Solution Overview

Problem

Existing LTE sidelink communication systems lack solutions for capability and resource allocation, particularly for advanced V2X services requiring unicast, multicast, or groupcast, which are supported by the NR system but not adequately addressed in related art.

Innovation Solution

A method and system for terminal devices and control devices to obtain and manage information about maximum processing capabilities and allocable resources, enabling flexible and dynamic allocation for sidelink transmission configurations, including different transmission types, resource pools, services, connection statuses, and transmission modes.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If LTE sidelink communication is used, then basic security communication is supported, but advanced V2X services requiring unicast, multicast, or groupcast are not applicable

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice type supportVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the fundamental parameters of sidelink communication by introducing capability negotiation mechanisms and resource allocation frameworks that enable advanced service types (unicast, multicast, groupcast) while maintaining the basic security communication foundation. This allows the system to adapt to different service requirements without requiring complete system redesign.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If NR SL system supports establishment of SL connections to multiple peer devices, then comprehensive service types are enabled, but capability and resource allocation solutions are not provided in related art

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission mode supportVSAvoidresource management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the resource allocation problem into multiple manageable components by introducing separate mechanisms for capability negotiation, resource pool configuration, and allocation decision-making. This segmentation allows the system to handle multiple peer devices and transmission modes systematically without overwhelming complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic capability negotiation and resource allocation mechanisms that can adapt to changing network conditions and service requirements. The system can dynamically adjust resource allocation based on real-time needs of different peer devices and transmission modes, enabling comprehensive service support without fixed complex infrastructure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Productivity

If capability and resource allocation information is obtained and managed, then flexible and dynamic allocation is enabled, but implementation complexity and costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource allocation efficiencyVSAvoidimplementation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables terminal devices to autonomously obtain and manage capability and resource allocation information through self-configuration mechanisms. Devices can independently negotiate capabilities and allocate resources without requiring complex centralized control, thereby achieving efficient resource allocation while reducing overall implementation complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
