Application: Method and apparatus for adjusting initial values of outer-loop, and computer-readable storage medium (Patent ID: US20240073893A1)

The patent filed by ZTE Corp. discloses an outer loop initial value adjustment method for User Equipment (UEs) scheduled by a cell. The method involves acquiring feature information of the UEs, performing raster division to obtain rasters, determining an outer loop value within a target Block Error Rate (BLER) range for each raster, identifying a target raster for a specific UE, and setting the outer loop value of the target raster as the initial outer loop value of the target UE. The method utilizes mapping curves of Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) versus Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR) for different chip types, clustering chip types, and performing raster division based on chip type classification. Additionally, the method involves adjusting outer loop values based on scheduling feedback results to optimize performance.

The patent also includes claims for a method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium for adjusting initial outer loop values. The method involves acquiring feature information of UEs, performing raster division, determining outer loop values for rasters, identifying a target raster for a specific UE, and setting the outer loop value of the target raster as the initial outer loop value of the target UE. The apparatus includes a memory, processor, and computer program for executing the method, while the storage medium stores the executable instructions. The method further includes steps for adjusting outer loop values based on scheduling feedback results, calculating BLER, and re-executing raster division if BLER does not meet a preset value.
