UE Data Rate Decoding for Multi-Carrier Transport Blocks

The patent segments the decoding process by introducing separate data rate determination modules for each component carrier. Each repetition of the transport block is decoded independently with its own data rate calculation, rather than attempting to sum data rates across all repetitions simultaneously. This segmentation reduces the complexity of the overall decoding process while maintaining the ability to process multiple repetitions across multiple component carriers.

The patent applies local quality by determining data rates locally for each component carrier and each repetition individually, rather than applying a global data rate summation approach. Each transport block repetition is decoded with accuracy appropriate to its specific component carrier conditions, ensuring optimal decoding performance for each local instance while still achieving overall high data throughput across the aggregated multiple carriers.

The patent implements partial action by allowing the system to achieve complete data reception through selective processing of repetitions. Rather than requiring all repetitions to be fully processed, the system can achieve complete decoding by processing a sufficient subset of repetitions across multiple component carriers, thereby reducing the total computational effort and power consumption while still ensuring all information bits are successfully received and decoded.
