  • Publication number: 20220030567
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are described for a User Equipment (UE) with reduced processing capabilities (e.g., Machine Type Communication (MTC) UE) to transmit and receive signaling are provided. The Downlink Control Information (DCI) formats scheduling a transmission of a Physical Uplink Shared CHannel (PUSCH) or a reception of a Physical Downlink Shared CHannel (PDSCH) are designed and have a smaller size than respective DCI formats for conventional UEs. DCI formats scheduling PUSCHs to or PDSCHs for a group of MTC UEs are also designed and can have a same size as DCI formats scheduling PUSCH or PDSCH for an individual MTC UE.

  • Patent number: 11206101
    Abstract: Disclosed in one embodiment is a downlink control channel decoding method of a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of: receiving setting information on a first resource and a second resource; blind-decoding reception signals on PDCCH resource candidates within the first resource determined by the setting information, so as to search for a PDCCH of the first resource; and blind-decoding reception signals on PDCCH resource candidates within the second resource determined by the setting information, and by blind-decoding, among the resource candidates, the remaining one or more resource candidates excluding one or more resource candidates, which include a resource area overlapping with the PDCCH having been searched for, so as to search for a PDCCH of the second resource. Therefore, since the number of PDCCH resource candidates required for blind-decoding is adjusted on the basis of an overlapping resource area, power consumption of a terminal can be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20210375272
    Abstract: Described herein is a system for responding to a frustrated user with a response determined based on spoken language understanding (SLU) processing of a user input. The system detects user frustration and responds to a repeated user input by confirming an action to be performed or presenting an alternative action, instead of performing the action responsive to the user input. The system also detects poor audio quality of the captured user input, and responds by requesting the user to repeat the user input. The system processes sentiment data and signal quality data to respond to user inputs.

  • Patent number: 11153876
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a technique for radio link monitoring in a wireless communication system, and to operation procedures of the base station and user equipment and a method for radio link quality evaluation on the basis of the technique. In the method, the user equipment divides the downlink channel bandwidth into multiple frequency ranges, measures channel states for each frequency range, and evaluates the radio link quality based on channel state measurement results. Thereafter, the user equipment sends frequency range quality information to the base station, which may then utilize the same for downlink resource allocation. Hence, it is possible to solve the problem of the existing scheme wherein the user equipment enters the physical layer problem detection state or the radio link failure state although a frequency range usable for service provisioning is present within the downlink channel bandwidth.
