Problem

Existing wireless communication systems face challenges in efficiently performing subband non-overlapping full duplex (SBFD) operations, which are essential for providing high-speed and reliable services in advanced mobile communication systems like 5G and 6G.

Innovation Solution

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Speed

If subband non-overlapping full duplex (SBFD) operations are implemented to enable high-speed data transmission, then transmission rate is improved, but interference between uplink and downlink signals increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission rateVSAvoidsignal interference
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The bandwidth is divided into multiple subbands, with certain subbands allocated for downlink transmission and others for uplink transmission. This segmentation prevents overlapping of uplink and downlink signals in the frequency domain, thereby enabling high-speed transmission while minimizing interference between opposite-direction signals.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different quality characteristics are assigned to different subbands based on channel conditions and service requirements. By optimizing precoding parameters and resource allocation locally for each subband, the system achieves high transmission rates in favorable subbands while suppressing interference in challenging subbands.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Reliability

If dynamic precoder determination is used to optimize resource allocation in SBFD operations, then service delivery reliability is improved, but computational complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice delivery reliabilityVSAvoidcomputational complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Precoder candidates are pre-configured and prepared in advance based on channel state information and service requirements. During actual transmission, the gNB selects from these pre-prepared candidates rather than computing precoders from scratch, thereby improving service delivery reliability while reducing real-time computational complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system utilizes available channel state information and historical data to autonomously determine optimal precoding parameters without requiring extensive real-time computation or external intervention. The gNB self-adjusts precoding based on feedback from UEs, achieving reliable service delivery with reduced computational burden.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
