Solution Overview

Problem

The content recorded and reported in cases of RACH failure/success in the related RRC access procedure does not meet the requirements of 5G and subsequent communication systems, leading to unreliable communication.

Innovation Solution

An information reporting method is introduced, where a terminal obtains the execution result of a target procedure (connection establishment, connection resume, or system information request) and sends report information to a network device. This report information includes type, beam, resource, cell, location, and time-related details, enabling comprehensive data collection.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the terminal uses the traditional RACH failure/success reporting method in LTE, then the reporting content is limited to basic RACH information, but it does not meet the requirements of 5G and subsequent communication systems

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to 5G and subsequent systemsVSAvoidcommunication reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the reporting information into multiple distinct categories including beam information, resource information, cell information, location information, and time information. This segmentation allows the system to collect and report comprehensive 5G-required parameters while maintaining clear organization and processing of each information type, thereby achieving adaptability to 5G requirements without compromising reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extends the reporting framework from traditional LTE dimensions to include new dimensions required by 5G systems. Specifically, it adds beam-level information (a new dimension in 5G architecture), resource information dimensions, location dimensions, and time dimensions. This dimensional expansion enables the system to meet 5G requirements while maintaining comprehensive monitoring for reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Reliability

If the terminal reports comprehensive information including beam, resource, cell, location and time data, then the communication reliability is improved, but the reporting complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication reliabilityVSAvoidreporting complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a universal reporting framework that can handle multiple types of information (beam, resource, cell, location, time) through a single standardized structure. This multi-functional approach allows the terminal to report comprehensive 5G-required information while using a unified reporting mechanism, thereby improving reliability without proportionally increasing complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary organization and collection of reporting information before actual transmission. The terminal pre-processes and structures beam information, resource information, cell information, location information, and time information in advance, making the actual reporting process more efficient and less complex despite the comprehensive nature of the data being reported.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
