Terminal Capability Feedback for Adaptive Radio Resource Scheduling
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current network devices cannot perform scheduling based on the actual processing capabilities of terminal devices, leading to inefficiencies and potential malfunction due to mismatched resource allocation.
Innovation Solution
Terminal devices report their processing capabilities to the network, enabling adaptive scheduling that aligns with their actual capabilities, ensuring normal operation within their capability range.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If the network device performs scheduling without knowing terminal device capabilities, then scheduling can be performed, but the scheduling may exceed terminal capability and cause malfunction
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal device feeds back its processing capability information to the network device through uplink signaling. The network device uses this feedback to adjust scheduling decisions, ensuring scheduled resources match the terminal's actual processing capability and avoiding scheduling failures
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal device reports its processing capability information to the network device before scheduling occurs. This preliminary action allows the network device to plan and execute scheduling decisions that are guaranteed to be within the terminal's capability range
2Productivity
If the terminal device reports capability information, then scheduling can be optimized to match capability, but signaling overhead increases
Solution Approach 1:
The capability information reporting is extracted as a separate, optional feature. Only terminal devices that support enhanced processing capabilities report this information, while other terminals use default scheduling. This reduces overall signaling overhead in the network
Solution Approach 2:
The capability information is represented using compact parameter encoding (e.g., capability levels or processing capability indicators). This parameter-based representation reduces the amount of signaling data compared to detailed capability descriptions

AI summary
A resource configuration method and an apparatus are disclosed, to resolve a technical problem that a base station cannot perform scheduling based on an actual capability of a terminal device. A method includes: receiving capability information from a terminal device, where the capability information of the terminal device includes information about a first processing capability supported by the terminal device; and determining, based on the capability information of the terminal device, first processing capability configuration information of at least one frequency band used for the terminal device. The terminal device may report the capability information of the terminal device, so that the first processing capability configuration information of the at least one frequency band can be determined based on the capability information of the terminal device. In other words, scheduling can be performed based on the capability information of the terminal device, so that a scheduling result adapts to the capability information of the terminal device, thereby ensuring, as much as possible, that the terminal device can normally work within a capability range.
