Dynamic Beam Switching for High-Band Radio Resource Efficiency
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current communication methods in high-band radio networks face challenges in resource utilization due to limited coverage area and inefficient beam scheduling, leading to waste of resources when only a few terminal devices need to transmit data.
Innovation Solution
A communication method that dynamically adjusts serving beams based on network status by sending instruction information in a first time period to instruct terminal devices to use a different serving beam in a second time period, improving resource utilization through beam selection based on signal quality and threshold conditions.

1Productivity
If beam scheduling is performed based on resource utilization and delay, then communication efficiency is improved, but resource utilization deteriorates when only a few terminal devices need to transmit data
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic beam switching by allowing the network device to send indication information that instructs terminal devices to switch from a first serving beam to a second serving beam for uplink transmission. This dynamic adjustment enables the system to adapt beam selection to actual traffic conditions, improving resource utilization when only a few terminals need to transmit data while maintaining communication efficiency.
2Area of stationary object
If multiple antennas are used to form high-gain beams, then high-band coverage area is enlarged, but device complexity increases due to antenna cost limitations
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables a single serving beam to serve multiple terminal devices simultaneously for uplink transmission. The network device can instruct multiple terminals to use the same second serving beam, making the beam resource universal and multi-functional. This approach enlarges effective coverage area without requiring additional antennas or complex multi-beam configurations at each terminal.
