Artificial-Intelligence Error Mitigation in 5G/6G Messaging
Artificial intelligence procedures are disclosed for localizing faults in corrupted messages in 5G and 6G, and for correcting those faults based on measured parameters such as backgrounds and message signals according to pulse-amplitude modulation. An AI model with multiple adjustable variables may be “trained” using a large number of message events, including faulted messages, to determine which message elements are likely faulted, based on input parameters such as modulation quality, SNR, and other signal properties. The receiving entity can then attempt a grid search to correct the faulted message elements, or request a retransmission. For field use by base stations and user devices, an algorithm may be developed based on the AI model, and configured to predict which message elements are likely faulted. By detecting and correcting message faults, networks may increase reliability and reduce latency while avoiding most retransmission costs and delays, according to some embodiments.
User-equipment-coordination-set control aggregation
This document describes methods, devices, systems, and means for user-equipment-coordination-set (404) control aggregation that facilitates more efficient control-plane signaling in comparison to conventional wireless communication systems. Overhead for control-plane signaling is reduced by communicating reports and control commands for the multiple user equipments (110) in the user-equipment-coordination-set (404) in a single message instead of communicating a single control message for each user equipment (110). Additionally, the user-equipment-coordination-set (404) uses joint-reception and joint-transmission, to increase the reliability of communicating reports and control commands, especially in the case of challenging radio communication conditions between a base station (121) and an individual UE (110) located near the edge of a cell provided by the vase station.
MEASUREMENT APPARATUS AND MEASUREMENT METHOD
An EVM measurement value is appropriately determined while CPE/ICI correction is taken into account. In a measurement apparatus (300), an EVM measurer (305) measures a modulation quality of a signal transmitted from a transmission apparatus. An EVM determiner (306) determines whether or not the measurement value of the modulation quality is equal to or less than a first requirement value, in a case where correction relating to a phase noise of the transmission apparatus is necessary in a reception apparatus. The first requirement value herein is higher than a second requirement value used in the determination of the measurement value in a case where the correction relating to the phase noise of the transmission apparatus is unnecessary in the reception apparatus.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND OPERATING METHOD TO COMPENSATE FOR IN-PHASE/QUADRATURE IMBALANCE
An electronic device includes a feedback oscillator configured to output a first oscillation signal and a second oscillation signal, the second oscillation signal having a defined phase difference from the first oscillation signal, the feedback oscillator including a phase shifter configured to receive the first oscillation signal and output the second oscillation signal, an up-conversion mixer configured to output a first loopback signal obtained by mixing the first oscillation signal with a reference tone signal, and output a second loopback signal obtained by mixing the second oscillation signal with the reference tone signal, and a receiver configured to generate a first reference IQ signal from the first loopback signal, generate a second reference IQ signal from the second loopback signal, and compare an actual phase difference between the first reference IQ signal and the second reference IQ signal with the defined phase difference.
Channel tracking method and module
A channel response generating module and method for generating a channel response based on a ratio of a channel response corresponding to an image signal frequency bin in relation to a channel response corresponding to a traffic signal frequency bin, or a channel response corresponding to a first frequency bin in relation to a channel response corresponding to a second frequency bin, and a zero-IF signal transmitter employing the channel response generating module and method to efficiently suppress image signals or compensate traffic signals during transmission of IQ RF signals.
Enhanced fault correction and noise avoidance in 5G/6G networking
Disclosed are methods for avoiding, detecting, and mitigating message faults. Due to the expected large increase in electromagnetic background energy in in dense 5G and 6G networks, message faults are likely to dramatically increase, along with their costs. To avoid intermittent interference, a user device can monitor the noise level and request that the base station store incoming messages while the noise level is too high. Likewise, if a user device receives a faulted message while the noise level is high, the user device can delay the retransmission until the noise subsides. If the user device has received two faulted messages (a likely scenario in crowded urban/industrial/sporting environments), the user device can merge the two versions while selecting the message elements with the best quality (based on modulation, SNR, stability, and other criteria) and may thereby obtain a corrected message version, without resorting to a third transmission of the message.
Setting baseband gain for signals below noise
Methods and devices are disclosed that derive an IQ magnitude parameter, and then determine the optimum IQ magnitude for wanted signals with negative signal to noise values. For each device installation, a calibration routine may be carried out that sets the baseband gain to produce this optimum IQ magnitude for each frequency channel.
Methods, decoder and encoder for handling a data stream for transmission between a remote unit and a base unit of a base station system
A method performed by an encoder of a base station system, for handling a data stream for transmission over a transmission connection between a remote unit and a base unit of the base station system, the remote unit being arranged to transmit wireless signals to, and receive from, mobile stations. The method comprises quantizing a plurality of IQ samples, converting the quantized plurality of IQ samples to IQ predictions, calculating per sample a difference between the quantized plurality of IQ samples and the IQ predictions in order to create IQ prediction errors. The method further comprises quantizing the IQ predictions or the IQ prediction errors, entropy encoding the IQ prediction errors and sending the entropy encoded IQ prediction errors over the transmission connection to a decoder of the base station system. The method can be performed by a decoder.
PHASE NOISE COMPENSATION BASED ON BASE STATION CAPABILITY
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a base station, a capability message indicating a capability supporting network-side phase noise compensation. The UE may transmit, to the base station, phase tracking reference signals based on transmitting the capability message. In an example, the phase tracking reference signals may include a UE phase noise component which may be associated with a local oscillator of the UE. The UE may receive, from the base station, a compensated downlink transmission that is compensated based on the UE phase noise component. In generating the compensated downlink transmission, the base station may apply a multiplication factor associated with the estimated UE phase noise component to the compensated downlink transmission.
MEMS GYROSCOPE SELF-TEST USING A TECHNIQUE FOR DEFLECTION OF THE SENSING MOBILE MASS
A microelectromechanical system (MEMS) gyroscope sensor has a sensing mass and a quadrature error compensation control loop for applying a force to the sensing mass to cancel quadrature error. To detect fault, the quadrature error compensation control loop is opened and an additional force is applied to produce a physical displacement of the sensing mass. A quadrature error resulting from the physical displacement of the sensing mass in response to the applied additional force is sensed. The sensed quadrature error is compared to an expected value corresponding to the applied additional force and a fault alert is generated if the comparison is not satisfied.
