Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If machine learning technology is integrated into wireless communication, then communication efficiency and accuracy are improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the machine learning system into distinct components: model generation unit, model selection unit, and inference unit. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function independently, managing complexity while maintaining overall system efficiency. The model generation unit creates ML models, the selection unit chooses appropriate models based on channel conditions, and the inference unit executes predictions, thereby resolving the contradiction between improved productivity and increased device complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Measurement precision

If machine learning models are used for channel state information feedback, then feedback accuracy is improved, but overhead increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefeedback accuracyVSAvoidoverhead
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs copying by training machine learning models to replicate the complex relationship between channel inputs and state outputs. Instead of transmitting detailed channel state information, the system copies the essential patterns into pre-trained models that can be efficiently transmitted and executed. This approach maintains high feedback accuracy while significantly reducing the overhead required for channel state information transmission.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Measurement precision

If machine learning processing is applied, then communication accuracy is improved, but power consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication accuracyVSAvoidpower consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-training machine learning models offline before deployment. The model generation unit creates trained models in advance based on historical channel data, storing them for later use. During actual communication, the inference unit executes these pre-trained models rather than performing training computations in real-time. This preliminary preparation significantly reduces power consumption during operation while maintaining high communication accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A communication method for applying a machine learning technology to wireless communication between a user equipment and a network node in a mobile communication system includes: transmitting, by one communication apparatus among a user equipment and a network node, a notification indicating at least one selected from the group consisting of including an untrained model, including a model in training, and including a trained model on which testing has been completed to the other communication apparatus among the user equipment and the network node; and receiving, by the one communication apparatus, a response corresponding to the notification from the other communication apparatus.
