Solution Overview

Problem

Existing modulation methods in mobile communication systems require extensive shifting operations and occupy large memory spaces due to the need to match varying bit lengths for data sources and modulation formats, leading to inefficiencies and resource consumption.

Innovation Solution

A modulation method that extracts and separates odd and even bit data from each modulation unit based on position adjustment information, allowing for format adjustment and scaling of modulation parameters without extending them, thereby eliminating the need for shifting operations and reducing memory usage.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If the data source is divided according to the number of bits required for modulating and table lookup is performed, then modulation can be implemented, but more shifting operations are required leading to slower speed and lower efficiency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodulation efficiencyVSAvoidshifting operations
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the bit data into odd-position bits and even-position bits, processing them separately through different lookup tables. This segmentation eliminates the need for shifting operations by directly accessing the appropriate bits and combining results, thereby improving modulation efficiency while reducing operational complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces intermediate lookup tables that store pre-computed modulation values for odd and even bit positions. These intermediate structures act as mediators that eliminate the need for real-time shifting operations, allowing direct retrieval and combination of modulation results, thus improving speed and efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If modulation parameters are extended according to a format of a data source, then modulation can be implemented, but the extended modulation parameters occupy a large memory space consuming too many memory resources

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodulation format compatibilityVSAvoidmemory space
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the modulation parameter storage into separate lookup tables for odd and even bit positions. Instead of extending modulation parameters to cover all possible data source formats, separate compact tables are created for each bit position type, reducing total memory occupancy while maintaining adaptability to different data formats.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies different lookup tables with locally optimized structures for odd and even bit positions. Each lookup table is tailored to its specific bit position requirements, avoiding the need for universally extended parameters. This local optimization reduces memory space while maintaining format compatibility through selective application.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
