Mobile Apparatus Speed Threshold Base Station Connection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional wireless network architectures face inefficiencies in maintaining stable connections for mobile devices with varying speeds due to frequent handovers and resource-intensive signal strength measurements by small cell base stations, leading to decreased network utilization.
Innovation Solution
A method where a mobile apparatus calculates its moving speed and connects with a base station only if the speed is within the station's broadcasted acceptable range, defined by speed threshold values, thereby avoiding unstable connections and reducing handovers.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If small cell base stations are deployed to ease the working load of macrocell base stations, then network utilization efficiency is improved, but mobile apparatuses moving at high speed experience frequent handovers and connection instability
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by introducing speed threshold information as a selection criterion for base station connection. The mobile apparatus changes its connection behavior based on its moving speed parameter, comparing it against broadcast speed thresholds to determine whether to connect to small cell or macrocell base stations, thereby resolving the contradiction between network efficiency and connection stability.
2Measurement precision
If mobile apparatus measures signal strength of multiple base stations to determine connection, then connection decision accuracy is improved, but resource consumption and network burden increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by having base stations broadcast speed threshold information in advance before the mobile apparatus needs to make connection decisions. The mobile apparatus uses this pre-provided information along with its own speed measurement to directly determine connectivity without performing exhaustive signal strength measurements of multiple base stations, thus reducing resource consumption while maintaining decision accuracy.
