Application: Prohibitions related to global navigation satellite system (GNSS) acquisition and reporting for reduced capability devices (Patent ID: US20240103180A1)
The patent filed by InterDigital Inc. describes a system where a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) can receive prohibition conditions to restrict Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) activities like acquisition, reporting, or assistance information. The WTRU's processor can identify triggers related to GNSS activities, determine if prohibition conditions are active based on timers or WTRU characteristics, and perform GNSS activities only when the prohibition conditions are overridden or terminated. The system allows for monitoring trigger conditions, delaying GNSS activities, and controlling data transmission based on the prohibition conditions.
The WTRU can also be configured to perform GNSS activities when the prohibition conditions are inactive, based on various WTRU characteristics like location change or speed. The method includes responding to triggering events, explicit override requests, or timer expirations to determine when to enable GNSS activities. Additionally, the system can report GNSS information through different protocols based on the type of data and can stop data transmission to focus on receiving GNSS information. The patent covers applications in Internet of Things (IoT) devices and reduced capability (RedCap) devices, providing a versatile solution for managing GNSS activities efficiently.
