Solution Overview

Problem

In TDD communication systems, the reuse of uplink time unit transmission parameters in subband full duplex (SBFD) time units leads to reduced UCI transmission reliability and affected communication efficiency due to channel environment and interference differences.

Innovation Solution

A communication method that involves determining code rate compensation parameters based on N sets of first indexes for SBFD time units and P sets of second indexes for uplink time units, allowing for adaptive code rate compensation to improve UCI transmission reliability and efficiency.

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by differentiating parameter configuration between different time unit types. Specifically, it configures separate code rate compensation parameters for SBFD time units and uplink time units, allowing each type to have optimized parameters tailored to its specific channel characteristics and interference environment, thereby improving UCI transmission reliability without requiring complete parameter redundancy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements parameter changes by introducing different code rate compensation parameters (first parameter for SBFD time units, second parameter for uplink time units) that adapt to the specific channel environments and interference characteristics of each time unit type, enabling optimized transmission performance for each scenario
