Solution Overview

Problem

Existing wireless communication systems face inefficiencies due to interference issues, particularly cross-link interference (CLI), which arise from unsynchronized uplink and downlink transmissions, leading to resource waste and suboptimal user equipment (UE) performance.

Innovation Solution

The terminal device determines a specific first frequency domain resource within a pre-configured resource block (RB) range for interference measurement or received energy measurement, optimizing the use of frequency domain resources by avoiding unnecessary waste.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If interference measurement or received energy measurement is performed over the whole bandwidth, then measurement accuracy is improved, but frequency domain resource waste increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemeasurement accuracyVSAvoidfrequency domain resource waste
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the entire bandwidth into multiple frequency domain resources (first frequency domain resource and second frequency domain resource). The terminal device performs interference measurement or received energy measurement only on the first frequency domain resource, which is a segment of the total bandwidth. This segmentation approach maintains measurement accuracy on the critical resource while avoiding unnecessary measurements on other resources, thus reducing frequency domain resource waste.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If the terminal device performs measurements over the whole bandwidth, then measurement reliability is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemeasurement reliabilityVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the bandwidth into multiple frequency domain resources and configures different measurement parameters for each segment. The terminal device applies different measurement configurations to different segments based on their specific characteristics, which simplifies the overall measurement process while maintaining reliability through targeted measurements on each segment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements partial measurement action by performing interference measurement or received energy measurement only on the first frequency domain resource rather than the entire bandwidth. This partial action approach maintains sufficient measurement reliability for the critical resource while reducing device complexity by avoiding unnecessary measurements on other resources.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
