User equipment capability discovery in distributed wireless networks

摘要

Advertising wireless devices (e.g., user equipments (UEs)) within a distributed wireless network may indicate radio frequency and/or baseband capabilities (e.g., via transmitting capabilities messages). A responding UE may receive one or more capabilities messages, and identify radio frequency (RF) capabilities (e.g., indicated via a bitmap) and/or baseband capabilities of the advertising UEs. The responding UE may then determine a transmission scheduling policy based on the one or more received capabilities messages. For example, the responding UE may generate a combined list of frequencies based on the one or more received capabilities messages, and distribute transmissions over the list of frequencies. Additionally or alternatively, the responding UE may determine block decoding baseband capabilities of the one or more advertising UEs, and may accordingly enable block coding schemes for transmissions on frequencies supported by the advertising UEs with such block decoding baseband capabilities.
