, paging for the SIM in idle mode can occur based on a discontinuous reception configuration (DRX) cycle of the active SIM. For example, when the DRX of the active SIM indicates that the active SIM is in an idle state, then the SIM that is currently in an idle state can send messages and vice versa. The DRX cycle information can be exchanged between a first core network and a second core network. Each core network can belong to the same or different mobile network operator and can have separate radio access networks (RAN) or share the RAN. The DRX cycle information and/or a time-division multiplexing (TDM) pattern can be exchanged over the air via a system information broadcast message.

  • Patent number: 11606248
    Abstract: In a 5G network, an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) deployment in a 5G network, can enable aggregation of multiple user equipment (UE) bearers into backhaul bearers based on factors such as route information of UE bearers and quality of service of UE bearers. Additionally, an adaptation layer can be configured to perform aggregation of data from UE bearers into backhaul bearers either above or below a radio link control layer. Thus, aggregation of data from UE bearers into backhaul bearers can be performed either above the RLC or below the RLC to take advantage of benefits from both options.

  • Publication number: 20230062978
    Abstract: A delay doppler domain transformation can be used to estimate characteristics of a channel between a base station and a user equipment or alternatively, between the user equipment and another user equipment. Thus, the velocity and the distance position of the user equipment can be calculated. For example, a signal received in the time-frequency domain, can be converted to the delay doppler domain by the base station. In response to the conversion, the base station can estimate the velocity of the user equipment. The velocity can be utilized by various applications. For example, the velocity can be utilized to alert the other user equipment to the location or an anticipated location of the user equipment.

  • Patent number: 11588923
    Abstract: Compression techniques can reduce the fronthaul throughput in split radio access network (RAN) architectures for next generation designs. Adaptive fixed-point mapping can reduce the throughput requirements between a baseband unit (DU) and a remote radio unit (RU). Thus, a bit or plurality of bits can indicate the type of data being passed over the fronthaul. Consequently, adaptive mapping between precoded downlink data and non-precoded downlink data suited to the type of data passed over the fronthaul can achieve high compression ratios.

  • Publication number: 20230012517
    Abstract: The described technology is generally directed towards operating a user equipment node as a scheduler user equipment (e.g., which can be a local manager of other nodes in a group). The scheduler user equipment receives a scheduling request for the scheduling of the resources for transmission of data by a transmitter user equipment, and based on the traffic type requested, schedules the transmitter user equipment and receiver user equipment(s) with scheduling data / allocated radio resources. The transmitter user equipment can directly transmit to the receiver user equipment(s) on the allocated radio resources, e.g., without further involvement of the scheduler user equipment / local manager. For cellular data, the scheduler user equipment can schedule the transmitter user equipment to transmit to the scheduler user equipment as a receiver node.

  • Patent number: 11558915
    Abstract: The same or similar physical signals can be used for both user equipment (UE) and an integrated access backhaul (IAB) node. Different configurations of resources and/or transmission periods of the signals can be used for initial access for access UEs and IAB nodes. In addition, since the UE functionality for IAB nodes is not fully identical with access UEs, the network can identify which UEs performing initial access are normal access UEs or are IAB nodes with UE functionality. Furthermore, the parameters for configuring radio resource management operation at the IAB node gNode B function can consider a half-duplex constraint imposed by the UE function and can also analyze hop order and other topology/route management functionalities.

  • Publication number: 20220408427
    Abstract: Disaggregated wireless radio access networks can utilize a lower physical split architecture with open fronthaul between the radio unit and distributed baseband units. A split architecture is one in which the analogue radio front-end and the digital baseband processor in a radio are not co-located. Instead, these components are connected via a fronthaul transport network. Therefore, the baseband unit can transmit two beamforming matrices for every contiguous resource block occupied by a user. The radio unit can then interpolate between these two beamforming matrices for each of the RE inside of the resource block based on the baseband unit and the radio unit agreeing upon a method of interpolation to generate beamforming matrices per resource element.

  • Publication number: 20220377846
    Abstract: Various embodiments disclosed herein provide for the provisioning of backhaul links over a 5G NR (New Radio) integrated access and backhaul (IAB) network for access nodes using non-5G radio access technologies. In this way, the IAB network can service devices that are connected to the core network via older 3GPP technologies, or even non-3GPP technologies such as Wi-Fi. An IAB mobile terminal can be provided at the end point access node to make the access node an IAB node. Using an existing internet protocol (IP) routing in the IAB network, or providing for an IP tunnel between the endpoint access node and the core network can then facilitate providing backhaul services for the non-5G access node.
