Solution Overview

Problem

Current communication technologies lack the ability to sense and coordinate the collaboration relationship between different services transmitted independently by multiple User Equipment (UE) in scenarios like live shopping and concerts, leading to difficulties in meeting strict synchronization and transmission power coordination requirements.

Innovation Solution

A service processing method and apparatus that perform collaboration processing on data from multiple services of multiple terminals, based on their association relationships, and transmit this processed data over a radio resource. This involves a common function layer, such as the Service Data Adaptation Protocol (SDAP) layer, that numbers and processes service data according to timing and power relationships, ensuring synchronized transmission.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If independent service transmission between multiple UEs is used, then transmission flexibility is improved, but synchronization and coordination capability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission flexibilityVSAvoidsynchronization capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a network-side coordination mechanism that acts as an intermediary between multiple UEs. The network collects association relationship information from terminals and uses this to coordinate transmission parameters (timing, power, resources) across different services, enabling synchronization without requiring direct terminal-to-terminal coordination.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where terminals report their service data characteristics and association relationships to the network, and the network uses this feedback information to dynamically adjust transmission scheduling and resource allocation, ensuring coordinated transmission while maintaining flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Ease of operation

If network schedules each UE as a unit, then scheduling simplicity is improved, but service coordination precision deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescheduling simplicityVSAvoidservice coordination precision
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the service data into different types based on association relationships (e.g., video streams, control signals, coordination messages). This segmentation allows the network to apply different scheduling strategies to different service types while maintaining overall simplicity in the scheduling process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by treating different services with different coordination requirements differently. Services with strict synchronization needs receive enhanced coordination, while services with flexible timing requirements receive standard scheduling, optimizing both precision and simplicity for each service type.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Device complexity

If no association relationship sensing is implemented, then system complexity is reduced, but collaboration requirement fulfillment deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem complexityVSAvoidcollaboration fulfillment
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The network acts as an intermediary that collects and processes association relationship information from terminals. This centralizes the complexity in the network rather than requiring each terminal to independently sense and coordinate, maintaining terminal simplicity while achieving reliable collaboration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements preliminary action by having terminals report their service characteristics and association relationships to the network in advance. The network uses this pre-collected information to pre-configure transmission parameters and resource allocation, reducing real-time processing complexity while ensuring collaboration requirements are met.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
