  • Switching between new radio dual connectivity and carrier aggregation in cellular networks
    Patent number: 11864260
    Abstract: A telecommunication network associated with a wireless telecommunication provider can be configured to switch between New Radio (NR) Dual Connectivity (DC) and NR Carrier Aggregation (CA) in 5G cellular networks. According to examples, a UE is not limited to using a single mode (e.g., either NR CA or NR DC) that is initially selected for use by the UE. For example, a UE can be reconfigured during a session to switch from NR DC to NR CA when the UE moves toward mid-cell and/or a cell edge. In other examples, the UE can be reconfigured to switch from NR CA to NR DC when the UE moves closer to the cell. To determine when to switch, one or more network conditions (e.g., UE RF conditions) can be monitored. In some examples, a gNB can monitor power headroom reports (PHRs) received from the UE to determine when to switch.
