MUMBAI, India, Aug. 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202647095335 A) filed by Google LLC on August 06, 2026, for Methods And Devices For Feeder Link Unavailability Management.

Inventor includes Liao, Ching-Yu.

The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.

Abstract: Methods and devices embody feeder link unavailability (FLU) management techniques. Before the FLU starts, a network entity (162) transmits (404) FLU assistance information to the UE (102) via a node (104) on a satellite. The FLU assistance information includes FLU timing information and indicates whether the satellite reconnects with the same network entity after the FLU. The radio access network's potential signaling congestion before and after the FLU may be avoided by applying random delays (511) within a maximum time offset received (508) from the network entity, to the FLU-related signaling.
