Solution Overview

Problem

In wireless communication systems, the time varying characteristics and multipath fading of wireless channels can lead to data transmission failures, particularly due to transmission time differences between different frequency bands, causing delayed feedback transmission.

Innovation Solution

A method for determining resource positions in a base station, where a specified transmission time difference is acquired between a second band and a first band, and resource positions are determined based on this time difference and existing resource positions in both bands to ensure timely feedback data transmission.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the terminal transmits feedback data through the uplink resource position of the second band, then the base station can receive feedback data, but the transmission time difference causes the feedback data to be transmitted delayed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefeedback data transmission reliabilityVSAvoidfeedback data transmission delay
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The base station calculates and determines the second resource position in advance based on the first resource position and transmission time difference parameters, so that when the terminal needs to transmit feedback data, the resource position is already prepared and aligned, eliminating transmission delay

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent adjusts the resource position parameters by introducing a transmission time difference parameter between the first and second bands, and uses this parameter to recalculate and determine the second resource position, thereby synchronizing the feedback transmission timing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Ease of operation

If the terminal waits for the next uplink resource position to transmit feedback data, then the feedback data can be transmitted, but the transmission is delayed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefeedback transmission capabilityVSAvoidfeedback transmission delay
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The base station performs preliminary calculation of the second resource position based on the first resource position and transmission time difference, enabling the terminal to transmit feedback data immediately without waiting for the next available uplink resource position

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a resource position determination mechanism that acts as an intermediary between the first band downlink resource and the second band uplink resource, using the transmission time difference parameter to bridge the timing gap and enable timely feedback transmission

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
