Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional channel coding schemes for passive IoT devices increase hardware complexity and power consumption while failing to ensure simplified implementation and transmission reliability.

Innovation Solution

Perform error correction coding on an information bit sequence to obtain a first coded bit sequence, and repeatedly expand it to obtain a second coded bit sequence, which is then sent to the receiving end, allowing for simplified processing and reduced power consumption.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional channel coding schemes (sub-block interleaving, bit collection, bit selection) are used to reduce performance loss caused by sudden interference, then the resistance to sudden fading and interference is improved, but the hardware complexity increases and power consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresistance to sudden fading and interferenceVSAvoidhardware complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The coded bit sequence is divided into multiple segments through repeated expansion operations. Each segment is a copy of the original coded sequence, allowing the receiving end to process segments independently and select the best one, thereby improving reliability without requiring complex interleaving or selection modules at the transmitter

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses repeated copying of the coded bit sequence to create multiple identical segments. This simple copying mechanism replaces complex coding schemes like sub-block interleaving and bit collection, achieving interference resistance through redundancy rather than complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Reliability

If conventional channel coding schemes (sub-block interleaving, bit collection, bit selection) are used to reduce performance loss caused by sudden interference, then the resistance to sudden fading and interference is improved, but the power consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresistance to sudden fading and interferenceVSAvoidpower consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The transmitting end simply copies the coded bit sequence multiple times without requiring complex processing operations. This copying approach consumes minimal power compared to conventional schemes that require active manipulation of bits through interleaving and selection operations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The repeated expansion structure provides inherent redundancy that automatically protects against interference without requiring additional power-consuming error correction operations at the transmitter. The receiving end benefits from this pre-prepared redundancy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Reliability

If conventional channel coding schemes are used, then the resistance to sudden fading and interference is improved, but simplified implementation for tap devices of passive IoT is not achieved

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresistance to sudden fading and interferenceVSAvoidsimplified implementation
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The coded sequence is segmented into repeated blocks, creating a structure that is inherently simple to implement. Tap devices can easily process this segmented structure without requiring complex decoding algorithms, making it suitable for passive IoT applications

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the structural parameter of the coded sequence by repeating it multiple times, transforming a complex coding problem into a simple structural modification that is easy to implement while maintaining reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
