Paging Group Segmentation for Terminal Power Reduction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In wireless communication systems, terminal devices in inactive states face challenges in efficiently monitoring paging messages due to the need to monitor all paging groups, leading to increased power consumption and potential missed paging notifications.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a paging processing method where terminal devices monitor paging messages based on specific paging group information, reducing the need to monitor all paging groups and allowing for independent control of idle and inactive states, thereby conserving power and prolonging standby time.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If terminal devices monitor all paging groups to ensure no paging messages are missed, then paging notification reliability is improved, but power consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The paging groups are segmented and assigned to different terminal devices based on their identities. Each terminal device only needs to monitor its assigned paging group(s) rather than all paging groups, reducing monitoring overhead and power consumption while maintaining reliable paging notification delivery to the appropriate devices.
Solution Approach 2:
Different terminal devices are assigned different paging groups based on their specific identities and characteristics. This local differentiation allows each device to monitor only the relevant paging group(s) for its identity, reducing unnecessary monitoring of other paging groups and thereby reducing power consumption while ensuring reliable delivery of paging messages intended for each specific device.
2Reliability
If terminal devices monitor all paging groups to ensure no paging messages are missed, then paging notification completeness is improved, but standby time decreases
Solution Approach 1:
Paging groups are segmented and specifically assigned to terminal devices based on their identities. This segmentation enables terminal devices to monitor only their assigned paging group(s) during standby, reducing the time and energy required for monitoring while ensuring that all paging messages intended for each specific device are still received completely and reliably.
Solution Approach 2:
Each terminal device is assigned specific paging groups based on its identity characteristics. This local quality approach allows devices to maintain complete paging notification reception for their assigned groups while reducing unnecessary monitoring of other groups, thereby extending standby time without compromising notification completeness.
3Reliability
If terminal devices in inactive state monitor paging messages, then paging reception capability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Paging groups are segmented and assigned to terminal devices in inactive state based on their identities. This segmentation simplifies the monitoring process for inactive devices, as they only need to monitor their assigned paging group(s) rather than all paging groups, reducing monitoring complexity while maintaining the capability to receive paging messages when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
Terminal devices in inactive state are assigned specific paging groups based on their identities, enabling them to maintain paging reception capability for their assigned groups with reduced complexity. This local quality approach allows inactive devices to efficiently monitor only relevant paging groups without the burden of monitoring all paging groups, balancing reception capability with operational simplicity.
