Solution Overview

Problem

Network devices are unable to determine whether user equipment (UE) supports computing power sharing, preventing effective utilization and configuration of UE computing power.

Innovation Solution

UE sends a session request message to a network device with capability information indicating its computing power sharing support and parameters, enabling the network device to utilize UE computing power accordingly.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the network device does not obtain capability information from the UE, then the session request message is simple and fast to process, but the network device cannot determine whether the UE supports computing power sharing and cannot perform relevant configurations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecapability information accuracyVSAvoidsession request message complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The UE reports capability information in advance within the session request message, enabling the network device to determine computing power sharing support and perform relevant configurations before actual computing power sharing occurs. This preliminary action ensures reliability while maintaining message structure efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The capability information acts as an intermediary element that bridges the gap between the UE and network device, carrying essential information about computing power sharing support without requiring complex separate negotiation protocols. This intermediary approach resolves the contradiction by providing necessary information within the existing message framework.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If the UE does not report computing power parameters, then the session request message is smaller and faster to transmit, but the network device cannot effectively utilize or share the UE computing power

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomputing power utilization efficiencyVSAvoidmessage data volume
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The UE includes computing power parameters in the session request message in advance, allowing the network device to effectively utilize and share computing power without requiring additional message exchanges. This preliminary inclusion of parameters ensures productivity while keeping the message structure efficient.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The session request message serves multiple functions: establishing the session, conveying capability information, and providing computing power parameters all in one transmission. This multi-functionality approach maximizes productivity without proportionally increasing message data volume.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Loss of energy

If the network device cannot obtain capability information, then the system operation is simple, but resource utilization is low and computing cost is high

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomputing costVSAvoidsystem operation simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The capability information and computing power parameters are reported in advance within the session request message, enabling the network device to optimize resource allocation and computing power sharing configurations before actual operations. This preliminary information exchange reduces computing cost while maintaining system operation simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The UE provides feedback about its computing power capabilities through the session request message, enabling the network device to make informed decisions about resource allocation and computing power sharing. This feedback mechanism reduces computing cost by avoiding unnecessary computations and optimizing resource utilization without significantly complicating system operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
