Ericsson’s patent involves a method in a communication network where network nodes receive and decode messages from multiple user equipment (UE). Using a backhaul link, decoded messages are transmitted to decode other messages, optimizing data rate based on UE buffer size. The method utilizes NOMA or OMA schemes.

Decoding messages in communication network based on buffer size
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11929947B2) outlines a method in a communication network where a first network node receives a combined signal containing messages from multiple user equipment (UE) devices. The first network node decodes the messages and transmits the decoded information to a second network node via a backhaul link. The second network node then uses this decoded information to further decode messages from other UEs in the combined signal. The method involves choosing between non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and orthogonal multiple access (OMA) schemes based on the data rate associated with the buffer size of the UEs involved, optimizing the network's efficiency based on channel gain information and data rates.
Furthermore, the patent details the use of successive interference cancellation (SIC) based receivers, obtaining channel gain information, and determining maximum achievable rates for UEs to enhance the network's performance. The method also involves the removal of decoded messages from combined signals to isolate and decode other messages efficiently. The patent also covers scenarios where the first network node decodes messages from the combined signal and transmits them to the second network node for further processing, showcasing a comprehensive approach to managing communication in a network efficiently while considering various factors like channel gain, data rates, and buffer sizes of UEs involved in the communication process.
