Solution Overview

Problem

Existing relay technologies are inadequate in managing interference and optimizing transmission in multi-hop cooperation transmission scenarios, where multiple source nodes transmit signals to multiple destination nodes, as they primarily focus on diversity and multiplexing gains without effective interference neutralization.

Innovation Solution

A method involving source, relay, and destination nodes that divide and encode transmission messages using Gaussian random codebooks, determining transmission directions based on channel gains to optimize data stream transmission and relay signal extraction, thereby neutralizing interference through polynomial-based transmission direction determination and inverse matrix processing.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If relay nodes simply forward received signals without processing, then device complexity is reduced, but interference management capability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverelay node processing complexityVSAvoidinterference management capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The relay node performs preliminary processing by extracting relay signals from received data streams before forwarding them to destination nodes. This preliminary action enables the relay to prepare signals for subsequent interference neutralization at the destination, resolving the contradiction by adding necessary processing while maintaining system reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The relay node acts as an intermediary that receives data streams from source nodes, extracts specific relay signals, and forwards them to destination nodes. This intermediary role allows the system to manage interference effectively while keeping individual node complexity manageable

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Device complexity

If transmission directions are fixed, then device complexity is reduced, but adaptability to channel variations deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission control complexityVSAvoidchannel gain adaptation
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically determines transmission directions based on channel gains between nodes. By making transmission directions adaptive rather than fixed, the system can respond to channel variations while maintaining manageable complexity through polynomial-based determination methods

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Device complexity

If interference is not neutralized, then processing complexity is reduced, but signal quality at destination deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The system converts harmful interference into beneficial information by using polynomial functions of channel gains to determine transmission directions. This approach neutralizes interference at the destination while maintaining reasonable processing complexity through structured mathematical relationships

Inventive Principle:
Principle #22Blessing in disguise (Convert harm into benefit)

AI summary

A method for controlling a first node transmitting a transmission message to a plurality of second nodes may be provided. The method includes dividing the transmission message into at least one sub-message, encoding the at least one sub-message to a data stream, determining a first transmission direction of the data stream toward at least one of the plurality of second nodes, based on a polynomial of a channel gain between the first node and the at least one of the plurality of second nodes, and transmitting the data stream to the at least one of the plurality of second nodes, based on the determined first transmission direction.
