Traffic Plane Function for Wireless QoS Configuration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional wireless communication systems lack efficient mechanisms for initiating and managing quality of service (QoS) configuration, particularly in multiple-access systems, which limits the utilization of channel information and resource allocation for improved performance.
Innovation Solution
The implementation of a traffic plane function within wireless communication systems allows for the establishment of QoS configuration, enabling network entities to initiate and manage QoS settings through a traffic plane function, facilitating efficient resource allocation and improved communication performance.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If conventional wireless communication systems are used without traffic plane function, then system simplicity is maintained, but quality of service configuration and resource allocation efficiency deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a traffic plane function as an intermediary component between network entities and QoS configuration mechanisms. This mediator establishes signaling connections that enable efficient QoS configuration and resource allocation without requiring fundamental changes to the existing wireless communication architecture, thus improving productivity while controlling the increase in device complexity.
2Productivity
If QoS configuration mechanisms are added to wireless communication systems, then spectral efficiency and throughput are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The traffic plane function is designed as a universal mechanism that can initiate and manage multiple types of QoS configurations across different network entities. By creating a multi-functional signaling framework, the system achieves improved spectral efficiency and throughput through comprehensive QoS management without proportionally increasing device complexity, as the same traffic plane function handles various QoS scenarios.
3Reliability
If traffic plane function is established for QoS configuration, then resource reservation capability is improved, but signaling overhead increases
Solution Approach 1:
The traffic plane function enables preliminary QoS configuration and resource reservation before actual data transmission occurs. By establishing QoS parameters and reserving resources in advance through signaling, the system improves resource reservation capability and reliability. The preliminary action allows resources to be pre-allocated and configured, reducing the need for extensive signaling during active transmission phases.

AI summary
Quality of service information can be used to facilitate wireless communication. A network entity, such as a terminal, as well as a network can initialize an authorization to establish a link using quality of service information. Various features can be integrated with the use of quality of service information, such as having quality of service reservation before a call and supplying a permanent identity for use in correlation.
