Solution Overview

Problem

Current wireless communication systems lack the ability to effectively implement a parameter configuration policy adjustment for deferred location requests based on radio signal strength, failing to meet the requirements of application programs.

Innovation Solution

An event processing method and device that generate a location report request indicating a radio signal strength-based deferred location report event, allowing the UE to determine and report such events, enabling the location application device to adjust parameter configurations accordingly.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a deferred location request is implemented with predefined trigger events, then the location service can be provided, but the system cannot adjust parameter configuration policy according to radio signal strength

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveparameter configuration policy adjustmentVSAvoidevent processing mechanism
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces radio signal strength as a dynamic parameter for triggering deferred location reports. The AMF entity monitors radio signal strength parameters and compares them against thresholds to determine when to trigger location reports, allowing the system to adapt parameter configuration based on real-time signal conditions rather than using fixed trigger events.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The system transitions from static, predefined trigger events to dynamic trigger mechanisms that continuously monitor radio signal strength. This allows the deferred location request system to adaptively respond to changing radio conditions, making the parameter configuration policy flexible and responsive to actual network environment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Measurement precision

If the system monitors radio signal strength continuously, then it can detect deferred location report events accurately, but energy consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveevent detection accuracyVSAvoidUE energy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements a feedback mechanism where the AMF entity receives location information from the UE and uses this feedback to continue monitoring radio signal strength. The continuous feedback loop allows the system to maintain accurate event detection while optimizing energy usage by only triggering reports when signal strength thresholds are met, rather than constant high-power monitoring.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

Instead of continuous monitoring, the system uses periodic checks of radio signal strength at defined intervals or triggered by specific events. This periodic approach maintains sufficient detection accuracy while significantly reducing energy consumption compared to continuous monitoring, as the UE can enter low-power states between measurement periods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action
