Solution Overview

Problem

Existing communication systems face challenges in efficiently regulating Quality of Service (QoS) data flows and Data Radio Bearers (DRBs) for big data services, particularly for neural network models, which require timely adjustments to meet transmission requirements.

Innovation Solution

A method for transmitting data that involves a terminal device determining to activate a first DRB and transmitting target data on that DRB, where the DRB is selected based on a data processing manner or the number of layers processed by the terminal device, allowing for dynamic adjustment of QoS and DRB mapping.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the terminal sends a request message to modify QoS parameters through the core network, then the QoS parameter modification can be achieved, but the modification process is complex and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveQoS parameter modificationVSAvoidmodification process
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the QoS parameter modification function from the core network to the terminal device itself. The terminal autonomously determines and switches between different QoS data flows based on its current buffer status and processing capabilities, eliminating the need for complex network-side modification procedures while maintaining reliable QoS control.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The terminal device performs self-service by autonomously monitoring its buffer status and processing capabilities, then automatically selecting appropriate QoS data flows without requiring network intervention. This self-service mechanism simplifies the modification process while ensuring reliable QoS parameter adaptation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Adaptability or versatility

If the terminal regulates to a suitable QoS data flow and DRB for big data services, then the transmission requirements can be met, but the regulation process becomes complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission requirement adaptationVSAvoidregulation process
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic regulation by enabling the terminal to continuously monitor its buffer status and processing capabilities, then automatically switch between pre-configured QoS data flows with different characteristics. This dynamic adaptation allows the system to meet varying transmission requirements without complex regulation procedures, as the terminal simply selects from available options based on current conditions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple QoS data flows with different characteristics are configured, then the adaptability to different transmission scenarios is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission scenario coverageVSAvoidQoS flow management
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the QoS management by dividing data flows into distinct categories with specific characteristics (e.g., different packet loss rates, delays, or throughput guarantees). The terminal monitors its buffer status and selectively activates appropriate segmented flows based on current transmission requirements, simplifying management by treating each flow category independently rather than managing a monolithic QoS system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
