Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements feedback by detecting interference conditions on shared time-frequency resources and using this information to determine appropriate resource offsets. This feedback mechanism enables reliable transmission on congested channels without requiring complex resource management, as the system automatically adjusts based on real-time interference detection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary approach by using resource offset configuration as a mediator between the simple shared resource structure and the need for reliable transmission. The offset mechanism acts as a mediator that translates interference conditions into actionable resource reallocation, maintaining simplicity while ensuring reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Reliability

If resource offset is applied to eliminate interference, then transmission quality is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the time-frequency resource into discrete units that can be independently offset. This segmentation allows the system to manage complexity through modular resource allocation while improving transmission quality, as each segmented resource can be independently optimized based on interference conditions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements preliminary action by pre-configuring resource offset mechanisms before interference occurs. The system establishes offset capabilities in advance, allowing quick response to interference conditions without requiring complex real-time computation, thus improving transmission quality while limiting complexity increase to pre-established parameters.

Inventive Principle:
