— 1 min read

The World Intellectual Property Organization has published a patent by HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD., titled "SIGNAL SENDING METHOD OF BASE STATION AND ENERGY-SAVING BASE STATION". This invention provides a novel approach to reducing energy consumption in base stations by dynamically adjusting the transmitting bandwidth of downlink reference symbols. The method involves setting an energy-saving mark, informing user equipment of the energy-saving mode, and using the energy-saving mode to send signals. The patent aims to reduce energy consumption while maintaining the key parameter of bandwidth.

Key Takeaways:

  • The patent provides a signal sending method for a base station that reduces energy consumption by dynamically changing the transmitting bandwidth of downlink reference symbols.
  • The method involves setting an energy-saving mark, informing user equipment of the energy-saving mode, and using the energy-saving mode to send signals.
  • The energy-saving mark includes reference symbol energy-saving indication, data transmission bandwidth indication, or indication of reducing antenna transmitting.
  • The energy-saving base station allows for the dynamical change of transmitting bandwidth of downlink reference symbols based on cell load.
  • The patent was filed on January 6, 2011, under Application No. PCT/CN2011/070059.
  • HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. is the applicant and owner of the patent.
