Patent number: 12022517Abstract: A data sending method includes: receiving, by a terminal device, configuration information sent by a network device, where the configuration information is used to configure a non-scheduling resource; and starting, by the terminal device when a condition is met, a first timer, where the non-scheduling resource is not used for sending uplink data within duration of the first timer. According to the method, a timer is set on the terminal device, and the timer is used to instruct the terminal device whether to send data on a non-scheduling resource. Therefore, a data sending success rate and a communication latency of the terminal device can be effectively balanced.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2019Date of Patent: June 25, 2024Assignee: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.Inventors: Xiaoying Xu, Qufang Huang, Qinghai Zeng

Patent number: 12016047Abstract: The technology described herein improves communication quality and device efficiency by selecting an access technology for use in a communication session between a user equipment (UE) and a communication network. The access technologies may be selected by a network node (e.g., eNodeB) based on a geographic location of the UE within a service area. In some geographic areas, the 5G leg may perform below a threshold quality measure, while the LTE leg performs well. In these situations, maintaining a communication session with only the LTE leg may yield a better overall performance (e.g., data throughput) than using the combination of a 5G leg and an LTE leg. The first step of the selection process is identifying geographic areas with below threshold 5G performance. Once the geographic subunits are designated as high or low performing, the designations are used to determine whether LTE and 5G should be used in combination.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2021Date of Patent: June 18, 2024Assignee: T-Mobile Innovations LLCInventors: Roopesh Kumar Polaganga, Deepak Nadh Tammana

Patent number: 12016021Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit an indication of a downlink beam in uplink control information of a random access message, wherein the downlink beam is different from a default beam corresponding to a preamble of the random access message and a random access occasion in which the random access message is transmitted, or wherein the downlink beam is selected from a set of multiple downlink beams corresponding to the random access occasion. The UE may monitor for at least one of a random access response or a downlink communication subsequent to the random access response using the downlink beam indicated in the uplink control information. Numerous other aspects are provided.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2020Date of Patent: June 18, 2024Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Yisheng Xue, Xiaoxia Zhang, Sony Akkarakaran, Ozcan Ozturk, Jing Sun, Tao Luo, Linhai He

Patent number: 12015995Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for selecting and indicating a quasi colocation (QCL) source signal for sidelink (SL) communications. For example, a scheduling node may select from multiple candidates a signal for a first user equipment (UE) to use as a spatial QCL source for a receive (RX) or transmit (TX) beam to use for communicating with a second UE on a SL interface. The scheduling node may then signal the first UE an indication of the selection of the signal.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2020Date of Patent: June 18, 2024Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Sony Akkarakaran, Tao Luo, Ling Ding, Junyi Li, Jung Ho Ryu, Jelena Damnjanovic, Mahmoud Taherzadeh Boroujeni

Patent number: 11991100Abstract: The available transmission resources on a downlink-shared channel are divided into resource blocks, each resource block comprising a predetermined number of sub-carriers during a predetermined time period. The resource blocks are subdivided into localized resource blocks and distributed resource blocks. A user requiring sufficient resources can be allocated a plurality of said localized resource blocks. A user who would require only a small number of said localized resource blocks can instead be allocated subunits of a plurality of said distributed resource blocks.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2021Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)Inventors: Stefan Parkvall, Lei Wan, Erik Dahlman

Patent number: 11985696Abstract: The present specification relates to an apparatus and method for performing random access. This specification discloses a method for performing random access by a terminal in a non-terrestrial network system, the method comprising the steps of: performing a search for a cell of a non-terrestrial network on the basis of a synchronization signal block transmitted from a non-terrestrial network node; after the search for the cell is completed, receiving, from the non-terrestrial network node, random access-related information about the cell of the non-terrestrial network; generating a random access preamble on the basis of a frequency resource area of a random access channel related to the cell of the non-terrestrial network; and transmitting the generated random access preamble to the non-terrestrial network node. Performance degradation can be reduced when random access is performed in a non-terrestrial network system.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2021Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: UUCOM CO., LTDInventor: Su Han Choi
