1Productivity
If the maximum number of spatial streams is increased in DL MU-MIMO, then spectrum efficiency is improved, but transmission processing complexity in Multi-Link becomes insufficiently addressed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments feedback information transmission by link, where each link transmits feedback information independently. This segmentation approach allows the system to handle increased spatial streams by distributing the feedback burden across multiple links, thereby maintaining spectrum efficiency while managing transmission processing complexity through divided responsibility.
2Productivity
If feedback information is transmitted in Multi-Link operations, then transmission efficiency can be improved, but frequency utilization efficiency deteriorates without optimization
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the parameter of feedback information distribution by link, optimizing which links transmit feedback information based on system state. This parameter optimization ensures that feedback transmission improves overall transmission efficiency while minimizing the impact on frequency utilization efficiency through intelligent resource allocation.
