Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current data transmission strategies in wireless communication systems fail to optimize battery life by separately transmitting delay tolerant and delay critical data, leading to excessive battery power consumption due to multiple radio setups and power save states.
Innovation Solution
A processor-classified system that synchronizes the transmission of delay tolerant data with delay critical data, allowing for parallel or sequential transmission to minimize radio setups and maximize power save states, thereby reducing battery power usage.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If delay tolerant data and delay critical data are transmitted separately, then data transmission reliability is improved, but battery power consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the transmission of delay tolerant data and delay critical data into a single radio setup operation. By merging these transmission operations, the system avoids multiple separate radio setups and power save state transitions, thereby reducing battery power consumption while maintaining data transmission reliability through proper data classification and scheduling.
2Reliability
If multiple radio setups are performed for separate data transmissions, then data transmission completeness is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple radio setup operations into a single unified setup by classifying data into delay tolerant and delay critical categories. This consolidation reduces the number of radio setup operations and power save state transitions, thereby reducing device complexity while ensuring complete data transmission through proper scheduling of both data types within the unified transmission framework.

AI summary
Transmission of delay tolerant data. An apparatus includes a processor configured to classify data, on the basis of its delay requirement, into delay tolerant data and into delay critical data, and to control transmission of the delay tolerant data with a transmitter in such a manner that the transmission of the delay tolerant data is timed to coincide with transmission of the delay critical data.
