Dynamic Priority Allocation in Wireless Mobile Communication Systems
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Wireless mobile communication systems often become overloaded during events, leading to service deprivation for some users, and existing priority systems lack flexibility and impose burdens on users to obtain priority.
Innovation Solution
A priority allocation system comprising a priority data storage system, administrator interface, and priority enforcement system that allows subscriber groups to set and enforce priorities for different types of communication applications and network conditions, enabling flexible priority management and resource allocation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional priority systems use special access codes to grant priority, then priority service can be provided to authorized users, but user burden increases and system flexibility decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically determines priority based on pre-configured subscriber group profiles and current network conditions. The priority enforcement system autonomously evaluates resource utilization thresholds and application types to grant priority without requiring users to manually input access codes or configure settings, thereby eliminating user burden while maintaining reliable priority service
Solution Approach 2:
The priority system dynamically adjusts priority levels based on real-time network conditions, resource utilization thresholds, and subscriber group configurations. Administrators can flexibly modify priority parameters through the administrator interface without requiring system reconfiguration, enabling the system to adapt to changing conditions while maintaining operational simplicity for users
2Reliability
If wireless systems grant priority to specific users during overload, then critical services can be maintained, but system complexity and configuration burden increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments users into predefined subscriber groups with distinct priority profiles configured by administrators. Each subscriber group has predetermined priority levels for different application types and network conditions, eliminating the need for complex individual user configurations while ensuring critical services receive appropriate priority treatment during overload
Solution Approach 2:
Administrator interfaces enable pre-configuration of priority parameters, subscriber group profiles, and resource utilization thresholds before network overload occurs. This preliminary setup automates priority enforcement during critical events, maintaining reliability without requiring complex real-time decision-making or increasing operational complexity
3Adaptability or versatility
If priority is provided flexibly based on multiple parameters, then system adaptability improves, but measurement and enforcement difficulty increases
Solution Approach 1:
The priority enforcement system continuously monitors network resource utilization and compares actual conditions against pre-configured thresholds for different subscriber groups. This feedback mechanism automatically adjusts priority enforcement based on real-time measurements of resource usage, application types, and network conditions, enabling flexible priority allocation while simplifying enforcement through automated threshold-based decision rules

AI summary
A priority allocation system may be adapted to regulate the priority which different users of a wireless mobile communication system are given to one or more of its various services. It may include a priority level data storage system, a priority enforcement system, an administrator interface, and a subscriber interface. The priority data storage system may be configured to store priority information for each of a plurality of subscriber groups. Each subscriber group may be assigned to one or more wireless mobile communication devices. The priority information for each subscriber group may be indicative of one or more priorities relating to use of the mobile communication system by all of the wireless mobile communication devices which are assigned to the subscriber group.
