Dynamic HARQ-ACK Resource Allocation for Uplink Efficiency

The patent implements dynamic resource allocation where the base station adjusts the quantity of code channel resources based on the actual number of CA UEs in each period. Instead of reserving a fixed quantity of resources, the system periodically obtains quantity information of scheduled UEs and dynamically allocates M transmission resources, making the resource quantity adaptable to changing network conditions and eliminating resource waste when UE count is low

The patent changes the parameter of resource quantity from a fixed value to a variable that depends on the number of CA UEs. By establishing a correspondence between UE quantity ranges and resource allocation quantities (M values), the system transforms the static resource reservation into a dynamic parameter adjustment mechanism, allowing optimal resource utilization across different traffic scenarios

The system dynamically scales resource allocation upward when the number of CA UEs increases. The base station periodically monitors UE quantity and adjusts M transmission resources accordingly, ensuring that sufficient code channel resources are available during high-traffic periods to maintain downlink throughput, while avoiding resource waste during low-traffic periods

The patent implements parameter changes by adjusting the resource quantity M based on UE count thresholds. When UE quantity exceeds certain ranges, the system automatically increases M to maintain throughput performance, and decreases M when UE quantity is low, optimizing the balance between resource efficiency and throughput across different operational scenarios

The patent introduces dynamic adaptation mechanisms while maintaining manageable complexity through automated procedures. The base station periodically obtains UE quantity information and automatically determines M resources based on pre-configured range mappings, providing flexibility without requiring complex manual configuration or intricate allocation algorithms

The system implements self-service through automated resource allocation where the base station independently monitors UE quantities and adjusts resource allocation without external intervention. The periodic automatic adjustment mechanism allows the system to adapt to changing conditions autonomously, achieving flexibility through streamlined self-managed processes rather than complex external control
