1Productivity

If multiple carriers are aggregated for inter-device communication, then data rate is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata rateVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the communication task by dividing carriers into first carriers and second carriers with distinct purposes. First carriers are used for initial access and synchronization, while second carriers are used for data transmission. This segmentation allows the device to handle multiple carriers without processing all carriers for all functions, thereby improving data rate while controlling complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts specific functions from the multi-carrier system by designating certain carriers (first carriers) for specific purposes (initial access, synchronization) and separating them from data transmission carriers (second carriers). This extraction allows the device to focus processing resources on critical functions while maintaining high data rates on dedicated data carriers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

If multiple carriers are aggregated for inter-device communication, then resource utilization is improved, but information alignment complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource utilizationVSAvoidinformation alignment complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by configuring different information parameters for different carrier types. First carriers have specific synchronization and access information, while second carriers have data transmission information. Each carrier type has locally optimized information characteristics suited to its function, improving overall resource utilization while managing alignment complexity through functional differentiation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates equipotentiality by ensuring that critical information (such as synchronization signals and system information) is available across all carriers at the same operational level. This allows the device to efficiently access necessary information regardless of which carrier is being used, improving resource utilization while maintaining manageable information alignment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #12Equipotentiality

AI summary

A method by which a first device (100) operates in a wireless communication system is presented. The method may comprise the steps of: acquiring information about aggregated carrier waves; and performing inter-device transmission for a second device by using the aggregated carrier waves, wherein the aggregated carrier waves include a first carrier wave and a second carrier wave, and it could be expected that first information about a symbol that can be used for inter-device communication included in the first carrier wave is configured to be the same as second information about a symbol that can be used for inter-device communication included in the second carrier wave.
