Solution Overview

Problem

The existing wireless communication systems, such as Evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (E-UMTS), face inefficiencies in call setup processes due to the lack of relevant information about radio resources and terminal capabilities during the paging process, leading to delayed call setup and complexity.

Innovation Solution

Transmitting a paging message that includes call-related and terminal-related information from the core network to network entities, allowing for efficient radio resource allocation and reduced unnecessary operations, thereby minimizing call setup time.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of time

If paging message includes only basic terminal identifier, then message size is small and transmission is simple, but call setup time increases due to lack of radio resource and terminal capability information

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecall setup timeVSAvoidpaging message structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by including call-related information (such as radio resource allocation, handover preparation data, and terminal capability indicators) in the paging message before the actual call setup process begins. This allows the base station and terminal to pre-configure necessary parameters, eliminating the need for separate information exchange phases and reducing overall call setup time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent merges multiple information elements (terminal identifier, call-related information, and terminal capability data) into a single paging message structure. By combining these previously separate communication steps into one integrated message, the patent reduces the number of signaling rounds and accelerates the call setup process while managing complexity through standardized message formatting.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Productivity

If paging message includes call-related and terminal-related information, then radio resource allocation efficiency improves, but information transmission volume increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveradio resource allocation efficiencyVSAvoidinformation transmission volume
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by selectively including only the specific call-related information and terminal capability parameters that are actually needed for the current call setup scenario. Rather than transmitting all possible information elements universally, the message structure allows for targeted inclusion of relevant data (such as handover preparation indicators or specific radio resource parameters), optimizing bandwidth usage while maintaining allocation efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Reliability

If detailed terminal capability information is transmitted in paging message, then network can optimize resource allocation, but processing complexity at base station increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource allocation optimizationVSAvoidbase station processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent reduces base station processing complexity by having the terminal prepare and include its capability information in the paging message reception phase itself. The base station receives pre-processed terminal capability data that requires minimal additional processing, while still enabling optimized resource allocation decisions based on the included information about terminal supported formats, bandwidth capabilities, and service requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
