Wireless Communication SCell Activation Delay Reduction

The patent applies preliminary action by performing AGC setting and timing tracking based on SSB before the SCell is formally activated. The UE prepares the SCell in advance by adjusting gain and tracking timing using SSB signals, so that when activation occurs, these parameters are already optimized. This reduces the interruption duration during actual activation while maintaining synchronization accuracy.

The patent introduces dynamic adjustment of AGC and timing tracking parameters during the SCell activation process. Instead of relying solely on the static, long-cycle SSB, the system dynamically adjusts gain and timing based on real-time measurements and conditions, allowing faster convergence and reduced interruption while maintaining accuracy.

The patent performs AGC setting and timing tracking in advance before formal SCell activation. The UE uses SSB signals to pre-adjust gain and timing parameters, ensuring that when activation occurs, the processing is already accurate. This separates the preparation phase from the activation phase, allowing fast activation without sacrificing precision.

The patent maintains continuous useful action by keeping the SCell in a prepared state where AGC and timing tracking are continuously refined using SSB signals. This continuous preparation ensures that when activation is triggered, the transition is rapid yet accurate, as the system has been continuously optimizing parameters leading up to activation.
