Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current techniques are inefficient in controlling Quality-of-Service (QoS) for diverse wireless relays that deliver mixed voice and data services, leading to over-burdened wireless base stations and compromised QoS delivery.
Innovation Solution
A wireless communication network system that allocates individual carrier aggregation QoS levels to wireless relays based on their media services, using relay control circuitry to manage and transfer these levels to wireless base stations, ensuring customized QoS delivery to User Equipment (UEs).
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If wireless relays are deployed to extend network range, then network coverage is improved, but base stations become over-burdened and QoS deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements differentiated QoS treatment for different relay types. Voice-calling relays receive priority QoS handling with dedicated resources and higher quality parameters, while data-only relays receive standard QoS. This local quality differentiation allows the system to maintain high QoS for critical voice services even as network coverage expands through relay deployment.
2Adaptability or versatility
If diverse types of wireless relays are supported, then network versatility is improved, but QoS control complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments relays into distinct categories (voice-calling relays, data-only relays, and relays with both capabilities) and applies specific QoS control rules to each segment. The base station identifies relay type through capability reporting and applies corresponding QoS parameters. This segmentation simplifies the control mechanism by avoiding the need to handle each relay individually, thus managing complexity while supporting diversity.
3Ease of operation
If uniform QoS control is applied to all relays, then system simplicity is maintained, but QoS efficiency for mixed services deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic QoS control where the base station adjusts QoS parameters based on real-time relay type identification and service requirements. When a voice-calling relay is detected, the system dynamically allocates priority resources and adjusts QoS parameters. This dynamic approach maintains operational simplicity through automated detection and adjustment while significantly improving QoS efficiency for mixed voice and data services compared to static uniform control.

AI summary
A wireless communication network controls wireless base stations that serve wireless relays that serve wireless User Equipment (UEs). In a relay control system, data transceivers receive configuration data that was transferred by the wireless relays and that indicates their individual wireless media services. Relay control circuitry allocates individual carrier aggregation Quality-of-Service (QoS) levels to the individual wireless relays based on the individual wireless media services. The relay transceivers transfer the individual carrier aggregation QoS levels for the individual wireless relays to the wireless base stations. The wireless base stations serve the wireless relays with the individual carrier aggregation QoS levels. The wireless relays serve the wireless UEs with the wireless media services.
