Radio Base Station Blockchain Load Balancing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In radio communication systems using blockchain technology, the autonomous decision of user terminals to connect to specific radio base stations leads to biased traffic distribution, resulting in degraded utilization efficiency of radio resources across the entire system.
Innovation Solution
A method where radio base stations broadcast their connection conditions, manage connections using a shared blockchain, and adjust their own connection conditions based on information about connected stations from other base stations to optimize resource allocation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If radio stations autonomously determine connection destinations based on connection cost, then ease of operation is improved, but radio resource utilization efficiency deteriorates due to biased traffic distribution
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback by having radio base stations broadcast their connection conditions (including current load status) and having radio stations acquire connection information from other base stations via blockchain before making connection decisions. This feedback loop enables radio stations to make informed autonomous decisions that consider overall network conditions, preventing traffic concentration while maintaining operational simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies preliminary action by requiring radio stations to acquire connection information from other radio base stations through blockchain before making connection decisions. This advance information gathering allows stations to predict future connection states and distribute traffic more evenly across the network, preventing bias toward specific base stations while maintaining autonomous operation.
2Ease of operation
If radio stations connect to specific radio base stations with low connection cost, then ease of operation is improved, but device complexity increases due to need for blockchain information management
Solution Approach 1:
The blockchain serves as an intermediary layer that automatically manages and shares connection information between radio base stations. Radio stations simply query the blockchain for connection information without needing to implement complex information management systems themselves. This intermediary handles the complexity of distributed information management while keeping the radio station operation simple.
3Ease of operation
If traffic concentrates on specific radio base stations, then ease of operation is improved for connected stations, but loss of energy increases due to inefficient resource distribution
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements dynamics by having radio base stations dynamically update their connection conditions in the blockchain based on current load status. Radio stations can dynamically adjust their connection choices based on real-time information from the blockchain, enabling flexible load balancing that adapts to changing network conditions and prevents energy waste from inefficient resource distribution.

AI summary
A radio communication method includes: a transmitting step of broadcasting, by a radio base station, a connection condition of the radio base station; a managing step of managing, by the radio base station, a connection with a radio station requesting a connection to the radio base station based on the connection condition, by using a blockchain shared by a plurality of radio base stations; and a changing step of acquiring, by the radio base station, information on a radio station connected to another radio base station from the blockchain and changing the connection condition of the radio base station based on the information on the radio station connected to the other radio base station.
