Solution Overview

Problem

Hyper-precision communication services (HPS) face degradation in quality due to increased delay and latency during packet transmission, particularly in 5G-Advanced and 6G networks, resulting from high bandwidth requirements and low network processing rates.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that apply a quality-of-service (QoS) profile with performance parameters and select optimal algorithms like PRIO, CBS, MQPRIO, TAPRIO, and TAPRIO+ETF to minimize delay and latency by using UDP and socket communication, ensuring timely and high-quality data transmission.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If TCP/IP protocol is used for packet transmission, then reliability is improved, but delay and latency increase greatly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission reliabilityVSAvoiddelay and latency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the protocol parameter from TCP to UDP, fundamentally altering the transmission mechanism to reduce delay and latency while maintaining acceptable reliability for HPS through QoS mechanisms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically selects different QoS algorithms (PRIO, CBS, MQPRIO, TAPRIO, TAPRIO+ETF) based on network conditions and service requirements, allowing adaptive optimization of the transmission path to balance reliability and latency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Productivity

If high bandwidth is allocated for HPS transmission, then data rate is improved, but network processing rate decreases causing delay

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission rateVSAvoidnetwork processing delay
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments network traffic into different priority classes using QoS mechanisms, allowing HPS packets to be processed separately from general traffic, thus achieving high bandwidth allocation without proportionally increasing processing delay through prioritized handling

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The QoS algorithm acts as an intermediary between high bandwidth requirements and network processing capabilities, managing packet flow and priority to ensure that increased data rates do not linearly increase processing delays

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Loss of time

If optimal QoS algorithm is selected for HPS type, then delay and latency are reduced, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveend-to-end latencyVSAvoidalgorithm selection complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary classification of HPS types and pre-configures appropriate QoS algorithms, so that when transmission occurs, the optimal algorithm is already in place, reducing real-time decision complexity while maintaining low latency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
