Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If flight path and measurement information reporting methods are not established for aerial terminals, then existing wireless communication systems can operate with standard procedures, but mobility management and signal coverage for aerial terminals cannot be optimized
Solution Approach 1:
The reporting method is segmented into distinct information types (flight path information, measurement information, capability information) that are reported separately through structured messages. This allows the system to handle complex aerial terminal mobility management by breaking down the overall reporting process into manageable, standardized components that can be processed independently.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent establishes a universal reporting framework that can handle multiple types of information (capability reporting, flight path reporting, measurement reporting) using a common message structure and procedure. This multi-functional approach enables the same reporting mechanism to serve different purposes in aerial terminal mobility management, reducing overall system complexity.
2Productivity
If detailed flight path and measurement information is reported, then handover processes can be optimized for aerial terminals, but signaling overhead and processing complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential flight path and measurement information needed for handover optimization from the complete set of possible terminal data. By selecting and reporting only relevant parameters (such as key measurement results and critical flight path points), the system achieves handover optimization while minimizing signaling overhead.
Solution Approach 2:
The reporting mechanism implements partial action by transmitting flight path and measurement information only when specific conditions are met or when changes occur above certain thresholds. This selective reporting provides sufficient information for handover optimization without continuously transmitting all possible data, thereby reducing signaling overhead.

AI summary
The present disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate than a 4G communication system such as LTE. The present disclosure relates to a method for a report on flight path and measurement information of an aerial UE in a wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of: transmitting, to a base station, an RRC message including flight path information; on the basis of the RRC message, transmitting, to the base station, UE capability information related to a report function of the flight path information; on the basis of the UE capability information, receiving, from the base station, a report request message of the flight path information; and transmitting, to the base station, a response message to the report request message of the flight path information.
