Solution Overview

Problem

Existing wireless communication systems face challenges in meeting strict latency requirements for applications like extended Reality (XR), co-presence, and cloud gaming under dynamic radio conditions and congested resources, particularly with the advent of semantic communication.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a service-optimized representation structure and application-optimized transport block (TB) to manage data flow, using semantic communications that transmit semantic representations or metadata rather than actual data, and incorporating a hierarchical protocol data unit (PDU) structure to prioritize and encode data blocks based on their relevance and dependencies.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of time

If traditional data transmission methods are used, then data完整性 is maintained, but transmission latency increases and throughput decreases under congested conditions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission latencyVSAvoiddata completeness
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments data into hierarchical PDU structures with different priority levels (first PDU set with first priority, second PDU set with second priority). This segmentation allows critical data to be transmitted and processed separately from less critical data, reducing overall transmission latency while maintaining data completeness through structured reassembly at the receiver.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by assigning different priority levels and handling characteristics to different portions of the data stream. High-priority PDUs receive preferential treatment in scheduling and resource allocation, while lower-priority PDUs are handled differently, optimizing overall system performance without compromising the integrity of critical information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Productivity

If all data is transmitted with equal priority, then data completeness is ensured, but throughput efficiency decreases under heavy traffic

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvethroughput efficiencyVSAvoiddata completeness
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides data into multiple PDU sets with different priority levels (first PDU set, second PDU set, etc.). This segmentation enables the system to prioritize transmission of critical data segments while efficiently managing less critical segments, thereby improving overall throughput efficiency without losing any information, as all segments are eventually transmitted and reassembled.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic priority-based scheduling where the handling of data packets varies based on their assigned priority level. High-priority PDUs are scheduled for transmission before low-priority PDUs, and resource allocation is dynamically adjusted based on priority, enabling efficient throughput under heavy traffic while ensuring complete data delivery.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Loss of time

If data is prioritized by relevance, then latency is reduced for critical data, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelatency for critical dataVSAvoidpriority management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments data into hierarchical PDU sets with assigned priority levels, creating a structured framework for priority management. This segmentation provides clear rules for scheduling and resource allocation based on priority, reducing the complexity of making individual decisions about each data packet while still achieving low latency for critical data through systematic preferential handling of high-priority PDUs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
