Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional LTE systems struggle with low spectrum efficiency and delayed demodulation, which cannot meet the rapid feedback requirements of 5G services like Ultra Reliable and Low Latency Communication (URLLC).

Innovation Solution

The method involves dividing a Transport Block (TB) into a first part and at least one second part, with the first part undergoing complex coding and interleaving for improved demodulation performance, and the second part undergoing simple coding to reduce feedback delay, allowing for rapid demodulation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If data is transmitted without authentication and integrity check, then transmission overhead is reduced, but data security and reliability deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission efficiencyVSAvoiddata security
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The authentication and data transmission are segmented into separate stages. Authentication information (first information) is transmitted in a dedicated authentication stage, while actual data is transmitted in subsequent stages. This segmentation allows security verification to be performed separately without blocking data transmission flow, maintaining both security and efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Authentication is performed as a preliminary action before data transmission. The receiving end verifies the transmitter's identity using the first information received in advance during the authentication stage. This preliminary verification ensures data security before the actual data transmission begins, preventing unauthorized access without adding overhead to the data transmission itself.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If authentication information is transmitted frequently, then security verification is improved, but transmission overhead increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveauthentication reliabilityVSAvoidtransmission efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

Authentication is performed periodically at predetermined intervals rather than continuously or with every data packet. The method establishes an authentication mechanism that repeats at specific time intervals or after certain conditions are met, ensuring security verification occurs regularly without creating excessive transmission overhead between authentication cycles.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

Solution Approach 2:

Authentication information is prepared and transmitted in advance during dedicated authentication stages, allowing the system to enter efficient data transmission modes between authentication cycles. This preliminary authentication approach ensures security is established before data transmission begins, reducing the need for frequent authentication interruptions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Speed

If data is transmitted in original format without processing, then transmission speed is improved, but security vulnerabilities increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission speedVSAvoidsecurity attacks
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

Authentication information acts as an intermediary mechanism between the transmitter and receiver. This intermediary element (first information) enables the receiver to verify the transmitter's identity and intent before processing the actual data, providing a security layer that doesn't require modifying the data format itself. The intermediary authentication layer blocks harmful factors while allowing legitimate fast transmission to proceed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The transmission process is segmented into authentication phase and data transmission phase. During the authentication phase, security verification is performed using the first information. Once authenticated, data transmission proceeds in the original format at high speed during the data transmission phase. This segmentation allows security checks to be performed separately without slowing down the actual data transmission.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
