Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In communication systems, such as 5G and 6G, the mechanism for transmitter switching (Tx switching) is not effectively reported, leading to poor transmission performance due to lack of clear information on terminal capabilities for Tx switching.
Innovation Solution
A method for reporting and receiving capability information related to Tx switching, including support for parallel and serial Tx switching, and the maximum number of switches within a preset period, to improve transmission performance by enabling informed terminal behavior.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If Tx switching mechanism is implemented without clear capability reporting, then transmitter switching functionality is provided, but transmission performance deteriorates due to lack of capability information
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal performs capability reporting in advance before Tx switching operations. The capability information including parallel/serial switching support and maximum switching times is reported beforehand, allowing the network to configure appropriate switching parameters without real-time negotiation, thus ensuring reliable transmission performance.
2Reliability
If detailed capability information is reported, then transmission performance is improved, but signaling overhead increases
Solution Approach 1:
The capability information is segmented into distinct parameters: parallel Tx switching capability, serial Tx switching capability, and maximum switching times within preset period. This segmentation allows selective reporting based on what the network actually needs, reducing unnecessary signaling overhead while maintaining transmission performance.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms complex Tx switching capabilities into discrete reportable parameters. By changing the representation from general capability descriptions to specific parameters (parallel/serial support, maximum switching times), the system achieves precise capability communication with minimal overhead.
3Productivity
If Tx switching capability is not clearly defined, then system complexity is reduced, but transmission efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent defines Tx switching capability through specific parameters: support for parallel switching, support for serial switching, and maximum switching times within preset periods. This parameter-based definition improves transmission efficiency by enabling precise capability matching while keeping the definition manageable through standardization.
Solution Approach 2:
The capability reporting mechanism is designed to be universal, supporting both parallel and serial Tx switching modes through a single standardized interface. This multi-functionality approach improves transmission efficiency across different scenarios without requiring separate complex definition mechanisms for each switching type.
