Solution Overview

Problem

Existing communication systems face inefficiencies in allocating radio resources when handling data with different quality of service (QoS) requirements, leading to suboptimal use of network resources.

Innovation Solution

Implementing priority control by grouping logical channels based on QoS and using masking/scrambling techniques to allocate radio resources to logical channel groups, rather than individual mobile stations, ensuring efficient resource utilization.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If radio resources are collectively allocated to data of different QoS, then the allocation process is simplified, but the radio resources between base station and mobile station fail to be used efficiently

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveallocation process complexityVSAvoidradio resource usage efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments data into different logical channel groups based on QoS requirements. Each group is assigned dedicated radio resources through control information, enabling differentiated allocation strategies. This segmentation resolves the contradiction by maintaining allocation simplicity at the group level while achieving efficient resource usage at the individual data level.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Device complexity

If priority control is not properly performed on data with different requirements, then the control mechanism is simpler, but radio resources are not used efficiently

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontrol mechanism complexityVSAvoidradio resource usage efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action by pre-configuring control information that specifies radio resource allocation rules for different logical channel groups before data transmission occurs. This allows the mobile station to automatically apply appropriate priority control without complex real-time decision-making, resolving the contradiction between control simplicity and resource efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Adaptability or versatility

If standard 4G technologies are used, then compatibility is maintained, but higher data rates, larger capacity, and lower latency cannot be achieved

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork compatibilityVSAvoiddata rate and capacity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges 4G compatibility with 5G advanced features by integrating logical channel group-based priority control into the existing 4G framework. This allows the system to maintain compatibility with standard 4G devices while achieving 5G-level performance through differentiated resource allocation for various QoS requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

A mobile station is a mobile station configured to transmit data to a base station by performing priority control, and includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to be capable of transmitting a plurality of pieces of data having different requirements corresponding to a plurality of channel groups, and be capable of, when performing the priority control, applying a radio resource specified by the base station to a channel group specified by the base station out of the channel groups and controlling transmission of the data.
