Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If OAM modes are transmitted using multiple antenna circles, then data throughput is improved, but channel gain variation across antenna circles causes reliability degradation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by dynamically adjusting the selection of transmitter circles based on channel gain measurements. The system changes the operational parameters (which antenna circles are active) according to the measured channel conditions, thereby adapting to varying reliability requirements while maintaining high throughput through optimal circle selection for each OAM mode.
2Reliability
If optimal transmitter circle selection is implemented, then communication reliability is improved, but system complexity increases due to additional measurement and selection procedures
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by performing channel gain measurements and determining optimal transmitter circle mappings before actual data transmission. This advance preparation allows the system to establish reliable transmission parameters in advance, reducing the complexity of real-time decision-making during data transmission while maintaining high reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system employs feedback mechanisms where channel gain measurements are continuously monitored and used to adjust transmitter circle selections. The receiving device provides feedback about channel conditions, enabling the transmitting device to optimize its transmission strategy, thereby improving reliability without requiring overly complex centralized control.
3Productivity
If power loading is performed across transmitter circles, then network efficiency is improved, but the complexity of power management increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes in power loading by dynamically adjusting the power allocation to different transmitter circles based on their channel gain characteristics. The system changes power distribution parameters to match the optimal transmitter circle selections, thereby improving network efficiency while keeping power management complexity manageable through automated adaptation to channel conditions.

AI summary
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first device (e.g., a base station) may transmit reference signals to a second device (e.g., a user equipment (UE)) via transmitter antenna circles. The second device may receive and measure the reference signals via corresponding receiver antenna circles. Both the transmitter antenna circles and the in receiver antenna circles may include a center antenna circle and one or more peripheral antenna circles. The second device may transmit channel gain measurements to the first device based on measuring the reference signals. The first device may determine orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes, a power loading scheme, or both for the transmitter antenna circles based on the channel gain measurements. The first device may transmit OAM transmissions to the second device based on the determined OAM modes, the power loading scheme, or both. The OAM transmissions may have different OAM states, polarizations, or both.
