Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In existing 5G NR systems, multiple terminal devices attempting random access simultaneously can lead to competition failures and increased access delays due to uneven distribution and unadjusted random access parameters, resulting in low efficiency.
Innovation Solution
A method where terminal devices report their random access situations to the network device, allowing it to adjust parameters such as thresholds and resource allocation to optimize access procedures, ensuring even distribution and reducing contention.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If multiple terminal devices use the same random access procedure simultaneously, then the random access procedure is simple, but the access delay increases and access efficiency decreases due to competition failures
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces dynamic adjustment of random access parameters (such as thresholds and resource allocation) based on real-time terminal device distribution information. The network device continuously monitors the distribution of terminal devices and adjusts parameters dynamically to optimize random access performance, transforming the static random access configuration into a dynamic adaptive system that responds to changing network conditions
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where terminal devices report their distribution information to the network device, which then adjusts random access parameters based on this feedback. The network device uses the reported distribution information to optimize parameter configuration, creating a closed-loop control system that continuously improves random access efficiency based on actual network conditions
2Device complexity
If random access parameters are not adjusted, then the configuration is simple, but terminal device distribution becomes uneven leading to increased competition and reduced access efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-configuring multiple random access parameter sets with different threshold values and resource allocations. The network device prepares these parameter sets in advance and selects the appropriate set based on terminal device distribution information, enabling proactive optimization before competition issues arise rather than reacting after problems occur
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements parameter changes by adjusting random access parameters (such as thresholds and resource allocation configurations) based on terminal device distribution information. The network device modifies specific parameters like threshold values and resource pool allocations to optimize the random access procedure according to actual network conditions, transforming fixed parameters into adjustable variables
3Stability of the object's composition
If terminal devices always use the selected random access type without changing, then the access procedure is consistent, but failure to adapt to distribution changes results in increased access delays
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces dynamic adjustment of random access parameters (such as thresholds and resource allocation) based on real-time terminal device distribution information. The network device continuously monitors the distribution of terminal devices and adjusts parameters dynamically to optimize random access performance, transforming the static random access configuration into a dynamic adaptive system that responds to changing network conditions
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements parameter changes by adjusting random access parameters (such as thresholds and resource allocation configurations) based on terminal device distribution information. The network device modifies specific parameters like threshold values and resource pool allocations to optimize the random access procedure according to actual network conditions, transforming fixed parameters into adjustable variables
