11611375 · 2023-03-21 · ·

A base station of a 5G/6G network can include its location coordinates in the SSB system information message which is broadcast on a standard frequency periodically. A mobile user device can receive the SSB and thereby determine the base station location. Thereafter, the user device can measure its own location, speed, and direction of travel, and thereby calculate a Doppler frequency correction before transmitting a message to the base station, thus causing the base station to receive the message at the expected standard frequency. In addition, the user device can calculate, based on the location of the base station relative to the direction of travel of the mobile user device, a particular frequency at which downlink messages from the base station will be received. In addition, the user device can pre-emptively adjust its transmission frequency when changing speed or direction, thereby avoiding wasteful frequency-correction messages from the base station.
