Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If subband CSI-related parameters are configured for diverse services (eMBB, mmW, mMTC, URLLC) in the same subframe, then service diversity and adaptability are improved, but system complexity and parameter management difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system bandwidth is divided into multiple subbands, and different subband CSI-related parameters are configured for different services. Each service type (eMBB, mmW, mMTC, URLLC) can have dedicated parameter configurations within specific subbands, allowing service-specific optimization without affecting other services. This segmentation enables diverse services to coexist with tailored parameters while maintaining manageable complexity through structured organization.
Solution Approach 2:
Different subbands are assigned different CSI-related parameters according to service requirements. Instead of using uniform parameters across the entire bandwidth, the system applies local quality by customizing parameters (such as CSI reporting configurations, reference signal settings) in specific subbands where particular services operate, thereby optimizing performance for each service type in its designated frequency region.
2Productivity
If partial band settings are determined for multiple partial bands within system bandwidth, then spectral efficiency is improved, but calculation and configuration complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system bandwidth is segmented into multiple partial bands, with each partial band having independently determined settings. This allows the system to optimize resource allocation and CSI configuration for each partial band separately, improving spectral efficiency by matching parameters to local channel conditions while managing complexity through modular configuration of each segment.
Solution Approach 2:
Partial band settings are dynamically determined based on service requirements and channel conditions. The system can adaptively adjust parameters for different partial bands according to real-time needs, enabling flexible resource allocation that improves spectral efficiency while the structured dynamic adjustment process keeps configuration complexity manageable through systematic rules.
