Samsung patents method to reduce signal interference in 5G and 6G networks

Patent drawing
Patent drawing from the official filing.

Samsung has been granted a patent for a method that helps mobile devices manage signal interference in 5G and 6G networks. The device receives specific instructions from the base station about how to handle signals from neighboring cells, allowing it to decode data more accurately while canceling out unwanted noise.

Why it mattersThis improves the reliability of high-speed wireless connections by helping phones better distinguish their own data from interference caused by nearby cell towers.

In the filing’s own words

The present disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting higher data transmission rates. An example method performed by a terminal in a communication system includes receiving, from a base station, configuration information on a rate matching pattern; receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) on a plurality of physical downlink control channels (PDCCHs); and performing rate matching according to the rate matching pattern corresponding to the plurality of PDSCHs based on the configuration information in a case that the plurality of PDSCHs is scheduled based on the DCI.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. A method performed by a terminal in a communication system, the method comprising: transmitting, to a base station, capability information on an interference cancellation; receiving, from the base station, configuration information on a rate matching pattern, the configuration information comprising first information on a cell specific reference signal (CRS) pattern of a serving cell and second information on a CRS pattern of at least one adjacent cell; receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) on a plurality of physical downlink control channels (PDCCHs); based on the first information, performing decoding of a plurality of PDSCHs rate matched by the base station in a case that the plurality of PDSCHs is scheduled based on the DCI; and based on the second information, performing the interference cancellation.
