Solution Overview

Problem

Current wireless communication systems face challenges in efficiently managing and securing drone communication, particularly in scenarios requiring uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV)-dedicated resources for aerial to everything (A2X) communication.

Innovation Solution

The method involves determining whether a UAV-dedicated resource pool is configured and usable for terminal identifier broadcast (BRID) or collision detection and collision avoidance (DAA) in a wireless communication system. Based on this determination, the appropriate resource pool is selected and allocated for transmitting UAV service messages.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If UAV-dedicated resource pool is configured and used for A2X communication, then security and reliability of drone communication is improved, but device complexity and resource management overhead increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecurity of drone communicationVSAvoidresource management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The resource pool is segmented into UAV-dedicated resources and general resources. The terminal determines whether a UAV-dedicated resource pool is configured and selectively uses it for A2X communication, thereby isolating drone traffic from general traffic to enhance security while maintaining manageable complexity through structured resource division.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different resource pools are allocated for different communication purposes: UAV-dedicated resource pool for aerial-to-everything communication and general resource pool for other communications. This local differentiation ensures that critical drone communications receive dedicated resources with appropriate security measures, while avoiding unnecessary complexity in non-UAV scenarios.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Productivity

If terminal determines and selects appropriate resource pool based on message type, then communication efficiency is improved, but processing time and operational complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication efficiencyVSAvoidoperational simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The terminal performs preliminary determination of whether a UAV-dedicated resource pool is configured before actual communication. This advance preparation allows the terminal to establish the appropriate resource pool selection criteria in advance, improving communication efficiency by avoiding last-minute resource allocation decisions while maintaining operational simplicity through pre-established rules.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The terminal dynamically selects between UAV-dedicated resource pool and general resource pool based on the communication scenario and message type. This dynamic adaptation optimizes communication efficiency for different scenarios (A2X communication versus other communications) while the selection follows deterministic rules that maintain operational simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
