Patent number: 12363575Abstract: Solutions for dynamically toggling physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) interleaving include: a base station receiving radio measurement reports from a user equipment (UE); based on at least the radio measurement reports, determining that radio reception by the UE meets a threshold; based on at least meeting the threshold, ceasing to interleave data on the PDCCH. The base station continues to monitor radio measurement reports from the UE, and based on at least the radio measurement reports indicating that radio reception by the UE meets a second threshold, resuming interleaving data transmitted on the PDCCH. In some examples, UEs are managed in broadcast groups (e.g., UEs within a common in a cell sector), and interleaving or ceasing interleaving is based on a determination of whether all UEs in the broadcast group are able to forego interleaving.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2022Date of Patent: July 15, 2025Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.Inventor: Muhammad Tawhidur Rahman

Patent number: 12363722Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates in first and second search space (SS) sets may be located in a same slot. When both SS sets have the same periodicity and the same offset, the UE may determine that SS sets are linked. The UE may expect the same number of monitoring occasions for each SS set within the slot, and may determine that a monitoring occasion in the first SS set having a first index value is linked with a monitoring occasion in the second SS set that has the same index value. The UE may determine that monitoring occasions for the different SS sets that have the same periodicity but different offsets are located in different slots, and that rules are satisfied such that a first PDCCH repetition is located in an earlier slot than the second PDDCH repetition.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2022Date of Patent: July 15, 2025Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Mostafa Khoshnevisan, Jing Sun, Xiaoxia Zhang, Tao Luo
