Solution Overview

Problem

The existing 5G NR system faces challenges in achieving a flexible compromise between high reliability and low complexity while ensuring low latency for URLLC services, as conventional schemes struggle to meet both requirements simultaneously.

Innovation Solution

The proposed method involves a data transmission approach where a terminal adjusts its RV value or DMRS from a current value to another value when transmitting data beyond a configured period, with the network device providing resource configuration information that includes parameters such as resource allocation periods, repetition quantities, and allowed transmission occasions beyond the period boundaries.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If repeated transmission scheme is used to increase reliability, then reliability is improved, but latency increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication reliabilityVSAvoidtransmission latency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic adjustment of repetition quantity based on channel conditions and transmission requirements. The network device can flexibly configure the number of repetitions (K0, K1, K2) depending on the current channel state, allowing the system to adapt between reliability and latency requirements in real-time, rather than using fixed repetition schemes

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter of repetition quantity from a fixed value to a dynamically adjustable parameter. By modifying the repetition count based on channel quality indicators and transmission priority, the system can optimize the balance between reliability (more repetitions) and latency (fewer repetitions) for different transmission scenarios

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If flexible transmission scheme is implemented to compromise between reliability and complexity, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveflexibility in meeting URLLC requirementsVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses parameter changes by dynamically adjusting the repetition quantity parameter based on channel conditions and transmission requirements. This allows flexible adaptation to different URLLC scenarios without requiring complex structural changes to the transmission framework

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The network device performs preliminary configuration of repetition parameters based on predicted channel conditions and transmission requirements. By pre-configuring appropriate repetition quantities before actual transmission, the system reduces real-time decision complexity while maintaining adaptability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
