Terminal Resource Allocation Mode Selection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The increasing demand for higher transmission rates and larger bandwidths in wireless communications systems leads to reduced network coverage, resulting in fewer users sharing a large bandwidth, which complicates resource allocation and affects system performance.
Innovation Solution
A method for determining a resource allocation mode, where a terminal device can select from multiple modes, including resource scheduling by a network device and independent resource selection by the terminal device, based on assistance information and local information to optimize resource usage.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Power
If the wireless communications system operates on increasingly high spectrum with larger bandwidth to meet user demand for higher transmission rates, then the transmission rate is improved, but the network coverage is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic resource allocation mode selection where terminal devices can switch between network-scheduled mode and autonomous selection mode based on real-time network conditions. This dynamic adaptation allows the system to optimize between coverage and transmission rate requirements by selecting the appropriate mode depending on whether the terminal is in covered or uncovered areas
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the operational parameter of resource allocation from fixed network-scheduled to flexible mode-selection based on network coverage status. By monitoring network coverage conditions and adjusting the allocation mode accordingly, the system can maintain high transmission rates in covered areas while enabling autonomous operation in uncovered areas, thus resolving the coverage-rate tradeoff
2Power
If the number of users sharing a large bandwidth within network coverage declines, then the transmission rate per user is improved, but the resource allocation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables terminal devices to autonomously select resources from a resource pool without requiring continuous network scheduling. This self-service mechanism reduces the complexity of resource allocation by allowing terminals to independently manage their own resource selection based on local conditions, thereby simplifying the overall system complexity while maintaining high transmission rates
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the resource allocation process into two distinct modes: network-scheduled mode for covered areas and autonomous selection mode for uncovered areas. This segmentation allows the system to handle different user scenarios with appropriate complexity levels, reducing overall resource allocation complexity by applying simplified autonomous selection where network scheduling would be overly complex
