Solution Overview

Problem

Existing wireless communication technologies lack a defined process for transmitting push messages using an appropriate Point To Multipoint (PTM) bearer mode when multiple PTM bearer modes coexist, leading to inefficiencies in service implementation.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that determine and adapt the appropriate PTM bearer mode for push messages, selecting from modes like CBS, MBMS, BCMCS, and BCAST, and configuring the corresponding transmission bearer type to ensure efficient transmission through a recognized PTM bearer network.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If multiple PTM bearer modes (CBS, MBMS, BCMCS, BCAST) are used for push message transmission, then the network can serve diverse broadcast/multicast scenarios, but the system complexity increases due to lack of defined selection process

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovePTM bearer mode adaptabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by modifying the push message to include bearer mode indication information and adaptation type information. The network device changes the message parameters to enable proper identification and selection of appropriate PTM bearer modes, resolving the complexity issue through standardized parameter modification rather than creating new selection mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary mechanism where the push message itself acts as a mediator carrying bearer mode indication information and adaptation type information. This intermediary structure enables the network device to automatically select appropriate PTM bearer modes without complex decision-making logic, thus reducing system complexity while maintaining versatility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If push messages are transmitted through PTM bearer mode, then the network burden is reduced for multiple terminal services, but the lack of defined transmission process causes implementation inefficiency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission efficiencyVSAvoidimplementation ease
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-defining the transmission process in the push message itself before actual transmission occurs. The bearer mode indication information and adaptation type information are prepared in advance within the push message structure, enabling the network device to execute the transmission process efficiently without requiring complex real-time decision-making or additional implementation steps.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Reliability

If different PTM bearer modes are used for different services, then service-specific optimization is achieved, but the network device cannot automatically select appropriate modes without defined processes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice implementation reliabilityVSAvoidautomatic selection capability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies self-service by enabling the push message to carry its own selection information through bearer mode indication information and adaptation type information. The network device simply needs to read these pre-contained parameters rather than performing complex analysis or decision-making, thus achieving automatic selection capability while maintaining service-specific optimization reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

A method for transmitting a push message includes determining at least one mode in PTM bearer modes for a received push message; adapting respectively, for the push message, a transmission bearer type corresponding to the at least one mode; and transmitting the adapted push message to a terminal through a PTM bearer network corresponding to the transmission bearer type.
