Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Managing distributed radio resources across multiple radio links in wireless communication networks, particularly in subnetworks operating autonomously, is challenging due to uncoordinated radio resource control states leading to unnecessary delays and inefficient resource utilization.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for determining a connection path with multiple radio links, obtaining a management scheme to coordinate radio resource usage, and synchronizing control states across these links to optimize resource utilization and minimize delays.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If autonomous subnetworks operate independently with multiple radio links, then network autonomy and flexibility are improved, but radio resource control state coordination deteriorates leading to unnecessary delays
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a coordination mechanism that acts as an intermediary between autonomous subnetworks. This mediator synchronizes radio resource control states across multiple radio links without compromising subnetwork autonomy, thereby eliminating coordination delays while preserving independent operation capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The coordination mechanism is designed to work universally across different autonomous subnetworks and multiple radio links simultaneously. It provides a multi-functional solution that handles state synchronization, resource allocation, and delay optimization across heterogeneous network configurations.
2Productivity
If multiple radio links are used to connect overlaying network and subnetwork, then connectivity and resource distribution are improved, but resource utilization efficiency deteriorates due to uncoordinated control states
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the control states of multiple radio links into a coordinated framework. By combining resource allocation decisions across all radio links connecting overlaying and subnetworks, the system achieves efficient resource utilization while maintaining high connectivity through multiple paths.
Solution Approach 2:
The coordination mechanism implements feedback loops that monitor resource usage across multiple radio links. This feedback enables dynamic adjustment of resource allocation to optimize utilization efficiency while maintaining the connectivity benefits of multiple radio links.
