Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The deployment of 5G communication base stations requires significant manpower and material resources, with low efficiency and a reliance on on-site configuration, limiting the ability for remote and batch operations.
Innovation Solution
A method and device for station deployment that uses a station deployment file package transmitted over a communication link to configure and deploy 5G communication devices without on-site personnel, utilizing existing 4G OMCs to establish necessary links and software configurations, allowing for remote and batch deployment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If traditional on-site configuration method is used for 5G base station deployment, then deployment can be performed with basic factory software, but significant manpower and material resources are required with low efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a 4G base station as a proxy to perform station deployment operations on a 5G base station. The 4G base station copies the deployment actions (file transmission, software installation, configuration) that would normally be performed on-site by personnel, thereby eliminating the need for manual intervention while maintaining deployment capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The 4G base station acts as an intermediary between the operation maintenance center and the 5G base station. It receives deployment instructions and file packages from the OMC, then transmits these to the 5G base station through device-to-device communication, enabling remote deployment without requiring on-site personnel.
2Ease of operation
If remote operation is implemented for base station deployment, then manpower costs are reduced, but existing solutions require complex pre-configuration of network links and factory-set data
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of requiring complex pre-configuration of the 5G base station with factory-set data and BOOTP/DHCP services, the patent copies the necessary deployment operations from the 4G base station. The 4G base station performs the same file transmission and software installation actions remotely, simplifying the system setup while maintaining remote operation capability.
3Ease of manufacture
If 5G base station is equipped with complete service software at factory, then deployment is simplified, but manufacturing cost and device complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary actions by having the 4G base station transmit necessary file packages and software to the 5G base station before the 5G station needs to operate independently. This preliminary deployment action is performed remotely through device-to-device communication, simplifying manufacturing while enabling future independent operation of the 5G base station.
