Solution Overview

Problem

Existing 5GC network technologies do not effectively notify the travel direction of an object inquired by a UE (terminal) within the network.

Innovation Solution

A system and terminal configuration in a 5GC network that processes acquisition requests for travel direction information of detection target objects, transmitting sensing information including travel direction data based on the request.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If 5GC network uses conventional sensing technologies, then position information can be obtained, but travel direction information cannot be effectively notified to UE

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetravel direction informationVSAvoidinformation notification reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments position information and travel direction information into separate data elements. The sensing result includes both position coordinates and travel direction components, allowing independent extraction and notification of travel direction information to UE, thereby preventing information loss without compromising overall system reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary processing mechanism in the 5GC network that receives sensing results, extracts travel direction information, and notifies UE. This intermediary layer ensures reliable transmission of travel direction information that conventional technologies fail to deliver

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of information

If 5GC network implements travel direction notification, then information completeness improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetravel direction informationVSAvoidnetwork system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a universal sensing result structure that simultaneously provides position information and travel direction information through a standardized interface. This multi-functional approach allows the same system component to serve multiple purposes (positioning and direction sensing) without proportionally increasing complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter structure of sensing results by adding travel direction components to existing position information frameworks. This parameter extension allows travel direction notification using enhanced but fundamentally similar system architecture, minimizing complexity increase

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
