Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of energy
If separate designs of wireless communication and sensing systems are used, then system independence is maintained, but resource wastage and increased signaling overhead occur
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines wireless communication and sensing functions into a unified system where the same transmission resources are used for both purposes. The base station transmits sensing signals that serve dual purposes: enabling sensing measurements at user equipment while also functioning as communication signals. This merging eliminates the need for separate dedicated sensing resources, reducing resource wastage while maintaining system functionality through integrated resource allocation and reporting mechanisms.
2Loss of information
If multiple sensing results are transmitted separately, then complete sensing information is provided, but signaling overhead increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple sensing result reports into unified reporting structures. Instead of transmitting each sensing result separately through dedicated signaling channels, the system combines multiple sensing measurements into consolidated reports that are transmitted using shared uplink resources. This approach maintains complete sensing information while significantly reducing signaling overhead by eliminating redundant transmission protocols and utilizing efficient resource allocation for aggregated reporting.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements universal transmission resources that serve multiple functions simultaneously. The same uplink resources are used for both communication data transmission and sensing result reporting, eliminating the need for separate dedicated signaling channels. This multi-functional resource usage reduces signaling overhead while ensuring complete sensing information is transmitted through the unified reporting mechanism.
3Measurement precision
If dedicated sensing resources are allocated, then sensing accuracy is maintained, but resource consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges sensing signal transmission with communication signal transmission, using the same downlink resources for both purposes. The base station transmits signals that simultaneously serve as communication signals and sensing signals, allowing user equipment to perform sensing measurements on the same resources used for communication. This approach maintains sensing accuracy through proper signal design and processing while significantly reducing resource consumption by eliminating dedicated sensing resource allocations.
